I think Muhammad was an intelligent Atheist who figured that the people are dumb and can be persuaded into anything, so after spending enough time alone scheming he came out with a pretty good story to tell them on how he is a messenger of God and he will lead them out of their wrong ways.
Why he had to mess with the Jews and Atheists I don't know. But I don't think there is anything divine in Islam. It started shaking the moment Muhammad died, he did not even name an heir, that is how poorly he planned for beyond his death. And that's because he did not care beyond his death.
In his greatness he also did not follow his own rules. Men can marry 4 women, except him he could marry as much as he likes. Any woman can remarry after her husband dies except him, his wives cannot remarry after he dies. He clearly was in it for himself. He may have done well for Saudi Arabia or whatever it was called back then, but he conquered the middle east and Egypt and not long after he died those regions once peaceful were shoved into a religious civil war with one another, and we still are...
You wouldn't consider leaving your faith because of all the gruesome threats of eternal fire and peeling of flesh the quraan promises those who do not believe, but not because your faith actually makes sense or produces any prosperous way of life...
