Muhammad was born ~600 years after Jesus.
Islam was the religion that stemmed from Abraham's first born son Ishmael who was cheated out of his birthright after Isaac was born. Read your bible for more on that.
Islam is older than christianity. Quick summary:
"Muhammad was born in 570 A.D. in Mecca, Arabia.
Muhammad is considered to be
THE LAST of the 25 prophets Allah selected to spread His teachings."
You can disagree, but I am correct in my own head.
Doesn't matter - let's just say:
Islam has survived well over 1,000 years without Christian support, often warring with Christians, and still remains.
Fair statement?
