8. What was Muhammad’s response to the gap in revelations?

9. How often did Muhammad’s revelations come after the second revelation?

2.5 Let’s Personalize this Lesson…

Do you notice that Muslims almost deify Muhammad? Yet many times Muhammad thought seriously
of committing suicide because of the terrifying visions and revelations he experienced. Do you think
he could have had a demonic revelation? Some of the descriptions of what happened to him are very
similar to those described in the Bible as the reactions of people who are possessed of a demon. Think
about the millions of people who have believed in Islam and who have died and are lost. Think about the 1.8
million Muslims today, most of who have never heard about what Jesus Christ has done for them to purchase their
salvation. Maybe it would be appropriate at this time to pray for those who are lost, and ask God to give you
opportunity to share your faith with a Muslim. Pray as to finish this course that you will be prepared for that day
when you have the opportunity.
