What in the world is wrong with your logic and reasoning, Nabil? Muhammad and his followers robbed hundreds of caravans carrying trade goods, killed the drivers of the caravans ,raped their women and confiscated the camels. For some inexplicable reason these actions are irrelevant. According to you, the most important aspect of Muhammad's life is that Muhammad never broke the treaty that he made with the Meccans at Hudaibiya. Wow, wasn't Muhammad a great man? Below is a list of our peaceful Prophet's (or should that be profit) unimportant and irrelevant skirmishes.
