The scriptures of Judaism, Hinduism, Christianity and Islam refer to many miracles performed by the proponents of these religions. Although the greatest miracle of Prophet Muhammad is the Qur'an itself yet the Prophet did, on many occasions, perform miracles when demanded by the unbelievers. Though these acts of marvel are contained in authentic books of history but it is hard to prove their validity in this modern age.
However, there have been many marvelous discoveries in the current century, which cast ample light on the Divinity and Truth of Islam and are provable through valid documentary evidence. I briefly state two of such discoveries for the benefit of seekers of truth :
-
DISCOVERY NO. 1
In the month of July 1951, a team of Russian experts was in search of mines in the vicinity of Mt. Jude on the border of Soviet Union and Turkey. They came across some buried dilapidated wooden planks, etc., of unusual disposition. Along the planks was a wooden plate about 14 inches long and 10 inches wide. On the plate was engraved some words in an unknown language. In 1953 the specialists who examined these planks, after a thorough research, concluded that these planks were part of the famous Ark of Noah. As regards the engraved wooden plate the government of Soviet Union appointed an Investigating commission, on July 27, 1953, comprising the following:
Specialist on Archeology, a Professor of Lenin Institute
Director of Zenkerman Research Association
In charge of Department of Archeology
Overseer of Investigations, Stalin College
Professor of Languages, University of Moscow
Expert on old languages, Lolohan college of China
Professor of Languages, Caferd college
1.Prof. Solomon, Moscow University.
2.Prof. Ifa Han Kheeno, Lu Lu Han College, China.
3.Mr. Mishaou Lu Farug. Officer I/c fossils.
4.Mr. Taumol Goru, Teacher, Cafezud College.
5.Prof. De Pakan, Lenin Institute.
6.Mr. M.Ahmad Colad, Zitcomen Research Association.
7.Major Cottor, Stalin College.
These seven experts conducted their deliberations for about eight months and declared that this plate is made up of the same wood with which the Ark of Noah was built. The wording engraved on the plate belong to a very old language known as Samani. These wordings were transformed into Russian. Professor N.F. Thomas, expert of old languages from Manchester, England translated the writing into English. There was a small figure of a palm of a hand and five fingers. "On five fingers the wordings were Mohammed, Alia, Shabber, Shabbir, Fatema. O God, my helper I keep my hand with mercy with your holy bodies. They are all biggest and honorable. The world was established for them. Help me by their name. You can reform light. "
This plate is safely preserved in the Museum of Archeology and Research, Moscow, Soviet Union.

DISCOVERY No. 2
Torah, Bible and Qur'an mention the name of Solomon with grace and honour. The Qur"an in Sura Al Namal describes him as aglorious king with vast territory and superior knowledge. His authority was exercised not only over humans but also on genies and animals, as he could understand the meaning of animal voices and utterances. He had a metal plate known as "Loh – e - Suleman. " The following incident refers to this plate or ‘Loh' .
During World War 1 a contingent of British army was passing through a village named Auntera, a few miles away from Jerusalem. They saw a strange light coming out of a mound of earth. They tried to locate the origination of the amazing light and started digging the ground. They dug almost 12 feet and found a decorated plate of silver about ¾ of a yard long and half a yard wide. The border had expensive jewels and there was an inscription in the middle in letters of gold in a language not known to them. They gave this plate to their officer, Major A.N. Grindel. This Major sent this plate to the Commander-in-Chief of the British Army, General D.O. Kindstone. He could visualize the importance of this precious discovery and made it over to the British Department of Archeology.
At the end of the war in 1918 experts of three countries viz. – Britain, France and the USA got together and began their research and concluded on January 31, 1920 that the plate in fact is the famous sacred LOH of Soloman. The inscription on the plate is in old Hebrew. This inscription translated into English means God , Ahmed, Batool, Hassan, Husain, Ya Aeli help, Ya Mohammed come, Ya Batool look Ya Hasan bestow favors ya Husain give me joy Aeli Aeli Aeli . This Solomon is craving for help, from these five.God's help is Aeli. The board of experts advised that this plate (Loh of Solomon) be placed in the British Musuem, but on the direction of the Archbishop of England, this plate was transferred to the store of a church in London for safe keeping.

Note:
The title ‘Batool' is given only to two women since the inception of this world: one was Mary mother of Christ and the other was Fatemah daughter of the Prophet Momammed (wife of Ali and mother of Hasan and Husain) , because they were bestowed by God with exceptional purity and cleanliness of body.
