The Last Hour has drawn near, and the moon has split. But whenever they see a sign, they turn away and say, ‘This is evident magic.’ (54:1-2)

The miracle of the splitting of the moon was demonstrated before a certain gathering who persisted in denial of Muhammad’s Prophethood. As was related by ‘Adbullah ibn Mas‘ud, while they were in Mina’ one night, the Prophet split the moon into two by a gesture of his index finger. The halves of the moon appeared one behind the mountain and the other in front of it. Then, the Prophet turned to us and said: ‘Be witnesses!’ [1]

The splitting of the moon happened momentarily at a time of night

The Qur’an refers to this miracle in the following verses:

The Last Hour has drawn near, and the moon has split. But whenever they see a sign, they turn away and say, ‘This is evident magic’. (al-Qamar, 54.1-2)

Some say 'If the splitting of the moon had taken place, it would have been known to the whole world and related in all subsequent books of human history’.

Answer: The splitting of the moon was demonstrated before a certain gathering who contradicted the Prophet Muhammad in his cause as an evidence of his Prophethood. It happened momentarily at a time of night. Also, there were obstacles which prevented the others from seeing it, such as mist, clouds and time-differences between different parts of the world. Besides, at that time science and civilization were not yet well advanced and not widespread, and, therefore, the observation of the sky was limited. There was nothing to necessitate that it should have been seen all over the world. It is because of these reasons that the splitting of the moon was not witnessed in the whole world and related in the history books of other nations (except that some studies suggest it was seen in India and was recorded). We deem it useful to mention the following five points concerning the event.

ALERT ALERT HOLY PROPHET DIDNT SPLITED THE MOON WITH HIS FINGER (AS MOST PEOPLE KNOW)..THIS IS SHIRK..WRONG..I READ THIS SOMEWHERE..HOLYPROPHET RATHER PRAYED TO ALLAH TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN..

okay this is fine but since none of today's scholars were present at that time we can only assume things and even if he did split his index fingers it would have been bcs of command of Allah and even if he didnt then it would have been bcs of command of Allah we all know he didnt split the moon Allah did
