The Messengers sent as a great blessing on their communities, called people to the true path, and were means whereby they emerged out of the darkness into the light.
They preached the laws of our Lord who created the entire universe out of nothing.
Our Lord also bestowed miracles on some prophets, sometimes to protect them from the snares of the deniers and idolaters, and sometimes to be a means whereby people would come to faith.
For example, the snares of the deniers who wished to cast the prophet Abraham into the flames were neutralized by Allah's commanding that the fire to be cool.
The staff held in the hand of the prophet Moses turned into a dragon that swallowed what Pharaoh's sorcerers had produced, and then resumed its former appearance.
The prophet Moses also struck the Red Sea with his staff, and the people of Israel were able to escape Pharaoh's persecution by crossing to the other side when the sea parted as a result.
By Allah's leave, the prophet Jesus restored dead people to life, and cured the sick by touching them.
Many other miracles are also reported in the Quran.
These miracles, a great blessing from our Lord, had a huge impact on people.
They further increased believers' fervor and enthusiasm, and also caused a great many people to believe.
Our beloved prophet, peace be upon him, whom Allah has made a role model for all mankind, with his superior virtues and his every word and deed,
also performed many miracles, by Allah's leave throughout the course of his life.
.
The verses of the Qur'an and the Hadith contain several miracles performed by our Prophet, peace be upon him.
By Allah's leave and by preaching Islamic moral virtues in the finest manner possible,
he was a means whereby a people who used to bury their children alive came to be compassionate and affectionate towards everyone.
Again, through the Prophet, peace be upon him, a community that once worshipped the idols they made with their own hands,
came to believe in the one true Allah.
The verses of the Qur'an he preached as a guide to salvation raised the Bedouin from ignorance,
to the highest levels of civilization.
These are all miracles worked by Allah through our Prophet, peace be upon him.
The way that the Prophet, peace be upon him, survived and nothing untoward befell him,
even though he always fought in the front rank during his 23 years of active struggle.
And the battles forced upon him by the most fanatical and hate-filled deniers
is another of his miracles.
The miracles of our beloved Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him,
represent glad tidings for all Muslims
and blessing from help from Allah.
These miracles will further increase the faith of those who already believe and bind them
still tighter to the noble Qur'an,
the divine scripture sent down to our Prophet, peace be upon him, by Allah.
According to Islamic and historical sources,
our Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him,
was honored with the rank of Prophet at about the age of 40.
However, a number of miraculous events had already taken place
before the Prophet, peace be upon him, began receiving his revelation.
One of these miracles was the way his dreams came true.
According to the traditions, these true dreams lasted around six months.
The great Islamic scholar Imam al-Bukhari describes these dreams as follows.
Aisha narrated the first thing with which the revelation began for the Messenger of Allah
was correct dreams and sleep.
He never saw a dream but that it came like the breaking of the dawn.
The way that all our beloved Prophet's, peace be upon him, dreams came true
over the six months before he was honored with the rank of Prophet
is one of the proofs that he has been specially chosen by Allah.
Islamic scholars describe this state of affairs
as Allah having prepared the Prophet, peace be upon him,
for his great task in his sleep.
Following these true visions and with the revelation he received from Allah,
the Prophet, peace be upon him, was made a guide to salvation for all mankind.
In the Hadiths, we are told that when the Prophet, peace be upon him, reached his forties,
he would frequently enter the Ghad Haira, the cave of Haira,
on Jabal An-Nul, the mountain of light,
some 12 kilometers from Mecca,
and remain there alone.
In the month of Ramadan, of the third year of his solitude in the cave,
Allah bestowed the Prophethood upon Muhammad, peace be upon him.
By Allah's leave, the angel Gabriel appeared to the Prophet, peace be upon him,
and revealed to him verses of the Qur'an.
This is how the event is described in the Qur'an.
I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Satan.
Truly, it is revelation sent down by the Lord of all the worlds.
The faithful spirit brought it down to your heart,
so you would be one of the warners.
In another verse, it is revealed that Allah will have the Prophet, peace be upon him,
learn the Qur'an by the heart.
