"Prophet Mohammed Lovers"

why returned into one piece or why it was split ?

Well, both really

i will tell u the real story :
first some unbelievers ( some ppl say that they included jewish ) came to our prophet to ask him for a miracle to prove that he is a prophet of god -as every messenger came with miracle - they asked him to split the moon .
so our prophet asked allah ( our , ur god ) to split moon into halves so infront of their eyes it was split into halves and in front of them it was returned again ofcourse every one said it is magic and there is no such thing but lately some astraunats discovered some rocks with some shape on moon surface with researches they addmited that these rocks ruselted from splitting moon into halves and returning back again and there r many other things i may tell u about

I may be wrong here but I thought, due to some ancient injury billions of years ago, the moon was formed as a split off following a collosion with two bodies that formed Earth.

Well.... I'm not convinced. Some rocks with some shape you say? Sounds a bit suspect.

If I were asked to perform a miracle, I'd probably opt for something of practical value. Turning water into wine is pretty good for livening things up at a dull party, also the loaves and the fishes one is really useful for when people forget their packed lunches, but I can't see what use splitting the moon and putting it back together is.

Maybe it delayed high tide, or something else, I dunno. Either way I doubt whether anyone noticed.

Terraforming the moon, now that would have been a good one.

Anyway, I've been digging around with regards to that picture of that 250km "scratch" you pointed out, and as far as I can tell, although it is a "relatively young" feature on the moon, one website has pointed out that there is cratering within the walls of the rille, so that probably dates it at a few million years, not like, 600 or whatever.

I can't find anything on the NASA site, perhaps I should take it on faith?

these researches refer that the old of the splitting goes back to 1300-1500 year

OK let me get this straight, you believe the moon split in half 1400 years ago and nobody noticed it other than the people who asked to see this be performed? The Chinese kept meticulous astronomical records do they record this event? Is it in the Mayan records? Is it in the Babylonian or Byzantian records?

I didn't realise that Islam had mad stuff like Joseph Smith's spectacles but I guess all religions like a bit of the supernatural.

There is that, but then there are also people saying that it was passing and got caught up by the young earth's gravity.
There were other theories too in the thing I was watching, including the moon being a bit of the earth that fell off due to earth's rotation.

You know what - I don't think anyone really knows. The whole documentary was conjecture.
I want answers, dammit.

moses had stick that transforms into a giant snack as soon as it is thrown on ground and this happened when moses went to ramses II .
juses could return life to ppl who died and could heal and cure ppl
mohammed Peace be upon him his main miracle is koran if u have read the real koran and really understand it u will really know what i am talking about

[moslem01]

moon`s splitting for me is a true fact if my god which i believe in told me that i won`t have a 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 doubt in what god says
(gr8 no of zeros right ? )

I'm starving.

No, I take your point. Both the koran and the bible are filled with witchery that's almost certainly a result of deliberate factual embroidery. Which was a common trait of writers at the time, it seems.

As works of historical value, they're the docudrama of the library.
Which is fine, so long as you follow the values they teach rather than start arguments with people about how the moon was definitely split into two or how Jesus definitely fed a brazillion people using only his lunch-box.

[Biggles]

Fair enough

I don't believe it happened because all the people who kept astronomical records would have recorded such a remarkable event. However, I have no issue with other people believing it if they want to. I don't think I will ever be joining in unless I see something more substantial in the historical records though.

Did you look up the Book of Mormon btw - it is even madder but they have millions of members and one came close to being selected as the next Republican candidate for President this time round.
