Question

Which statement about Muhammad is accurate? He was the son of Allah. He was born a religious leader. He was the original founder of Islam. He was considered the first prophet of God.

Answer 1

The correct statement is that he was the founder of Islam.

He is a prophet, not a God's son, and also not the first prophet - Islam actually recognizes many of prophets known from Christianity and Judaism.

Answer 2

The answer is option 3: He was the original founder of Islam.

Muhammad was one of the several prophets of God or "Allah" (CA 570 – 632), regarded as the founder of Islam since he was the one who received God's messages in the forms of divine revelation given by the Angel Gabriel in the Mecca and Medina cities, starting at the age of 40 years old. Muhammad wrote all of this revelations down, which are what now is the Holy Qur'an, whereby Islam is based.
