A very interesting point of view.

I have jut read the thesis of french author Edouard Marie-Gallez "Le Messie et son prophète", which summarised rigorously all what is know with certainty about Muhammad and the rise of Islam.

This book begin with the fall of Jerusalem (70 A.C.), then follow the judeo-nazarenien sect till Arabia and the influence it had on Muhammad; It show that the first muslims (proto-muslims) who took Jerusalem began to build... a new Temple (and not a Mosqee).

A must read book that will have a great impact for the futur understanding of Islam, I presume.
