      Was Muhammad an Arabs?
      Was Muhammad a Quraish?
      Was Muhammad a member of "bani Hasyim"?
      According to the "official" history; Muhammad's ancestry is
      Qushay -> Abd' Al-Manaf -> Hashim -> Abd al-Muththalib -> Abdullah -> Muhammad
      Please notice "Abd' Al-Manaf" which actually translated in English as
      "SERVANT OF THE GREAT MANAF".
      And MANAF is an IDOL GOD of the PAGAN ARAB.
      http//www.pantheon.org/articles/m/manaf.html
      Compare that to Muhammad's father ABDULLAH which actually means
      "SERVANT OF GOD"
      Anyone has any information regarding Muhammad "true" ancestors?

        And if Muhammed's father was an Idol worshiper as stated above by others and that his name "was obviously given to him because of the idol he worshipped" as stated above then dont you think this would have influenced Muhammad in some way.

        Can you say the same about Ibrahim?
        And what about Moses? He was brought up in the court of the Pharon?

          This is true, I was asking this question to thise who know more about the subject then I do. I am a Christian and am here to learn. So I dont completley know this. I am simply taking peoples posts and turning them into my own questions. To see what the answers are. Because I normally get many answers. Sometimes I get facts that can be proven, but mostly I get oppions. Which in the long run mean nothing. Please dont get me wrong I am not saying Muhammad was an Idol worshiper. I am asking those who know his history if it can be proven without a doubt if he was not.

          Sincerely, Abuja

            Peace all,

            As for me, I'm not supporting the supposition that Mohd was an idolworshipper. Who his parents were and what they did could mean a lot, or it could actually mean nothing at all. To me, this point is totally irrelevant. I was just commenting on the names from Jafar's initial 'listing' of Mohd's ancestors. It's as if the names go in progression, from the darkness idol worship into the "light", if you get what I mean.

              Yes I understand what you are saying. And really it dont mean anything. Unless there is no proof that Mahammed did worship Idols and I am not saying he did I am asking can it be proven that he did not? And what does his entire name mean? These are my two questions if you can answer them it would be a great help.

              Sincerely, Abuja

                Even if they were idol-worshippers, isn't that the whole point of prophethood? If a prophet came to a family and society which already are monotheists and good people, why is there a need for him..? A prophet/messenger is a warner for bad people, isn't he? Abraham's father was an idol-worshipper, so is Moses's adopted family, etc...

                  I think the question makes no sense.

                  Seriously who cares what their names were or who they worshipped. What does this have to do with Mohammed? You never read the quran I guess. Most people follow what their fathers told them. Only the righteous will follow what is right even if their own father will threaten to stone him to death (as in the case of Abraham). So really what does so and so's name have anything to do with Mohamed? What does his full name's meaning have anything to do with his beliefs or what he preached? My name means vengeful and judgmental. I'd like to think that has nothing to do who I am and what I believe in.
                  I'm sorry this is silly.

                  I guess since you're coming with a claim that makes no sense you're the one who should PROVE he was an idol worshipper. Good luck.

                    Peace Abuja,

                    This is the whole point, how can we 'prove' anything that happened so long ago, today??? I dare say it's impossible---either way.

                    And Boost, Abuja's just doing some mind exercises--exploring. This is no harm done in asking questions and questioning things. Harm is more likely to come with rigidity and closing others off, creating a sense of separateness and shame.

                    peace Peace, man!

                          I wouldn't be so sure, Boost. You are quite vengeful and judgemental. )

                            So which one of us is the judgmental one?

                            P.S. Name-calling of any kind will not be tolerated. So watch yourself.

                              In case anyone didnt not read all my posts on this topic especially you BOOST. I explained that I raised my questions from someone else's post, the person who started this topic. And secondally no one has even attempted to answer my questions. This tells me that either NO ONE KNOWS THE ANSWERS OR NO ONE IS WILLING TO ANSWER BECAUSE THEY DONT LIKE THE ANSWERS THEIRESELVES. So here where my questions again, what does Muhammad's name mean in full? and Second can it be proved that in his life that he did not worship idols? And again please keep in my I am not saying that he did worship Idols I am simply asking can it be proved that he did not worship Idols. I believe these are two very simply questions that anyone that follows the Quran as there book of Faith should be able to answer. I am just trying to understand why no one has even attempted to answer them yet.

                                And who told you I was even addressing you? I was addressing the person who posted this thread.

                                As for your question, I still see no point in finding out someone's full name in order to know whether he was a believer or an idol worshipper. I never heard of such a test.

                                  I am not testing anything just asking a question. And it is your right not to answer I would just like to know.

                                  SIncerely, Abuja

                                        Abuja,

                                        Recenlty "Experts" have discovered that "Mona Lisa" had just delivered a baby when Da Vinci painted her. They somehow managed to see her underwear, which at that time was used commonly when women were pregnant or had just delivered the baby. That also explains the smile on her face, she was happy for her baby.

                                        Now I ask you, Do you believe this????

                                        It could be the truth, but there is no f... way we're gonna now for sure.
                                        Same goes for Muhammad.

                                          what does Muhammad's name mean in full?

                                          Muhammad Ibn Abdullah
                                          The Praised One From Servant Of God

                                          This is the 'full / official name' which Muhammad often used on his letter.
                                          Reference
                                          http//muslim-canada.org/charter1.html
                                          http//www.touregypt.net/featurestories/catherines5-14.htm

                                          What really 'unique' is the name of Muhammad's Father in full.. (When the 'official' history is correct and not some Arabs / Quraish fabrications)

                                          Abdullah Ibn Abdul Muthalib
                                          Servant Of God from Servant of Moon God

                                          can it be proved that in his life that he did not worship idols?

                                          According to the 'official' history, the early muslims prostrate to a cubic shaped house full of idols.
                                          And Muhammad is said to often encircling the cubic shaped house full of idols.
                                          And God (The True God) protects the before mentioned cubic shaped house full of idols from the attack of elephant riding troops led by Abrahah.

                                          IMHO The official history is 'fishy' and I suspect 'some fabrication' by the Quraishy / Arabs to elevate their standing / position among other clans by claiming Muhammad Ibn Abdullah is a member of their clan. Although I have no prove nor evidence at this moment.

                                          Another thing, would you wed your own daughter to your own cousin?
                                          (Ali and Fatima)

                                          Salam / Peace
