Does Muhammad (PBBUH) Have Miracles?

Question Title

The concept of miracles (known as Mu`jizat in Arabic) is central to Islamic theology. Muslims believe that Allah (Exalted be He) possesses the power to intervene in the natural order of things and perform acts that defy human logic and understanding. As the last Prophet of Islam, Muhammad (may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) is said to have been granted the ability to perform miracles as a sign of his prophethood.

One of the most famous miracles attributed to Prophet Muhammad is the splitting of the moon. This event is referred to in Surah Al-Qamar (54:1), which states: “The hour has come near, and the moon has split [in two]. And if they see a miracle, they turn away and say, ‘Passing magic.’”

Another commonly cited miracle is the Isra' (Night Journey) and Mi`raj (Ascension to Heaven), during which Prophet Muhammad was taken from Makkah to Jerusalem and then was raised to the heavens and back to earth in one night. This event is detailed in Surah Al-Isra (17:1), which states: “Exalted is He who took His Servant by night from Al-Masjid Al-Haram to Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa, whose surroundings We have blessed, to show him of Our signs. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Seeing.”

Other miracles attributed to Prophet Muhammad include his ability to predict future events, his healing of the sick, and his ability to recite the entire Quran from heart without any prior learning or training, which is also considered miraculous.

Overall, these miracles serve as powerful manifestations of Allah’s Guidance through His chosen prophet and reinforce the truthfulness of Islam as a faith based on divine revelation rather than human interpretation.
