That's definitely possible, because an illiterate man like Muhammad (pubh) could not have written the Quran, and there is no evidence that it was copied from other sources as some claim to be the case (without having any knowledge of the history of the Quran). All the evidence proves that position to be wrong.
I've been been reading a book entitled "The History of the Quranic Text, from Revelation to Compilation: A Comparative Study with the Old and New Testaments," by Muhammad Mustafa Al-Azami. In this book, written with a great amount of research and historical details, the author responds to many different attacks on the possibility of the Quran being fabricated. He looks at each claim separate and shows why everything fails in proving that the Quran is a fabrication or an alteration of earlier works. He responds to Mingana, Jeffery, Schacht, Bergstrasser, Pretzl, Tisdall, Blachere, Puin, Guillaume, and many others who have attempted to find textual distortions in the Quran. The author gives a very honest and comprehensive analysis of all the claims against the Quran.

I am sorry but he wasn't suck at it. Islam itself sucks... And by the way, Not a single scholar ever dared to challange him while he was offering any debate at any platform. And in most muslim counties, they literally celebrated his death... Maybe you were one of them I dont know...
Nah, I was certainly not one of them. I don't celebrate when people die. I still don't know what led him to atheism, though.
