This book is one of many on the subject. But it is undoubtedly the most comprehensive and systematic of all. May Allah accept his noble efforts, grant the book due popularity, and make it beneficial to all who read.

The miracles of the Prophet (saw) is an outstanding book of Al-Muhaddith Ibn Katheer which deals with the miracles performed by the Prophet Muhammad (saw) over the twenty three years of his Prophethood. About the Author Al Hafidh Ibn Katheer was born in Busra located in Modern day Syria, in the year 701 AH, 1303 CE. After the death of his father, Ibn Katheer travelled together with his brother to Syria during the year 707 AH to seek knowledge. He was known to have a strong memory and a fine understanding. Ibn Hajr (ra) said: "He was the representative of the science of Hadith among the scholars of jurisprudence and during his lifetime, he authored books which benefited people even after his death. He rose to be among the most prominent scholars specializing in the science of hadith, history and exegesis (Tafsir). He died in the month of Sha'ban in the year 774 AH - 1373 CE in Damascus and was buried at the cemetery of Al-Sufiyah besides Ibn Taymiyyah (ra).

This title presents miracles, as well as exploring the various reasons why miracles are granted to Prophets.

ALLAH SWT, Our Creator, created the realm of living creatures in the most perfect manner, designed all creatures as a wonderful work of art and a book of wisdom and it is the requirement of His wisdom to send a guide that will let us see the beauties of these creatures and read these books of wisdom and make them known by us because an inapprehensible book without a teacher is no more than a nonsensical page. The universe is just like a wonderful book that contains such deep meanings. Since the wisdom of our creator requires sending a guide and teacher, of course, His guide or teacher will have the ultimate sound reason and mind. Since He will select this guide among the ones who have reason, He will select the one who is perfect both in talent and morals. This servant and slave of His is none other than Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), who has been approved both by allies and foes. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is the exemplary person and the teacher who was selected by Allah, Our God for us as His slaves. He faced the denial of the people when He started to declare the divine case just like all other prophets who were given the duty of prophethood. As a custom of God, every prophet showed some miracles in order to prove the authenticity of their case. Miracles are actions that stun its witnesses. That is, showing a deed which cannot be done by those who see it. Though this deed is seen as a deed of the prophet, it is actually a deed which is made by God through the hands of the prophet; that is, the real doer is God. So, the miracles of the prophets are deeds which are beyond the capacity of other people shown by prophets and created by God that strengthen the belief of believers and cause unbelievers to have belief. For example, "the flowing of water from a hand's fingers like a fountain" is a deed that a man cannot do.

The Qur'an is the greatest miracle of God (Allah) and the Qur'an is the proof of the truthfulness of Islam. It is the standing and everlasting miracle, but very rarely, have we heard how is it a miracle? The Qur'an is the ultimate miracle of our Prophet Muhammad (Sallahualaihi wassalam - S.A.W). It is such a miracle that all the other miracles are considered trivial and inconsequential compared to the Qur'an. This is because the Qur'an is so powerful, so bright and blinding that no matter how bright the other miracles are; when you have the sun, the stars become useless. In this book, Dr. Yasir Qadhi discussed on the miracles of the Qur'an that we either have never acknowledge or we often overlooked. The miracles of the Qur'an are endless and the points are abundance to be mentioned.
