Question

When the moon of earth split into two halves and by whome.

Answer 1

The splitting of the moon ( Arabic: ﺍﻧﺸﻘﺎﻕ ﺍﻟﻘﻤﺮ ) was a claimed miracle attributed to the Islamic prophet Muhammad. [1] It is derived from the
Quranic verses 54:1-2 , and mentioned by
Muslim traditions such as the Asbab al-nuzul (context of revelation). Most Muslim commentators interpret the event as a literal split in the moon , while some others identify it as an event that will happen at judgment day or an optical illusion. The splitting of the moon was never reported in any other country.
Early traditions supporting a literal interpretation are transmitted on the authority of companions of Muhammad such as Ibn Abbas , Anas bin Malik , Abdullah bin Masud and others. [2][3] According to the Indian Muslim scholar
Abdullah Yusuf Ali , the moon will split again when the day of judgment approaches. He says that the verses may also have an allegorical meaning, i.e. the matter has become clear as the moon. [4] The Qur'anic verses 54:1-2 was part of the debate between medieval Muslim theologians and Muslim philosophers over the issue of the inviolability of heavenly bodies. In 2010 a NASA Lunar Science Institute (NLSI) staff scientist named Brad Bailey said, "No current scientific evidence reports that the Moon was split into two (or more) parts and then reassembled at any point in the past." [5]
The narrative was used by some later Muslims to convince others of the prophethood of Muhammad. [6] It has also inspired many Muslim poets, especially in India.
