The Debate on whether the Muhammad of the 9th and 10th century Traditions Existed was carried out in California, on November 14th, 2020, between Dr David Wood and Dr Jay Smith.
David supported the notion that he did exist, and that the later Traditions can be trusted concerning what they say about Muhammad, because with all the myriad of embarrassing stories about him, how could or would the later Traditional writers create them, unless of course these stories were true (the Principle of Embarrassment).
Jay took the opposing position that the Muhammad of the later Traditions did not exist because there is simply is no historical evidence for him, nor his city Mecca, nor his book the Qur'an, nor his religion Islam, or its people the Muslims at all at least before 690 AD, a full 60 years when he supposedly would have died.
Watch the debate, and decide who convinced you the most, David or Jay.

I think both sides have very strong points. I’m pretty well convince by Jay that Petra was the original “Place of the Prophet”, but while I can imagine many strange and embarrassing stories evolving around the name “Mohammed” over the course of 200 years, at the same time I find it hard to believe the Arabs could bring themselves to believe in the stories of Mohammed unless there was sone historical figure at the core of the legends. What I mean is that Arab story tellers might look at the inscriptions of the word Mohammed and make up some stories about him. In fact the tales of the wars between his successors and the demonic possessions are exactly the sort of harrowing tales the Arab poets might make up. But they would not become confused and imagine these stories actually took place, nor would they be likely to convince anyone of they tried that such stories were true. That is unless they could produce actual witnesses. And of course they do produce witnesses. The question then is, how reliable is witness testimony when used to construct a biography about a man who does 200 years ago? Imagine we tried today to construct a biography of George Washington by oral tradition. It’s a joke. Yet no one would take that biography seriously unless someone named George Washington had led the Continental Army. You can certainly construct a legend around a core like that, but not a reliable history. The criterion of embarrassment I find ridiculous. These are the sort of antics Arabs of the time would want to hear. But of course it may be that certain embarrassing details about the actual figure were remembered. Or sone of those stories may have been invented by individual storytellers to accomadate their own temperaments or to scandalize the audience, perhaps to demonstrate thier own intimate knowledge of the figure. Over all I think there must have been someone who took on the role of warrior prophet of the Arabs and United them against the Persians and Romans. However I suppose He may not have lived in a city at all.

David definitely had more fun and carried himself better than he did in his debate with Robert Spencer on this topic, but the material remains as solid as it was on both ends. David's Opening Statement: Accounts of Embarrassment alone make the historical case for Muhammad. We also have a sound psychological profile and these embarrassing details fit their culture. Jay's Opening Statement: All archeological, biographical, and internal evidence for Islam appears nowhere near where they said it did, nor do the details given match the location it took place. David's Rebuttal: Conspiracy Theories are fun and have a lot of data, but there are still these facts you have to deal with. There are problems with everything in ancient history, but you have to fall back on what you do know. Going from one extreme position to another isn't reasonable. Jay's Rebuttal: Look at the data. If it's unreasonable to dismiss all data on too little information, it's also unreasonable to trust that data on too little (or too late) information. It's not a conspiracy, it's coming to conclusions based on the evidence. Go back to the earliest possible sources instead of crying conspiracy. David's Counter Rebuttal: The principals of Embarrassment are the most valuable standards we can judge ancient history by. If even one of these is true, the debate is over. Jay's Counter Rebuttal: The earliest and contemporary sources are also valuable. Don't dismiss historical points because you've built so much of your ministry assuming what is now seen to be false. David's Conclusion: Accounts of Embarrassment prove the Muhammad of Tradition existed and he's not a prophet you should follow. Jay's Conclusion: Archeological, Contemporary, Early, and Geographical Evidence prove the Muhammad of Tradition didn't exist and you shouldn't follow a non-existent prophet.

By the time David got to his rebuttal and makes his snide joke about 'conspiracy theorists' he'd already lost. He was up against a mountain of hard evidence pointing to an alternative conclusion than that of Muhammad being historically reliable; the types of arguments David made in his opening are typical of supporting arguments, ancillary and tertiary, while Jay is making strong primary arguments from evidence, so much evidence, in fact, that it's embarrassing to see Wood have to come back to the podium at all, especially with nothing more than an ad hominem attack. He should've conceded then and there. But instead he doubled down. That's kind of shameful. Really. At least address the points and bring some new arguments. Plus, claiming you have sources because they are cited in a work when all you have are the citations and not the sources is disingenuous. That's not good scholarship. Especially when Islam teaches Taqiyya, promoting deception in some scenarios. That's why scholarship is important. Christians would never get away with that, claiming sources without providing the actual sources. But this just goes to show how strong the case for Christianity is, given the primary sources all date back to 30-60 years and potentially earlier, plus a number of secondary sources as well.

