What was Muhammad's role in establishing and spreading Islam? Explain in two sentences.

Answer 1

Muhammad is considered the Prophet and the final messenger of God in Islam, who received revelations through the angel Gabriel that form the basis of the Quran. His role in establishing and spreading Islam involved preaching monotheism, building a following in Mecca, and later leading the Muslim community in Medina, which resulted in the formation of a cohesive religious and political community that expanded rapidly throughout the Arabian Peninsula and beyond.
