“The Christianity which Muhammad (pbuh) desired to restore to its pure and original form was the preaching of Christ, as distinguished on the one part by the spiritual creed of St. Paul, and the other by the outrageous errors of certain Christian sects. The hope and wish of Muhammad, which was not to limit the benefits of Abraham’s religion to his own people (peace be upon them both), but to extend them to the world, has thus become the means of converting to a high form of culture and of developing millions of people of the human race. If it wasn’t for this religion, they would have remained sunken in barbarism, and they would not have been raised to that brotherhood which Islam not only preaches but also practices. “