David, I am disappointed and feel Jay has really gave you first defeat. I have been advising you for a while. What Jay is saying, even not confirmed 100%, is a work of science. 1) Maamad is the title of chosen one in syriac and was used by many groups, including jewes and nastorians. The title was given to many persons in a period where the end time was expected with the destruction of Byzantines and persian empires and the Messiah is expected to come. Maamad is just a title and every instance of that title mentioned in seventh century documents like sebeos and jacobi, the description of the person behind the title doesn't fit at all the abassid mohammed. 2) ummayad worked on gathering the qoran by translating other sources from Arameic in Syria to a book and they included the Ibrahimic jewish debates with other religious groups of the hagareens who allied with ummayad and defeated Byzantines in palestine. Qoran was mainly a product of ummayds, mohammed was still a title in the ummayds periods. 3) Very important to note that sira started with persians and the abassid and they had plenty of time to create and provision the sira of a profit with the name mohammed , not a title, and created many sciences related to sira and Tafsir including the science of transmission and yes it can be created from scratch, am not sure how u can go further down 3 levels in the transmission tree when most early witnesses died after 300 years. There are so many reasons to create the sira as abassid desired for personal and political reasons, they hated the original arabs and ummayds and they conducted many embarrassing behavior that legitimized it by assigning it to the profit, like sleeping with child girls. 4) all of you arguments are from the Islamic tradition. None from the outside and that is weak evidence. You have to remember there is no evidence for the classic Islamic story at all unless if saudi backs u up with some evidence from mecca, some ruins or scripture in Arameic. For example, you mentioned the civil Islamic war and that muslims were busy fighting, guess what, they were not that busy, by logical analysis of number, location and other facts, this did not happen, rather a small skirmishes between ummayds and small groups of Byzantines, battle of sifine never happened... If i was you, I would consider reconciling theory with history as I did. I am now a strong believer that muhammed of abassid never existed. God bless you.

When you study most Christian religious legends and historical sources, they tend to make more sense, and fit together better, the more you look into it. And the same is true of most other historical periods. Early Islamic history is weird because it makes less sense, unless you drop the standard narrative and look for another. It is a lot like the medieval English version of the King Arthur stories, which got further and further away from the sources in Wales and Brittany, and was moved over into England and France for various political reasons. But there is still more historic basis for stories about Arthur in Winchester than there is for Muhammad in a south Arabian Mecca.

Jay smith has a good approach which most are authentic and documented, But Jay peaks as if he is talking to himself . He has to remember that He Must Speak to the Audience, So he needs to speak much slower and must summarise and emphasise on important points which his not doing at all.If it takes he must skip the trivial point so that one can emphasise on the important points. He should remember that he is addressing the lay public and not presenting a PhD Thesis , Therefore Jay needs to try to concentrate on us -the lay public and we do not have time to study all the data he put on the white board. It was great work but diluted in the way he gave he presentation.

yeah, speaking as somebody who trained in archaeology, my reaction to a lot of what David said was "he's out of his field of expertise." He failed to understand the significance of archaeological and historical research, and why as a historian Jay was saying there's a serious problem here. And it really is a serious problem. DW was also speculating wildly to fill in the gaps with his own imagination. That's not acceptable to put forward as a point in an academic debate, anybody can imagine a reason why something might happen, but if you want to say that's what happened you have to have evidence that it did to put forward. He also would also not have excused such a huge gap between the events and the written record if it had been Christianity under scrutiny here. The gap between the Islamic founding 'events' and our earliest record of them is so large that no credible historian would accept the narrative at face value for any other culture in the world. I know that some Islamicists do accept it, but they appear to do so out of fear, rather than because it's scholastically credible to do so.

