Some of Muhammad’s (SAW) Miracles

One of his miracles was the splitting of the moon into two. This happened when the pagans of Makkah wanted Muhammad to show them the signs of his prophetic powers. Here Allah made the moon split in two; each piece lay on top of a separate mountain. This is related in Chapter 54 verse 1:
The Hour (of Judgment) is nigh, and the moon is cleft asunder.

Among some of his miracles was that he dripped water between his fingers. One of the incidences narrated about this was that one day people had no water to perform ablution for prayers. Here Muhammad (SAW) put his hand in a bucket and water dripped out, and there was enough water for everyone.
One of his other miracles was that if he prayed on the food, it became ample and could feed many people. For example, one day he fed almost seventy to eighty people on a small piece of bread, which was cut into small pieces and then prayed on it, thus all the people ate to their satisfaction.
His mosque in Madina was constructed using trunks of palm trees that formed the columns, and the roof was out of palm tree fronds. He used to stand at one of these columns whenever he preached, and when a rostrum was built for him he stopped standing at that column. People in the mosque started hearing wailing sound coming from the column, and so Muhammad (SAW) instructed the column to be buried under the rostrum.

He also used to cure the sick and those hurt in the war by rubbing and praying on their wounds. His invocations were never returned unheeded by Allah; whatever he prayed and asked for from his Lord it was always granted. His dreams always came true.

How Muslims Should Demand Their Rights

By His Eminence Shaikh Ahmed al Khalili, Grand Mufti of the Sultanate — A Muslim weights his deeds with the balance of piety to measures their harms and benefits and decides whether or not to embark upon done within lawful and reasonable limits. The common interest is — without a doubt — given preference over the individual interest, hence the claim of an individual’s rights is considered unlawful in Islam when it conflicts with the collective interest or undermines it, in which case the end never justifies the means. A Muslim has to contemplate both, the end and the means,

Impact Of Unfounded Rumours On Society

By His Eminence Shaikh Ahmed al Khalili, Grand Mufti of the Sultanate — Muslims are ordered not to speak of anything before verifying the correctness of what they intend to say and making sure that they aren’t telling falsehood; otherwise dire consequences will result from the spread of unfounded rumours. Allah the Exalted has laid a strong emphasis on this matter when He said: “There is not a word man utters but an observer is ready ‘to make note of it”. The Prophet, peace be upon him, said: “A man might speak a word without thinking about its implications, but
