Recent scientific research has confirmed themiracle of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him
and his holy progeny) regarding “The Splitting of
the Moon”.
It has been proven through a picture captured by
NASA which was published throughout the world.
The photo from NASA using Apollo 10 and Apollo
11 shows a clear indication (a line) that the Moon
was split in past.
The report, spread on scientific foundations in
different global parts, said that the picture which
illustrates splitting of moon confirms that the
moon was split into two halves during its
geological age. The report said the scientists were
unable to give any scientific explanation for
happening of ‘moon splitting’ as any such splitting
was never happened to any heavenly body prior to
what happened to the moon. The geologists assert
that it is impossible that such a line appears save
the moon was split into two halves and then it
was rejoined.
This miracle of the Prophet (peace be upon him) is
mentioned in the beginning of Sura Al-Qamar (the
moon) about the split of the moon [54:1] ‘The
Hour has drawn near, and the moon has been cleft
asunder (the people of Makkah requested Prophet
Muhammad to show them a miracle, so he showed
them the splitting of the moon)’.
Narrated Ibn Masud: During the lifetime of Allah’s
Apostle the moon was split into two parts; one
part remained over the mountain, and the other
part went beyond the mountain. On that, Allah’s
Apostle said, “Witness this miracle.” (Bukhari; 60;
387)
As stated one of the greatest miracles of Prophet
Muhammad (Peace be upon him) was splitting the
moon. This amazing miracle, which couldn’t be
denied even by the unbelievers occurred in the
following way:
The miracle of the splitting of the moon occurred
before the migration to Medina upon the demands
of the polytheists with the permission of Allah and
it was shown by the Prophet Muhammad (Peace
be upon him) as narrated by many companions
like Anas b. Malik, Imam Ali, Huzayfa b. Yaman,
Abdullah b. Mas’ud, Abdullah b. Abbas, Abdullah b.
Umar, Abdullah b. Amr b. As, Jubayr b. Mut’im
(May Allah be pleased with all of them).
Among Quraish polytheists, Walid b. Mughira, Abu
Jahl. As b. Wail, As b. Hisham, Aswad b. Abdi
Yaghus, Aswad b. Muttalib, Zama b. Aswad, Nadr
b. Harith and others said to the prophet
Muhammad (Peace be upon him):
“If you truly are a Prophet that has been appointed
by Allah, then split the moon in half. Let it be in
such a way that one half will appear over the
Mount Abu Qubais and the other half will be seen
over Mount Quayqian.”
The prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)
asked:
“If I do it, will you become Muslims?”
The polytheists answered: “Yes, we will.”
It was the 14th night, when it was full moon. The
Messenger of Allah stood supplicating to Allah.
Allah the Almighty inspired him to sign towards the
moon with his finger. When Almighty Allah let the
moon split in half, one half standing over Mount
Abu Qubais and the other half over Mount
Quayqian, the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon
him) shouted at Muslims:
“O Abu Salama b. Abdulasad! Arqam b. Abi’l
Arqam! Bear witness!
And to the polytheists, he said, “Bear witness! So
and so!
However, the polytheists said “This is one of the
spells of Abu Kabsha’s Son.” “The son of Abu
Kabsha cast a spell on you!” They said
“Muhammad cast a spell on us!”
Some of them also said:
“If Muhammad had cast a spell on us then, He
couldn’t have cast a spell on everyone! Let us ask
the wayfarers who came from the surrounding
areas if they saw what we saw.”
They asked the travelers, who replied:
“Yes! We also did see the moon in that state! We
saw the moon as split! They informed that the
moon was split. However, the polytheists, who
couldn’t deny the miracle occurred right in front of
their eyes, rejected to be Muslims and to believe by
saying: “This is a prevalent magic!”, they said “Abu
Talib’s orphan affected the sky with his spell!”
Since they couldn’t deny the miracle and since they
couldn’t embrace Islam, they had to name it as
“spell”.

1/447, Ibni Kathir, Tafseer: 4/262, Tirmidhi, 5/398)
