[[File:Mohammad.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Among Muslims, imagery of Muhammad is widely considered [[idolatry]].]]
'''Muhammad''' (also spelled '''Mohammed''' or (archaic) '''Mahomet''') (A.D. 570-632), was the founder of the ideology of [[Islam]].
Claimed by adherents of Islam as the final and greatest "[[prophet]]"<ref>[http://www.billionbibles.org/sharia/muhammad-false-prophet.html "Prophet" Muhammad?]</ref> of [[Allah]] (which they and their liberal allies incorrectly claim to be the [[God]] of [[Christianity]] and [[Judaism]]<ref>[http://www.conservativenewsandviews.com/2016/12/27/clergy/islam-anti-civilization/ Islam: Anti-Civilization] at Conservative News and Views</ref><ref>[http://www.billionbibles.org/sharia/allah-moon-god.html Allah Moon God]</ref>), Muhammad claimed in Allah's [[revelation]]s, via the angel [[Gabriel]], that Judaism and Christianity had grown corrupt, and that Muhammad was to restore the religion God intended. However, common criticisms of Mohammed are: his marriage to a nine-year-old girl was inappropriate; his authorization of the beating of disobedient wives given in the [[Koran]] is unacceptable; and he was a vengeful, man of war (Mohammed said, “If God gives me victory in Quraysh [Muhammad’s own tribe in Mecca] in the future, I will mutilate 30 of their men.”).<ref>

In accordance with the Islamic [[hadith]], its adherents add the phrase of "sallalahu aleyhi wasallam" (or "SAW"), meaning "peace be upon him" (or "PBUH"), after speaking Muhammad's name.

== Images ==
Representations of Mohammed are well known from early on, but not very common. While some Muslims hold beliefs that it is against Islam to make images of Mohammed, others have more relaxed attitudes, and among Shia Muslims, such pictures are common, and much liked.<ref>[http://www.hf.uib.no/religion/popularikonografi/default_eng.html Department of Archaeology, History, Cultural Studies and Religion (AHKR), University of Bergen.]</ref>
