FAQ 6: Thomas the Presbyter (640) | What are the earliest sources for Muhammad?
In the year 945, indiction 7, on Friday 7 February (634) at the ninth hour, there was a battle between the Romans and the Arabs of Muhammad (tayyaye d-Mhmt) in Palestine twelve miles east of Gaza. The Romans fled, leaving behind the patrician Bryrdn, whom the Arabs killed. Some 4000 poor villagers of Palestine were killed there, Christians, Jews and Samaritans. The Arabs ravaged the whole region.
In the year 947, indiction 9 (or 636 AD), the Arabs invaded the whole of Syria and went down to Persia and conquered it. The Arabs climbed the mountain of Mardin and killed many monks there in [the monasteries of] Qedar and Bnata. There died the blessed man Simon, doorkeeper of Qedar, brother of Thomas the priest.

Sneaker's Corner seeks to comment on and share some of the key moments from Speaker's Corner. Another goal is to explore in a critical way the origins of Islam, and in this regard, I must credit the work of Dan Gibson, Patricia Crone, Angelika Neuwirth, Jay Smith, Hatun Tash, David Wood, Robert Spencer, Douglas Murray, and many more who from different backgrounds have been asking challenging questions and contributed to my current understanding of Islam.
