Because I don't like to talk about the differences between Muslims.  To me, a Muslim is a Muslim.

Or you don't want to talk about the division between Muslims beacuse you don't want to admit Islam isn't perfect. Just like any other religon.

That's the wrong assumption.  Islam is perfect.  In the Qu'ran, Allah tells us he has perfected our religion.  The Qu'ran is our highest book of authority.  It is because of the Qu'ran that I am a Muslim. 

The divisions amongst Muslims are not as a result of the Qu'ran, but rather the differences have developed over issues such as; who should have taken leadership after the Prophet Muhammad, and over sayings and actions of the Prophet Muhammad and his companions.  The Prophet Muhammad and his companions were just men like you and I.  They made mistakes just like you and I make mistakes. 

What made Muhammad a Prophet and Messenger was the inspiration he recieved from Allah; and it is contained in the Noble Qu'ran.  Muhammad's own thoughts and ideas are not in the Qu'ran, those are recorded in what is called Hadith and Sunnah.  Muslims differ over Hadith and Sunnah.  But Muslims do not dispute over the Qu'ran.  The Qu'ran is free from any contradiction, it is a confirmation of past revelations, it's an analysis on all things, and it is a giudance and mercy to those who believe.

mistake me if im wrong, but when i was in school and in one of the few Religious Education lessons we were told:

if you mention mohammed, you have to say "Peace Be Upon Him"

and if we mentioned him in an essay we had to write "PBUH" or some shit like that?

is that still the done thing?
