'Pulling the rug' from under the feet of "peacecful believers"?

RE: 'Pulling the rug' from under the feet of "peacecful believers"?
Hang on, if even Muhammad had trouble with Satan, and could not tell the difference between a message from Allah and one from Iblis, what makes you think the layman will fare any better? The Satanic Verses story is firmly imbedded in the (Sunni) Hadith.This story may or may not be in Shia Hadith; I have not taken the time to read any Shia Hadith, though I have translations downloaded, I think. I wonder if I can find Ibadi Hadith; the more Hadith the story is in, the harder it is to dispel.
You'd think Allah would protect Muhammad, the most important amoung all of the messengers. Having said that, the Quran does claim that every prophet will have enemies sent to them by Allah. Could these dark forces you speak of, MysticKnight, include people such as Abdul Wahaab and other Sunni Fascists? I have a lot of respect for Ahmadiyyas, Shias and Ibadis because they take a lot of crap from Fascist Sunnis that wish they were extinct.
Quran 6:112 Likewise did We make for every Messenger an enemy,- evil ones among men and jinns, inspiring each other with flowery discourses by way of deception. If thy Lord had so planned, they would not have done it: so leave them and their inventions alone.
These are the original Satanic Verses:
Have ye thought upon Al-Lat and Al-‘Uzzá
and Manāt, the third, the other?
These are the exalted gharāniq, whose intercession is hoped for.
The Quran was subsequently changed, but the names of the three goddesses remain in the Quran, as an allusion to what happened:
Quran 53:19 - 20:
Have ye thought upon Al-Lat and Al-'Uzza (19)    
And another, the third (goddess), Manat? (20)
