Sura 54 is entitled, "The Moon" and  starts right away by giving us the news about  the splitting of the moon as a sign of the end of the world. It is interesting to know that of all the available translations of the Quran , it was only Dr. Khalifa's translation that pointed to the fulfillment of this prophecy and pointed exactly to the mathematical miracle of the Quran and its relation to the splitting of the moon. 

Let us focus on verse [54:1]: “The hour has drawn closer, and the moon has split ”

Here is Dr.Khalifa’s footnote on the verse is very interesting and enlightening: “ This 
important sign of the approaching end of the world came to pass in 1969 when humans 
landed on the moon and brought pieces of the moon to earth. At the same time, God’s 
mathematical Miracle was being gradually unveiled. Traditional Muslims opposed it, 
since it exposed the fallacy of their practices.” 

Earthrise over the lunar horizon
On July 20, 1969, after a four day trip, the Apollo astronauts arrived at the Moon.

When did the first prophecy come to pass?

To answer that, one must keep the prophecy in mind: “The moon has split.” This is a metaphor. Parts of the moon have left its surface. They no longer are part of the moon. So, the prophecy does not refer to the landing on the moon or to the first step made by Neil Armstrong but to the fact that Armstrong and Aldrin collected 21 kilograms of lunar rocks to bring them back to earth. The prophecy was fulfilled at the very moment the Astronauts left the moon in the lunar module containing 21 kilograms of rocks that had belonged to the moon.

This prophecy has come to pass on July 21 1969. Let us write those numbers down in the format used by almost all countries : 21 / 07 /1969.  We get 21071969 and 21071969 = 19 x 1109051 It is interesting to note that the american date of landing is coded. The lunar module landed on July 20 : 7 / 20 1969.  Indeed : 7201969 = 379051 X 19.

What about the time of departure?

The moment of the fulfillment is confirmed by the hour of departure. The Lunar Module left the lunar surface at 17: 54: 1 (Universal Time) or 1: 54: 1 (EDT) and as you have seen it above, verse [54:1] is the verse that deals with the prophesy. 

So, the prophecy described in verse [54:1] was fulfilled on 21 July 1969 at 17: 54: 1 (Universal Time) (1: 54: 1 EDT) when the lunar module left the moon carrying 21 kilograms of lunar rocks. 

Let us add the Sura number (54), the verse number (1), the day (21), the month (07) and the year (1969); we get: 

54 + 1 + 21 + 7 +1969 = 2052 or 19 x 108. 

There are 4845 verses, from the beginning of the Qu’ran to verse [54:1] and 4845 = 19 x 255. 

So, nobody can deny that verse [54:1] refers to the fact that Neil Armstrong and Aldrin left the moon with parts of the moon. 

Now, let us read verse [54:1], verses [54:2, 3] and Dr. Khalifa’s footnote. 

[54:1]: “The hour has drawn closer, and the moon has split ”

[54:2] “Then they saw a great miracle; but they turned away and said, “Old magic.”

[54:3] They disbelieved, followed their opinions, and adhered to their old traditions

Footnote: “ This important sign of the approaching end of the world came to pass in 1969 when humans landed on the moon and brought pieces of the moon to earth. At the same time, God’s mathematical Miracle was being gradually unveiled. Traditional Muslims opposed it, since it exposed the fallacy of their practices.” 

As Khalifa makes it quite clear, verse [54: 2, 3] refers to the discovery of the mathematical miracle and the great news it brought: The Qu’ran is the true word of God for the mathematical code it contains is far beyond human capabilities and the Qu’ran should be the ONLY source of religious law. Hadiths and Sunnah books have nothing to do with Islam; they are lies attributed to the Prophet and are in complete contradiction with the Qu’ran. 

"This Quran could not possibly be authored by other than God. It confirms all previous 
messages, and provides a fully detailed scripture. It is infallible; for it comes from the 
Lord of the universe." 10:37

"Shall I seek other than God as a source of law, when He has revealed this book fully 
detailed? Those who received the Scripture recognize that it has been revealed from your  Lord, truthfully. You shall not harbor any doubt." 6:114

Khalifa’s translation of verses [54:2, 3] is the true translation. It is proven by the fact that verse [54:1] deals with a prophecy fulfilled in 1969 and the unveiling of the mathematical as well as the arrival of the true Islam occurred after 1969. But traditionalists turned away from the miracle after first accepting it when they understood that accepting meant rejecting their traditions. 

