It's called "A Fall", it happens. Mohammad early on was clearly
inspired by the Most High. After his fall, he was clearly motivated by
the lusts of flesh. The early books of the Qu-ran are an amazingly
positive, loving construct. The later things, are not so. Same with
diets, and lifestyles, people can "Slip" into materialistic love from a
higher prespective. It doesn't mean their early theories, or principles
were false.
In the early books you'll find gems such as this;
1. Respect and honor all human beings irrespective of their religion,
color, race, sex, language, status, property, birth, profession/job and
so on [17/70]
2. Talk straight, to the point, without any ambiguity or deception [33/70]
3. Choose best words to speak and say them in the best possible way
[17/53, 2/83]
4. Do not shout. Speak politely keeping your voice low. [31/19]
5. Always speak the truth. Shun words that are deceitful and
ostentatious [22/30]
6. Do not confound truth with falsehood [2/42]
7. Say with your mouth what is in your heart [3/167]
8. Speak in a civilized manner in a language that is recognised by the
society and is commonly used [4/5]
9. When you voice an opinion, be just, even if it is against a relative
[6/152]
10. Do not be a bragging boaster [31/18]
11. Do not talk, listen or do anything vain [23/3, 28/55]
12. Do not participate in any paltry. If you pass near a futile play,
then pass by with dignity [25/72]
13. Do not verge upon any immodesty or lewdness whether surreptitious or
overt [6/151].
14. If, unintentionally, any misconduct occurs by you, then correct
yourself expeditiously [3/134].
15. Do not be contemptuous or arrogant with people [31/18]
16. Do not walk haughtily or with conceit [17/37, 31/18]
17. Be moderate in thy pace [31/19]
18. Walk with humility and sedateness [25/63]
19. Keep your gazes lowered devoid of any lecherous leers and salacious
stares [24/30-31, 40/19].
20. If you do not have complete knowledge about anything, better keep
your mouth shut. You might think that speaking about something without
full knowledge is a trivial matter. But it might have grave consequences
[24/15-16]

If his teachings were true (and I'm not saying they're not), it seems that
their positive effects would have resulted in ongoing adherence to his own
philosophies.

slick,
Yes, he also smoked and ate alot of garbage in his later years. I
could never understand his smoking... must have smoked two packs a day.
Nevertheless, his teachings were and are true.
