Raymond Ibrahim reveals another "uncomfortable" truth about Muhammad:
This video relates the strange hadith of the encounter between Muhammad and the "al-Zutt." Per the notes from the video posting:
"The earliest sources all depict al-Zutt as humans, meaning the night in question had nothing to do with the Jinn (demonic spirits), and therefore the testimony of Abdullah — a chief and trusted transmitter of hadith — remains valid. "
This leads to two important conclusions:
"First, the bizarre and unflattering accounts of Muhammad contained in the hadith contradict the idea that the hadith is a later forgery meant to give Islam a noble foundational story revolving around a pious and upright prophet...
"and much more importantly: Second, that the hadith, because it does capture the essence of Muhammad, remains the chief weapon against Islam."
