Mukjizat Muhammad
Tradisi Islam banyak menceritakan bahwa pada masa kelahiran dan masa sebelum kenabian, Nabi Muhammad sudah diliputi banyak "irhasat" (pertanda). Muhammad dilahirkan pada tanggal 22 April 570 di kalangan keluarga bangsawan Arab, Bani Hasyim. Ibnu Hisyam, dalam Sirah Nabawiyah menuliskan Muhammad memperoleh namanya dari mimpi ibunya, Aminah binti Wahab ketika mengandungnya. Aminah memperoleh mimpi bahwa ia akan melahirkan "pemimpin umat." Mimpi itu juga yang menyuruhnya mengucapkan, "Saya meletakkan dirinya dalam lindungan Yang Maha Esa dari segala kejahatan dan pendengki." Kisah Aminah dan Abdul Muthalib juga menunjukkan bahwa sejak kecil Muhammad adalah anak yang luar biasa.
Surat Jaminan Muhammad
Muhammad is supposed to have died in 632; the Muslims conquered Egypt between 639 and 641. The document says of the Christians, “No one shall bear arms against them.” So were the conquerors transgressing against Muhammad’s command[?]...Did Muhammad draw up this document because he foresaw the Muslim invasion of Egypt? There is no mention of this document in any remotely contemporary Islamic sources; among other anomalies, it bears a drawing of a mosque with a minaret, although minarets weren’t put on mosques until long after the time Muhammad is supposed to have lived, which is why Muslim hardliners consider them unacceptable innovation (bid’a)...The Achtiname, in short, bears all the earmarks of being an early medieval Christian forgery, perhaps developed by the monks themselves in order to protect the monastery and Egyptian Christians from the depredations of zealous Muslims.