If we count the number of words "Al-Qamar" or "The Moon" from the beginning of the Quran, we find the 19th such word in 54:1 , a strong indication of the relation of the mathematical miracle of the Quran to the moon-landing in 1969. In 54:2 GOD tells us about the 19-based mathematical code of the Quran and how people would ignore it and call it old magic. Verse 54:1 is connected to 74:30 where we find the number 19 explicitly mentioned. Note that number 541 is a prime number and it happens to be the 100th prime number. Number 100 happens to be the 74th composite (nonprime) number and it is the 30th number mentioned in the Quran. Therefore, GOD mathematically guides us to the 74:30 and the number 19. Remember that 30 is the 19th composite number.

In 74:31 GOD tells us why the number 19 was assigned by Him. The last reason is "to expose those who harbor doubt in their hearts, and the disbelievers; they will say, "What did GOD mean by this allegory?" . Again the word "Al Kaferoon" or "the disbelievers" mentioned in this verse is the 19th such word from the beginning of the Quran.  In 74:32 GOD gives another warning to such people. In 74:32 GOD takes an oath by "The Moon". If you read sura 54, GOD keeps repeating that He has made the Quran easy to learn, does any one wish to learn? GOD also warns the people about how terrible His retribution is after the warnings.

The other translations of verses [54:2, 3] cannot stand the evidence presented here. Everything happens in accordance with God’s plan and verses [54:1, 2, 3] should strengthen our faith and our position against those who cannot accept the words of God in the Quran as complete, perfect and fully detailed. Instead they find in the fabrications found in the Hadith and Sunna books another religions than the true Islam (Submission).
The rest of the Sura shows how God considers traditionalists, those who follow Hadiths 
and Sunnah or reject the warnings: 

Hadith books and the non-sense stories of the splitting of the moon

[54:1]: “The hour has drawn closer, and the moon has split ”
[54:2] Then they saw a miracle; but they turned away and said, "Old magic."
[54:3] They disbelieved, followed their opinions, and adhered to their old traditions
[54:4] Sufficient warnings have been delivered to alert them.
[54:5] Great wisdom; but all the warnings have been in vain.
[54:6] Ignore them; the day will come when the caller will announce a terrible disaster.
[54:7] With their eyes humiliated, they come out of the graves like scattered locusts.
[54:8] As they respond to the caller, the disbelievers will say, "This is a difficult day."
[54:9] The people of Noah disbelieved before them. They disbelieved our servant and
said, "Crazy!" He was persecuted.
[54:10] He implored his Lord, "I am oppressed; grant me victory."
[54:11] We then opened the gates of the sky, pouring water.
[54:12. And we caused springs to gush out of the earth. The waters met to effect a
predetermined decision.

[...]

[54:16] How terrible was My retribution after the warnings!
[54:17] We made the Quran easy to learn. Does any of you wish to learn?
[54:18] `Ad disbelieved. Consequently, how terrible was My retribution after the warnings.
[54:19] We sent upon them violent winds, on a day of continuous misery.
[54:20] It tossed the people around as if they were decayed palm tree trunks.
[54:21] How terrible was My retribution after the warnings!
[54:22] We made the Quran easy to learn. Does any of you wish to learn?
[54:23] Thamud rejected the warnings.
[54:24] They said, "Shall we follow one of us; a human being? We will then go astray,
then end up in Hell.
[54:25] "Did the message come down to him, instead of us? He is a flagrant liar."
[54:26] They will find out tomorrow who the flagrant liar is.

[...]

[54:30] Consequently, how terrible was My retribution! They have been warned.
[54:31] We sent upon them one blow, whereupon they became like harvested hay.
[54:32] We made the Quran easy to learn. Does any of you wish to learn?
[54:33] The people of Lot rejected the warnings.

[...]

[54:36] He warned them about our requital, but they ridiculed the warnings.
[54:37) They negotiated with him about his guests; we blinded them. Suffer My
retribution; you have been warned.
[54:38] Early the next morning, a devastating retribution struck them.
[54:39] Suffer My retribution; you have been warned.
[54:40] We made the Quran easy to learn. Does any of you wish to learn?
[54:41] Pharaoh's people were warned.
[54:42] They rejected all our signs. Consequently, we requited them as an Almighty,
Omnipotent should.
[54:43] ARE YOUR DISBELIEVERS BETTER THAN THOSE DISBELIEVERS?
HAVE YOU BEEN ABSOLVED BY THE SCRIPTURE?
[54:44] Perhaps they think, "We will be the winners."
[54:45] All of them will be defeated; they will turn around and flee.
[54:46] The Hour is awaiting them, and the Hour is far worse and more painful.
[54:47] Certainly, the guilty are astray, and will end up in Hell.
[54:48] They will be dragged into the hellfire, forcibly. Suffer the agony of retribution.
[54:49] Everything we created is precisely measured.
[54:50] Our commands are done within the blink of an eye.
[54:51] We annihilated your counterparts. Does any of you wish to learn?

