There are many miracles of Sayyidina Rasulallah . Indeed, the radiance of his blessed face was a miracle in itself!

Nevertheless, this short summary of miracles has been compiled in an effort to demonstrate a few of the miracles of our Beloved Prophet, in order to help others further understand the elevated status & power of Sayyidina Rasulallah .

1. Holy Qur’an

The greatest miracle of Sayyidina Rasulallah is the Holy Qur’an which was revealed to him by Almighty Allah, often brought to him by the Angel Jibra’il.

Despite many attempts by the evil-doers, from the time of its revelation to this day, none have been able to compose even a single verse equal to that of the Holy Qur’an.

“Say: “If the whole of mankind and Jinns were to gather together to produce the like of this Qur’an, they could not produce the like thereof, even if they backed up each other with help and support.”

[Holy Qur’an 17:88]

2. Splitting of the Moon

“The Hour has come near, and the moon has split [in two].”

[Holy Qur’an 54:1]

When Sayyidina Rasulallah was 52 years old, the disbelieving leaders of the Quraish tribe challenged him by saying, “If you are indeed a Prophet, split the moon into two parts.”

Sayyidina Rasulallah dearly wanted the people to convert to Islam and attain guidance, especially his close friends & relatives. Thus he prayed to Almighy Allah to make it possible, and the moon split into halves. Each part of the moon was visible above different mountains.

Despite witnessing this, the disbelievers said, “He has performed magic,” and due to their stubborn ways, denied this miracle. They did not accept Islam regardless of the clear proof which was provided to them.

Narrated Hazrat Anas b. Malik: “That the Makkan people requested Allah’s Apostle to show them a miracle, and so he showed them the splitting of the moon.”

 

[Sahih Bukhari: Book #56, Hadith #831]

3. Water from the Blessed Fingers

During the battle of Hudaibiya, the Muslims came upon a water shortage. The only water available was the amount that Sayyidina Rasulallah had, which he then dipped his blessed hands into and it began to flow from his blessed fingers in abundance.

This miracle has happened on a number of occasions, on which the Holy Prophet would cause water to flow from his blessed hands so there was enough available for each Companion in need of it. Sometimes eighty, sometimes three hundred, sometimes fifteen hundred, and in the war of Tabuk, seventy thousand people and their animals drank this water and used it.

Narrated Hazrat Salim: Hazrat Jabir said “On the day of Al-Hudaibiya, the people felt thirsty and Allah’s Apostle had a utensil containing water. He performed ablution from it and then the people came towards him. Allah’s Apostle said, ‘What is wrong with you?’ The people said, ‘O Allah’s Apostle! We haven’t got any water to perform ablution with or to drink, except what you have in your utensil.’ So the Prophet put his hand in the utensil and the water started spouting out between his fingers like springs. So we drank and performed ablution.”

I said to Jabir, “What was your number on that day?” He replied, “Even if we had been one hundred thousand, that water would have been sufficient for us. Anyhow, we were 1500.’

[Sahih Bukhari: Book #59, Hadith #473]

4. The Crying Tree-Trunk

Sayyidina Rasulallah used to deliver the Friday sermon whilst leaning against a tree trunk. Oneday, one of the Ansar offered to make a pulpit to replace the tree trunk, to which the Holy Prophet replied, “if you wish.”

When it was made, the tree trunk cried out of sadness that the Holy Prophet would no longer stand by it and preach religious knowledge near it.

 

Narrated Hazrat Jabir bin ‘Abdullah: “The Prophet used to stand by the stem of a date-palm tree (while delivering a sermon). When the pulpit was placed for him, we heard that stem crying like a pregnant she-camel till the Prophet got down from the pulpit and placed his hand over it.”

[Sahih Bukhari: Book #13, Hadith #41]

5. Food Recites Zikr in His Blessed Hands

It was witnessed many times how the gravel or the food in his hand, sounding like bees, would recite the names of Allah.

From a narration by Hazrat Abdullah: “..I saw the water flowing from among the fingers of Allah’s Apostle, and no doubt, we heard the meal glorifying Allah, when it was being eaten (by him).”

[Sahih Bukhari: Vol. 4, Hadith no. 779]

6. Increase of Water in the Well at Hudaibiya

When the  water in the well at Hudaibiya had dried out, the Holy Prophet rinsed his mouth into it causing the water levels to rise up once again.