The way that he thus learned all the verses of the Qur'an
is one of the miracles bestowed on the Prophet, peace be upon him,
by our Lord.
Until his death,
our Prophet, peace be upon him,
called people to Allah and His way
with great determination.
Our Prophet's greatest miracle is the noble Qur'an.
Allah sent down the Qur'an, a guide to mankind,
14 centuries ago,
and called upon all mankind to attain salvation by adhering to it.
The perfection of its literary language,
its matchless style,
and the wisdom it contains
are all sure and certain proof
that the Qur'an is the word of Allah.
Poetry and literature were highly advanced in Arabia at that time.
There were poets and people
who made the most excellent use of the Arabic language.
Those members of the tribe
with the greatest rhetorical abilities
were regarded as national heroes.
Due to the importance they attached to literature,
they wrote the Mu'allakats,
or the suspended odes,
and letters of gold and hung them
on the walls of the Ka'bah.
Some people would preach sermons
on such occasions as stairs.
Even the peasant people known as Bedouins
would recite poetry
and give speeches of
as fine a quality as the poets in the cities.
These poems and speeches
had a powerful effect on people.
It was at such a time as this
that Allah sent the noble Qur'an
down to the heart of the Prophet,
peace be upon him.
With the Qur'an,
the Prophet, peace be upon him,
gave the wisest literary response
to the finest orators
and the best-known poets
who made the best possible use of language.
Although opposed by many orators,
he overcame them
through the mercy of our Lord.
There is no doubt
that this was on account
of the matchless literary beauty,
wisdom, and impact
manifested by our Lord in the Qur'an.
I seek refuge in Allah
from the accursed Satan.
This is the word
of a noble messenger.
It is not the word of a poet,
how little faith you have.
Nor the word of a fortune teller,
how little heed you pay.
It is a revelation
from the Lord of all the worlds.
In addition to these features,
the Qur'an also contains
many miraculous aspects
confirming that it is
the word of Allah.
One of these is the way
that certain scientific truths,
which we have only learned
through the 20th and 21st century technology,
were revealed in the Qur'an
1400 years ago.
A number of scientific facts
reported in various verses
of the Qur'an
in an exceptionally clear
and wise manner,
were only discovered
in our own day
using the latest technology.
These facts,
which could not possibly
have been scientifically determined
at the time
when the Qur'an was sent down,
once again prove it
to be divine.
In the 7th century,
when the Qur'an was sent down,
Arab society held countless,
nonsensical,
and superstitious beliefs
on scientific matters.
Lacking the technology
with which to examine nature
and the universe,
the Arab's believed in legends
handed on from one generation
to the next.
Revealed at a time
when people knew very little
about astronomy,
physics,
or biology,
the Qur'an contains
a great deal of information
on a great many subjects,
from the creation of universe
to human beings,
from the structure
of the atmosphere
to the balances
in the universe.
Recent scientific discoveries
make it clearer
just how miraculous
this information is.
One of the most important features
of the Qur'an
is the way that it has come down
to the present day
in exactly the same form
as it was revealed
to the Prophet,
peace be upon him,
and has never changed
in any way.
Allah sets this out
in the Qur'an.
I seek refuge in Allah
from the accursed Satan.
It is we who have
sent down the reminder
and we who will preserve it.
The scriptures before the Qur'an
have been distorted
and not preserved
in their original forms.
Various additions
have been made to them
by human beings.
Some parts have been altered
and others removed entirely.
During the revelation
of the Qur'an,
each time a revelation
was given to the Prophet,
peace be upon him,
our Lord miraculously
enabled him to memorize it.
Immediately afterwards,
the Prophet,
peace be upon him,
had the Qur'an written down
by blessed members
of his community
known as
Scribes of Revelation.
Thus,
the Qur'an was preserved
in written form.
The Qur'an was compiled
in one volume
in the time of the blessed Abu Bakr
.
Multiple copies were produced
during the time of the blessed Uthman
and these were distributed
to major Islamic cities.
The Qur'an is the revelation of Allah
sent as a guide to the true path
for all mankind,
which introduces people
to their own lower selves,
provides information
that nobody
who has ever lived
or will ever live
in the future
and no jinn
can ever know.