[...]

[54:54] Surely, the righteous have deserved gardens and rivers.
[54:55] In a position of honor, at an Omnipotent King.

As you can see, the traditionalists who reject the mathematical miracle, uphold Hadiths and Sunnah and commit idol-worship in numerous ways are just like the people of Noah, [54:9], the people of `Ad [54:18], the people of Thamud [54:23], the people of Lot [54:33], the people of Pharaoh [54:41]. They are NO different. The people who reject God’s warnings are severely punished as it is described by God in Sura 54. Traditionalists will end up in hell just like the others [54:47] for they reject the warnings just like the others [54:3, 4, 5, 16, 18, 21, 23, 30, 33, 36, 37, 39, 41]. People who turn to the true Islam are blessed by God. They make a very important decision that will ensure their happiness now and forever. Those Submitters should read Sura 54, as well as the rest of the Qu’ran, carefully and obey God’s commandments:

[54:6] Ignore them.

Praying with traditionalists or practicing our religion with them is disobeying God. God tells you to ignore them. Now let us look at one of the most important verses of Sura 54:

[54:43] ARE YOUR DISBELIEVERS BETTER THAN THOSE DISBELIEVERS?
HAVE YOU BEEN ABSOLVED BY THE SCRIPTURE?

God is asking you a question. Are today's traditionalists better than the people of Noah, [54:9], the people of `Ad [54:18], the people of Thamud [54:23], the people of Lot [54:33], the people of Pharaoh [54:41]?  To God, they are no different. It is not because they follow the same SCRIPTURE that they are BETTER than the other DISBELIEVERS. God is directly addressing the Submitters who still think that they are closer to today's so-called "Muslims." than other disbelievers. They must know that they now have new brothers and sisters who devote their religion absolutely to God ALONE and that a day will come when they will find in every corner of this earth a Mosque devoted to God ONLY. Until then their homes where Only God is worshipped is better than any of these traditionalists' mosques. See 9:107-108

[9:107] There are those who abuse the masjid by practicing idol worship, dividing the believers, and providing comfort to those who oppose GOD and His messenger. They solemnly swear: "Our intentions are honorable!" GOD bears witness that they are liars.

Do Not Pray in Those Masjids

[9:108] You shall never pray in such a masjid. A masjid that is established on the basis of righteousness from the first day is more worthy of your praying therein. In it, there are people who love to be purified. GOD loves those who purify themselves.

PRAISE BE TO GOD.

God Almighty described His Mathematical Miracle of the Quran as one of the great miracles, swearing by the moon and by the night and day, see 74:35.  Like all the miracles of God ,  it is intended for the sincere believers, those who seek Him ALONE and do not hesitate to worship Him ALONE. Miracles of God were never meant to convince the disbelievers or insincere people to change their minds. Since God 's rule is clearly stated "There shall be no compulsion in religion" 2:256 , the miracles were reserved ONLY for those who already committed themselves to worshipping God ALONE. The others do not see or appreciate any aspect of the miracle. They did not deserve it according to God. See Pharoah's example in the Quran. [7:146] I will divert from My revelations those who are arrogant on earth, without justification. Consequently, when they see every kind of proof they will not believe. And when they see the path of guidance they will not adopt it as their path, but when they see the path of straying they will adopt it as their path. This is the consequence of their rejecting our proofs, and being totally heedless thereof.

Hadith books and the non-sense stories of the splitting of the moon:

The Muslims scholars and those who collected the Hadiths books, unaware of the greatness of the Quran and its miracles tried to create a miracle for the prophet Muhammed by claiming that he split the moon. Not only did they show their lack of understanding of the Quran but they also showed their mistrust of God, the author of the Quran , who told us that Muhammed had no other miracle but the Quran.

[29:50] They said, "If only miracles could come down to him (Muhammed) from his Lord!" Say, "All miracles come only from GOD; I am no more than a manifest warner."

