    The Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) is generally seen as collecting the beliefs and rules which codify Islam.

    According to http://www.islam101.com

    Muhammed (pbuh) was born in Makkah, a city in the present-day Saudi Arabia in 570 C.E. He is a direct descendant of Prophet Ishmael, the first son of Prophet Abraham. Peace and blessings of God be on all His prophets. Muhammad received divine revelations (The Holy Quran) over a period of 23 years in the seventh century of the Christian Era. Muslims believe that he is the last Messenger sent by God for the guidance of mankind until the Day of Judgment. He is the model for humanity of all walks of life to follow until the Last Hour. God sent him as a mercy for the worlds.

    The primary sources of knowledge are the Holy Quran and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad. Anyone wanting to live a life in worship and obedience to God should follow these teachings.

    • Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was not the founder of Islam, he preached the message of Islam.

    • Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was not the founder of Islam, you should either state god (Allah) or (as islam means submission) you should state the first prophet to submit to god.