The numbers
and dates
in which
are all absolutely accurate.
It also possesses
an unmatched
literary richness.
So great a miracle
is the Qur'an
that Allah
instructed the Prophet,
peace be upon him,
to say the following
to those who became arrogant
and refused to listen to it.
I seek refuge in Allah
from the accursed Satan.
Say,
if both men and jinn
banded together
to produce the like
of this Qur'an,
they could never produce
anything like it.
Even if they backed
each other up,
we have
variegated
throughout this Qur'an
all kinds of examples
for people,
but most people
spurn anything
but disbelief.
The Moral Virtues
of the Prophet,
peace be upon him,
are so sublime
that nobody can deny
or ignore them.
This blessed individual
possessed all the
superior virtues
revealed in the Qur'an
and Beloved of Allah.
He is a role model
and guide
for all the worlds.
The Prophet,
peace be upon him,
preached the message
of Islam
in the very finest manner
and behaved
with the greatest
determination
on the subject.
Although he was
subjected to terrible
oppression
and also offered
a great deal
if he would stop
preaching the moral
values of the faith,
he nevertheless
rejected every proposal
put to him.
He always held
Allah's good pleasure
and the interests
of Islam
and Muslims
above all else.
Throughout his life,
the Prophet,
peace be upon him,
guided people
to the true path,
instructed his companions
and struggled
to turn the idolaters
to the true path
by constantly engaging
in dialogue with them.
As a result
of his instruction,
people living
in a desert environment
with very ignorant
manners and values
turned into virtuous people
cleansed
by the light of faith.
This is a great miracle.
Ibrahim ibn Muhammad,
a grandson
of the blessed Ali,
radiallahu ta'ala,
reports as follows
in describing
the Prophet,
peace be upon him.
Whenever Ali described
the noble features
of the Messenger
of Allah,
he used to say,
he was the most generous
and the most truthful.
He was the most kind-hearted.
Any person who saw him
suddenly would become awed.
Anyone who came
in close contact with him
and knew his excellent character
loved him.
The one who described him
said,
I have not seen anyone
like him before
or after him.
Even before he began preaching,
the message,
he was known
for his trustworthiness
from a very early age.
He was known
to the community
in which he lived
as Al-Amin,
the trustworthy one,
and everyone was agreed
as to his honesty
and reliability.
People in his community
trusted him enough
to entrust anything to him
and chose him
as a judge
in the resolution
of a great many problems.
They always praised
his virtues,
good manners,
and justice.
Since the Prophet,
peace be upon him,
was a highly intelligent individual
possessed of great foresight,
all these qualities
immediately attracted
the notice
of everyone who saw him.
Anyone speaking with him
or participating
in conversation with him
and listening to the voice
of his conscience
understood his extraordinary nature
and saw many clear proofs
of his prophethood.
His love,
consideration,
and affection,
which bound those around him
to the religion
and warmed their hearts
to faith,
represent a moral superiority
that all Muslims
need to reflect on.
The Prophet Muhammad,
peace be upon him,
is the unlettered prophet
whose coming is revealed
in the Torah
and the Gospel.
When Allah revealed
the Qur'an to him,
he could neither read
nor write.
this feature of the Prophet,
peace be upon him,
is one of the most important
proofs of his status
as a prophet,
as revealed in one verse.
I seek refuge in Allah
from the accursed Satan.
You never recited
any book before it,
nor did you write
one down
with your right hand.
If you had,
the purveyors of falsehood
would have voiced
their doubts.
Although the Prophet,
peace be upon him,
had not read the Torah
and the Gospel,
he knew what they commanded
and revealed.
He also knew
the history
of societies
that had gone before.
This,
of course,
would have been impossible
unless revealed
by Allah.
The Qur'an
contained a treasure trove
of knowledge
about the main subjects
in all the divine scriptures.
Stories regarding
the Prophets of the past,
fates and the beliefs
accompanying them,
ancient history,
civilization and culture,
economics,
politics and ethics.