Hi Jay, I just saw your debate with David Woods on historicity of Mohammed. Some points on that debate: David really had only one point, "embarrassing stories prove mohammed existed." But, he is missing a basic point: all these stories were invented in a competing sectarian mileau & competing political situation. One hadith to counter another hadith... like a game of chess! And this was admitted even by the earliest compilers of hadiths like Bukhari. Thats why Bukhari removed 95% of the hadiths and only retained less than 5% of the hadiths that were prevalent. So, even the traditional islamic narrative accepts that fake hadith was a very common phenomenon (upto 95%). So, the simple question to ask is: if you admit that 95% of the prevalent hadiths were fake, what makes the 5% reliable? Why is that also not fake? Edit [I just saw the dates of hadith compilation. Bukhari - 827-846 CE Ibn Hajaj - 855-875 CE Tirmidhi - 870-890 CE Abu Dawood - 860-890 CE Ibn Majah - 870-890 CE As you can see, all of them in the period of 827-900 CE. And unsurprisingly, this is the period of total political (& religious) chaos in Abbassid realm. After the death of Abbassid Caliph Haroon Al Rashid in 809 CE, civil war broke out in the empire between his two sons, al-Amin and al-Ma'mun, which spiralled into a prolonged period of turmoil and warfare throughout the Caliphate, ending briefly with Ma'mun's triumph in 827. Civil war destroyed the cohesion of the Abbasid Caliphate and fuelled many local rebellions and the rise of local strongmen. These factors led to a prolonged period of political chaos & destabilization in Abbassid realm lasting upto 900 CE. So, these were the major competing forces: a) Ummayyad vs Abbassids (Ummayyads were ruling Spain & North Africa. And Ummayyads had many supporters in middle-east). b) Abbassid civil wars (with a dose of competing sectarian religious ideas) c) Abbassid vs Byzantine (Islam vs Christianity) (And I am not even counting all the local strong men creating their own hadiths). No wonder that hadiths have such strange, embarrassing, & self-contradictory stories.] End of Edit Also, there is no embarrassment. The islamic position is that, if Mohammed did it, it must be correct thing to do. There is no embarrassment in his actions, no matter what they are. So, that concept allows people to use hadiths to introduce whatever they want to legitimize, by redacting them onto Mohammed. I have only one disagreement with Jay on presentation: You said that Abbassids were sassanian persians. I disagree. Because Abbassids were from Khorasan (central asia). Sassanians were from Fars (south west Iran). So, Abbassids cant be related to Sassanians. It is possible that parthian remnants (in Northern Iran) allied with Abbassids ( just as Iraqis allied with Abbassids).

@@Bei-Abedan Hmm... (if I am not mistaken and correct me if I am making a mistake) the Islamic narratives (hadiths) state that Abbassids are from Khorasan (central asia - starting from Afghanistan and stretching all the way to Uzbekistan). They started off as looters (& raiders) of caravans. Ummayyads must have been from Syria because their capital was in Damascus and qiblas were directed towards Petra in their reign. And Quran uses Syrian Aramiac language. And the Quraish thingy is tricky because the meaning of the word 'quraish' itself seems to be evolving. The earliest meaning of 'Quraish' seems to be related to King Cyrus (and applied on Iranians & Iraqis by Jews). But, it was adapted & changed by others over time. Chinese chronicles seem to notice this that the Quraish thingy was introduced into royal chronicles (Mohammed's family) by the Abbassids.

@Lilia murah What's exactly your point here? The most of what you have described comes from the Catholics as we know them to be after the Great Schism. Nothing good comes of them Mary worshippers and of satanic Pope lovers. The only real Catholic and Apostolic Church is the Orthodox Church where it all began. Church is not a building. It's the coming together of people in the name of Jesus. A church is the humans. A group of people. Also where on earth have you seen Yahshuas dead body under the earth? Jesus died but was never buried underground. His body is not buried but lifted in Heavens next to the One who sits on the throne. Also what about the Pokemon fish joke? You are a fool I think. Ιχθύς does mean fish in ancient Greek but it represents a complete different thing. Ιησούς Χριστός Θεού Υιός Σωτήρ. Also Jesus never looked like how the Catholics draw him to be. The Byzantine drawings may be more actual. Research and read history. Not everyone who mentions the name of Jesus, KNOWS Jesus. ✝️❤️

