Sir George Bernard Shaw on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) - He must be called the Savior of Humanity. I believe that if a man like him were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world, he would succeed in solving its problems in a way that would bring it much needed peace and happiness.- Sir George Bernard Shaw, The Genuine Islam, Singapore, Vol 1Annie Besant on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) It is impossible for anyone who studies the life and character of the great prophet of Arabia who knows how he taught and how he lived to feel anything but reverence for that mighty Prophet one of the great messengers of the Supreme. Annie Besant one of the founders of the Banaras Hindu University & supporter of Indian IndependenceDiwan Chand Sharma on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) Prophet Muhammads reputation for honesty and impartiality was so well known throughout Arabia that people came to him to have their disputes settled irrespective of the religion they professed. When it was a case of a dispute between a Jew and a Muslim neither had any advantage over the other because of his religion. Diwan Chand Sharma The Prophets of the East page # 116.Dr. Gustav Weil on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) Muhammad was a shining example to his people. His character was pure and stainless. His house his dress his food - they were characterized by a rare simplicity. A history of the Islamic peoples page # 27Edward Gibbon on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) The good sense of Muhammad despised the pomp of royalty. The Apostle of God submitted to the menial offices of the family; he kindled the fire; swept the floor; milked the ewes; and mended with his own hands his shoes and garments. Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire Vol 5 page # 252James Michener on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) At Muhammads own death an attempt was made to deify him but the man who was to become his administrative successor killed the hysteria with one of the noblest speeches in religious history: If there are any among you who worshipped Muhammad he is dead. But if it is God you worshipped He lives forever. Islam: The Misunderstood Religion page # 69Jules Masserman on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) Leaders must fulfill three functions:Provide for the well-being of the led Provide a social organization in which people feel relatively secure and Provide them with one set of beliefs.Perhaps the greatest leader of all times was Mohammed who combined all three functions. Who Were Historys Great Leaders? Special Section in Time MagazineLamartine on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) Philosopher orator apostle legislator warrior conqueror of ideas restorer of rational dogmas of a worship without images the founder of twenty terrestrial empires and of one spiritual empire that is Mahomet. By all scales on which we measure human greatness what man was greater than he? Histoire de la Turquie page 155Mahatma Gandhi on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) I became more than ever convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days in the scheme of life. It was the rigid simplicity the utter self-effacement of the Prophet the scrupulous regard for pledges his intense devotion to his friends and followers his intrepidity his fearlessness his absolute trust in God and his own mission. These and not the sword carried everything before them and surmounted every obstacle. Mahatma Gandhi Collected Works of Gandhi Vol 29 Page#133Montgomery Watt on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) His readiness to undergo persecution for his beliefs the high moral character of the men who believed in him and looked up to him as a leader and the greatness of his ultimate achievement—all argue his fundamental integrity. Muhammad at Mecca page # 52Ockley on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) The intellectual image of the Deity has never been degraded by any visible idol; the honor of the Prophet has never transgressed the measure of human virtues; and his living precepts have restrained the gratitude of his disciples within the bounds of reason and religion. Saracens - their history page # 54OLeary on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) History makes it clear however that the legend of fanatical Muslims sweeping through the world and forcing Islam at the point of sword upon conquered races is the one of the most fantastically absurd myths that historians have ever repeated. Islam at the cross roads page # 8Prof. Hurgronje on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) The league of nations founded by the prophet of Islam put the principle of international unity and human brotherhood on such universal foundations as to show candle to other nations. Prophet of Islam Rao page # 12Prof. Ramakrishna Rao on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) The theory of Islam and Sword for instance is not heard now frequently in any quarter worth the name. Principle of Islam that there is no compulsion in religion is well known. The greatest success of Muhammads life was affected by sheer moral force without the stroke of a sword. Muhammad - The Prophet of Islam page # 6Reverend Bosworth Smith on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) Head of the State as well as the Church; he was Caesar and Pope in one; but he was Pope without the Pope’s pretensions and Caesar without the legions of Caesar without a standing army without a bodyguard without a police force without a fixed revenue. If ever a man ruled by a right divine it was Muhammad for he had all the powers without their supports. He cared not for the dressings of power. Mohammed and Mohammedanism Page# 235.Sarojini Naidu on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) Brotherhood is the fundamental doctrine that Islam taught: –Brotherhood of civic life of intellectual life of spiritual life in the sense of leaving other religions and creeds free to offer their worship. This is what we call modern toleration the larger outlook this is what we call civilisation. Talk delivered by Sarojini Naidu (Freedom Fighter and Poetess) at Madras in 1917.Sir George Bernard Shaw on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) He must be called the Savior of Humanity. I believe that if a man like him were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world he would succeed in solving its problems in a way that would bring it much needed peace and happiness. Sir George Bernard Shaw The Genuine Islam Singapore Vol 1Stobart on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) Judged by the smallness of means at his disposal and the extent and permanence of the work he accomplished no name in the worlds history shines with a more specious lustre than that of the Prophet of Mecca.

You ask “What good can there be in his religion?” If there were no good how could it live? The good alone lives that alone survives; because the good alone is strong therefore it survives. The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda Volume 4 The Great Teachers of the WorldThe Most Influential Person in History My choice of Muhammad to lead the list of worlds most influential persons may surprise some readers and may be questioned by others but he was the only man in the history who was supremely successful on both the secular and religious level. It is this unparalleled combination of the secular and religious influence which I feel entitles Muhammad to be considered to be the most influential single figure in human history. Michael Hart former NASA Research Scientist & Historian in "The 100 - A Ranking of the Most Influential Persons in the History"Thomas Carlyle on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) Our current hypothesis about Mahomet that he was a scheming Impostor a Falsehood incarnate that his religion is a mere mass of quackery and fatuity begins really to be now untenable to any one. The lies which well-meaning zeal has heaped round this man are disgraceful to ourselves only. On Heroes Hero-Wroship and Heroic in History page 42Washington Irving on Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) In the time of his greatest power he maintained the same simplicity of manners and appearance as in the days of his adversity. So far from affecting a regal state he was displeased if on entering a room any unusual testimonials of respect were shown to him. The Life of Mahomet page # 199
