Some evidence for the truth of islam
The Scientific Miracles in the Holy Qur’an
The Qur’an,
which was revealed
fourteen centuries ago, men- tioned facts only recently
discovered or proven by scientists. This proves without doubt that the Qur’an must be
the literal word of God, revealed by Him to the Prophet Muhammad
Some examples follow
In the Holy
Qur’an, God speaks about the stages of man’s embryonic development
We created man from an extract of clay. Then We made him as a drop in a
place of settlement, firmly fixed.
Then We made the drop into an alaqah (leech, suspended thing, and blood clot), then
We made the
alaqah into a mudghah (chewed substance)... 1
(Qur’an, 23:12-14)
almost
all of this knowl- edge was not discovered
until many centuries later. This proves to me that Muhammad must have been a
messenger of God.”
This is how the Qur’an has described mountains. God has said in the Qur’an
Have We not made the earth as a bed, and the mountains as pegs?
(Qur’an, 78:6-7)
Modern earth sciences have proven that mountains have deep roots under the surface
of the ground
the
Origin of the Universe
God has said in the Qur’an
Have not those who disbelieved known that the
heavens and the earth were
one connected entity, then
We separated them?... (Qur’an,
21:30)
Dr. Alfred Kroner is one
of the world’s renowned geologists.
He is Professor of Geology and the Chairman of the Department of Geology at the
Institute of Geosciences, Johannes Gutenberg University, Mainz, Germany. He
said: “Thinking where Muham- mad
came from . . . I think it is almost
impossible that he could have known about things like the common origin of the universe, because scientists have only
found out within the last few years, with very complicated and advanced
technological methods
the Cerebrum
God
has said in the Qur’an about one of the evil unbelievers who forbade the
Prophet Muhammad from praying at the Kaaba
No!
If he does not stop, We will take him by the naseyah (front of the head), a lying, sinful naseyah (front of the head)! (Qur’an, 96:15-16)
Why did the
Qur’an describe the front of the head as being
lying and sinful
Scientists have only discovered these functions of the prefron- tal area in the last sixty
years, according to Professor Keith L. Moore
Seas and Rivers
Modern Science has discovered
that in the places where two different
seas meet, there is a barrier between them. This barrier divides the two seas
so that each sea has its own temperature, salinity, and density
The Holy Qur’an
mentioned that there
is a barrier between two seas
that meet and that they do not transgress. God has said
He has set free the two seas meeting to- gether. There
is a barrier between them. They do not transgress. (Qur’an, 55:19-20)
God has said in the Qur’an
Have you not seen how God makes the clouds move gently,
then joins them together,
then makes them into a stack, and then you see
the rain come out of it. (Qur’an,
24:43)
Meteorologists have only recently
come to know these details of cloud formation, structure, and
function by using advanced equipment like planes, satellites, computers,
balloons
The Great Challenge to Produce One Chapter Like the Chapters of the Holy Qur’an
God
has said in the Qur’an:
And if you are in doubt
about what We have revealed (the Qur’an) to Our worshiper (Mu- hammad ), then produce a chapter like it, and
call your witnesses (supporters and help- ers) besides God if you are
truthful
that the Arabs at the time
of Muhammad were a very eloquent people who used to compose beautiful and
excellent poetry
but they failed to do so
Biblical Prophecies on the Advent of Muhammad , the Prophet of Islam
The Biblical prophecies
on the advent of the Prophet Muham-
mad are evidence of the truth of Islam for people who believe in the Bible.
In Deuteronomy 18, Moses stated that God told him: “I will
raise up for them a prophet
like you from
among their brothers; I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell them
everything I command him. If anyone
does not listen to my
words that the
prophet speaks in my name, I myself will call him to account.” (Deuteronomy
18:18-19)3\\
The Verses in the Qur’an That Mention Future Events Which Later Came to Pass
An example
of the events foretold in the Qur’an
is the victory of the Romans over the Persians within three to nine years after the Romans were defeated by the Persians. God has said
in the Qur’an:
The Romans have been defeated in the near-
est land (to the Arabian Peninsula), and they, after their defeat, will be victorious within bedd’
(three to nine) years.... (Qur’an,
30:2-4)
Miracles Performed by the Prophet Muhammad
Many miracles were
performed by the Prophet Muhammad by God’s permission. These miracles were
witnessed by many people. For example
When
the unbelievers in Makkah asked the Prophet Muham- mad to show them a miracle, he showed
them the splitting of the moon
The Simple Life of Muhammad
If we compare the life of Muhammad before his mission as a prophet and his life after he began his mission as a prophet, we will conclude that it is beyond reason to think that Muhammad was a false prophet, who claimed prophethood to attain material gains, greatness, glory, or power
His life was
an amazing model of simplicity and humbleness
