=== Assistant: Muhammad c. ===
Muhammad (c. 570–632 CE) was the founder of Islam, regarded by Muslims as the last and final prophet (the Seal of the Prophets) in a long line that includes Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. He was born in Mecca (in present-day Saudi Arabia) into the Quraysh tribe and is considered by over 1.9 billion Muslims today as the recipient of the final revelation from God (Allah), compiled in the Qur’an.

* His life (Sīrah) and sayings (Hadith) form the basis of Islamic jurisprudence, ethics, and daily practice.

* His teachings continue to profoundly influence geopolitics, interfaith relations, and spiritual discourse worldwide.
