Mohammedan

Mohammedan was a historical early modern term used to denote a follower of Muhammad, the Islamic prophet. It is used as both a noun and an adjective, meaning belonging or relating to, either Muhammad or the religion, doctrines, institutions and practices that he established. The word was formerly common in usage, but the terms Muslim and Islamic are more common today. Though sometimes used stylistically by some Muslims, a vast majority consider the term as archaic and a misnomer or even offensive, as it suggests that Muslims worship Muhammad himself instead of God.
