MUHAMMAD-THE PROFET OF ISLAM by Professor
K, S, Ramakrishna, University of Mysore, India, 1979.

Sir George Bernard Shaw in ‘The Genuine Islam,’ Vol. 1,
No. 8, 1936 said that: If any
religion had the chance of ruling over England, nay Europe within the next hundred
years, it could be Islam. I have always held the religion of Muhammad in high
estimation because of its wonderful vitality. It is the only religion which
appears to me to possess that assimilating capacity to the changing phase of
existence which can make itself appeal to every age. I have studied him - the
wonderful man and in my opinion far from being an anti-Christ, he must be
called the Savior of Humanity. I believe that if a man like him were to assume
the dictatorship of the modern world he would succeed in solving its problems
in a way that would bring it the much needed peace and happiness: I have
prophesied about the faith of Muhammad that it would be acceptable to the
Europe of tomorrow as it is beginning to be acceptable to the Europe of today.

Thomas Carlyle in
‘Heroes and Hero Worship and the Heroic in History,’ 1840 said that: The
lies (Western slander) that have accumulated around this man (Muhammad) - which
may well mean bigotry, are a shame for us.
Heroes, Hero-Worship and the Heroic in
History, On QUICK REFERENCE
A course of six lectures by T.
Carlyle, delivered 1840, published 1841. In this series Carlyle elaborates his
view that ‘Universal History, the history of what man has accomplished in this
world, is at bottom the History of…Great Men’, and chooses for his examples The
Hero as Divinity (e.g. Odin, the ‘Type Norseman’); The Hero as Prophet (e.g.
Muhammad); The Hero as Poet (e.g. Dante, Shakespeare); The Hero as Priest (e.g.
Luther, Knox); The Hero as Man of Letters (e.g. Dr Johnson, Rousseau, Burns);
and The Hero as King (e.g. Cromwell, Napoleon).

6. ‘Young India,’1924 ‘Young India,’1924 ‘Young
India,’1924 by Mahatma Gandhi, Prominent State Leader
of India said that: I wanted
to know about the life of one of the best people in the world who has an
undisputed place in the hearts of millions of people today. The reason for the
spread of Islam was the Prophet's steadfast simplicity, selflessness, cautious
thinking about the future, selfless devotion to friends and followers, his
unwavering courage, fearlessness, and infinite faith in God and His (Prophet's)
responsibilities. All this has helped the Muslims to overcome all obstacles”.

Dr. William Draper in ‘History of Intellectual Development of Europe.’ He
said that:
“Four years after Justinian's death, in 569 (in Islamic counting 570), a
man was born in Arabia who had the greatest influence on mankind. Being the
religious head of many empires, serving as the guide of the daily life of
one-third of mankind - all these prove the validity of his title as the
messenger of the Creator.

Alphonse de LaMartaine in ‘Historie de la Turquie,’ Paris, 1854 said that: Who would dare to compare Muhammad with any
other great man in history, if the greatness of purpose, the smallness of the
means of attaining the goal, and the astonishing results are the three
characteristics of an extraordinary man? Most celebrities have only created
armies, laws and empires. If they have established something, it is nothing
more than worldly power, which is often shattered before their very eyes.
This man not only led the army, the law, the empire, the rulers, the manpower, but also moved the lives of millions of people in the world at that time;
Muhammad is the
philosopher, the orator, the messenger, the legislator, the inventor of new
ideas / the embodiment of ideas, the restorer of real beliefs… the founder of
twenty worldly and a spiritual empire. Considering the many criteria by which
human excellence is measured, we can ask ourselves - is there anyone better
than Muhammad?

Montgomery Watt in ‘Muhammad at Mecca,’ Oxford, 1953. He
said that:
Enduring all kinds of hardships to establish one's own ideals, the high character traits of those who believed in him and followed him as a leader, and the enormity of Muhammad's achievements - all testify to his honesty. Moreover, no other historical figure like Muhammad has been so underestimated in the West, not only on the basis of what has been narrated, but if we want to understand Muhammad even a little, we must judge him with the necessary honesty and fairness.

D.
G. Hogarth in ‘Arabia’ said that important
or trivial, his every day behavior has created a discipline that millions of
people consciously follow even today. No other human being has been considered
as ideal by any part of mankind and has never been followed as closely as
Muhammad. The conduct of the founder of Christianity did not control the lives
of his followers. Moreover, no founder of any religion has left such a unique
feature to the Muslims as the Prophet.

Title
The penetration of Arabia; a record of the development of
western knowledge concerning the Arabian Peninsula,
Summary
David George Hogarth (1862-1927) was a British
archaeologist and scholar who between 1887 and 1907 worked on excavations in
Cyprus, Greece, and several countries of the Middle East. In 1904 he published
The Penetration of Arabia, a work which, as the subtitle indicates, was an
attempt to chronicle the growth of Western knowledge about the Arabian
Peninsula, rather than a first-hand account based on travel to the region. The
book has two sections. "The Pioneers" analyzes the historical
geography of the region from the time of Claudius Ptolemy (second century), and
includes discussions of explorations by 18th- and early-to-mid-19th-century
travelers such as Carsten Niebuhr (1733-1815) and Domingo Badia y Leblich
(1766-1818). The second section, entitled "The Successors," covers
the travels of mid-19th-century to early 20th-century explorers, including
Richard Francis Burton, Christiaan Snouck Hurgronje, William Gifford Palgrave,
Wilfrid Scawen Blunt, Lady Anne Blunt, and Charles Montague Doughty. The book
is organized not by the explorers, however, but by regions, for example,
"Western Borderlands," "Southern Borderlands," "The
Centre," and so forth. Each chapter ends with a bibliography, and all of
the chapters contain illustrations, maps, or photographs. During World War I,
Hogarth was an associate of T.E. (Thomas Edward) Lawrence (1888-1935), better
known as Lawrence of Arabia, with whom he worked in planning the early stages
of the 1916 Arab Revolt against the Ottoman Turks. World Digital Library.
