Assalamo Alaikum

May Allah bless you, and increase your knowledge!

Here is your question:

 

ASSALAMO ALAIKUM

 

COULD YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY AAYAHS 2 TO 4 OF SURAH 30 ARE CONSIDERED TO HAVE HISTORICAL AND SCIENTIFIC MIRACLES IN THEM?

 

JAZAK ALLAH

 

ANSWER:

The Iranians had defeated Byzantines in the war, and had expelled them from the Middle East. The pagans of Makkah were allies of Iranians, who themselves were

Fire-worshippers. The pagans became happy because the fire-worshippers had defeated the believers in God, as the Byzantinians were Christians. The pagans of Makkah were taunting Muslims- Believers in God- of the defeat of Byzantine. In reply to their taunt, Allah revealed these ayaat to console Muslims that within a few years the Byzantinians would defeat Iranians and capture their country. Lo, and behold! It did happen within seven years after the revelation of these ayaat.
