It was written (borrowing from Christianity and Judaism)as a pretext for Mohammed to create troops willing to die for him. Mohammed was a failed idol worshipping caravan robbing warlord, so he sat down and figured out a fake religion to have martyrs.
Islam should be banned in the US Constitution, America has been at war with Islam since we first became a nation.

I mean, Muhammad's story is quite the opposite of that. He was alive during an era of religious corruption where priests and merchants were selling idols of various gods and claiming that the materials and price of the idol dictated how well the various depicted gods would hear your prayers. To not buy an icon was to doom yourself to be hated by that god.
The Islamic religion was a cult that was competing with the mainstream religion at the time, but Muhammad wasn't really related to them. He just thought the idols were bullshit, broke them in a public spectacle, then fled because he knew they'd kill him in a terrible way if he was caught.
Because the people were dead-sick of the religious system in place, Muhammad was labeled a hero of the people. Because the Islamic religion was struggling to get a foothold, they co-opted Muhammad's name. This, combined with the vacuum of power of many not wanting to be part of the established religion, allowed the Islamic religion to become the primary religion.
Then they ironically took the sacred icons that Muhammad destroyed and made them sacred icons of their religion, which really is a sign of how Muhammad definitely wasn't related to the Islamic religion. He hated icons in religion. It was his entire reason for making a stand against the established religion. He's used as an example for an iconoclast.
Nah, you can fuck off. I'm saying Muhammad did something good in his life, then a death cult stole his name and put words in his mouth that reflected what the death cult wished. The original poster tried to claim that Muhammad was peddling religious icons, which is the one thing historians know for certain is false about Muhammad, because many people recorded Muhammad's actions prior to him being associated with the Islamic religion.

Perfect summary, you only forget very little details, for example that he was
A FUCKING PEDOPHILE
and
CALLED TO KILL "NONBELIEVERS", aka JEWS AND CHRISTIANS
(and to rape and kill their women)
Fuck off