The Prophet Muhammad,
peace be upon him,
was naturally unaware
of any of this
before appointed
as a messenger.
Those familiar with him
were well aware
that he lacked
all such knowledge.
The way that he appeared
before the non-believers
with such a book,
despite being illiterate,
was the greatest proof
of his Prophethood.
The knowledge
and the message
of the Prophet,
peace be upon him,
who had not studied
at any school,
are just among
the miraculous aspects
of this blessed individual.
In one verse,
Allah reveals
that he was not
I seek refuge
in Allah
from the accursed Satan.
Say, mankind,
I am the messenger
of Allah to you all,
of him to whom
the kingdom of the heavens
and the earth belongs.
There is no deity
but him.
He gives life
and causes to die.
So believe in Allah
and his messenger,
the unlettered Prophet
who believes in Allah
and his words
and follow him
so that hopefully
you will be guided.
Despite having a number
of corrupted beliefs
and practices,
Jews and Christians,
the people of the book
nevertheless adhere
to the divine faith
sent down
from the presence
of Allah.
Allah has revealed
that the Quran
was sent down
as the final scripture,
a confirmation
of the other divine texts.
I seek refuge
in Allah
from the accursed Satan.
Believe in what
I have sent down,
confirming what is with you.
Do not be the first
to reject it
and do not sell
my signs
for a paltry price.
Have fear
of me alone.
Judaic scholars
and Christians
who knew
of the features
of the illiterate Prophet
whose coming
was foretold
in the Torah
immediately acknowledged
the Prophet Muhammad
peace be upon him.
It is revealed
in the Quran
that the people
of the book
will recognize
our Prophet
peace be upon him
in the same way
that they do
their own children,
that some of them
will nevertheless
deny him
and that those
who fail to believe him
will eventually
suffer disappointment.
I seek refuge
in Allah
from the accursed Satan.
Those who we have
given the book
recognize it
as they recognize
their own children.
As for those
who have lost
their own selves,
they have no faith.
It is certain
the Prophet
unable to read
or write
obtained his knowledge
of the people
of Israel
through being given
it by our Lord.
When these verses
were read
Judaic scholars
saw that the Prophet
peace be upon him
was the messenger
whose coming
was awaited.
The people
of the book
witnessed
that he spoke
the truth
and was Allah's messenger.
As we have seen,
revelation of the coming
and attributes
of the Prophet
peace be upon him
in the scriptures
of the people
of the book
is yet another
of the miracles
regarding this
blessed individual
who was made
superior to all
the worlds.
The believing
people of the book
who used
their consciences
in evaluating
what they saw
once again
confirmed
this manifest
truth.
I seek refuge
in Allah
from the accursed
Satan.
Those who follow
the messenger,
the unlettered
Prophet,
whom they find
written down
with them
in the Torah
and the gospel,
commanding them
to do right
and forbidding
them to do wrong,
making good things
lawful for them
and bad things
forbidden for them,
relieving them
of their heavy loads
and the chains
which were around them.
Those who believe
in him
and honor him
and help him
and follow the light
that has been
sent down with him,
they are the ones
who are successful.
The Night Journey
and the Ascent
to Heaven
is one of the Prophet's
peace be upon him
greatest miracles.
It is reported
in the Quran
that the Prophet
peace be upon him
made a miraculous
night time journey
to the Masjid Al-Aqsa.
Almighty Allah
reveals this journey
in these words
in the first verse
of Surah Al-Isra.
I seek refuge in Allah
from the accursed Satan.
Glory be to him
who took his servant
on a journey by night
from the Masjid Al-Haram
to the Masjid Al-Aqsa
whose surroundings
we have blessed
in order to show him
some of our signs.
He is the all-hearing,
the all-seeing.
The Arabic word
Aqsa means
far off
or most distant.
They are
1,235 kilometers
apart.
The Prophet
peace be upon him
was in Mecca
when the miracle
in question
took place.
He was carried
from Mecca
to the Masjid Al-Aqsa
in Jerusalem.
The Hadiths provide
considerable detail
about what the Prophet
peace be upon him
saw during this journey.
