According to the worlds leading contemporary biographers of the late 20th century who worked together to identify the greatest people in history, they declared Muhammad (pbuh) as the greatest person to have ever lived in history. The leading figure among these biographers Michael H. Hart in his, "The 100: A Ranking of the Most Influential Persons in History." states that the most influential person in all history was Muhammad, may Allah exalt his mention, with Jesus (p.b.u.h.) second. Examine his actual words: "My choice of Muhammad to lead the list of the world's most influential persons may surprise some readers and may be questioned by others, but he was the only man in history who was supremely successful on both the religious and secular level." Michael H. Hart, THE 100: A RANKING OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL PERSONS IN HISTORY, New York: Hart Publishing Company, Inc., 1978, page. 33. This book is full of lies and the faceless author writes it innocently thinking that he'll get away with it. Far from being morally corrupt, he has been the most exemplary person in character and moral attributes and anyone who wants to live a life with the highest moral standards has the perfect example in him. Encyclopedia Britannica, as it confirms (regarding Muhammad)” ". . . a mass of detail in the early sources shows that he was an honest and upright man who had gained the respect and loyalty of others who were likewise honest and upright men." (Vol. 12) George Bernard Shaw, K.S. Ramakrishna Rao,Mahatma Gandhi,Thomas Carlyle,Diwan Chand Sharma,Edward Gibbon,Simon Ockley,Wolfgang Goethe and so many other prominent thinkers,philosophers have praised the Prophet of Islam in words even better than the muslims themselves. If someone honestly wants to learn about Muhammad (pbuh) then he should refer to authentic sources and not to faceless perverts who write while hiding behind their desks unwilling to challenge the Muslim scholars and historians face to face on what they write.
