WI: Muhammad, The Merchant

Well yeah, basically, what if the 'founder' of the Islamic creed became a prosperous merchant, and nothing else?

I'm juggling the idea in my head, and i might create a TL based on the idea. But before i do, i want to know if this creates any buzz, if anyone would read it, and if anyone know if someone has used this POD? Don't want to face copyright charges. :p
 
Does anyone on the board have a TL based on this? I know there have been some WIs, but I'm not so good with the search function and would like to read a TL like this. (just out of curiosity)
 
No, no go ahead! There was a World without Muhammad (stevep, if I remember correctly), but I haven't seen it posted in a long while.
 
Well you'd see the conflicts between Persia and the Byzantines continue, with the Byzantines the overall victors most likely. Zoroastianism would continue to be a Major religion, maybe even the main religion of the Middle east.
