On April 30, 711, the armies of Tariq landed at Gibraltar (the name Gibraltar is derived from the Arabic name Jabal al-Tariq, which means mountain of Tariq). Upon landing, Tariq is said to have burned his ships then made the following speech, well-known in the Muslim world, to his soldiers:\n\n    أيّها الناس، أين المفر؟ البحر من ورائكم، والعدوّ أمامكم، وليس لكم والله إلا الصدق والصبر...\n    O People ! There is nowhere to run away! The sea is behind you, and the enemy in front of you: There is nothing for you, by God, except only sincerity and patience. (as recounted by al-Maqqari).\n\nThe Moorish armies swept through Hispania and, in the summer of 711, won a decisive victory when the Visigoth king, Roderic, was defeated and killed on July 19th at the Battle of Guadalete. Afterwards, Tariq was made governor of Hispania but eventually was called back to Damascus by the Umayyad Caliph Walid I because he did not authorize the Muslim invasion of Spain.

Hi captain, I have got some thing for you which goes down to early history.\n\n" Charles only spared the lives of those Saracens[Muslims] who consented to be baptised, the rest he put to the sword."--[History of Charles the Great and Orlando, by Turpin, Vol-I, ch-ii, pg-5]\n\n"....460 years later, when the Holy land reverted to the Christian rule of crusading knight of Europe, the oriental Christians regretted the tolerating Govt. of the Arabian Khalifs."--[Rise and Fall of Roman Empire- GIBBON]\n\n"....A bloody sacrifies was offered by mistaken votaries to the God of the Christian resistance might provoke, but neither sage nor sex could mollify, thier implacable rage, they indulged themselves 3 days in a promisenous massacre. After 70,000 muslims had been put to the sword and the harmless JEWS had been burned in thier Synogogue, they could still reserve a multitude of captives whom interest or lassitude persauded them to spare."--[Rise and Fall of Roman Empire- GIBBON]\n\nThe critical Gibbon coclusively proves that, "...to his Christian subjects, Mohammad readily granted security of thier persons, the freedom of thier trade, the property of thier goods and the toleration of thier worship. This profitable principle of toleration was observed with more or less strictness, not only by all the immediate successors of the Prophet, but over the whole period of Arabic ascendency."--[Rise and Fall of Roman Empire- GIBBON] \n\nOn the other hand..........\n\n"....when Jerusalem capitulated to Khalif Omer, the inhabitants of the vanquished city were left in possesion of thier worldly goods, and allowed the freedom of worship. A special quarter of the city was allotted for the residence of Christian population with thier Patriarch and his clergy."--\n[Rise and Fall of Roman Empire- GIBBON]\n\n"....And Islam was tolerant not simply to the Jews but also to the Christians. The Christian church in muslim Spain was given large lands and considerable revenues, christian envoys were recieved with courtesy and allowed to take away relics of christian saints and martyrs from the muslim territory. GIBBON says in his Decline and Fall [of Roman Empire], that muslim rulers even transcribed an Arabic version of the canons of the councils of Spain for the use of BISHOPS in the Moorish kingdom. Haroon al-Rashid, the hero of the "Arabian Nights", planted in his kingdom a large number of schools, the head of these schools, his Director of Education, was a chritian named John."--[ The Spirit and Struggle of Islam by Prof. T.L.Vaswani, Ganesh & Co., Madras-1921]\n\nYou can judge it yourself as to whether muslims inflicted more violence or the Christians ? \n\nAnd you know about modern history and who is responsible for killing lacs of people in Hiroshoma and Nagasaki, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan..

A little of both.  A hero when he lead his people to control of their own country in his younger days.  But as happens frequently around the world....power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Because he seems to be a bit primitive for a 21st century presedent. We aren't barberians anymore.he called himself a "war presedent", why would any civilised person with good morals follow such barberic ways?

Muhammad was born a poor peasant. But so the help of his powerful uncle and later his rich wife, he was a successful merchant until he was 40. That's when he started having visions and hearing things in his own personal cave that lead to the Koran. He converted a few people in his hometown to his new religion.\n\n  When the local government offered a reward for his head on a platter, he reasonably moved, with his followers, to a nearby city where his religion was much more warmly excepted and he was made ruler of the city. The Koran was made law and he became a unofficial king. His visions for the Koran continued through all this.\n  When his former residing place went to war with his city, his Koran visions started approving war. (This has lead to people like Osama Bin Laden who use the Koran as an excuse to kill millions of people) Muhammad died at age 82, having his last vision to complete the Koran right before be died.