I found this debate fascinating as someone with theological and historical academic. Such a debate online in my country the UK (and much of the EU) would be illegal under our blanket 'hate speech' law which doesn't allow critical debate of Islam if it's likely to offend or upset Muslim's. I'm not a Muslim or an Islamic scholar, but I have a copy of the Qur'an, have read it, and studied Islamic ideology beliefs with an interest in the history and the ideological differences between Sunni and Shi'a Muslim's. Whilst Dr Jay makes an interesting case for Islam as an ideological religion and the Qur'an scriptures evolving much later than the actual time of Muhammad and questions whether the scriptures and historical places might have been borrowed from a different non-Arabic person who lived in a different part of the Middle East near the Mediterranean in Medina, fairly close to what is today Israel. That's a very interesting hypothesis and his evidence to support that hypothesis is quite compelling and makes sense when you consider that Jesus Christ is mentioned in the Qur'an more times than Muhammad and Christ is reveered in Islam as an important Abraham lineage Prophet Messenger of God. The Qur'an draws heavily on the Old and New Testaments. However, the Qur'an's representation of Christ is different to the New Testament in portraying Christ as an ordinary mortal man, not the Son of God. Interestingly too, the Qur'an states Christ didn't die on the crucifix and lived a long life in exile in one of the Arab lands (possibly Saudia Arabia or Syria). The wording of that is ambiguously (like many things in the Qur'an) unclear and open to interpretation. It reads like, "On the cross they believed he had perished!" And then refers to Christ's later life in exile, but only briefly. How one might interpret that is an interesting question I've had with Muslims. Most interpret it literally (since most of the Qur'an is interpreted literally and written in a style that relies less on metaphors, analogues and parables as the New Testament. A literal interpretation is that Christ wasn't crucified. Others interpret it as perhaps Christ was to be crucified, but never died on the cross. Based on how Christ is presented in the Qur'an as a politically powerful Prophet who started a large political movement which challenged the Jewish Rabbis authority and laws, some interpret the Qur'an crucifixion refutal because Christ escaped and went into exile. Possibly bribing the Romans for his freedom. Islam and the Qur'an not believing Christ as the Son of God and Saviour who died for our sins so that we can find salvation, redemption in Him and deliverance through Him, undermines the key importance of Christ and central importance of Christianity. That is of key fundamental importance in presenting Muhammad as the Last and Final Prophet of Allah. Muhammad has displaced Christ as the Saviour, and since the Qur'an states Muhammad will return on the final day of Judgment, you can see why some Christians may view him as being the actual anti-Christ. Especially when you consider how diametrically polar-opposite reversed Islam is to the Ten Commandments, God's main laws given to Moses for mortal sins to avoid. Jesus reaffirmed the Commandments and made it clear they apply to Jews and Gentiles still. The Qur'an encourages and even demands at times that Muslims break the Ten Commandments. That is a strange paradox when you consider that Islam is an off-shoot of Judiah-Christian faith that draws heavily on Torah and Bible, but takes this radical departure from most of God's previous laws and much of what Jesus taught. Why would God send a Prophet 500 years after Christ to basically undo everything he said before and encourage them to kill his Chosen People and occupy their Promised Land? It's quite baffling. It sounds more like a tactic Satan would try, being the ultimate deceiver. Another major problem with Islam and Muhammad is that the New Testament says Jesus is the Saviour of Mankind and describes the End Times and the Second Coming of Christ on the Final Day of Judgment, which suggests God's work is done and he didn't plan to send any other Prophets after Jesus who is our last chance to find our way back to God by finding salvation in the Lord our Saviour and receiving forgiveness and redemption for our sins. The New Testament even warns about following and being led astray by false prophets coming after Jesus using his name. It's crystal clear from Christ himself: "No-one comes to the father except through me."

