Title: Moon Splitting Explanation
Post by: Reader Questions on May 14, 2012, 12:54:08 AM
Salamun alikum Brother

I am in disagreement with my friends who uphold the traditional view and argue with me regarding the moon split in Quran. Surah 54:1 "The Hour has come near, and the moon has split [in two]."

Based on this surah my friends are arguing that Prophet had split the moon in two by index fingers and trying to prove that Hadith is true

Please can you give me your perspective and explanation about the Surah 54:1
