Then for a man, who was both an orphan and an illiterate… he must have had one helluva a death wish to one day stand up to the two structured and dominant religions of that time, Christianity and Judaism. It’s odd. Some people accuse the Prophet SAWS of plagiarism. Well, the Quran already states that it confirms what the Jews and Christians have with them…so he can’t be called a plagiarizer. Some of the Prophet’s closest companions were very, very knowledgeable about the previous scripture…and they had been told in their scripture of the coming of a final messenger and his signs. They confirmed the signs using their scripture. **Now if the message that Rasool SAWS preached was exactly the same as that which the Christians and Jews had with them…and not any better…as in it contained no better or superior teachings/principles…then there was no need for many of the people to follow him…including the Christians and Jews. **

Yet here we are. It all comes down to faith. Believe what you will. People who did not convert probably did see it being redundant.
