When God speaketh to man, it must be either immediately or by mediation of another man, to whom He had formerly spoken by Himself immediately. How God speaketh to a man immediately may be understood by those well enough to whom He hath so spoken; but how the same should be understood by another is hard, if not impossible, to know. For if a man pretend to me that God hath spoken to him supernaturally, and immediately, and I make doubt of it, I cannot easily perceive what argument he can produce to oblige me to believe it.

This Hobbesian reasoning can be applied to all monotheist religions and political-religious-cultural creed systems (like Islam). My research of the history of Arabia before and during Mohammed's time shown that there is no evidence to support Mohammed's claims to receiving divine revelations from "God" because there was no witness presenting with Mohammed to back him up or there was no one before Mohammed receiving similar revelations in the past. Most of Mohammed's peers and followers were illiterate, and Christian Arabs, pagan Arabs and Jews were right to doubt him and rejected his claims. But Mohammed and his "faithful" cohort followed up with violence, terror and murderous spree against them.
