The Divine Signs: The Moon
'Verily, the Moon and Sun show signs of your grandeur. Nevertheless, the evidence of your truthfulness is in your dwelling in my heart' - Sufi Master Younus AlGohar
Prophet Mohammad (saw) showed many miracles. For example, one day he was going somewhere and Abu Jahl approached him and he called out, ‘O’ Mohammad! If you can tell me what is concealed in my palm, I will believe you are a prophet.’ And Prophet Mohammad (saw) said, ‘Wouldn’t it be better if the thing in your palm tells you who I am?’ The pebbles Abu Jahl had in his palm began reciting the Motto of Faith. Prophet Mohammad (saw) made the pebbles recite the Motto of Faith yet Abu Jahl was deprived of faith.
Prophet Mohammad (saw) split the moon into two despite that the infidels remained infidels. A human mind would think what was the point of showing such miracles? The devout believers would become connected to God by adopting the teachings, the fair-minded would look at the character and accept, and the disbelievers will be shown these miracles just so it can be said that no group was deprived of being shown the truth. The predestined loving souls do not need to be shown miracles to have faith. Why? Because the teachings the spiritual personality renders makes their hearts a symbol of God.
The hearts of the devout believers are a miracle itself.
The heart that was dormant for 30-40 years and then through the blissful sight of HDE Gohar Shahi it began to say 'Allah Hu' and now it doesn't stop. Look at this miracle! This is the miracle that can secure your hereafter.
Splitting the moon into two was necessary [at the time] but it did not benefit anyone. Moses’s staff turned into a snake but nobody benefited from it. However, these signs of God are such that when you have the teachings of Imam Mehdi in your heart, they will make your heart a symbol like the Holy Black Stone. They will make your heart a divine sign like the Moon and Sun.
As per Quran 41:53, ‘We will show them our signs in the near future, in the horizons and within their beings until they are convinced that this is the truth.’
The revival of the heart and God's name written upon the heart, and the Imam Mehdi that the world is looking for, you can see Him in your heart. Is it not a miracle that you heard mention of HDE Gohar Shahi's face on the Moon and when you went to sleep the Moon came to you in your dream and His Divine Eminence comes out from the Moon and tells you that He is the Mehdi. These are the signs of God and those who reject them became disbelievers.
When Prophet Mohammad (saw) split the moon in two, rather than believing it, people would say it is black magic. Prophet Mohammad (saw), at that time, said, ‘Magic does not affect the moon.’ And when HDE Gohar Shahi appeared, in His era, God again used the Moon as a sign but this time, it was better. When we tell people that the image of HDE Gohar Shahi is on the Moon, even if they see it, they will say, 'Yes, but it is black magic.’ When we tell them that the Prophet said that black magic is ineffective on the moon, they will remain quiet but won't believe it still.
