Thomas Carlyle (1795 – 1881) saw about prophet Muhammad(Pbuh)

Thomas Carlyle (1795 – 1881) was a Scottish philosopher, satirical writer, essayist, historian, teacher and a Nobel Prize winner during the Victorian era.

He said about the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in his book "On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and The Heroic in History" :

"How one man single- handedly, could weld warring tribes and Bedouins into a most powerful and civilized nation in less than two decades?"

"The lies which well-meaning zeal has heaped round this man are disgraceful to ourselves only."

"A silent great soul, one of that who cannot but be in earnest. He was to kindle the world; the Worlds Maker had ordered so."
