This is open to interpretation, so take each view with a grain of salt.

Answer 1

I am not a Muslim, so my view may be off on this but I suspect that there would be three general categories of messages/letters that Muslims would send Muhammad: Adulation, Clarification, and Assistance.

Adulation letters would be letters that praise Muhammad, his qualities, and/or his activities. This may be followed by some discussion as to how Muhammad's qualities or activities were an inspiration in the Muslim in question.

Clarification Letters would be those seeking to determine which traditions or laws of Islam are correct. There would be questions over whether Muhammad actually did all of the events in the Biography of the Prophet by Ibn Ishaq, to confirm that the current Qur'an is the exact one he revealed, whether particular controversial fatwas (religious opinions) are valid or invalid, and numerous similar questions. These would be almost exclusively on Islamic Law or Islamic History.

Assistance letters would be seeking spiritual or philosophical guidance on a particularly sensitive personal or societal issue. Since Muhammad was an communal leader and arbitrator while alive, as well as being chosen by God to be a prophet, Muhammad would be seen as an impartial and morally-strong party to oversee the issue and deliver a positive resolution.

What prophet was sent after Prophet Muhammad?

The answer will depend on whom you ask... For example:* Muslims tend to believe that there have been no prophets after Muhammad. * Bahá'ís believe that both the Báb and Bahá'u'lláh - the two founders of the Bahá'í Faith - are God's messengers (some might call them "prophets"), which both appeared in the 19th. century.

What happended upon Muhammad's return to Mecca?

Muhammad returned with his Muslim companions to his homeland Mecca after a long journey of torment & suffering for all of them, this was after 8 years from his migration from Mecca to Al- Madina ( about 630 AD ) , the disbelievers of Mecca were asked by Muhammad PBUH about what they thought he would do to them , they told him "اخ كريم و ابن اخ كريم "i.e that he is the generous....& it wasn't a surprise when Muhammad had announced ( by saying :اذهبوا فانتم الطلقاء ) that he forgave them & gave them the peace & nothing but the peace. In that great day all the idols around Al-Kaaba were crushed ,they were 360 ! Hadrat Belal ibn Rabah, may Allah be pleased with him , was asked by the prophet Muhammad BPUH to stand up on the Kaaba & to call for the prayer (Al athan : Allah is the greatest , I believe that there is no God but Allah ,I believe that Muhammad is the massenger of Allah , come to the prayer., come to the good deed , Allah is the greatest , Allah is the greatest , there is no God but Allah ). Many great things happened in that fantastic & glorious day & it's really very hard to mention all of them , but as a result of the tolerancy & wounderful morals of Islam represented by the prophet Muhammad PBUH & his companions people of Mecca all converted to Islam ,men,women ,young & old......Mecca becomes an Islamic city with all of what the word means.

How spil qurhan?

It seems there might be a typo in your question. If you're asking how to "spell Qur'an," it is spelled "Q-U-R-'A-N." The Qur'an is the holy book of Islam, believed by Muslims to be the word of God as revealed to the Prophet Muhammad. If you meant something else, please clarify!
