studying...strictly stream of consciousness

muhammad was far more political than confucius. confucius was more about peace and harmony and nature and shit, more spiritual shit whereas muhammad appeared more political. for instance, he had about 13 wives and concubines that only happened essentially for political reasons.
five pillars most crucial to muhammad and islam
three jewels (compassion humility and moderation) most crucial to confucianism themes: humanity, relationships, decorum/orderliness and shit of that nature.
confucianism triggered taoism and buddhism, all intertwined and share similar elements
whereas muhammad's islam spurred the most esoteric sufism
