Signs (of the Resurrection) Within Souls Revealed
"The difference between the miracles of Allah and other supernatural [events] artifices is in the challenge these miracles presented to the strengths of the people to whom a particular messenger has sent. A true miracle defies all natural laws established by Allah, which could not be violated or suspended, except by His Will. The exact object of each Messenger’s miracle was a challenge to particular traits of each of the groups of people to whom they were sent. A miracle would be futile if it did not achieve its desired effect on its witnesses. For it to have full impact, it should relate to an area of knowledge in which its intended audience are well versed. For example, if the people for whom a Messenger has been sent excel in medicine, sorcery or philology, the miracle should also concern these fields. Only in this way can a miracle fulfil its purpose. This rule has been observed in all the divine miracles performed by the Messengers and Prophets of Allah. Divine miracles are not limited to challenges they present to the people before whom they occur, but are also designed to provide them with the capacity to perceive them as signs of His power over all things in the Universe." - Shaykh Muhammed M. Al-SharawiSurah 41:53 Fussilat (Expounded)
Soon We will show them Our Signs in the Regions and in their own souls,
Until it becomes manifest to them that this is the Truth.
surah 41:53 Fussilat (Expounded)
(Abdullah Yusuf Ali, The Holy Qur'an, 1989.)
On the earth are Signs for those of assured Faith, as also in your own Selves: Will ye not then see?
And in heaven is your Sustenance, as that which ye are promised. (5003)
Then, by the Lord of heaven and earth, this is the very Truth. (5004)
surah 51:20-22 Al Dhariyat (The Winds That Scatter)
(Abdullah Yusuf Ali, The Holy Qur'an, 1989.)
"5003. "Sustenance," here as elsewhere, includes physical sustenance. Similarly heaven or sky has both the physical and spiritual meaning. The physical sustenance grows from rain from the sky; the spiritual sustenance comes from divine aid, grace, and mercy, and includes the Good News and the Warning which come from Revelation about the Hereafter.
5004. Attention having been called to the Signs or Evidences of Allah's working on the earth, within ourselves, and in the heavens, in verses 20-22, an appeal is made to our own inner conscience, in the name of the Lord of heaven and earth, to acknowledge and act up to the truth of Revelation, and turn to the spiritual Realities. For they are as real as our own conscious and self-intelligent existence, on which is based all our knowledge."
Abdullah Yusuf Ali, The Holy Qur'an
(Abdullah Yusuf Ali, The Holy Qur'an, 1989, p. 1359.)
The 1,400 years prophecy of the Qur'an to reveal the Allah's Signs of the Resurrection on Earth and within humans has now been fulfilled. These Sure Signs are absolutely necessary to be shown as verifiable evidence that the Golden Age of Al-Qiyamah has begun.
But the ulema have also mutilated these sacred verses with their interpretations. We have no idea what Islamic theologians understand by:
"attention having been called to the Signs or Evidences of Allah's working on the earth, within ourselves;"
"an appeal is made to our own inner conscience, in the name of the Lord of heaven and earth;"
"act up to the truth of Revelation;"
"turn to spiritual Realities."
Mainstream Islam has no idea of esoteric Reality and 1400 years of religious indoctrination has severely retarded the spiritual growth of hundreds of millions. This is self-evident in their interpretation and evidence provided to support the above surahs. Only a cursory look at what they regard as miracles reveals the deplorable intellectual bankruptcy.
Identifying Allah's Miracle
Five conditions have to be met by an event to qualify as a miracle from Allah.
1. That no one except Allah, the Lord and Master of the worlds, is able to do it by Himself or through any of His messengers;
2. That the incident breaks the usual norms and differs from the law of nature;
3. That it serves as a proof for the trust and claim of the messenger;
4. That it happened in accordance with the messenger’s claim;
5. The the event happens through the messenger and no one else.
The stand of Islam on miracles is that it is exclusive for the messengers and apostles of Allah. He honoured them with the ability to perform certain feats by His leave. Apart from messengers and apostles of Allah, certain human beings, at one time or the other, were also honoured to perform wonders similar to the miracles of the messengers of Allah. This is distinguished from magic, whose source is Satan and which is wrought by evil men and women.
