Mad Muhammad – he is called insane in the Koran – was no more a prophet than Adolf Hitler was the divinely sent Nordic messenger of Teutonic perfection and grace. Muhammad was a mass-murdering, Jihading, slaving, whoring, psychopath. Islam was built on violence, plunder and rape. A partial list of his mental illnesses is here.
Muhammad was a psychotic who experienced visions [drugs, hallucinations?], voices [ibid], visits from angels [not just Gabriel], and discussions with the moon deity Hu'Baal or Al-Lah [the Lord of Mecca]. His stories constantly changed. One minute he was stating that Al-Lah talked directly to him. Later this would be amended to angels. Further on, 'angels' becomes just Gabriel. Then the cycle repeats itself. As with most mentally ill people, Muhammad could not even keep his own story straight.
In the book 'Islam', by Norman Geisler there is an examination of the various 'calls' and experiences of mad Muhammad. Geisler writes:
"Muhammad himself questioned the divine origin of the experience. At first he thought that he was being deceived by a jinn or evil spirit. One of the most widely respected biographers, M.H. Haykal, speaks vividly of Mohammed's plaguing fear that he was demon possessed: 'Stricken with panic, Muhammad arose and asked himself, 'What did I see? Did possession of the devil which i feared all along come to pass...?”
Demon possessed ? Indeed this would explain Islam, which is in the main the Anti-Christ or anti-Christian dogma par excellence exceeding even that of Atheist-Nazism, or Atheist-Communism.
Muhammad was called the 'mad poet' by the Meccans, because he garbled and confused common poems and utterances which were posted on the Kabaa shrine's walls. In Sura 15-6 we find: "they [the people of Mecca] say: 'O thou to whom the warning hath been sent down, thou art surely possessed by a djinn [evil spirit]." [See also Sura 81:23].
Muhammad like Hitler, was an occultist. If Muhammad was a prophet, it was of death, rape, slaughter and occult black magic. As Geisler states:
"Another characteristic often associated with occult revelations is contact with the dead (CF. Deuteronomy 18:18:9-14; Isaiah 8:19, God condemns it). Haykal relates an occasion when 'the Muslims overheard him [Muhammad] asked, 'are you calling the dead? 'and the prophet answered, 'They hear me no less than you do, except there are unable to answer me.'
In other words, mad Muhammad believed that he was possessed.
In an analysis of Guillaume's Sira or biography of Muhammad, one historian Ankerburg comments:
"Guillaume describes Mohammed's other spiritualistic contacts and revelations: 'On the way back to Mecca a number of jinn or spirits are said to have jostled him...From the books of tradition we learn that the prophet was subject to ecstatic seizures. He has reported to have said that when an inspiration came to him he felt as it were the painful sounding of a bell...At other times visions came to him in sleep...in its early stages Mohammed's verses were couched in the semitic form of mantic oracular utterance...veiling of the head and the use of rhymed prose were marks of the arabian soothsayer, while the feeling of physical violence and compulsion...the outward appearance of 'possession'...seemed to the onlookers to indicate madness of demon possession.' (Facts on Islam, p.12).
The seizures, the foaming at the mouth, spirits jostling the person – these can all be associated with the Occult pagan practices so prolific in Arabia which had existed from thousands of years. Hitler also experienced ecstatic moments, carpet biting, foaming at the mouth, and a rabid interest in all manners of the occult. I doubt many Phds will be writing theses stating that Hitler was a genteel, educated, thoughtful and sane prophet. In Hadith vol 1 #740, vol 5, #199, Muhammad is described as a Shaman, or an occultist priest. This depiction is likely quite accurate and would explain why many contemporaries viewed him as deluded, stupid, insane and quite mad. A portrait which also nicely illustrates Herr Hitler.
