Alsalam 'alaykom
May Allah be my guide and assistance, to continue from last post:
Allah(SWT) says:
Bismillah Al-Rahman Al-Raheem:
<b></b>
94. And nothing prevented men from believing when the guidance came to them, except that they said: "Has Allâh sent a man as (His) Messenger?"
95. Say: "If there were on the earth, angels walking about in peace and security, We should certainly have sent down for them from the heaven an angel as a Messenger."
96. Say: "Sufficient is Allâh for a witness between me and you. Verily! He is the All-Knower, the All-Seer of His slaves."
97. And he whom Allâh guides, he is led aright; but he whom He sends astray for such you will find no Auliyâ' (helpers and protectors, etc.), besides Him, and We shall gather them together on the Day of Resurrection on their faces, blind, dumb and deaf, their abode will be Hell; whenever it abates, We shall increase for them the fierceness of the Fire.
98. That is their recompense, because they denied Our Ayât
(proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) and said: "When we are bones and fragments, shall we really be raised up as a new creation?"
99. See they not that Allâh, Who created the heavens and the earth, is Able to create the like of them. And He has decreed for them an appointed term, whereof there is not doubt. But the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.) refuse (the truth the Message of Islâmic Monotheism, and accept nothing) but disbelief.
105. And with truth We have sent it down (i.e. the Qur'ân), and with truth it has descended. And We have sent you (O Muhammad ) as nothing but a bearer of glad tidings (of Paradise, for those who follow your Message of Islâmic Monotheism), and a warner (of Hell-fire for those who refuse to follow your Message of Islâmic Monotheism).
106. And (it is) a Qur'ân which We have divided (into parts), in order that you might recite it to men at intervals. And We have revealed it by stages. (in 23 years).
107. Say (O Muhammad to them): "Believe in it (the Qur'ân) or do not believe (in it)
. Verily! Those who were given knowledge before it (the Jews and the Christians like 'Abdullâh bin Salâm and Salmân Al-Farisî), when it is recited to them, fall down on their faces in humble prostration."
108. And they say: "Glory be to our Lord! Truly, the Promise of our Lord must be fulfilled."
109. And they fall down on their faces weeping and it adds to their humility.
110. Say (O Muhammad ): "Invoke Allâh or invoke the Most Beneficent (Allâh), by whatever name you invoke Him (it is the same), for to Him belong the Best Names. And offer your Salât (prayer) neither aloud nor in a low voice, but follow a way between.
111. And say: "All the praises and thanks be to Allâh, Who has not begotten a son (nor an offspring), and Who has no partner in (His) Dominion, nor He is low to have a Walî (helper, protector or supporter).
And magnify Him with all the magnificence, [Allâhu-Akbar (Allâh is the Most Great)]." 17, Al-Esra'
How can anyone then deny, except those who are lost astray and do not see the truth, or they do not want to see the truth.

<b>Sixth: Non Muslims views about describing Prophet Muhammad:
</b>
<b>
</b>
"lf a man like Muhammed were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world, he would succeed in solving its problems that would bring it the much needed peace and happiness."
<b>George Bernard Shaw</b>
<b>
</b>
"I have studied him — the wonderful man — and in my opinion far from being an anti-Christ he must be called the saviour of humanity."
<b>George Bernard Shaw in "The Genuine Islam"</b>
<b>
</b>
"People like Pasteur and Salk are leaders in the first sense. People like Gandhi and Confucius, on one hand, and Alexander, Caesar and Hitler on the other, are leaders in the second and perhaps the third sense. Jesus and Buddha belong in the third category alone. Perhaps the greatest leader of all times was Mohammed, who combined all three functions. To a lesser degree, Moses did the same."
<b>Professor Jules Masserman</b>
<b>
</b>
"Head of the State as well as the Church, lie 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. ft ever a man had the right to say that he ruled by a right divine, it was Muhummed. for he had all the powers without their supports. He cared not tor the dressings of power. The simplicity of his private life was in keeping with his public life.""
<b>Rev. R. Bosworth-Smith</b>

</b>
"Muhammad was the soul of kindness, and his influence was felt and never forgotten by those around him."
<b>Diwan Chand Sharma, The Prophets of the East, Calcutta 1935, p. 122.</b>
<b>
</b>
"Philosopher, Orator, Apostle, Legislator. Warrior, Conqueror of ideas, Restorer of rational beliefs, of a cult without images; the founder of twenty terrestrial empires and of one spiritual empire, that is Muhammed. As regards all standards by which human greatness may be measured, we may well ask, is there any man greater than he?"
<b>Lamartine, Historic de la Turquie, Paris 1854, Vol. 11 pp. 276-2727.</b>[/b]
<b>
</b>
"It is impossible for anyone who studies the life and character of the great prophet of Arabia, who knows how he taught and how he live,. to feel anything but reverence for that mighty Prophet, one of the great messengers of the Supreme. And although in what I put to you I shall say many things which may be familiar to many, yet I myself feel whenever I re-read them, a new way of admiration, a new of reverence for that mighty Arabian teacher."
<b>Annie Besant, The Life and Teachings of Muhammad, Madras 1932, p.4</b>
<b>
</b>
"Muhummed is the most successful of all Prophets and religious personalities."
<b>Encyclopaedia Britannica</b>
<b>
</b>
"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 level."
<b>Michael H. Hart, THE 100: A RANKING OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL PERSONS IN HISTORY, New York: Hart Publishing Company, Inc., 1978, p. 33.</b>

</b>
"I wanted to know the best of one who holds today's undisputed sway over the hearts of millions of mankind....I became more than convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days in the scheme of life. It was the rigid simplicity, the utter self-effacement of the Prophet, the scrupulous regard for his pledges, his intense devotion to this friends and followers, his intrepidity, his fearlessness, his absolute trust in God and in his own mission. These and not the sword carried everything before them and surmounted every obstacle. When I closed the 2nd volume (of the Prophet's biography), I was sorry there was not more for me to read of the great life."
<b>Mahatma Gandhi</b>
<b>
</b>
"His readiness to undergo persecutions for his beliefs, the high moral character of the men who believed in him and looked up to him as leader, and the greatness of his ultimate achievement - all argue his fundamental integrity. To suppose Muhammad an impostor raises more problems than it solves. Moreover, none of the great figures of history is so poorly appreciated in the West as Muhammad."
<b>W. Montgomery Watt, MOHAMMAD AT MECCA, Oxford, 1953, p. 52.</b>
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said:
<b>
</b>
"Do not over-praise me as the Christians over-praised Jesus the son of Mary. I am His slave, so say: 'God's slave and messenger'."
[Narrated by both Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
The messenger of God, Jesus(pbuh), says:
<b>
</b>
"And this is life eternal, that they might know You the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent."
[John 17:3]
I think this is enough as a brief defence, may Allah accept from me, it is either you love the Prophet and beleive him and follow his word and steps, or deny him then you lose your life in this world and the hereafter, if I am right from Allah if I am mistaken then from my ignorance mistake, and satan.
