George Bernard Shaw is an Irish comic dramatist, literary critic, and Socialist propagandist, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1925.
He said about Muhammad (peace be upon him), “I believe 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 much needed peace and
happiness. I have studied him - the man and in my opinion is far from being an anti–Christ. He must be called the
Savior of Humanity. I have prophesied about the faith of Mohammad that it would be acceptable the Europe of
tomorrow as it is beginning to be acceptable to the Europe of today.” - George Bernard Shaw - The Genuine Islam, Vol. 1, No. 8, 1936.
"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 his
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 trouble."
Mahatma Gandhi, Young India, 1924.
Bukhari :: Book 1 :: Volume 3 :: Hadith 63
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
While we were sitting with the Prophet in the mosque, a man came riding on a
camel. He made his camel kneel down in the mosque, tied its foreleg and then
said: "Who amongst you is Muhammad?" At that time the Prophet was sitting
amongst us (his companions) leaning on his arm. We replied, "This white man
reclining on his arm." The an then addressed him, "O Son of 'Abdul Muttalib."
The Prophet said, "I am here to answer your questions." The man said to the
Prophet, "I want to ask you something and will be hard in questioning. So do not
get angry." The Prophet said, "Ask whatever you want." The man said, "I ask you
by your Lord, and the Lord of those who were before you, has Allah sent you as
an Apostle to all the mankind?" The Prophet replied, "By Allah, yes." The man
further said, "I ask you by Allah. Has Allah ordered you to offer five prayers
in a day and night (24 hours).? He replied, "By Allah, Yes." The man further
said, "I ask you by Allah! Has Allah ordered you to observe fasts during this
month of the year (i.e. Ramadan)?" He replied, "By Allah, Yes." The man further
said, "I ask you by Allah. Has Allah ordered you to take Zakat (obligatory
charity) from our rich people and distribute it amongst our poor people?" The
Prophet replied, "By Allah, yes." Thereupon that man said, "I have believed in
all that with which you have been sent, and I have been sent by my people as a
messenger, and I am Dimam bin Tha'laba from the brothers of Bani Sa'd bin Bakr."

Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the Last and Final Prophet and Messenger of God and his message is for all of Humankind. He was not sent only for the people of Arabia or for the people of the 7th century.
God clearly tells us in Quran: “And we have sent you O Muhammad, not but as a mercy for Humankind and All that exists.” [Quran 21:107]
And Surprisingly the Prophesies of Muhammad (that he will come as Final Messenger at the last age) is present in the Scriptures of All the Major Religions. He was predicted in the books of Hinduism, Buddhism, Shikhism, Judaism, Christianity etc..
Prophet Muhammad taught us to worship God alone, without partners, sons or daughters, to love God and to obey Him. He taught us to be kind to each other, to respect our elders, and care for our children. He taught us that it was better to give than to receive and that each human life is worthy of respect and dignity. He taught us to love for our brothers and sisters what we love for ourselves.
Prophet Muhammad taught us that families and communities are essential, and he pointed out that individual rights although important are not more important than a stable, moral society. He taught us that men and women are equal in the sight of God and that no one person is better then another except in respect to his or her piety and devotion to God.](https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/p480x480/417910_242761939189314_1304111559_n.jpg)
