The people assembled; Mahomet called the hill to come to him, again and again; and when the hill stood still, he was never a whit abashed, but said, If the hill will not come to Mahomet, Mahomet will go to the hill.\nIt was published in John Ray's 1670 book of English proverbs, The more complete reading of the essay makes it clear that Sir Francis Bacon meant the example to be disparaging, as he refers to “…mountebanks for the natural body, so are there mountebanks for the politic body…\" in the context of his discussion “of boldness”, or what might be described in modern, political terms as brazening out a scandal or failure.\nAlthough the phrase is widely associated with Muhammad, the 6th-century prophet of Islam who lived in Arabia, there is no written or oral tradition tracing it back to him. There is, however, a phrase in Turkish—gđ—that has no reference to Muhammad. (An alternative version can be found on the Turkish Wiktionary.) It is known as one of the gđ, or \"common sayings\", which exist in modern Turkish but are thought to have much older origins.",
