Prophet Muhammad Did Not Know That He Was Going To Receive a Revelation From God
Abraham did not know that he was going to receive that revelation. Moses did not know that he was going to receive that revelation. Esa did not know that he was going to receive that revelation.
We can see again and again in history the same thing happened, a person is born and has no idea that he is going to become a Prophet of God, or receive a great revelation for humanity. Then later on, God puts him in situations and reveals to him, impresses on him, that he has been chosen to reveal a message to humanity.

Whenever the morality is low and humanitys ethics are low, God sends another Prophet, in this case Prophet Muhammad. He comes, and he brings the truth and the light back to humanity.
So the sun cannot stay behind the clouds forever. It does not matter how cloudy it gets.
***
The star of the morning is the sun. In The Revelation in the Bible, the morning star (sun) is the symbol of the highest spiritual realization, which is to be completely surrendered and submissive to The Plan of God.
***
So in a sense, Prophet Muhammad was the Messiah, was the son of God because the Spirit of God came through him. He always said, I am just a channel for God, I am just a slave, or servant of God. Whatever God tells me, I tell you.
***
It is difficult for people to accept a person as a Prophet when they can remember him as being one of them or because he seems exactly like themselves. It is one of the greatest problems for humans to overcome.
***
As Prophet Muhammad said, God never sent a Prophet who did not eat, sleep, walk, etc. So we can see that we cannot stop God. God is smarter than all of the humans who devise all these plans.
***
Look at every Great Prophet. Abraham, Moses, Christ, Muhammad, all were born from a woman. They were raised in the society. They were apparently regular people. Suddenly they realized their mission and then the message became the most important thing in their lives.
***
Even the Messiah, or those in Pure Consciousness, have to deal with physiological and safety needs on this earth and the manifestation of this earth.
***
If you study the life of any Prophet, there is a period when they are entirely cut off from humanity and they become completely alone and meditative by themselves before God reveals the revelation to them. It is just like Moses, who had to go through that desert before he could get to the other side and eventually become a Prophet. Abraham had to leave his family and probably be alone and walking around, not having too many friends or relatives or things that would keep him away from that silence within. And eventually he became a Prophet.
Esa had to go to the desert for forty days and forty nights. Forty probably means a long time, it does not mean exactly forty days. Prophet Muhammad used to go to the mountain, to the cave and meditate and be with himself, etc.
So, there is always a period of silence, being away and with the self. Meditating, being discerning, and deeply understanding the self is very important
