God promised to protect Muhammad (
5:67) but said He would cut his aorta if he invented things (
69:44). And when the Prophet died, he felt as if his aorta was cut. A woman served him poisoned sheep meat, and he died of it (buk
3169, buk
4249, buk
4512, buk
4428). He also asked to expel all pagans from the peninsula (buk
3053)
O Messenger, announce that which has been revealed to you from your Lord, and if you do not, then you have not conveyed His message. And Allah will protect you from the people. Indeed, Allah does not guide the disbelieving people. - Quran Al-Ma'idah(The table served) 5:67 (islam)
[44]And if Muhammad had made up about Us some [false] sayings,
[45]We would have seized him by the right hand;
[46]Then We would have cut from him the aorta. - Quran Al-Haqqah(The Sure Reality) 69:44-46 (islam)
Hadith Al Bukhari 3169 (en en2) Mohamed's death (11) We wanted to know if you are a prophet then the poisoned sheep would not harm you.
When Khaibar was conquered, a roasted poisoned sheep was presented to the Prophet (ﷺ) as a gift (by
the Jews). The Prophet (ﷺ) ordered, "Let all the Jews who have been here, be assembled before me." The
Jews were collected and the Prophet (ﷺ) said (to them), "I am going to ask you a question. Will you tell
the truth?" They said, "Yes." The Prophet (ﷺ) asked, "Who is your father?" They replied, "So-and-so." He
said, "You have told a lie; your father is so-and-so." They said, "You are right." He said, "Will you
now tell me the truth, if I ask you about something?" They replied, "Yes, O Abu Al-Qasim; and if we
should tell a lie, you can realize our lie as you have done regarding our father." On that he asked,
"Who are the people of the (Hell) Fire?" They said, "We shall remain in the (Hell) Fire for a short
period, and after that you will replace us." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You may be cursed and humiliated in it!
By Allah, we shall never replace you in it." Then he asked, "Will you now tell me the truth if I ask you
a question?" They said, "Yes, O Abu Al-Qasim." He asked, "Have you poisoned this sheep?" They
said, "Yes." He asked, "What made you do so?" They said, "We wanted to know if you were a liar in
which case we would get rid of you, and if you are a prophet then the poison would not harm you." - Hadith Al Bukhari 3169 (islam)

Hadith Al Bukhari 3053 (en en2) Mohamed's death (11) Mohamed asked to write his last will and wished to expel the pagans from the Peninsula
Ibn `Abbas said, "Thursday! What (great thing) took place on Thursday!" Then he started weeping till
his tears wetted the gravels of the ground . Then he said, "On Thursday the illness of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)
was aggravated and he said, "Fetch me writing materials so that I may have something written to you
after which you will never go astray." The people (present there) differed in this matter and people
should not differ before a prophet. They said, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) is seriously sick.' The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"Let me alone, as the state in which I am now, is better than what you are calling me for." The Prophet (ﷺ)
on his death-bed, gave three orders saying, "Expel the pagans from the Arabian Peninsula, respect and
give gifts to the foreign delegates as you have seen me dealing with them." I forgot the third (order)"
(Ya'qub bin Muhammad said, "I asked Al-Mughira bin `Abdur-Rahman about the Arabian Peninsula
and he said, 'It comprises Mecca, Medina, Al-Yama-ma and Yemen." Ya'qub added, "And Al-Arj, the
beginning of Tihama.") - Hadith Al Bukhari 3053 (islam)

Hadith Abu Dawud 4512 (en en2) Mohamed's death (11) When Mohamed died He felt the pain from the piece of sheep he had eaten at Khaybar
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would accept a present, but would not accept alms (sadaqah).
And Wahb bin Baqiyyah narrated to us, elsewhere, from Khalid, from Muhammad ibn Amr said on the authority of AbuSalamah, and he did not mention the name of Abu Hurairah: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to accept presents but not alms (sadaqah).
This version adds: So a Jewess presented him at Khaybar with a roasted sheep which she had poisoned. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ate of it and the people also ate.
He then said: Take away your hands (from the food), for it has informed me that it is poisoned. Bishr ibn al-Bara' ibn Ma'rur al-Ansari died.
So he (the Prophet) sent for the Jewess (and said to her): What motivated you to do the work you have done?
She said: If you were a prophet, it would not harm you; but if you were a king, I should rid the people of you. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) then ordered regarding her and she was killed. He then said about the pain of which he died: I continued to feel pain from the morsel which I had eaten at Khaybar. This is the time when it has cut off my aorta.

“I asked
‘Aishah:
‘O mother! Tell me about the sickness of the Messenger of
Allah
(ﷺ).’ She said: ‘He felt pain and started to spit (over his
body), and we began to compare his spittle to the spittle of a person
eating raisins. Like a person eating raisins and spitting out the
seeds. He used to go around among his wives, but when he became ill,
he asked them permission to stay in the house of ‘Aishah and that
they
should come to him in turns.’ She said: ‘The Messenger of
Allah (ﷺ)
entered upon me, (supported) between two men, with his
feet making
lines along the ground. One of them was ‘Abbas.’ I
told Ibn ‘Abbas
this Hadith and he said: ‘Do you know who the
other man was whom
‘Aishah did not name? He was ‘Ali bin Abu
Talib.’” - Hadith Ibn Majah 1618 (islam)
Book 6, Hadith 186
Vol. 1, Book 6, Hadith 1618
On the authority of his father: Umm Mubashshir said to the Prophet (ﷺ) during the sickness of which he died: What do you think about your illness, Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)? I do not think about the illness of my son except the poisoned sheep of which he had eaten with you at Khaybar. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: And I do not think about my illness except that. This is the time when it cut off my aorta.
Abu Dawud said: Sometime 'Abd al-Razzaq transmitted this tradition, omitting the link of the Companion, from Ma'mar, from al-Zuhri, from the Prophet (ﷺ), and sometimes he transmitted it from al-Zuhri from 'Abd al-Rahman b. Ka'b b. Malik, 'Abd al-Rahman mentioned that Ma'mar sometimes transmitted the tradition in a mursal form (omitting the link of the Companion), and they recorded it. And all this is correct with us. 'Abd al-Razzaq said: When Ibn al-Mubarak came to Ma'mar, he transmitted the traditions in a musnad form (with a perfect chain) which he transmitted as mauquf traditions (statements of the Companions and not of the Prophet).
