I find it ironic that you are concerned with this when your own koran is full of errors. It has abrogated surahs (it seems that mohammed couldn’t make up its, allah’s, mind).

‘We **noted the haphazard means by which the Qur’an was collected, and were appalled by the many abrogations and errors which exist in this supposedly “perfect” word of Allah. We came to the conclusion that the book could be nothing more than a man-made piece of literature, which could not stand alongside the great literary compositions that we have in our possession today.’
…
‘When we read the Qur’an we are struck by the large number of Biblical stories within its pages. Yet, these stories have little parallel with that which we read in our Bible. The Qur’anic accounts include many distortions, amendments, and some bizarre additions to that which we have heard our parents read to us at devotional times.’
…
’ …that many of the corresponding stories which we find in the Qur’an are from a later date (towards the end of the eighth century, or 100-150 years after the death of Muhammad), and have little to do with Muhammad. They were possibly written by later Persian or Syrian redactors, who simply borrowed stories from their own oral traditions (Persian Zoroastrians, or Byzantine Christians) as well as stories from the apocryphal Jewish literature which would have been around at that time. They then simply telescoped back the stories onto the figure of Muhammad in the seventh century. Whatever is the case, the Qur’anic accounts do have interesting parallels with the Jewish apocryphal literature from the second century C.E.’**
It goes on and it is very interesting where mohammed might have gotten his stories from in relation to the Bible.
BUT!! There is indeed a good reason why mohammed had so many abrogations (or basically he forgot what he had said the previous day). Read the following.
No, allah is not the same God of the Jews and Christians - it is a god of greed, lust, hate, chaos, deception, etc. To me that sounds like the Prince of Lies which is Satan. Are you sure that mohammed saw the Angel Gabriel and not the Angel Lucifer? Since Lucifer is the Prince of lies - it seems more logical to me that is indeed what mohammed saw. but, did he see any angel at all is the real question or did he have frontal lobe epilepsy and only have a ‘fit’? It sounds more like having fits would be less attractive than saying that he was seeing angels and more acceptable of an explanation.
mohammed had suicidal thoughts and tried to commit suicide several times. And his so called hallucinations that he called them sounds more like temporal lobe epilepsy. (Sira Ibn Ishaq p.106) His explanation of how he felt Gabriel had grabbed him and squeezed him so hard until he felt excruciating pain in his abdomen that he thought he would die is a description of this type of epilepsy.
(page 109 - 119, in ‘Understanding muhammad, A Psychobiography’ really describes all the physical problems that sound like mohammed had via his chronoclers)
This hadith sounds like a seizure:
**Volume 2, Book 26, Number 652:
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
When the Ka’ba was built, the Prophet and Abbas went to bring stones (for its construction). Al Abbas said to the Prophet, “Take off your waist sheet and put it on your neck.” (When the Prophet took it off) he fell on the ground with his eyes open towards the sky and said, “Give me my waist sheet.” And he covered himself with it.
**
Sometimes mohammed fell and sometimes he did, sometimes he lost consciousness and sometime he did not which indicates he had both partial and full seizures. And along with this epilepsy comes memory loss (which explains him forgetting what he said allah said from day to day).
mohammed was having these seizures since he was a child because his wet nurse gave mohammed back to his mother and described him as having strange behavior and strange fantasies (a symptom of temporal lobe epilepsy).
