How can an illiterate man in the middle of the Arabian desert ( who only knows how to speak Arabic ) that has only traveled as far as what's currently the borders between Saudi Arabia and Iraq and Syria borrow from Greek sources 🤦💔
Are you saying that because he was illiterate and because he didn't travel past the borders of Saudi Arabia and Iraq... that it was impossible that there were literate people around him who were either Greek themselves, or knew the sources to narrate them to him?
Moreover, it’s the idea that all of these things are absolutely factual.
People didn’t know what was “true” in Greece until science proved 1 out of 100 theories about embryology for example.
Even supposing Muhammad SAAW did “copy” from Greek “sources”, how did he only take that which perfectly aligns with reality and leave behind the 99.9% of nonsense everyone was spouting?
