Best Answer

No he was not.

a reason for Islam circumcision is "to be like Muhammad, who was 'born circumcised'". This can easily be refuted: if the Prophet was born without a foreskin (aposthetic), he was not circumcised, and that is the way to be like him.

Like Judaism, Islam forbids disfiguring the body:

There is no mention made as to the circumcision of Mohammad anywhere. And the community of which he was a part did not circumcise.

Answer II

Molana Safi UlRehman Mubarikpuri has cited different references in his famous book Alrahiq Ulmakhtoom that Prophet Muhammad pbuh was circumcised on 7th day after his birth , reference ibne Hisham1 / 159 ,160 .

Alrahiqal Makhtoom, pp 83 Urdu edition .

There is no evidence that he was circumcised. and it was not a custom to be circumcised among the Arab's. it was a custom of the Jew. that they carried over from the Egyptians.

Yes he was because it was the custom of his people since historic times. He was of an Arab tribe that claimed to be descendants of Ishmael who is believed to have been circumcised by his father Abraham as ordained by God. The descendants of Abraham have always kept up the tradition till this day, hence both Jews and Muslims continue the tradition . It has to be kept in mind that Islam does not consider circumcision an essential ritual for Muslim's. There is no law in Islam that mandates children be circumcised.
