Arabic for sure. Arabia has always been a Moon-God country.
In effect, Mo was not accused of being a heretic against the prevailing moon deity. It is just that he postulated: If you accept Al Ilah is the main deity, why not say Akbar ... Just fuck off with the rest of your 359 gods.
Oke, let's consider Mo's daddy's name:
Abd Allāh ibn ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib; c. 545-570
Really? Allah before even being there an Allah? Of course not. Son of the moongod the muttalib is quite clearly dedicated to lah ...or ilah...
Then there is another tantalizing idea: int he 12th or 13th century, in Greek writing, there is a document making claims about the heresy of the "Ismaelites" (Arabs) called Mahmoud.
So either: The Mo story is totally brought into existence by sheer brainfarts and names have been written in (Which would very well jive with the fact that the current ideological base is deeply indebted to two scholars in particular, one from Germany, and one from The Netherlands. Without it, there would be no companions and hadith) or ... 13th century Abassides needed a reason to bring the people together, an ideology/identity. After all, they had a war to fight. And it bears to postulate a very noble one then, yes?
Hence the scant documentary evidence in Islam before 13th century, despite claims to the contrary but not sustained.
I mean, forgeries abound during this time for political objectives. Think Donatio Constantini, to name just one, which lead to the 12th century Unam Sanctam which lead not only to the crusades, and not just the ones in the middle east.
Stedinger and Drenthe, Albi crusades have been very much forgotten.

You are very knowledgeable. These are not history I have ever heard of or studied. Thanks.

Try this one for size.
Although, Jay Smith does a good job.
Wow. I like it already. It's just the beginning.
