Understanding Islam
#5
From Unmasking Muhammad by Sujit Das



E-book published April 28, 2010....



Quote:Jeffrey (cited Warraq, 2000, p. 347) concluded that Margoliouth had done the most brilliant

study of the life of Muhammad that has yet appeared. According to Margoliouth, Muhammad

was a patriot, keenly alive to the opportunities of his time. Islam was created as a method to unite

the Arabs and make them a strong military force. In this process the religious appeal played an

important part but there was also a complete absence of moral scruple. On the success of

Muhammad, Margoliouth commented that Muhammad’ success was dearly not due to the

objective truth of the Qur’an but to his skill as organizer and military leader. Muhammad was

thoroughly familiar with the shortcomings of the Arabs and utilized them to the utmost

advantage and he was able to seize opportunities and distrusted loyalty when not backed by

interest