Dr. Kamil Kayejo Oloso
Taking Dr. Kamil Kayejo Oloso definition of what constitutes a miracle from Allah only the foolish and ignorant think these are the signs and miracles of Allah:
Allah's Name Clearly Visible Over Africa
A tree in the posture of Islamic prayer
Allah's name appears on the Oceans
Ice forms the Name of Allah on a Mountain
Amazing Marks on Your Hands
Allah's Name Written by the Clouds
The Sacred Masjids of Islam Shining Like Stars
Allah's Name Appears on Clouds in Indonesia
A Plant Fashions itself to Display the Name of Allah
Allah's name formed by beautiful clouds on Perth, Australia
Allah's name visible on yahoo map north of Madinah
Clouds form the name of Allah in Kashmir
Vines form the name of Allah on a Acacia Tree
Allah's name appears on a horse in India
Allah's name found on the Moon
Allah's name formed by a tree in England
Allah's Name Appears on an Aglaonema Plant
Allah's Name Appears on Clouds in Lembu Mountain, Indonesia
Allah's Name Appears on a Lule Flower
A Rock in Sajdah Position
But what have all the above petty mutations of nature that need a generous stretching of the imagination have to do with Allah's Signs which are Resurrection-specific? Are any of them informative of Al Qadr(The Night of Destiny)? Does any of them call upon the Believers to commence and witness the Resurrection and His self-reproaching Spirit (Ruh) within? The Blast of Qiyamah, the central theme of Islam and the Qur'an, will blow the dogmas of their most brilliant religious scholars, clerics, imams, shaikhs, ulema, mullahs and ayatollahs to smithereens, and forever expose their utter spiritual bankruptcy when they examine the following Sure Signs of Allah on Earth and in their souls:
Earth: Winds of Qiyamah Are Blowing
Earth: Angels Sent Forth Have Arrived
Earth: Solar Eclipse Of Qiyamah
Earth: And We Sent Iron
Earth: Blast On Earth
Earth: Blast In Universe
Earth: The Night Visitant
Earth: Children Of Israel Gathered
soul: Allah's Light Within
soul: Allah's Universe Within
soul: Baptism of Allah (SWT)
soul: Caller From A Place Quite Near
soul: Hidden Imam Mahdi Has Emerged
soul: Your Hands Will Speak (Guide) During Qiyamah
soul: Meeting Allah's Messengers
soul: Signs within Selves shown
soul: Id Al-Adha Of 1994
soul: Id Al-Adha Of 1995
soul: Meraj Of Prophet Muhammad
soul: Belief In His Angels
soul: His Spirit And His Angels
Miracles of the Qur'an
Shaykh Muhammed Metwalli Al-Sharawi
What is a Miracle
The Quran is Allah’s speech revealed to His chosen Prophet Muhammad as a challenge to man and jinn.1 This challenge was not extended to the angels, as Allah did not grant them free will. They are committed to obey His commands willingly and submissively. The Quran is, therefore, a challenge to those who have freedom of choice, as well as the mental capacity to distinguish between right and wrong.
A miracle is a divine act which defies and transcends universal norms and laws, which Allah grants to his messengers and apostles in order to convince people of the truth of their message. With this heavenly support mundane laws and natural phenomena are caused to yield in such an overwhelming way that all attempts at rational explanation are defeated.
Knowing that His messengers would inevitably be challenged to perform such miracles, Allah bestowed upon them this power. Thus was Abraham able to withstand burning by the fire; Jesus restored sight to the blind and raised the dead; and Moses parted the Red Sea. The miracle of Muhammad (s) was the Quran itself.
The difference between the miracles of Allah and other supernatural [events] artifices is in the challenge these miracles presented to the strengths of the people to whom a particular messenger has sent.
A true miracle defies all natural laws established by Allah, which could not be violated or suspended, except by His Will. The exact object of each Messenger’s miracle was a challenge to particular traits of each of the groups of people to whom they were sent.
A miracle would be futile if it did not achieve its desired effect on its witnesses. For it to have full impact, it should relate to an area of knowledge in which its intended audience are well versed. For example, if the people for whom a Messenger has been sent excel in medicine, sorcery or philology, the miracle should also concern these fields.
Only in this way can a miracle fulfil its purpose. This rule has been observed in all the divine miracles performed by the Messengers and Prophets of Allah.
Divine miracles are not limited to challenges they present to the people before whom they occur, but are also designed to provide them with the capacity to perceive them as signs of His power over all things in the Universe.
