Status Updates From Atlas on the Prophet's Biog...

Verily, We have seen the turning of your (Muhammad's saw) face towards the heaven. Surely, We shall turn you to a Qiblah (prayer direction) that shall please you, so turn your face in the direction of Al-Masjid Al-Haram (at Makkah). And wheresoever you people are, turn your faces (in prayer) in that direction [Qur'an 2:144]

Say (O Muhammad saw): 'It has been revealed to me that a group (from three to ten in number) of jinn listened (to this Qur'an). They said: 'Verily, we have heard a wonderful Recitation (this Qur'an). 'It guides to the Right Path, and we have believed therein, and we shall never join (in worship) anything with our Lord (Allah)' (72:1-2)

The miracles of the previous Prophets (a.s) were temporary and came to an end immediately after they happened, so they belong in the past. But the miracle of Muhammad (saw) is lasting and eternal, namely the Qur'an, in which new miraculous aspects will always be discovered. Pgs 11-12

Im so glad my father persuaded me to buy this atlas, because otherwise i would of gone straight to the New York Times Best Sellers Section. I currently just finished reading The Year of The Elephant( section in the atlas), and the information that i thought i knew was belittled (?)by what i have discovered about Surah Al Feel, it was just so unexpectedly interesting.