God insisted on exposing them. In making such a lie, they expressed what they thought would be a good story by claiming that the moon split and part of it fell on or behind the mountain while another part fell in front of the mountain. At the time of making such a lie the people were unaware of the size of the moon or the meaning of a part of it falling from the sky and into the desert infront of them. Such lies that fill the Hadith books are only extra signs for the sincere believers who realize that the ONLY acceptable Hadith is the Quran.

[45:6 ] "These are God's revelations that we recite to you truthfully. In which HADITH other than God and His revelations do they believe?"

Here is some of the Hadiths that talk about splitting of the moon and give one of the biggest lies in the Hadiths books. (Compare these lies with the clear presentation of the Quran that is registered by NASA officially and for generations to come.)

Sahih Moslem, Book 039, Number 6725:

This hadith has been transmitted on the authority of Abdullah b. Mas'ud (who said): We were along with Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) at Mina, that moon was split up into two. One of its parts was behind the mountain and the other one was on this side of the mountain. Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said to us: Bear witness to this.

Sahih Moslem, Book 039, Number 6726:

'Abdullah b. Mas'ud reported that the moon was split up in two parts during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him). The mountain covered one of its parts and one part of it was above the mountain and Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Bear witness to this.

Sahih Bukhary, Volume 6, Book 60, Number 387:

Narrated Ibn Masud:

During the lifetime of Allah's Apostle the moon was split into two parts; one part remained over the mountain, and the other part went beyond the mountain. On that, Allah's Apostle said, "Witness this miracle."

SPLITTING OF THE MOON

SURA 54, THE FULFILLMENT OF TWO GREAT PROPHESIES

Sura 54 is entitled, "The Moon" and starts right away by giving us the news about
the splitting of the moon as a sign of the end of the world. It is interesting to know that
of all the available translations of the Quran , it was only Dr. Khalifa's translation that
pointed to the fulfillment of this prophecy and pointed exactly to the mathematical
miracle of the Quran and its relation to the splitting of the moon.

Let us focus on verse [54:1]: “The hour has drawn closer, and the moon has split ”

Here is Dr.Khalifa’s footnote on the verse is very interesting and enlightening: “ This
important sign of the approaching end of the world came to pass in 1969 when humans
landed on the moon and brought pieces of the moon to earth. At the same time, God’s
mathematical Miracle was being gradually unveiled. Traditional Muslims opposed it,
since it exposed the fallacy of their practices.”

Earthrise over the lunar horizon
On July 20, 1969, after a four day trip, the Apollo astronauts arrived at the Moon.

When did the first prophecy come to pass?

To answer that, one must keep the prophecy in mind: “The moon has split.” This is
a metaphor. Parts of the moon have left its surface. They no longer are part of the moon.
So, the prophecy does not refer to the landing on the moon or to the first step made by
Neil Armstrong but to the fact that Armstrong and Aldrin collected 21 kilograms of lunar
rocks to bring them back to earth. The prophecy was fulfilled at the very moment the
Astronauts left the moon in the lunar module containing 21 kilograms of rocks that had
belonged to the moon.

This prophecy has come to pass on July 21 1969. Let us write those numbers down in the format
used by almost all countries : 21 / 07 /1969.
We get 21071969 and 21071969 = 19 x 1109051
It is interesting to note that the american date of landing is coded. The lunar module landed
on July 20 : 7 / 20 1969.
Indeed : 7201969 = 379051 X 19.

What about the time of departure?

The moment of the fulfillment is confirmed by the hour of departure. The Lunar Module
left the lunar surface at 17: 54: 1 (Universal Time) or 1: 54: 1 (EDT) and as you have
seen it above, verse [54:1] is the verse that deals with the prophesy.

So, the prophecy described in verse [54:1] was fulfilled on 21 July 1969 at 17: 54: 1
(Universal Time) (1: 54: 1 EDT) when the lunar module left the moon carrying 21
kilograms of lunar rocks.

Let us add the Sura number (54), the verse number (1), the day (21), the month (07) and
the year (1969); we get:

54 + 1 + 21 + 7 +1969 = 2052 or 19 x 108.

There are 4845 verses, from the beginning of the Qu’ran to verse [54:1] and
4845 = 19 x 255.

So, nobody can deny that verse [54:1] refers to the fact that Neil Armstrong and Aldrin
left the moon with parts of the moon.

