I disagree - according to definiton, a lie requires the deliberate intent to deceive. So yes, something does become a lie when you learn it was not true, it was a falsehood before that. However, there is another element. In slander or libel, you don't have to deliberately know the statement is false to be gulty, if you recklessly disregard the truth or act negligently to ascertain whether something is true or not. In this case, Islam and Muslims are guilty of libel and slander. The Koran repeatedly makes false claims against Jews and Christians, such as Jews say Ezra is the Son of God, and Christians worship Mary as a god alongside Jesus and Allah, when any research would reveal that these things were not true., making the Koran guilty of libel. Yes, Muhammad could easily be convicted of slander for the things the Koran said, and Muslims guilty of libel and slander, since they recklessly disregard the truth and negligently ascertained whether they said was true. Not only is the Koran, Muhammad and Muslims guilty of libel and slander against Jews and Christians, Islam also libels and slanders Allah as well, by claiming such a disorganized book with a number of false statements came from Allah. To say the all-knowing Allah.did not know know Jews did not know Jews did not in fact say Ezra is the Son of God (sura 9:30) is to libel Allah. And to assert that Allah would deliberately deceive not only Jews.but his own followers and the entire world that Jesus died on the cross (sura 4:157), and did not around to.correcting his deception until 600 years later is a further.label on his character. ..
Well, all of Islam is based on just what one person, Muhammad, said, nobody else witnessed these revelations. And initially, Muhammad thought he was possed until his wife, who did not witness these revelations, convinced him otherwise. Since everything in Islam comes down to Muhammad, what is Muhammad's character that we should trust what he say?
1. Muhammad had 2 singing girls of Mecca, Fartana and Sara, murdered for criticizing him. (Ibn Kathir v.3 p. 403). Fartana was killed when tyr Muslims captured Mecca, but Sara ran away ans was later trampled ro death under a horse (Ibn Ishaq 819).
2. Muhammard had all the men of a Jewish village murdered and the women and children enslaves, and thei property taken. There is no evidence the people of the village were actively opposing Muhammad , Muhammad did this because he was directed to.

3. Had men tortured and killed. While the men were.rohbers and killers, Muhammad didn't just execute.them but tortured them first.

4. Had Kinana al-Rabi tortured and killed to find hidden wealth ("Life of the Prophet" translation by A. Guillaume of Ibn Hisham's biography of Muhammad, page 515)
5. Muhammad repeated received convenient revelations that applied only to him and were for his benefit. While Muslim men are allowed 4 wives, surah 33:50 makes an exception just for Muhammad in having more. And when Muhammad wanted to marry his adopted son's wife (after she was divorced from his adopted son), surah 33:37. The rational in the surah is nonsense, since it said it was to show that it was ok for men ronmarry the wives of their adopted sons, but Islam abolished adoption, so the surah only applies to Muhammad. And while in sura 4:3 tells men to treat their wives equally, sura 33:51 again gives an excrption to Muhammad.
If Muhammard had been alive today, he would have been charged with war crimes. The character of Muhammad is not one to trust a revelation from. And the number of very convenientn revelations that make exception for just Muhammad or only apply to him for a book that is supposed to be the eternal word of Allah makes it suspicious that revelations really are from God/Allah.
