Mohammed was a pirate, a warrior, a pedophile, a polygamist, a rapist, a mass murderer, an executioner, a torturer, a thief, a liar, a truce-breaker, a kidnapper, a slave trader, a racist, a Jew-hater, an unspeakably cruel tyrant, and a genocidal savage.

That wouldn't preclude Muhammed from being a Prophet.

What about David? He was a Prophet and had a husband killed so his affair with his wife wouldn't be made public. He commanded armies that killed thousands.

We were comparing Jesus and Mohammed, NOT David and Mohammed.

Jesus is the testator of the New Covenant, and Mohammed is the testator of the Koran.

Unlike the genocidal savage Mohammed, Jesus NEVER killed anybody for any reason, NEVER stole, NEVER raped, NEVER lied, NEVER committed fornication, NEVER sinned.

However, consider that David confessed his sin and begged God’s forgiveness (Psalm 52).

Where did Mohammed ever do that? Rather, Mohammed revelled in mahem, murder, piracy, kidnapping and torture. Mohammed delighted in the suffering of others and always justified his mayhem with rantings from the Koran.

David’s wars were wars of self-defense, not wars of plunder and conquest to enrich himself and spread a savage death cult.

Even though David begged God’s forgiveness, God called David a “bloody man” (2nd Samuel 16:8), and David had to suffer the earthly consequences of his sin, even though he was forgiven in the spirirtual realm and was called elsewhere, “a man after God’s own heart”.

There were times that David, like all of us, lived as though there were no God watching. David KNEW he was a sinner, confessed his sins, and submitted himself to God.