The division happened after Muhammad's death.\n\n17 The prophet’s death provoked a crisis. He died without any male progeny and without a clearly designated successor. As Philip Hitti states: “The caliphate [office of caliph] is therefore the oldest problem Islam had to face. It is still a living issue. . . . In the words of Muslim historian al-Shahrastani [1086-1153]: ‘Never was there an Islamic issue which brought about more bloodshed than the caliphate (imamah).’” How was the problem solved back there in 632 C.E.? “Abu-Bakr . . . was designated (June 8, 632) Muhammad’s successor by some form of election in which those leaders present at the capital, al-Madinah, took part.”—History of the Arabs.\n\n18 The successor to the prophet would be a ruler, a khalifah, or caliph. However, the question of the true successors to Muhammad became a cause for divisions in the ranks of Islam. The Sunni Muslims accept the principle of elective office rather than blood descent from the prophet. Therefore they believe that the first three caliphs, Abu Bakr (Muhammad’s father-in-law), `Umar (the prophet’s adviser), and `Uthman (the prophet’s son-in-law), were the legitimate successors to Muhammad.\n\n19 That claim is contested by the Shi`ite Muslims, who say that the true leadership comes through the prophet’s blood line and through his cousin and son-in-law, `Ali ibn Abi Talib, the first imam (leader and successor), who married Muhammad’s favorite daughter, Fatimah. Their marriage produced Muhammad’s grandsons Hasan and Husayn. The Shi`ites also claim “that from the beginning Allah and His Prophet had clearly designated `Ali as the only legitimate successor but that the first three caliphs had cheated him out of his rightful office.” (History of the Arabs) Of course, the Sunni Muslims view that differently.\n\n20 What happened to `Ali? During his rule as the fourth caliph (656-661 C.E.), a struggle over leadership arose between him and the governor of Syria, Mu`awiyah. They joined battle, and then to spare further Muslim bloodshed, they threw their dispute open to arbitration. `Ali’s acceptance of arbitration weakened his case and alienated many of his followers, including the Khawarij (Seceders), who became his deadly foes. In the year 661 C.E., `Ali was murdered with a poisoned sabre by a Khariji zealot. The two groups (the Sunni and the Shi`ah) were at loggerheads. The Sunni branch of Islam then chose a leader from the Umayyads, wealthy Meccan chiefs, who were outside of the prophet’s family.\n\n21 For the Shi`ah, `Ali’s firstborn, Hasan, the prophet’s grandson, was the true successor. However, he resigned and was murdered. His brother Husayn became the new imam, but he too was killed, by Umayyad troops on October 10, 680 C.E. His death or martyrdom, as the Shi`ah view it, has had a significant effect on the Shi`at `Ali, the party of `Ali, down to this day. They believe that `Ali was the true successor to Muhammad and the first “imam [leader] divinely protected against error and sin.” `Ali and his successors were considered by the Shi`ah to be infallible teachers with “the divine gift of impeccability.” The largest segment of the Shi`ah believe that there have been only 12 true imams, and the last of these, Muhammad al-Muntazar, disappeared (878 C.E.) “in the cave of the great mosque at Samarra without leaving offspring.” Thus “he became ‘the hidden (mustatir)’ or ‘the expected (muntazar) imam.’ . . . In due time he will appear as the Mahdi (divinely guided one) to restore true Islam, conquer the whole world and usher in a short millennium before the end of all things.”—History of the Arabs.\n\n22 Every year, the Shi`ah commemorate the martyrdom of Imam Husayn. They have processions in which some cut themselves with knives and swords and otherwise inflict suffering on themselves. In more modern times, Shi`ite Muslims have received much publicity because o

My dear, your questions proves the way you have been brought up. It also proves the hate to the truth, which normally all the sense-less people have. \n\nWith regards to the lineage of our beloved prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), there are three versions, First of which was authenticated by biographer & genealogists that His geneology has been traced until Prophet Adnan, the second version links Him until Prophet Abraham, the third version links Him until Prophet Adam. \n\nBy the way, one of your community guy has written a book called "100 most succesful leaders the world has ever seen" has kept our beloved prophet in First position and explains the reason:\n"My choice of Muhammad to lead the list of the world's most influential persons may surprise some readers and may be questioned by others, but he was the only man in history who was supremely successful on both the religious and secular levels. Of humble origins, Muhammad established and promulgated one of the world's great religions, and became an immensely effective political leader. Today, thirteen centuries after his death, his influence is still powerful and pervasive. The majority of the persons in this book had the advantage of being born and raised in centers of civilization, highly cultured or politically pivotal nations".\n\nIf you need Prophet Muhammed's entire biography, just send me an email and i shall forward it to you, it might change your way of thinking.....

But how about Islamic state, the abassade age for about 500 years, they ruled large state from Baghdad which is very close to babylon and they were anti-christ definitely, do you think? I m still studying bible, so I don't know the whole story. mavbe I'm wrong.   in shiite beliefs, my former beliefs, they expect a man to come and rule the world from Iraq, it seems this taken from bible, but Muslism think that the one who will rule from Babylon is the good one ):

I have to disagree in that Robin of Loxley was a returning Crusade Knight who as you know probably slaughtered many Muslims in his travels. His robbing from the rich and giving to the poor is Myth. He was mostly interested in getting his own expropriated property back from the usurper to the Crown while King Richard the Lion Hearted was being held hostage. Mohammed ( Peace be Upon him ) was a prophet, which is vastly different from the what so-called Robinhood was about.

The Romanian figure he was based on was Count Vladimir Tepisch Dracula.  His father was called the dragon (dracul) and he was the son of the dragon (dracula).\n\nHe is considered a hero in Romanian history for his resistance to the Muslim conquest of Europe.  He was a particularly brutal man though.  After one battle he is said to have impaled 2,000 of the Muslim captives and left them to die, arrayed in the fields around his fortress.  This earned him the nickname "Vlad the impaler".
