Not Only the Quran, There Are Many Miracles of Prophet Muhammad

Dream - Every messenger is equipped by Allah SWT with different miracles. The same goes for the last prophet and messenger, Prophet Muhammad, who was also endowed with miracles by Allah SWT.

When talking about miracles, perhaps for ordinary people it will be considered something impossible. Because miracles are extraordinary events or occurrences. Where such things are given by Allah SWT to His prophets and messengers as evidence of the truth of their claim as prophets and messengers.

Quoted from islam.nu.or.id, Prophet Muhammad was endowed with various kinds of miracles that even surpassed the miracles of the previous messengers. As explained in a hadith that tells about the people of Mecca asking for proof of prophethood in the form of miracles.

"From Anas, he said: 'The people of Mecca asked the Prophet to show a proof of his prophethood, so Prophet Muhammad showed the splitting of the moon.'" (HR. Bukhari)

In addition, there are still many other special miracles possessed by Prophet Muhammad. What are they? Here is the explanation as summarized by Dream from various sources.

Miracles of Prophet Muhammad

All this time, Muslims know that the greatest miracle of Prophet Muhammad is the revelation of the Quran. But it turns out that there are many other miracles that Prophet Muhammad possessed. Some scholars say that he was given 3,000 miracles. As for the Quran itself, it contains about 60,000 or 70,000 miracles.

Now, here are some miracles of Prophet Muhammad that Dream friends need to know:

Moon Splitting

The first miracle of Prophet Muhammad is being able to split the moon. One day, Prophet Muhammad was asked by the disbelievers to prove his prophethood. Prophet Muhammad showed it by pointing to the moon with his finger, and the moon split into two. However, the disbelievers considered it to be magic.

In addition, Ibn Mas'ud narrated that the moon split into two during the time of Prophet Muhammad, and everyone saw it clearly. Prophet Muhammad then exclaimed:

"Be my witnesses (to enter Islam)." (HR. Bukhari and Baihaqi)

Increasing Food

The next miracle is increasing food. This is known through an explanation in a hadith narrated by Imam Bukhari and Imam Muslim from Jabir bin Abdullah that Prophet Muhammad increased the food at Jabir bin Abdullah's house after leaving Khandaq.

At that time, Jabir only made a little food and it was only intended for Prophet Muhammad. However, he ordered everyone to come with a small amount of food. But it turned out that everyone got an equal share of the food. Even, there were other groups that came as well.

Increasing Dishes

Related to food, Prophet Muhammad had the miracle of increasing dishes. This is explained in a hadith narrated by Imam Muslim. Where Prophet Muhammad received a shipment of dishes from Anas bin Malik's mother, Ummu Sulai.

At that time, the dishes brought were very few. However, Prophet Muhammad asked all the companions to come beside him and enjoy the available dishes. It turned out that the food was enough for everyone.

Increasing Water

Another miracle of Prophet Muhammad is being able to increase water. This happened when Prophet Muhammad and his companions were on a journey, and the drinking water they brought had run out. Meanwhile, the water source was very far from their location.

Then, they met a woman who had a little water. Prophet Muhammad wiped the water bag carried by the woman. After that, the companions who had been thirsty for a long time were able to drink from the bag. It is known that there were 40 of them. The feeling of thirst disappeared, they filled their water bags to the full. This story is mentioned in a hadith narrated by Bukhari.
