Thomas Carlyle in 'Heroes and Hero Worship and the
Heroic in History,' 1840
"The lies (Western slander) which well-meaning
zeal has heaped round this man (Muhammad) are
disgraceful to ourselves only."
A. S. Tritton in 'Islam,' 1951
The picture of the Muslim soldier advancing with a
sword in one hand and the Qur'an in the other is
quite false.
De Lacy O'Leary in 'Islam at the Crossroads,'
London, 1923.
History makes it clear, however, that the legend
of fanatical Muslims sweeping through the world
and forcing Islam at the point of sword upon
conquered races is one of the most fantastically
absurd myths that historians have ever repeated.
Reverend Bosworth Smith in 'Muhammad and
Muhammadanism,' London, 1874.
"Head of the State as well as the Church, he was
Caesar and Pope in one; but he was Pope without
the Pope's pretensions, and Caesar without the
legions of Caesar, without a standing army,
without a bodyguard, without a police force,
without a fixed revenue. If ever a man ruled by a
right divine, it was Muhammad, for he had all the
powers without their supports. He cared not for
the dressings of power. The simplicity of his
private life was in keeping with his public life."
Alphonse de LaMartaine in 'Historie de la
Turquie,' Paris, 1854.
"Philosopher, Orator, Apostle, Legislator,
Conqueror of Ideas, Restorer of Rational
beliefs.... The founder of twenty terrestrial
empires and of one spiritual empire that is
Muhammad. As regards all standards by which human
greatness may be measured, we may well ask, is
there any man greater than he?"
Jules Masserman in 'Who Were Histories Great
Leaders?' in TIME Magazine, July 15, 1974
Perhaps the greatest leader of all times was
Mohammad, who combined all the three functions. To
a lesser degree Moses did the same. Tags : Islam Mohammad Prophet Quran Hadith Jesus Bible paul pagan war trinity greatest man world mercy peace justice revert |
