 THE THING SPREAD SLOWLY, BUT IT WAS
SPREADING, NATURALLY HE GAVE OFFENCE
TO EVERYBODY."¹ Heros and Hero-Wotship, p. 77 c.   "NOT A MEALYMOUTHED MAN! A CANDID
FEROCITY, IF THE CASE CALL FOR IT, IS IN
HIM;  HE DOES NOT MINCE MATRERS! THE
WAR OF TABUC IS A THING HE OFTEN
SPEAKS OF: HIS MEN REFUSED, MANY OF
THEM, TO MARCH ON THAT OCCASION;
PLEADED THE HEAT OF THE WEATHER, THE
HARVEST, AND SO FORTH; HE CAN NEVER
FORGET THAT.  YOUR HARVEST?  IT LASTS FOR
A DAY.  WHAT WILL BECOME OF YOUR
HARVEST THROUGH ALL ETERNITY?  HOT
WEATHER?  YES, IT WAS HOT; 'BUT HELL WILL
BE HOTRER!' SOMETIMES A ROUGH SARCASM
TURNS UP: HE SAYS TO THE UNBELIEVERS, YE
SHALL NOT HAVE SHORT WEIGHT!" Heros and Hero-Worship, p. 95/6.  

Remember, Thomas Carlyle uttered these words, and
many more to a shocked and bewildered Christian audience
in England, a hundred and fifty years ago.  History did not
record for us the lively arguments and debates which his
lecture must naturally have caused.  He kept to his promise:
"I mean to say all the good of him (his Hero Prophet)
I justly can'" and he went on in his talk to I defend
Muhammad (pbuh) against the false charges, slander and
calumnies of his enemies:

1. The Jews hated the Prophet: the Christians hated the Prophet: the mushriks (the
Polytheists) hated the Prophet, and the Munafiqeen (the hypocrites) hated the
Prophet. It is the nature of Falsehood to hate the Truth. Light dismisses Darkness, but
darkness does not take kindly to light.