It is reported
that he met
other Prophets
and saw
Paradise
and Hell.
It is related
that the Prophet
peace be upon him
was raised
to the heaven
from the region
around the Masjid Al-Aqsa
in Jerusalem.
The site is known
as the
Kubat Al-Sakra
or
Dome of the Rock.
There is a rock
at the heart
of the Kubat Al-Sakra
known as
the Foundation Stone.
This is the rock
from where the Prophet
peace be upon him
is agreed
to have ascended
to heaven.
The interior
of the rock
is hollow.
That is why
looked at
in cross-section
the rock
gives the appearance
of being suspended
in the air
which is why
it is known
as the Foundation Stone.
According to
Islamic sources
because of their
low intelligence
the miracle
of the night journey
and the ascent
to heaven
was met with
skepticism
by the pagans
and unbelievers
because they doubted
that the Prophet
peace be upon him
was telling the truth
the unbelievers
set about
investigating
whether the event
had actually
taken place
or not.
Our Lord
once again
humiliated
the unbelievers
and pagans
because of this
unpleasing attitude
of theirs
and turned
everything they
mocked
against them.
This is revealed
as follows
in the Hadith
they said
will you describe
the Masjid
al-Aqsa
to us
some of them
had been there
and seen it
the Prophet
related
I began describing
the mosque
and describing
some places
I fell into doubt
at this
the mosque
was brought
and placed
in front
of the house
of Iqal
or Aqil
I looked
at it
and began
describing it
after the
Prophet's
address
they said
as for the
description
by Allah
he was correct
the Prophet
peace be upon him
who had never
in his life
been to the area
where the Masjid
al-Aqsa
was
provided a full
response
to the questions
of the pagans
this is a great
mercy
and miracle
of our Lord
through this
miracle
so the enthusiasm
excitement
and devotion
to our Prophet
peace be upon him
of the faithful
were still further
one piece of information
about this miracle
imparted
in the Quran
is the Prophet's
peace be upon him
ascent
to the
Sirat al-Muntaha
this means
the final boundary
where the knowledge
of created entities
ends
and beyond which
they can go no further
this miracle
is described
as follows
in
Surat al-Najm
I seek refuge
in Allah
from the accursed
Satan
he saw him
again
another time
by the lot tree
of the final limit
beside which
is the garden
of refuge
when that
which covered
the lot tree
covered it
his eye
did not waver
nor did he look
away
he saw some
of the greatest
signs of his Lord
as we have seen
the mirage
is a great miracle
bestowed
and our beloved
Prophet
peace be upon him
by Almighty Allah
it is a superior proof
given by our Lord
to our Prophet
peace be upon him
in the face
of the unbelievers
another of our
Prophets
peace be upon a miracle
is his
cleaving
of the moon
Allah has revealed
this extraordinary
event
in the Quran
and many Hadith
concerning this miracle
have also come down
to us
this is how it is
revealed
in Surah Al-Kamer
I seek refuge
in Allah
from the accursed
Satan
the hour has drawn
near
and the moon
has split
if they see a sign
they turn away
saying
there is no end
to this witchcraft
they have denied
the truth
and followed
their whims
and desires
but everything
has its time
the Hadith
informs us
that the splitting
of the moon
took place
in Mecca
they also tell us
that the people
of Mecca
themselves
asked for this
miracle
to take place
Bukhari
and Muslim
related from
Anas
he said
the people
of Mecca
asked Allah's
messenger
to show them
signs
miracles
and he showed
them
the splitting
of the moon
twice
according to accounts
one part
of the moon
was seen
on one side
of the mount
Tyra
and the other
part
on the other
side
after which
they
two halves
came back
together again
following this
cleaving
of the moon
the pagans
were speechless
in the face
of such a great
miracle
and this time
accused our prophet
peace be upon him
of casting a spell
over them
this characteristic
of people
who refuse
to believe
no matter
what miracles
they may witness
is revealed
as follows
in the Quran
I seek refuge
in Allah
from the accursed
Satan
even if we
opened up
to them
a door
into heaven
and they spent
the day
ascending
through it
they would
only say
our eyesight
is befuddled
or rather
we have been
put under a spell
all this information
once again
goes to show
that the prophet
Muhammad
peace be upon him
