Asalaamu Alaykum Brothers & Sisters,

Narrated Anas bin Malik: "The people of Mecca asked Allah's Apostle to show them a miracle. So he showed them the moon split in two halves between which they saw the Hiram' mountain.
(Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Merits of the Helpers in Madinah (Ansaar), Volume 5, Book 58, Number 208)"

Five years before the immigration of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) from Mecca to Medina, a group of people from the tribe of Quraish came challenging him saying: Oh Muhammad if you were really a Prophet and a Messenger bring to us a miracle to establish this fact. So he asked them what do you want? They said in an effort to complicate matters for him: split the moon for us.

The Messenger of ALLAH (PBUH) stood supplicating to Allah to support him and grant him victory in this hard situation. Allah may He be Exalted inspired him to sign towards the moon with his finger. immediately, the moon cleft into two parts standing far from each other for several hours then cling back together. The pagans started claiming: Oh Muhammad (PBUH) practiced witchcraft on us.




A British man stated:

At the time when I was searching in religions (before I embraced Islam), a Muslim student gave me as a present, the translation of the meaning of Quran. I thanked him and took it home. The first Surat (verse) I came across when I opened the book was Chapter of the Moon I read "has drawn near, and the moon has been cleft asunder". I said to myself, is this statement logical? Is it possible for the moon to split and then reattach. What kind of power may cause this?

The man explained that this verse made him reluctant to continue reading. He said that he became busy with his life, yet ALLAH of course Knew how sincere he was about finding out the truth.

So, one day, he said ALLAH made me sit to watch TV. It was a talk show between a British commentator and three American astronautics specialists. The show host was blaming the scientists for pending thriftily over space trips at a time when earth is suffering hunger,poverty, diseases and backwardness. He was telling them, it would have been more feasible to allocate this kind of money for reconstruction of earth.

To this argument, the three men answered defending their position that such technology is widely applied in many wakes of life such as medicine, industry and agriculture.

During their dialogue, they mentioned the trip in which a man landed on the moon surface as it consumes the the largest cost which comes to more than US $100.000.000.000. The British TV anchor screamed saying what kind of thrift is this? A hundred thousand million dollars just to plant the American flag on the moon surface? They answered no; the objective was not to plant the American flag but rather to study the interior composition of the moon.

We actually came to a finding that would cost us double folds of this amount for people to believe and yet they will never believe. The show host inquired
what is this fact? They replied: One day this moon was split and then reattached. The show host again probed: how did you realize that? The scientists responded about finding a belt of transformed rocks cutting the
moon from its surface to core and then to the surface gain. The stated saying: we consulted with earth scientists and geologists who explained that such phenomenon would never occur unless this moon one day split and then reattached.

The British Muslim man said: I jumped out of my chair saying ALLAH (SWT) forced the Americans to spend more than a hundred billion dollars to prove to Muslims a a miracle that took place 1400 years ago for Mohamed (PBUH)? This religion must be the truth. He added: I went back to the Quran and recited Surat Al Qamar, which was my gate for accepting Islam.

Subhanallah

ok I tell u what? this is absolute not true that Muhammed(s) would have split the moon  why?
Quraan repeatedly says we have not provided any miracle to Muhammed(s) but just Quraan, Quraan is the biggest miracle given to Muhammed(s) and not the moon spliting.
Common sense is biggest religion

Released

Peace,

What is your reasoning for posting these lies?
God does not change the condition of a people until they change what is within themselves (13:11)

It was simply a lunar eclipse which can easily be observed these days. The moon split into half due to the shadow of the earth on the moon, one half looked bright and other half dark to look like moon split into half.  The verse simply tells us about the lunar eclipse happened at the time of prophet and their disbeliever said in the next verse that "they would turn aside and say, ?An ever-recurring delusion!?. Means they have heard about this before but never witnessed and anything which can't be explained at that time can be called as Magic.