Now, let us read verse [54:1], verses [54:2, 3] and Dr. Khalifa’s footnote.

[54:1]: “The hour has drawn closer, and the moon has split ”

[54:2] “Then they saw a great miracle; but they turned away and said, “Old magic.”

[54:3] They disbelieved, followed their opinions, and adhered to their old traditions

Footnote: “ This important sign of the approaching end of the world came to pass in 1969
when humans landed on the moon and brought pieces of the moon to earth. At the same
time, God’s mathematical Miracle was being gradually unveiled. Traditional Muslims
opposed it, since it exposed the fallacy of their practices.”

As Khalifa makes it quite clear, verse [54: 2, 3] refers to the discovery of the mathematical
miracle and the great news it brought: The Qu’ran is the true word of God for the
mathematical code it contains is far beyond human capabilities and the Qu’ran should be the
ONLY source of religious law. Hadiths and Sunnah books have nothing to do with Islam;
they are lies attributed to the Prophet and are in complete contradiction with the Qu’ran.

"This Quran could not possibly be authored by other than God. It confirms all previous
messages, and provides a fully detailed scripture. It is infallible; for it comes from the
Lord of the universe." 10:37

"Shall I seek other than God as a source of law, when He has revealed this book fully
detailed? Those who received the Scripture recognize that it has been revealed from your Lord, truthfully. You shall not harbor any doubt." 6:114

Khalifa’s translation of verses [54:2, 3] is the true translation. It is proven by the fact that
verse [54:1] deals with a prophecy fulfilled in 1969 and the unveiling of the mathematical as
well as the arrival of the true Islam occurred after 1969. But traditionalists turned away from
the miracle after first accepting it when they understood that accepting meant rejecting their
traditions.

If we count the number of words "Al-Qamar" or "The Moon" from the beginning of the Quran, we find the 19th such word in 54:1 , a strong indication of the relation of the mathematical miracle of the Quran to the moon-landing in 1969. In 54:2 GOD tells us about the 19-based mathematical code of the Quran and how people would ignore it and call it old magic. Verse 54:1 is connected to 74:30 where we find the number 19 explicitly mentioned. Note that number 541 is a prime number and it happens to be the 100th prime number. Number 100 happens to be the 74th composite (nonprime) number and it is the 30th number mentioned in the Quran. Therefore, GOD mathematically guides us to the 74:30 and the number 19. Remember that 30 is the 19th composite number.

In 74:31 GOD tells us why the number 19 was assigned by Him. The last reason is "to expose those who harbor doubt in their hearts, and the disbelievers; they will say, "What did GOD mean by this allegory?" . Again the word "Al Kaferoon" or "the disbelievers" mentioned in this verse is the 19th such word from the beginning of the Quran. In 74:32 GOD gives another warning to such people. In 74:32 GOD takes an oath by "The Moon". If you read sura 54, GOD keeps repeating that He has made the Quran easy to learn, does any one wish to learn? GOD also warns the people about how terrible His retribution is after the warnings.

The other translations of verses [54:2, 3] cannot stand the evidence presented here.
Everything happens in accordance with God’s plan and verses [54:1, 2, 3] should
strengthen our faith and our position against those who cannot accept the words of
God in the Quran as complete, perfect and fully detailed. Instead they find in the fabrications
found in the Hadith and Sunna books another religions than the true Islam (Submission).
The rest of the Sura shows how God considers traditionalists, those who follow Hadiths
and Sunnah or reject the warnings:

[54:55] In a position of honor, at an Omnipotent King.

As you can see, the traditionalists who reject the mathematical miracle, uphold
Hadiths and Sunnah and commit idol-worship in numerous ways are just like the
people of Noah, [54:9], the people of `Ad [54:18], the people of Thamud [54:23],
the people of Lot [54:33], the people of Pharaoh [54:41]. They are NO different.
The people who reject God’s warnings are severely punished as it is described by
God in Sura 54. Traditionalists will end up in hell just like the others
[54:47] for they reject the warnings just like the others [54:3, 4, 5, 16, 18, 21, 23,
30, 33, 36, 37, 39, 41]. People who turn to the true Islam are blessed by God.
They make a very important decision that will ensure their happiness now and forever.
Those Submitters should read Sura 54, as well as the rest of the Qu’ran, carefully
and obey God’s commandments:

[54:6] Ignore them.

Praying with traditionalists or practicing our religion with them is disobeying God.
God tells you to ignore them.

