Muhammad: The most common name in the world

Muhammad a holy name which contains a lot of meanings.In Islam it's said that the name was written on the chair of god close to his name before the existence of life and humans.The name belongs to Muhammed bin Abdallah the last prophet and the messenger of Islam.The name is an Arabic pure name which become from the heart of the Arabs peninsula.He was born in about 570 CE.
Muhammed was a human who god love so much and he born with love and happiness to the world.

The name could take a lot of other meaning and forms because it's belonging a person chosen by god so he has to get names which means of his position,the first name is Ahmed which is commonly used in the world and the name which exists in some bibles when jesus said that there will be a prophet who will come after him called Ahmed and the second name is Mostafa which means the one or the chosen the third name is Abdallah which means the slave of Allah (the god ) and many other names.

Nowadays Muslims like to give their children that names because Mohamed left a big happiness and love in their character and he was and still the best example for them.If you call with a loud voice Mohamed in a street in Egypt ,Damascus ,Indonesia ,Malaysia,Iran or any Muslim countries a lot of people will answer you thinking you are calling them.The name can take some lovely tag name like Moody Hamada or Mido as a kinda of simplicity .

Back to the history It's wrong to say that he's the founder of Islam because Islam is not a mine or an invention ,Islam is a message and a religion and Muhammed was chosen for that responsibility because he was a wise man and also he denied to pray the statues in time where Arabs were living in a dark age full of legends .

The name is coming everyday more and more strong in all over the world and it can be written in different ways like Mohamed ,Muhammed ,Muhammad,Mahammad,Mohammed,Mahoma (in spanish),Mohamad and Mohamat.