Iyas Ibn Qabisa as the raw material figure for Muhammad is still a hypothesis. Yes many schollars come to certainty that the word Muhammad, or Muhammad Abdullah (NOT Muhammad bin Abdullah as is believed so far) is a title , not a proper name. Once it was applied to Jesus by a secr of Arabic gnostic christian pre islam to counter the title given by mainstream Christianity as Jesus Christ, The Savior, Son Of God. In gnostic Christian of pre Islam Jesus is Son of Marry the Muhammad (the blessed one) Abd'Allah (servant of God). Later on the title of Muhammad was applied to any messianic figures (the same case happened during the time of Jesus, he was not the only one deemed as messiah, there were a few others believed to be messiah). In the days of the Arab prophet himself at least there were other prophets and one of them was called Muhammad Musaylima. So Muhammad was a title for someone believed to be messianic figure . In 8th century during the formative time of Islam this title Muhammad AbdAllah was twisted to be a proper name of the Nabatea-Arabian prophet who lived in north Arabia, in the land of ancient Midian people. It is possible that the narratives of Muhammad fabricated in 8-9th century was taken from some figures & the hearsays of them like Iyas Ibn Qabisa, Abdul Malik, Muhammad al Hanafiah, Salman al Farasi, combined into one person of this Arabian Prophet.

​@@123zj2funny how every Muslim has to refer to a 'scholar.' One thing I love about Christianity is that searching for the truth is utmost important. Like Jay Smith said, the Bible has taken criticism after criticism, many many years of studying and has a diverse group of scholars, who are not only Christian, but even Jewish and atheistic. The Bible by being critiqued by all sorts of viewpoints on its meaning, it's agenda, and accuracy have been agreed by many scholars that we have more information about Jewish history and the Bible that we basically have the original copies(even if they were lost to time) of the record of the word of Yahweh. Blessed be his name.

Everything David speaks about qualifying Mohamed sickens me to my gut. It does just confirm everything I ever felt about him. Ok, assuming he existed🤮 then it is not a character who God would relate to. Certainly King David is noted to have the heart of God, however he was flawed in a very base human way, but he was not psychotic, or narcissistic. God would not, could not relate to such a person or give so many rulings contradicting so many of his teachings, that he had given for many centuries. Mohamed has been developed and utilised by Satan from the outset to be developed in readiness for the time of the realisation of the Antichrist. Watch out. It’s warming up now.

I agree that these embarrassing stories, is something that confirms Mohamed, or some charismatic initial Caracter did exist. Movements like these don't start unless these is an initial legendary figure who was preserved by biographical oral stories, though they might be embarrassing. Muslims would have loved to have these stories disappear, but now it's too late. But I send my blessings to both believers in Christ. And I would counsel both that they should remember,-------------------------> we are all members of the body of Christ.

I don't get the embarassment principle. If a story is embarassing has to be true? Well, I could argue that even if a religious or in general historical leader that I admire and I want to portray in the best light, invented or not, I would not include events that portray the subject of the story in a bad light. If the subject really existed and did something that would be considered embarassing you would expect the authorized biographies would omit such events. This happens all the time even with current biased biographies. Neutral or opposition sources may include these events but then one could dismissed as biased too. One strong argument to dismiss the argument from embarassment is that such possibly negative episodes add realism to a story that could be doubted as fictional. In the case of Mohammed there are story about him flying in the sky with a fantastic creature. Is this story real or fiction? Embarassing stories are real and stories that portray Mohammed in a too good light (for example having supernatural powers) should be dismisses? It doesn't make sense. The embarassing principle is not a principle at all. People make up stories and they can add fanstastical elements, both positive or negative, there is not a way based on our personal biases to dismiss them (or accept them). Other arguments should be used to accept or dismiss Mohammed historicity.

In one Wood says "Mohammed was too embarrassing to be invented as a prophet of a new religion" and in the other is saying that this "real" embarrassing prophet is the one who was actually accepted as the prophet of the religion. It seems that him being embarrassing didn't matter in terms of being accepted as a prophet anyway. So why not introduce some embarrassing details that made him more realistic or had some meaning to the stories (many of the embarrassing details were actually meant to make a theological point somehow)?

@Lilia murah there is a difference between facts and the TRUTH. Based off of the comment you sent, one might assume you were a criminal court judge. If muhammad was alive today and facing the judge vs the jury (in my country) concerning sex with 9 year old Aisha (after his own self admission to being SQUEEZED by jibreel - knowing he has semen coming from his ribs) ... I don't think the judge would take it easy on him after considering such testimony. Which is a fact. If you love the facts so much... Maybe prove it by actually considering the facts relevant to claims you hope to disprove with obvious subjective moral standard reasoning. Good day 💖

