you have 60 seconds for each question you know the rules we want short and clear answers let's begin what is a miracle the word miracle means incapacitating therefore it means things that people or other beings are incapable of doing that is things that are impossible for them to do we call them miracles can a person perform a miracle man can't perform miracles incapacitate isn't the prophet a human being the prophet didn't do it with his own power and might in the quran there are events such as the splitting of the moon fire not burning abraham mirage the ascension and the birth of jesus without a father they don't seem real to me why am i compelled to believe them actually miracles are

still happening right now in front of our eyes but since we're so used to these events we don't see them as miracles what do i mean now the birth of a baby a bee making honey these are miracles too but these seem normal to us ordinary and simple events let me give an example straight away i'm an artist and i draw something called fire in my painting and then whenever the people living in my painting approach that fire i personally intervene and hurt them now that this is the case can i choose not to hurt those who approach that fire if i wish yes i can why because it is up to me to burn them or not therefore because all the events taking place in the universe right now are directly dependent

on the will of god almighty actually there's no difference between the fires burning someone or not but since god uses something like fire to burn we see that it can't be the opposite because he himself created the event there in that way so is it that easy to understand miracles is it such a simple issue as i explained in the example of the artist if you base these events on a willful being it becomes even easier to understand the events or we can change the example say i draw the moon round in my painting if i wish i can divide this moon in two and put it back together this is very easy for me isn't that right why because someone willful is already holding it together someone willful can

separate it very easily there's no abnormality in this but as i said because we always keep seeing certain things in the same way we think of them as ordinary and simple it is normal for the bee to make honey and the moon to be like this right now how can we accept these as miracles we would be surprised if a honey bee made cherry jam we would call it a miracle it would be on the news it would be a phenomenon right so why doesn't the same thing happen when a bee makes honey what's the difference if bees had made cherry jam all her life then it would seem unusual to us to get honey am i right or think of it this way we came to this world and the satellite we call the moon is an object in two

parts okay it's two separate pieces you can think of it like it's split and we've seen the moon like this all our lives and then the quran came and said the prophet muhammad peace be upon him brought the two pieces of moon together with his indication such a miracle happened and then it split in two again in this case we wouldn't accept that it had came together isn't that right so we weren't going to accept that the moon we're seeing right now with our eyes could be in this form it's only because things seem ordinary to us now so yes there's no difference between the moon being one piece and the moon being split in two because there's a willful creator who's personally holding it together

right now that's what we're claiming okay i get it it is easy for god to do something extraordinary because he controls everything with his own will but how do we know he did it it may be possible but do you have any evidence that it happened in order to abolish this dawah cause the tawa of the quran the polytheist community of the time even offered to give all their possessions and their wealth to the prophet muhammad peace be upon him they even face up to war they could risk their lives and their wealth they're wishing to find even the slightest deficit of islam that is to find any indication that this dawah is invalid but they can't succeed now in the quran when shakkal khamar is a verse

that is a verse saying the moon is split in two the polytheist community of that time knows this verse too now if this event hadn't happened surely that polytheist community would have said see there is such a deficit in the quran see muhammad peace be upon him lied no never such false news is mentioned in the quran they would have happily announced but even the notorious community of that time couldn't deny that it had occurred it's magic he cast a spell on us they said pay attention no one's saying the moon hasn't split there are those who say he has cast a spell on us therefore this is an event that can't be denied by neither friends nor enemies has certainly occurred okay why do prophets

have to perform miracles if someone came to you right now and said i'm a police officer you would say show me a proof show me an evidence right and if this person said i'm going to show you such an evidence the chief of police will take care of you personally it would be a major piece of evidence when you look at it just like that the messenger who comes that is the prophet says i am commissioned by the creator of everything that you can see therefore when you say to him and what is your proof of this if he said this creator will do something he never normally does at my request surely this would be clear evidence of his prophecy and this is exactly what the splitting of the moon is whereas

normally god almighty never splits the moon into two pieces and brings it back together in order to prove the case of our prophets more precisely to confirm him such an event takes place and it automatically says ok look the creator of the universe that is the creator of existence changed his habit for his messenger this means that he is a prophet this is actually a very clear proof for us there are also people who accept the quran but deny what you say the ones who deny verses of the quran yes the moon didn't actually split there was something else written there they say is that what you're asking yes what would you like to say to them so this is a case from what i understand this stems

from not reading the seed explanation of the quran not listening to the opinions of scholars and partly because of not knowing arabic for example i read an article that explained the splitting of the moon it seems so absurd to me because in the verse it says that is anyone who speaks arabic knows that this means splitting therefore the issue of the moon is split is clearly there other than that seeks refuge with god yanarokuni fire be cool and safe for abraham says god almighty but that is coldness salaam be safe he says to the fire so the fire becomes safe now these verses are so clear and islamic scholars agree on this issue i think that saying the opposite is of course not understanding

the quran and is due to lack of information a lack of knowledge that is all we will be asking now we will meet again with more difficult questions the answers i gave aren't my own answers there are answers i learned from the facts of the quran so you can always ask i rely on the quran not myself hello brothers and sisters and thank you for watching the video if you want to take a look at more of our videos like this you can check the playlists we created specifically for you on the right or you can check out our latest videos on the left don't forget to like this video and subscribe to our channel so that we can reach and benefit more people see you
