Prophet Muhammad’s ﷺ impact on the world was extraordinary and unique in terms of his global political achievements, him being a demonstrably greater influence on spirituality than any other founder of the major faiths, and him advancing social wellbeing in unparalleled ways.
Many non-Muslim historians in the west acknowledge this, such as Michael Hart who famously ranked him atop the list of the “100 Greatest” influencers of human history. Similarly, Alphonso de Lamartine writes, “If greatness of purpose, smallness of means, and astounding results are the three criteria of human genius, who could dare to compare any great man in modern history with Muhammad?”