@Lilia murah Part 2 Meanwhile, Constantinople was still fighting for its very survival. In 717 a new Muslim force by land and sea appeared outside of Constantinople and a year-long siege ensued. After a desperate fight, the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire fought off the besiegers, but it remained mired in a struggle for survival. There could be no thought of freeing something as distant as Jerusalem when Anatolia was constantly raided and plundered. It was not until 740 that the Byzantine victory at Acroinon provided the Eastern Roman Empire with a degree of security in the Anatolian heartland. The Byzantine victory at Acroinon notably coincided with a general decline in the power and strength of the Umayyad dynasty, which was also beset with problems on its eastern frontiers. This allowed the Eastern Roman Empire to at last start a "reconquista" of its own. In 746, Constantinople regained control of Syria and Armenia, but already by 781 the Byzantines were again on the defensive. For the next half century, the Byzantine Empire was locked in yet another bitter struggle in Anatolia. Meanwhile Arab rule of the conquered Christian territories from Syria to Spain was characterized by brutality, oppression and humiliation for their majority Christian subjects. (See The Myth of the Andalusian Paradise.) The small Arab elite ruled initially over populations that were overwhelmingly Christian. Due to the burdensome taxes, humiliations and oppression, however, more and more people chose to abandon their faith for the sake of economic gain. Yet conversion is a far slower process than invasion and occupation. To this day, even after 1,400 years of Muslim rule, there are significant Christian minorities in Syria, Lebanon, and Egypt. Historians estimate that after four hundred years of occupation the inhabitants of formerly Christian territories were still roughly half Christian. The plight of the oppressed Christians population (whether majority or large minority) remained, therefore a motivation for the recovery of lost territory and by the mid-9th century, the Eastern Roman Empire had recovered sufficient strength to launch a sustained "reconquista." In 853 Constantinople sent a fleet to attack Damietta in the Nile Delta. Thereafter, despite some setbacks, the Byzantines continued to regain lost territory right through the middle of the next century. In 943 they liberated Mesopotamia with its overwhelmingly Christian Armenian population. In 961 they recovered Crete and in 965 Cyprus. In 969 Antioch was at last freed from Muslim rule and Aleppo offered tribute to Constantinople to avoid a similar fate. The recovery of Jerusalem now seemed possible, and Constantinople was determined to regain this most sacred of all Christian cities. A series of campaigns were launched that systematically recovered the coast of the Levant including Beirut, Sidon, Tiberias and Nazareth. Acre and even Caesarea were returned to the Eastern Empire, but Jerusalem remained just out of reach. As the tenth century came to a close, the Byzantines lost momentum and their attempt to regain their lost territories faltered. What followed was the worst phase yet for subject Christians in Palestine. The new and powerful Shia Fatamid Caliphate pushed back their Sunni rivals and took control of Palestine, including Jerusalem. The Caliph al-Hakim, who ruled from 996-1021, persecuted Christians and Jews and destroyed what was left of the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. In the West, however, the setbacks had started sooner. In 827 the Muslim conquest of Sicily commenced and although it would take until 902 to complete it would eventually be successful. Meanwhile, in 837 a Muslim army had landed on the Italian mainland, ironically at the request of the Duke of Naples who wanted help in his squabbles with his local enemies. Throughout the rest of the century, the various Italian cities remained divided among themselves and all too ready to accept Muslim assistance, which in turn opened the doorway to Muslim mercenaries sacking, pillaging and pirating from bases in Italy. In 846 Rome itself was attacked by a Muslim raiding force and the basilica of St. Peter was looted but not destroyed. When three years later a larger Muslim fleet set out to attack Rome again, however, it was met by a combined Christian fleet that defeated it. What followed, however, was not peace but rather a long struggle for control of the Italian mainland. Indeed, the Muslims succeeded in establishing a base for raiding on the coast of Provence at La Garde-Freinet in about 888. While neither the raids from Italy or the base in Provence were comparable to the great Muslim conquests of the 7th century, they posed a menace to travel and trade and kept Western Christendom on the defense. This did not end until 915 when an alliance of Roman and Byzantine forces drove the last Muslim strongholds off the Italian mainland. For a time, however, the Muslims continued to raid the Italian coastal cities. In 934/35 Genoa was sacked, its male population massacred and the women and children carried off into slavery. Pisa beat off attacks in 1004, 1011, and 1012. Four years later, Salerno came under siege and was only rescued by a band of Normans -- notably on an armed pilgrimage to Jerusalem. It was only now, at the start of the 11th century, that the tide began to turn in favor of the Christians in the West. The Italian city states were gaining sufficient wealth to finance stronger defenses. In 1034, the Pisans launched an attack on Muslim North Africa. A generation later the Pisans again raided Muslim territory, this time Palermo in 1062 and 1063. Finally, in 1087, a combined force raised from Pisa, Genoa, Rome and Amalfi struck at the main base for many Muslim pirate attacks on Italian ships and cities: Mahdia in what is now Tunisia. The expedition was so successful that it enabled the victors to free prisoners, obtain huge reparations payments, and gain trading privileges. Most important, after the raid on Mahdia, Muslim attacks on Italy ceased almost entirely. But just as the Western Christians were gaining strength again, the Eastern Roman Empire underwent a new crisis. The Seljuk Turks had converted to Islam and with the passion of the newly converted and the skills of nomadic warriors they set about establishing their domination over Syria and then turned on Armenia, Cilicia, and the Levant, driving the Byzantines out, before striking at Anatolia. The Byzantine Emperor Romanus IV Diogenes assembled his forces and rushed to the defense of this vital heartland -- only to be decisively defeated on August 26, 1071 at the Battle of Manzikert. Shortly afterwards the embattled Byzantines started sending appeals for help to the apparently now stronger West. That aid would, a quarter century later, materialize in the form of what we have come to call the First Crusade. Furthermore, since Mr. Crawley - who despite repeated requests refused (or cannot) name a single source except wikipedia - insists I know nothing and have it all wrong, I provide below a list of selected (not comprehensive) sources on which I have built my opinion.

