The reason why Prophet Mohammed Pbuh was illiterate?
The prophet mohammed was illiterate from da day he was born till he died. And to him was the holy book "QURAN" given. This was mainly done by God to show n make people see that the book was not produced by him, and that it was given by GOD. Imagine, how beautiful the chapters are in the holy Quran!! And people were astounded and believed the Prophet when he announced the "Quran" to the people. How can someone who has no knowledge of writing come up with a beautiful book? It must certainly be from God. And this were one of the reasons why he was illiterate.
