The whole documentary is just sensationalism and based on the single fact that some historians were not able to find 'concrete' proof. It was a shamefully inaccurate and shoddy attempt to combine disjointed facts together, merely capitalizing on the Umayyad caliphate and its history when it came in touch with the the Roman empire and minted its own coins, and thus ignoring the masses of evidence and events recorded which support Islam coming into existence at the time of Muhammad as compared to this baseless theory. I'm just really laughing at all of this garbage that you're touting as genuine history.
And it ignores the earliest references to Muhammad which are recorded even in non-Muslim sources, as I mentioned here with a link.
Not even close to being somewhat historically accurate.
