Mentioning the miracle of the splitting of the moon.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : And Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), was asked by the polytheists to show them a sign indicating his truthfulness. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) pointed to the moon, and it split into two pieces while they were watching it. This moon in the sky split into two: one piece on Mount al-Safa and one piece on Mount al-Marwah. They saw it split. In this, Allah (Mighty and Majestic) said: [Al-Qamar 54:1-2]. They said: "This Muhammad has bewitched us. The moon did not split, but Muhammad has bewitched us and corrupted our sight and our eyes." Because the disbeliever, may Allah protect us from that, upon whom the word of Allah has become true, does not believe: [Yunus 10:96-97]. They do not accept it. We ask Allah for well-being for us and for you, and that He guide our hearts. The hearts are between two fingers of the fingers of the Most Merciful; He turns them however He wills and directs them however He wills. So the one upon whom the word of punishment has become true does not believe ever, no matter what sign you bring to him. For this reason, they asked the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) for a sign, and He showed them this wondrous sign that no one is able to match, and they said: "This is continuous magic" [Al-Qamar 54:3].
