First of all, I would just like to know what Muhammed was really like, as I have heard a few negative things. I am still waiting on my Muslim friends to answer me, and while I wait on them, I thought I would ask you.
What sort of person was he?

his biography from wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhammad
a site about him:

Was he violent, abusive, etc?
|
not at all. I couldn't find any violent point in his life, but instead I found much violence in his enemies, and yet I find it even in today's world.

how do you feel knowing Islam is judged, and given a bad rap?
|
islam is now being judged by the false propaganda from western countries. I believe that westerners should study more about islam to find out what's it about.

Does it feel as if everyone is against you?
|
no, definitely not. many people accepted me here as a muslim, just some people that are full of hate, couldn't solve their issues and can't accept me as a friend.

Lastly, what was the reaction to the September 11 attacks?
|
many people sympathized with americans. civilian's death is always hurtful. no one gets happy by hearing such news.
