The grand central idea of Islam was common to it with Judaism, and a protest against Oriental idolatry on the one hand, and Trinitarian Christianity on the other. Its angels were Biblical; its genii Eastern. Even its legends may be traced to the Talmud, or the Apocryphal Gospels. The one startling novelty in the creed of Islam was the divine mission of Mohammed himself. " It was this " (says Dean Milman), " forced as a divine revelation into the belief of so large a part of mankind, which was t...he power of Islam — the principle of its unity, its fanaticism, its propagation, its victories, empire, and duration." To the question, whether Mohammed deceived himself prior to deceiving others, or was moved by indignation at his people's idolatry, or was filled with a lofty political ambition, or was a single- minded reformer, a preacher of righteousness; or whether rather his character was not a mixed one, made up of these and other conflicting elements — we may best an- swer in the favourite phrase of Islam, " God knows." Certainly in one point which has been laid to the charge of the prophet, his sanction of polygamy and of slavery, it is well to remember that it had been the established usage of Arabia, and that Mohammed did not enlarge 226 History of the Roman Empire but restricted tlie privilege.
