Hz. Miracles of Muhammad (SAV)
Hz. The greatest miracle of Muhammad is the Quran. Apart from that, many events related to the prophet have been mentioned in the Qur’an, but it has been a matter of debate whether these events have extraordinary characteristics. Hz. The miracles of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) are divided into three: the miracles of his senses, of his mind, and of his knowledge. These miracles are more numerous than the miracles of other prophets. In addition to the many miracles of our Prophet, there are also many miracles. Some of them are as follows;
The Miracle of the Qur’an
The Qur’an is the greatest and eternal miracle that appeals to all times. Hz. In the hadiths of our Prophet, “There is no prophet who has not been given a miracle that people of his time believed in. Miracles have been given to all of them. What was given to me as a miracle is the Qur’an, which Allah revealed to me.” The Quran is a book that is the word of Allah and is of such a high level that human beings will not be able to produce the like of it. Almighty Allah advised our Master the Prophet to recite the Qur’an against those who do not believe.
The Miracle of Splitting the Moon
The miracle of splitting the moon into two took place in Mecca in the 8th year of the Prophethood. The Qurayshis, who did not want to believe, asked the Prophet for a miracle. Our Prophet (pbuh) pointed his hand at the moon in the sky and with a sign, the moon was divided into two. Despite this, the Qurayshis, who did not want to believe, said, “Muhammad must have divided the moon into two by casting a spell on us, let’s ask the caravans and caravans coming from outside about the situation.” All the groups they asked said that they saw the moon split into two. But still, the polytheists; They continued to deny, saying, “Muhammad’s magic also affected the sky.”

So that we might show him some of Our signs. Indeed, Allah is Hearing and Seeing.” (Isra: 1)
Hz. Upon the invitation of Allahu ta’ala, the Prophet Muhammad (SAV) ascended to the heavens, or divine presence, from the Masjid-i Haram, to the Masjid-i-Aqsa, together with Gabriel. 5 daily prayers were made obligatory in Miraj. The prayer, which was 50 times in the beginning, was reduced to five times. Everyone who believes in our Master the Prophet was given the good news that they would enter Paradise, and the last two verses of Surah Baqara were revealed.
Hz. The Miracle of Draining Water from the Hands of the Prophet Muhammad (SAV)
This miracle has happened not just once, but many times. About this miracle, Jabir Bin Abdullah said: “People were thirsty on the day of Hudaybiyyah. Our Master the Prophet was making ablution from a leather water bowl. When people started running towards him, our Prophet said; He asked what’s going on with you. They said that we cannot make ablution and drink water because we do not have any water with us. Our Prophet immediately put his hand into the water bowl and the water started to flow like a spring. We both drank and made wudu.” (Ravi Salim)
The Miracle of the Blessing and Multiplication of Food
The miracles of the Prophet in this direction took place many times. Anas Ibn Malik narrated as follows; “Abu Talha asked Umm Sulaym if she had anything to eat. Umm Sulaym said yes, and showed her some bread made of barley. Abu Talha wrapped these breads in a bundle and gave it to me and sent it to the Messenger of Allah. The Messenger of Allah was in the mosque with a few people. He asked me if Abu Talha sent you for food. I said yes. He ordered the people next to him to get up and we walked towards our house. I reported the situation to Abu Talha. He also said to Umm Sulaym; The Messenger of Allah brought the people, but he said, ‘There is nothing we can feed them. Umm Sulaym; He replied that the Messenger of Allah knows best. The Messenger of Allah came with Abu Talha and said to Umm Sulaym, bring whatever you have with you. He brought the bread with a small bag of oil and we added the oil to the bread. Then the Messenger of Allah prayed. The eating community reached 70 or 80 people, they were all satiated and the food did not decrease at all.”
The Miracle of the Rain
Enes (ra) narrated as follows; “During the time of the Prophet, there was a lack of rain and famine in Medina. While the Messenger of Allah was in the sermon on a Friday, a man came to him and said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, our horses and sheep were destroyed. Would you pray to God to give us rain? The Messenger of Allah opened his hands and prayed. While the sky was clear, suddenly a wind blew, the clouds gathered and it started to rain immediately. It rained so much that we hardly even went to our homes.
