Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: We read in some books by the Westerners who went to the moon that they saw the marks of the moon’s splitting. The question is: Can we take comfort in the statement of those among them who said this, in order to prefer the opinion of the exegetes who held that the splitting was real?
Answer:
Even though they claim to see the mark of the moon’s splitting, I do not know; I doubt whether they even reached it, let alone that they saw the marks of the moon’s splitting. These are matters we do not investigate or enter into. Yes.
