Whoop
I find it fascinating that Mahomet was one of John Dee's Illuminati

a book called the Koran. That book says, "We follow the religion of Abraham the orthodox, who was no idolater. We believe in God and that which hath been sent down to us, and that which hath been sent down unto Abraham and Ishmael, and Isaac and Jacob and the tribes, and that which was delivered unto Moses and Jesus, and that which was delivered unto the prophets from the Lord; we make no distinction between any of them, and to God we are resigned."

According to Indries Shah in his book, The Sufis, Mahomet also figures in the legends of the Sufis. The Sufis are a group maintaining and teaching the "secret tradition." The Sufis do not erect systems as one would build an edifice for succeeding generations to examine and learn from. Sufism is transmitted by means of the human exemplar, the teacher. Because he is an unfamiliar figure to the world at large, it does not mean that he does not exist.

One of the most widespread of the Sufi Orders is the Naqshbandi. They trace their spiritual pedigree to Mahomet through most of the early classical teachers; also to Mahomet's companion, Abu Bakr, and others.

The Sufis are an ancient spiritual freemasonry whose origins have never been traced or dated; nor do they themselves take much interest in such researches, being content to point out the occurrence of their own way of thought in different regions and periods. Though commonly mistaken for a Moslem sect, the Sufis are at home in all religions: just as the "Free and Accepted Masons" lay before them in their Lodge whatever sacred book--whether Bible, Koran, or Torah--is accepted by the temporal State. It is reported that the Prophet Mohammed himself said: "He who hears the voice of the Sufi people and does not say 'aamin' [Amen] is recorded in God's presence as one of the heedless." Numerous other traditions link him with the Sufis, and it was in Sufi style that he ordered his followers to respect all People of a Book, meaning those who respected their own sacred scriptures--a term later taken to include Zoroastrians.

Indeed, Freemasonry itself began as a Sufi society. It first reached England in the reign of King Aethelstan (924-939) and was introduced into Scotland disguised as a craft guild at the beginning of the 14th Century, doubtless by the Knights Templar. Its reformation in early 18th century London, by a group of Protestant sages who mistook its Saracen terms for Hebrew, has obscured many of its early traditions.

It is said to be a metaphor for the "reedification" or rebuilding of spiritual man from his ruined state; and that the three working instruments displayed on modern Masonic lodges represent three postures of prayer. It is said that those who are honored by Freemasons as builders at King Solomon's temple at Jerusalem, were not Solomon's Israelite subjects or Phoenician allies as is supposed, but Sufi architects who built the Dome of the Rock on the ruins of Solomon's temple, and their successors. The architectural measurements chosen for this Temple, as for the Caaba building at Mecca, were numerical equivalents of certain Arabic roots conveying holy messages, every part of the building being related to every other in definite proportion.
