ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Islamic view of miracles

A miracle is something that goes against the laws of nature, like if a person could suddenly fly or walk on water. In the Islamic religion, God is believed to be able to do miracles. Miracles are seen as signs that God is powerful and wants to show His love for people. Islam also teaches that prophets and messengers from God can perform miracles to prove that their message is from God. They are seen as signs from God that what they are saying is true. For example, the Prophet Muhammad is said to have done miracles like splitting the moon.
