Prophet Muhammad
Muhammad was the founder of the Islam religion. Considered by Muslims to be a messenger of God, Muhammad was born in 570 and his revelations from God make up the verses of the Qu'ran, the sacred text at the center of Islam. Muhammad died in 632 at the age of 62. Ask questions here about his life and his founding of one of the world's major religions.

The way this question is worded is incredibly vaguely and almost every single Islamic Reform movement has called for this. The difference between the Islamic Reform movements is how each of them believes that this protocol should be implemented. Different Answers stipulate different views.
Answer 1: Salafism
There are many scholars who called for returning to the genuine teachings of Islam without innovations; they are called the scholars of the Salaf Al Saleh (righteous predecessors); for the moment, I can think of Mohamed ibn Abdulwahab in the Arabian peninsula, Nassir al Deen al Albani in Syria/Jordan, al Bsheer al Ebraheemy in Algeria. There are also others in the other Islamic countries; I think it has to do with the Manhaj (methodology which is returning to the genuine teachings of Islam without innovations) rather than the personalities.
Answer 2: Liberal Islam
The reform movements of Tawfik Hamid and Tariq Fatah are those who truly wish to return to pure and simple understanding of Islam's teachings. Mohammed was a spiritual and tolerant man in addition to his legalistic leanings. Therefore, a proper interpretation of Islam should balance these two perspectives and Hamid and Fatah provide an Islam that is based on those teachings and not the the theocratic style of governance proposed by the Salafists, Wahhabists, or the Ayatollahs of Shi'a.
Note: Answer 4 is completely wrong about Israel supporting Wahhabism and Israel has denounced the Wahhabi Movement very sternly and considers most of its leaders to be terrorists due to the treatment they deem necessary for the Israelis (and for the organizations that they support financially and theologically). Further it is a farce that Wahhabism or American interference in Middle Eastern Affairs is the sole cause of regional conflict. The First Islamic Fitna during the Age of 'Ali and Mu'awiya occurred long before America. Repression of Mossavi Supporters occurred in Iran last year against American urging. Many problems faced by Muslims do bear an American footprint, but many more do not.
Answer 3: Wahhabism
Wahhabi
Answer 4: Shi'a Islam
Shia Islam.
Wahabis/Salafists are the ones who comprise Taliban, Al-Qaeda members, found mostly around Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Afghanistan and elsewhere. they are pretty much, the Muslim version of the Evangelical church; only, if they're not kept under control, they can get dangerous. Salafists are the ones who are sniper-shooting Syrians and doing suicide-bombings around Syria and Iraq.
please look at this short beautiful story of:
Ibn Saud, Wahhabis, and Oil, to 1945
Wahhabism and the Saud Family; oil and geologists from the United States
please distinguish between sunni Muslims and extremist Wahhabi (Salafi).
Salaf literally means "past people"[=Sahaba] and Salafi means who follows Sahaba of prophet. but today Salafi is same as Wahhabi. but they do not like to be called Wahhabi. they prefer to be called Salafi. Wahhabism is founded by Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab based on beliefs of Ibn Taymiyyah in Saudi Arabia. today Wahhabism is based in Saudi Arabia and is propagating beliefs of Wahhabism in world very powerful and with high financial support by petrodollars from Saudi Royal family.
Wahhabi is in fact supported by US, Israel and England to make conflict inside Muslims and finally to destroy Islam.
Ashura day keep the message of Imam Hussein (sa) alive to reach all humans.
Husain (sa) wanted to send his message with his blood to all the world and to all the humans.
the message of Hussain is:
there is two different Kind of Islam.
the pure Islam of prophet and Islam of Yazid (Ummayids) who celebrated killing of Husain (sa) the Imam and real Caliph of their time.
Husain (sa) said:
with Yazid, Salam [bye] to Islam.
Quran says:
"[en.sahih] Have you made the providing of water for the pilgrim and the maintenance of al-Masjid al-Haram equal to [the deeds of] one who believes in Allah and the Last Day and strives in the cause of Allah? They are not equal in the sight of Allah. And Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people. [9:19]"
Wahhabism is the continue of deviated version of Islam made by Yazid and Umayyad dynasty to can control ignorant Muslims for their worldly greeds.
top Umayyad leaders (abu sufyan,..) did not have any belief in God and Quran and revelation.
without Wahhabism shia and sunni have no problem and are friends.

What is the name of an Islamic holy war?
Jihad. A person who goes on jihad is a mujahid. However, the word actually means "struggle," and a generous interpretation defines holy war as "lesser jihad" and struggle within oneself as "greater jihad," so you can make the argument that simply saying jihad means holy war is oversimplistic. Those who identify themselves a mujahideen, however, are generally NOT claiming that they're engaged in rigorous self-examination.
Which cave did Mohammad meet with an angel?

How were the first four caliphs different from later caliphs?

The leader of pushing buttons
The Arab founder of Islam, Muhammad is held by Muslims to be the chief prophet of God. He was born in Mecca. Muslims believe that the Koran was dictated to him by an angel sent from God.
Why was it Muhammad responsiblilty to remove the corruption from religion?
It's everyone's responsibility to remove corruption from religion, not just Mohammad.
Of course, taking six-year-old Aisha as a wife and consummating it when she was nine, setting the precedent for all underage arranged marriages in Islam probably means he failed at that.
