We Now Have Evidence That Muhammad Never Existed

Dr. Jay Smith examines **external polemics**—the practice of evaluating the claims and history of Islam through evidence outside of Islamic tradition, including archaeology, ancient manuscripts, and historical records. In this teaching, Dr. Smith explores some of the **historical challenges facing Islam** in light of modern discoveries in manuscript studies and archaeology. He examines questions surrounding the transmission and development of Islamic texts, manuscript variations and inconsistencies, and the archaeological evidence connected to the traditional account of Islam’s origins. As modern scholarship continues to uncover and study ancient manuscripts and archaeological sites, what do these discoveries reveal about the early history of Islam? How does the traditional Islamic narrative compare with the available historical evidence? And what questions should Christians be asking when examining the foundations of the Islamic faith? Dr. Smith unpacks these issues from a Christian apologetics perspective, equipping believers with a framework for engaging Muslims through **external polemics** and examining the historical evidence surrounding Islam. Whether you are interested in Christian apologetics, Islamic history, archaeology, manuscript studies, or defending the Christian faith, this teaching will help you better understand the historical questions surrounding Islam and how Christians can thoughtfully engage them.
