Do you think flooding me with multiple websites filled with walls of text is an appropriate response? Um.. Think again. I can similarly answer you by posting literally hundreds of websites and books about the historiography of Islam, which say the exact opposite of Spencer's crap. And then I can claim the upper hand and blame you for not reading the hundreds of links I posted, that's not a recommended tactic if you're willing to have a genuine conversation here.
Please use your head a bit and tell us why your major (only?) source of knowledge about Islam is a far right extremist. And remember, you're not spitting any timeless wisdom here, negationist claims such as Muhammad never existed were suggested many times in the past, but were largely ignored by mainstream scholarly research on Early Islam, and not without reason: Muhammad is one of the most documented figures in history, or perhaps THE most documented.

I already clarified this: Spencer dismisses all mainstream Islamic history, like Ibn ishaq's biography of Muhammad and such. He considers it 100% fabrication. This is flatly wrong because Muslims authenticized their history and isolated the fabricated bits.

benevolent god implies an afterlife exists, that's 100% true. So proving that a benevolent god exists does prove that an aferlife is real. but this is another topic
