did he eventually lead bands of men into battle ?
yeah
in those battles, what were his tactics ?
kill the other side, don't die
did he spare non-combatants ?
yeah
which is pretty exceptional behaviour by the way
did he take them prisoner ?
some prisoner, some not, depends on what they were
some slaves
how did he treat his slaves ?
pretty good
what were his views on those who would not join him ?
the christians and the jews, people of God who had strayed somewhat
others, if they fought him they were enemies
there was an initial consolidation of arabia
what was his views on wives ?
wives are good
one should marry
up to four, but with the caveat that all must be treated equally
What would Germanic heathens be
the only proof is for whenever they are sexually mature
If Muhammed had encountered them
there are various arguments about whether his youngest wife was 9 or 14 or whatever
but the only consistent thing is
sexual maturity
like Persians
according to my understanding of the kuran, aisha was 6 at the time of the marriage ceremony, and was 9 when tmohammed and aisha finally slept together
see its stuff like that
that reveals your total lack of knowledge
none of that is in the quran
by saying that, I'm not disputing the ages etc. you mention
I mean would they be kaffir
but its not in the quran, simple as, it would be odd if that was in the book
yes?
these ages are drawn from various traditions about muhammad's life by various people
this wife of his is a significant figure in Islam
probably his most significant wife in terms of Islamic knowledge etc.
