It is true that the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) of the Muslim faith is depicted in Hell by Dante in the Divine Comedy. According to Dante, he resides in the 9th chasm of the 8th circle, where the “Sowers of Discord” go.
Catholics (which Dante was), at the time, believed that Islam was just a schismatic sect of Christianity, rather than a separate religion (similar to how Protestantism is viewed by the church today) – so Dante placed the Prophet (pbuh) with other “heretics and schism-causers.”
