When Allah decreed the Creation He pledged Himself by writing in His book which is laid down with Him: My mercy prevails over my wrath.
Landing on Moon
Chapter number 54 (Al Qamar - القمر - The Moon), verse one says:
"The Hour has come closer, and the moon has split"
Man landend on moon and brought lunar surface samples back to earth in 1969. The vehicle Eagle left lunar surface on 21. July 1969 at 17:54:01 UTC. This coressponds to the 6th of Jamaadah al Awal (6th month) year 1389 Hijri (to migration pf the Prophet from Mecca to Madina) which means landing on Moon occured in the year that completes 1390 years to Hijra according to Islamic calendar. This is the only verse in the Quran that says anything about moon splitting. The verb Inshaqa (split) (إنشق) is used in other contexts in the Holy Quran to refer to splitting of earth as by water falling from the sky and making rivers. This verse is the 1390th verse from the end of the Quran, in other words, from this verse to the end of the Quran there are exactly 1389 verses. 1389 verses from this verse Quran ends, and 1389 years from Quran revelation, man would land on moon and bring, by his hands, lunar soil back to earth.
And to increase our confidence let us consider what God says right after this verse:
"ٱقْتَرَبَتِ ٱلسَّاعَةُ وَٱنشَقَّ ٱلْقَمَرُ ﴿١﴾ وَإِن يَرَوْا۟ ءَايَةًۭ يُعْرِضُوا۟ وَيَقُولُوا۟ سِحْرٌۭ مُّسْتَمِرٌّۭ ﴿٢﴾ وَكَذَّبُوا۟ وَٱتَّبَعُوٓا۟ أَهْوَآءَهُمْ ۚ وَكُلُّ أَمْرٍۢ مُّسْتَقِرٌّۭ ﴿٣﴾ وَلَقَدْ جَآءَهُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَنۢبَآءِ مَا فِيهِ مُزْدَجَرٌ ﴿٤﴾ حِكْمَةٌۢ بَـٰلِغَةٌۭ ۖ فَمَا تُغْنِ ٱلنُّذُرُ ﴿٥﴾"
" 2. But whenever they see a miracle they turn aside and say, This is well-devised magic. 3. And they have treated the prophets as impostors, and follow their own lusts; but everything is unalterably fixed. 4. A message of prohibition had come to them - 5. Consummate wisdom - but warners profit them not."

I am astonished! Laa hawla wa laa quwwata illa billah..
"but everything is
"but everything is unalterably fixed" does this say that he has fixed the date and time, for this event to happen? so it can match up with the qurans prediction? i get that feeling you know, I am not sure.
and what about the miracle Mohammad saw, on the moon splitting hadiths, is that a false hadiths? so the moon has been split two times?
I assume you are referring to
I assume you are referring to verse number 49 of this chapter. God says: "Verily, everything have we created by decree,".
God is saying that He had created everything carefully. This should not surprise us. Think about the constants in physics
no sir. i qouted from the
no sir.
i qouted from the verse above; And they have treated the prophets as impostors, and follow their own lusts; but everything is unalterably fixed. get the feeling of the veerse is that everthing is fixed, down to a sec. to match what the quran says about the future.
The thing is that their is a hadiths, when mohammed performed a great miracle. he splith the moon in two, to the disbelievers. as a proof. that hadiths is very popular. my father told it once to me. but the verse above, can have two meanings right?