Now let us look at one of the most important verses of Sura 54:

[54:43] ARE YOUR DISBELIEVERS BETTER THAN THOSE DISBELIEVERS?
HAVE YOU BEEN ABSOLVED BY THE SCRIPTURE?

God is asking you a question. Are today's traditionalists better than the people of Noah,
[54:9], the people of `Ad [54:18], the people of Thamud [54:23], the people of Lot
[54:33], the people of Pharaoh [54:41]? To God, they are no different. It is not
because they follow the same SCRIPTURE that they are BETTER than the other
DISBELIEVERS. God is directly addressing the Submitters who still think that they are
closer to today's so-called "Muslims." than other disbelievers. They must know that
they now have new brothers and sisters who devote their religion absolutely to God
ALONE and that a day will come when they will find in every corner of this earth a
Mosque devoted to God ONLY. Until then their homes where Only God is worshipped
is better than any of these traditionalists' mosques. See 9:107-108

[9:107] There are those who abuse the masjid by practicing idol worship, dividing the believers, and providing comfort to those who oppose GOD and His messenger. They solemnly swear: "Our intentions are honorable!" GOD bears witness that they are liars.

Do Not Pray in Those Masjids

[9:108] You shall never pray in such a masjid. A masjid that is established on the basis of righteousness from the first day is more worthy of your praying therein. In it, there are people who love to be purified. GOD loves those who purify themselves.

PRAISE BE TO GOD.

God Almighty described His Mathematical Miracle of the Quran as one of the great miracles, swearing by the moon and by the night and day, see 74:35. Like all the miracles of God , it is intended for the sincere believers, those who seek Him ALONE and do not hesitate to worship Him ALONE. Miracles of God were never meant to convince the disbelievers or insincere people to change their minds. Since God 's rule is clearly stated "There shall be no compulsion in religion" 2:256 , the miracles were reserved ONLY for those who already committed themselves to worshipping God ALONE. The others do not see or appreciate any aspect of the miracle. They did not deserve it according to God. See Pharoah's example in the Quran.

[7:146]

I will divert from My revelations those who are arrogant
on earth, without justification. Consequently, when they
see every kind of proof they will not believe. And when
they see the path of guidance they will not adopt it as
their path, but when they see the path of straying they
will adopt it as their path. This is the consequence of
their rejecting our proofs, and being totally heedless
thereof.

Hadith books and the non-sense stories of the splitting of the moon:

The Muslims scholars and those who collected the Hadiths books, unaware of the greatness of the Quran and its miracles tried to create a miracle for the prophet Muhammed by claiming that he split the moon. Not only did they show their lack of understanding of the Quran but they also showed their mistrust of God, the author of the Quran , who told us that Muhammed had no other miracle but the Quran.

[29:50] They said, "If only miracles could come down to him (Muhammed) from his Lord!" Say, "All miracles come only from GOD; I am no more than a manifest warner."

God insisted on exposing them. In making such a lie, they expressed what they thought would be a good story by claiming that the moon split and part of it fell on or behind the mountain while another part fell in front of the mountain. At the time of making such a lie the people were unaware of the size of the moon or the meaning of a part of it falling from the sky and into the desert infront of them. Such lies that fill the Hadith books are only extra signs for the sincere believers who realize that the ONLY acceptable Hadith is the Quran.

[45:6 ] "These are God's revelations that we recite to you truthfully. In which HADITH other than God and His revelations do they believe?"

Here is some of the Hadiths that talk about splitting of the moon and give one of the biggest lies in the Hadiths books. (Compare these lies with the clear presentation of the Quran that is registered by NASA officially and for generations to come.)

Sahih Moslem, Book 039, Number 6725:

This hadith has been transmitted on the authority of Abdullah b. Mas'ud (who said): We were along with Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) at Mina, that moon was split up into two. One of its parts was behind the mountain and the other one was on this side of the mountain. Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said to us: Bear witness to this.

Sahih Moslem, Book 039, Number 6726:

'Abdullah b. Mas'ud reported that the moon was split up in two parts during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him). The mountain covered one of its parts and one part of it was above the mountain and Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Bear witness to this.

Sahih Bukhary, Volume 6, Book 60, Number 387:

Narrated Ibn Masud:

During the lifetime of Allah's Apostle the moon was split into two parts; one part remained over the mountain, and the other part went beyond the mountain. On that, Allah's Apostle said, "Witness this miracle."
