[54.1] The hour drew nigh and the moon did rend asunder.
[54.2] And if they see a miracle they turn aside and say: Transient magic.
[54.3] And they call (it) a lie, and follow their low desires; and every affair has its appointed term.
[54.4] And certainly some narratives have come to them wherein is prevention--
[54.5] Consummate wisdom-- but warnings do not avail;
[54.6] So turn (your) back on them (for) the day when the inviter shall invite them to a hard task,
[54.7] Their eyes cast down, going forth from their graves as if they were scattered locusts,
[54.8] Hastening to the inviter. The unbelievers shall say: This is a hard day.
A future event
Selam guys.
I have read numerous posts continually saying as the hadiths do, that Prophet Muhammad split the moon (there is also some minority Shia groups who like to argue it was Imam Ali)
The hadiths are well documented ( will reference at the end).
There are many fallacies to such an ideology.
Now to my understanding of the Quran and life is;
1.
When something reaches its "appointed time" there is no possibility of return. A good example of this is when the Mountain reaching its appointed term and crumbled, in the Musa incident.
Appointed term means that the next time you open your eyes (resurrected) after death, you will be on that day. This applies not only for intelligent humans but for every atom and even smaller, including the mentioned Mountain.
At 54.3 we clearly see the moon has reached this pinnacle point.
2.
Natural (universal) governing law states if the moon splits, due to its gravitational pull major catastrophes will occur on earth. The earth itself will loose its tilt (depending on how the moon split and the extent of damage will determine the tilt or the catastrophes speed of occurrence ( it will however not be instantly )).
3. We also know that if the moon splits, it must/can/will be
Witnessed by other nations and not just to a few in the desert.
If only they saw it and it really did happen
THEN
This incident actually becomes an illusion for the eye or as the Quran states, Transient Magic.
What is magic? It is when the eye is tricked into believing something goes against the natural law.
A Miracle is if the natural law TRUELY does something unnatural.
Therefore in this ideology based on Hadith, Prophet Muhammad deceived them. Again no catastrophes or other witnesses.
4.
54.7 clearly is speaking about resurrection.
May I ask who was resurrected on that day and why haven't the hadiths recorded them?
-----------------
Now to the more plausible explanation of this Surah.
Inshallah you all understand my perspective.
I see the Quran is explaining the story as though you are living that moment.
BEFORE YOU READ THIS SURAH, try doing to imagine yourself on that day (in future not past) when we witness the moon splitting for the appointed day to arrive.
The Quran is explaining it from your own perspective.
54.1
You just watched the moon split
54.2
Others saw it but are calling it Transient Magic or CGI.
People are watching it on the news, YouTube, media or any other medium and saying it's a lie. Even those that look up in the sky believe it is just an illusion
54.3
People continue there normal task due to claiming its a lie
54.4-5
Can not comment if this has been given yet but I do believe it may be in regards to the current moon splitting situation (Lunar Graben). The U.S also have been hitting the moon with rockets (coincidently Haiti earthquake happen just after it, hmmmmm).
54.6
Now it tells us what to do on that day. Turn your backs to them.
The Inviter inviting is referring to the resurrection of those who claimed it will never happen. (it could be an angel or just the realization that what there is such a day. I say this because it is linked to the following ayat 54.7.
54.8
Here the realization of their resurrection is cemented.
54.9 and onwards
It is explaining those who are reaching their appointed term. As mentioned earlier, The next time these characters open their eyes, it will be that day (the day of order is the day you die)
