Never said such a thing, Mohammed CLEARLY states that he doesn't know when the world will end in several famous hadith.
In fact Mohammed said the world wouldn't end until several things happen not the other way around.
Some of which are already happening now. Like the arabs competing to build tall buildings.
If you want to challenge this point bring a source and then we can talk.
My source: Sahih Al-Bukhari hadith number 50
You make three points, correct me if I'm wrong:
For 1: The burden of proof is on you, you have failed to give any examples in your reply as I will now show.
For 2: The prophet made hundreds of predictions in his life time some of which have already come to pass. You are correct in that a single good prediction doesn't conclusively prove anything, however, having an unbroken record of good predictions with zero failed is proof enough for the pragmatist person.
And the prophet has never made a false prediction. Many so-called oracles have come after him and all of them have at least one failed prediction (Nostradamus for example).
For 3: You misunderstood the hadith, from the translation it says "your Last Hour" and the meaning stands in Arabic.
The meaning of their last hour is their own deaths not the calamity of Qiyama. And it came to pass that they all died before that young child.
This is well known for average muslims.
This is even made clear in the parentheses "he would see you dying".
A video a brother made with some predictions of the prophet that have already came to pass: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZIqd_-1Zus

what if it did end and this is actual purgatory?
You're full of crap. I'm Muslim and Mohammed was very clear in stating how the world would end. Including how the US will be three islands way before that due to an impact of a comet. The prophecies are very detailed. Google minor and major signs of qiyama
