Do scientists believe that the moon was split in half?

[h4mza]

Just wondering what does NASA think about splitting of moon which occured during the life of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

Asalaamu Alaikum,

Some Scholars (Muslim one's) themselves don't believe that the Moon was split during the Prophet(pbuh)'s time and that it was a reference to the Moon splitting on Judgement Day.

There is a CRACK on the Moon, but I think Scientists believe it was from asteroids.

I am not learned in this field though, i'd suggest you do some research on it, or someone else with knowledge can enlighten us better.

 

[ShahnazZ]

There's a crack on it so I don't know why they wouldn't believe in it. But knowing them they probably just don't think it was a result of Divine Intervention (which it was).

 

[islamdonlyway]

walikumsalam, im sure there is a crack on the moon, you can see there a line going through with a powerfull microscope or close up images of the moon, but even if its true they will deny it to be the miricle of our prophet (pbuh).and i dont think they would advertise it either, these things are always kept hidden from the publics.

:salam2:,

if a scientist is a beliver, he will believe whether he can see the cracks or not.

if he is not a believer, no matter how many cracks he see, he will not believe.

Wa alaykum asalaam,

What scholars would those be? I've never heard of such claim. Care to bring some evidence brother

Asalaamu Alaikum,

I don't mean the Hadiths, I mean the Quranic reference. Where it talks about -

Verse 54:1-2 of the Qur'an reads: "The hour drew nigh and the moon did rend asunder. And if they see a miracle they turn aside and say: Transient magic."

I've read some Scholars believe this is refering to the Day of Judgement. Although I can't source you since this was a long time ago, I admit that I am unlearned in this subject.

It does refer to some translators here who mention this - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splitting_of_the_moon

This is also good to give more depth about the miracle - http://www.islamic-life.com/forums/...hies/moon-split-miracle-prophet-muhammad-1419

Allah(swt) Knows best.

Ah I see your point, but I believe the miracle of the moon splitting is still affirmed in Hadith..right?
