LDS Apostle George Q. Cannon stated:

“I believe myself that Mahomed, whom the Christians deride and call a false prophet and stigmatize with a great many epithets — I believe that he was a man raised up by the Almighty, and inspired to a certain extent by Him to effect the reforms which he did in his land, and in the nations surrounding. He attacked idolatry, and restored the great and crowning idea that there is but one God. He taught that idea to his people, and reclaimed them from polytheism and from the heathenish practices into which they had fallen. I believe many men were inspired who lived after him and before him, who, nevertheless, did not have the Holy Priesthood, but were led by the Spirit of God to strive for a better condition of affairs and to live a purer and higher life than those by whom they were surrounded were living. But while this was the case, it was the Spirit of God that did it.”[3]

[3] George Q. Cannon, Journal of Discourses, 24:371.

Is a quote form the JoD considered “official”, “scripture”, both, etc??

I honestly don’t know.

P.S. pinging restornu, since she(he?) might know.

Oooo....I post from a lot of different sources, including the "official" ones.

It appears that you are casting your net way out there to try and deflect from the article that was posted at Cumorah.com.

Maybe I'll spend some time preparing another post of all the mormon/muslim articles that have been posted in mormontimes.com.

Well, given their mission statement and the information posted, what, exactly, is wrong with the quotations by LdS authorities?

If all you’re going to do is pick at nits BM, why don’t you start with your church?

Did you not notice the large “NOTE” at the very beginning of the article?

Needless to say, the quotations speak for themselves.
