Muhammad ibn 'Abdullah (ca. 570/571 Mecca - June 8, 632 Medina), is the founder of the religion of Islam and is regarded by Muslims as a messenger and prophet of God (Allah), the last and the greatest law-bearer in a series of Islamic prophets as taught by the Qur'an 33:40–40. Muslims thus consider him the restorer of an uncorrupted original monotheistic faith (Islam) of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and other prophets. He was also active as a diplomat, merchant, philosopher, orator, legislator, reformer, military general, and, according to Muslim belief, an agent of divine action.