Narrated Hazrat Al-Bara: “We were one-thousand-and-four-hundred persons on the day of Al-Hudaibiya, and (at) Al-Hudaibiya (there) was a well. We drew out its water not leaving even a single drop. The Prophet sat at the edge of the well and asked for some water with which he rinsed his mouth, and then he threw it out into the well. We stayed for a short while and then drew water from the well and quenched our thirst, and even our riding animals drank water to their satisfaction.

[Sahih Bukhari Book #56, Hadith #777]

7. Increase in Dates

The Holy Prophet went to Hazrat Jabir bin Abdullah’s garden of dates upon his request, and invoked Allah so that they’d increase with His blessings and he could easily pay off his father’s debt.

Narrated Hazrat Jabir: “My father had died in debt. So I came to the Prophet and said, “My father (died) leaving unpaid debts, and I have nothing except the yield of his date palms; and their yield for many years will not cover his debts. So please come with me, so that the creditors may not misbehave with me.” The Prophet went round one of the heaps of dates and invoked (Allah), and then did the same with another heap and sat on it and said, “Measure (for them).” He paid them their rights and what remained was as much as had been paid to them.”

[Sahih Bukhari: Volume 4, Book 56, Number 780]

8. A Wolf Speaks of the Messenger of Allah

It has been written that a wolf also spoke to one of the companions of the Holy Prophet, near Madinah Sharif, as narrated in Fatah-al-Bari:

“Narrated Unais bin ‘Amr: Ahban bin Aus said, “I was amongst my sheep. Suddenly a wolf caught a sheep and I shouted at it. The wolf sat on its tail and addressed me, saying, ‘Who will look after it (i.e. the sheep) when you will be busy and not able to look after it? Do you forbid me the provision which Allah has provided me?’ ” Ahban added, “I clapped my hands and said, ‘By Allah, I have never seen anything more curious and wonderful than this (that a wolf can speak like a human being)!’ On that, the wolf said, ‘There is something (more curious) and wonderful than this; that is, Allah’s Apostle in those palm trees, inviting people to Allah (i.e. Islam).’ “Unais bin ‘Amr further said, “Then Ahban went to Allah’s Apostle and informed him what happened and embraced Islam.””

 

[Sahih Bukhari: Volume 3, Book 39, Number 517]

9. The Me’raj – Ascension to Heavens

“Exalted is He who took His Servant [the Holy Prophet] by night from al-Masjid al-Haram to al-Masjid al- Aqsa, whose surroundings We have blessed, to show him of Our Signs. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Seeing.”

[Holy Qur’an 17:1]

This is a journey exclusive to the Holy Prophet on which he was shown a great many signs, including meeting many Prophets of Allah and seeing the inhabitants of Heaven and Hell.

10. The Blind Man’s Sight

Hazrat Usman bin Hanif  says that a blind man once went to the place of the Holy Prophet and said, “O Messenger of Allah! Pray for me that I may regain my sight.”

The Holy Prophet replied, “Go and perform ablution and read two Rakaats of Nafl Namaaz and read this Du’a, ‘O Allah! Verily I ask of you and towards You, I use the mediation of Muhammad Mustafa. O Muhammad, verily I turn through your Waseela (medium) to your Creator for my needs, so that my needs may be fulfilled. O Allah, accept the intercession of Muhammad for me.”

[Ibn Maja; Shifa Sharif]

11. Expulsion of the Body of a Liar

A Christian who returned to disbelief after he had embraced Islam was buried by his people. However, upon burial, the soil would constantly reject his body due to the disrespect he had shown to the Messenger of Allah .

Narrated Hazrat Anas: “There was a Christian who embraced Islam and read Surat-al-Baqara and Al-Imran, and he used to write (the revelations) for the Prophet. Later on he returned to Christianity again and he used to say: “Muhammad knows nothing but what I have written for him.” Then Allah caused him to die, and the people buried him, but in the morning they saw that the earth had thrown his body out. They said, “This is the act of Muhammad and his companions. They dug the grave of our companion and took his body out of it because he had run away from them.” They again dug the grave deeply for him, but in the morning they again saw that the earth had thrown his body out. They said, “This is an act of Muhammad and his companions. They dug the grave of our companion and threw his body outside it, for he had run away from them.” They dug the grave for him as deep as they could, but in the morning they again saw that the earth had thrown his body out. So they believed that what had befallen him was not done by human beings and had to leave him thrown (on the ground).”

[Sahih Bukhari: Volume 4, Book 56, Number 814]