the holy messenger
of Allah
was selected
over and above
all men
that Allah
revealed
the final scripture
the holy Quran
to him
and that he was
blessed
with miracles
with which
to soften
people's hearts
and lead them
towards fate
the cleaving
of the moon
is one such miracle
we must not
forget that the moon
which like all
other entities
and bodies
in the universe
is under our
Lord's control
can be seen
in the form
and in the event
that Allah
so chooses
as we are told
in the Quran
it is enough
for Allah
to say
be
in order
for any event
to take place
I seek refuge
in Allah
from the accursed
Satan
his command
when he desires
a thing
is just
to say to it
be
and it is
one of the miracles
that our prophet
peace be upon him
showed his community
was the way
that his prayers
were heeded
our Lord
listened to the
sincere prayers
of our prophet
peace be upon him
and in that way
the companions
and those around
were able to witness
miracles
of various kinds
for example
the hadith
contained
detailed descriptions
of the way
that our Lord
heeded the prophets
peace be upon him
prayers
for rain
and abundance
one hadith
related from
Anas
by Al-Bukhari
and Muslim states
Anas narrated
a man entered
the mosque
on Friday
while the prophet
was addressing
the people
the man said
messenger of Allah
our wealth
has been destroyed
and we have no
transport to the
marketplace
supplicate for rain
for us
the prophet
raised his hands
and said
O Allah
give us rain
O Allah
give us rain
O Allah
give us rain
by Allah
at that time
there were no clouds
in the sky
and there was
no house
or building
between us
and the mountain
from behind
the mountain
came a cloud
looking like a shield
by the time
it reached
the middle
of the sky
it burst
and started
to rain
the hadith
also tells us
that our prophet
peace be upon him
gave believers
much advice
concerning their health
security
and faith
and always treated them
with affection
and compassion
one of the consequences
of this love
and consideration
our prophet
peace be upon him
had for his community
was the way
he prayed for them
on a great many subjects
by the will
of Allah
those prayers
were always
a source
of great
well-being
and abundance
for all his companions
the hadith
inform us
that the prophet
peace be upon him
prayed for his companions
to be blessed
with long lives
and that those prayers
were duly accepted
the messenger
of Allah
prayed
for Al-Bariqi
he reached
such a level
in trade
that he believed
he could even
make money
from buying soil
he stroked
the head
of another companion
and prayed
Allah make him beautiful
and make that beauty
long lasting
and that companion's
face remained
young and handsome
until he died
the prayers
of our prophets
peace be upon him
were a means
whereby abundance
health
peace
and security
were bestowed
on believers
in the Quran
Allah says the following
about the prayers
our prophet
peace be upon him
said for believers
I seek refuge in Allah
from the accursed Satan
pray for them
your prayers
bring relief to them
Allah is all hearing
all knowing
in this film
we have seen
some of the miracles
of our prophet
peace be upon him
whose superior virtues
deep faith
words and deeds
have made him
a role model
for all
in the middle
of a dangerous
and pagan community
our prophet
peace be upon him
both preached
the faith
and call on people
to have faith
and follow him
and also waged
a determined struggle
against those
who did not believe
the leaders
of the unbelievers
planned to kill
the messenger of Allah
and laid snares
for him
yet despite
all these traps
and deceits
our prophet
peace be upon him
continued to wage
his struggle
unharmed
and in a miraculous
manner
in addition
by Allah's leave
our prophet
peace be upon him
came to possess
knowledge of hidden
matters
unknown to anyone else
in a number
of spheres
and he described
events
that would only
take place
1400 years later
as if he had
actually seen them
with his own eyes
Allah's miraculous
protection
of our prophet
peace be upon him
and the hidden
knowledge
imparted to him
are matters
we shall be looking
at in more detail
in the second part
of this film
it must not
be forgotten
that every one
of the miracles
of our lord
showed to the
prophet
peace be upon him
was created
at his choosing
in the manner

of all that

and a mercy
for people
who believe
in their