He's got huge friends at Sneakers Corner who are experts in 7th century Islam. The idea behind this debate is to distroy Islam using both classical narratives and the 7th century unknown history. This new information from Jay and his team is a huge problem for contemporary Islamic history. Many writers are now revisiting their views and sooner than later we'll see many new editions of already published books on Islam.

Dr. Jay Smith's evidence on historical facts is really damning for Islam.

Watch on youtube full metal theist channel videos regarding Colin (Islam Critiqued) as well as David Wood. Full metal theist is refuting all David Wood as well as Islam Critiqued lies, and all anti-islamic lies made by Christian missionaries also if you have any doubts /suggestions /review after watching full metal theist video then kindly write a comment directly on his channel, He is a humble guy and will surely reply to you in such a way that all your doubts will be removed.

@@123zj2 Have you watch the video? Dr Jay Smith has come up with very strong evidences with historical facts that Muhammad did not exist in the 7th century. In fact, Mecca did not exist in the 7th century! As someone who used to live in a Muslim country for 24 years, i wouldn't say all Islam critiques are wrong or refuted. In fact, most i have seen from David Wood and Jay Smith and others have been spot on. I have watched a lot of so called David Wood refuted videos but not convincing at all and i find most if not all lies in their video. I know full metal theist channel and no i don't believe it's a good source.

You know it makes sense now that a painting or picture of Muhammad is not allowed. How can it be allowed if there was no face to paint?

I do not believe religious Mo ever existed but David has also a point there of why Arabs would spend so much energy in so many years to make such funny ridiculous and insulting stories about their prophet.. Either were people who hated Muhammad and after he died began to spread such stories/Hadiths to alter his posthumous reputation or the Arabs had rich imagination and much free time to kill..lol.🙄😕

During a show with Jay, Robert Spencer agreed with my proposal of the amalgamation-replacement theory. The Abassid propagandists took existing stories and transposed Muhammad into them. We know where this happened when they used Jewish, sectarian Christians and Zoroastrian sources because we have other written material to compare. We don't know the Arabian pagan sources because they were an oral culture. Hence, all the original protagonists were fully subsumed into the Muhammad legend. This fits both the lack of historical attestation to an actual Muhammad, and also the embarrassing details left inside.

David, if Muhammad of the Hadith were the most "obvious" false prophet, why would people be following him? It seems like a more logical statement that these stories were not embarrassing to the people of the 7th-9th century people. This means that embarrassment cannot be used to prove that the stories were true. Once we know that all of the available sources come at least 2 centuries after the events that they were supposed to recount. Probably some is true and some is false but today it's impossible to say what exactly.
