  ::Raza536, I am suspecting that you haven't actually bothered to read the FAQ or depictions of Muhammad or any of the talk page archives here. The FAQ clearly explains the issue about authenticity. Otherwise, your arguments are old. They have been answered countless times. You are not presenting anything new. And you have not answered any of the questions I asked above. They were not rhetorical.  ::This is an encyclopedia. Its purpose is to present encyclopedic content. That includes historical images that are appropriate for illustrating an article. There is not a single image of any historical figure anywhere in the world that can be considered authentic if it was not made during the time when the subject existed or before the age of photography. And yet, such images are appropriate for illustrating articles about those historical figures, including the prophets Jesus and Moses. And Muslims are mysteriously silent about images of those prophets.  ::You are trying to single out Muhammad for special treatment, which, frankly, appears as if you are engaging in idolatry. Neutrality means we treat every historical figure the same. Muslims have created images of Muhammad. Many Muslims have no problem with the images in this article. They are not disrespectful. They provide readers with an idea of how Muhammad was viewed in ancient times. They serve to illustrate sections of the article. Therefore, they are included. ~
