For example, during the time of Moses and Pharaoh, sorcery and magic had reached its
highest peak. To prove to Pharaoh and his nation that Prophet Moses had been sent
with the truth, Allah caused the staff of Moses, to turn into a serpent and devour
the
magical snakes of the sorcerers. When the sorcerers saw the miracle they surrendered
immediately to the truth, knowing well that the miracle was a reality whereas their skills
were nothing other than skilled trickery.
Another example is that of the miracles given to Jesus. Prophet Jesus was sent at a time
when the art of healing had reached an extremely high level. Among the healing
miracles Allah permitted him was that he might raise the dead and heal the sick from
incurable diseases. Physician and layman alike witnessed these miracles and knew that
they were not the skills of a skillful physician, rather they were divine, holy miracles given
to Jesus by his Creator.
