I don't understand the idea of Allah sending down iron and the fact that the Quran mentions it is a miracle. Many different things were send down by allah:

039.006
YUSUFALI: He created you from a single person: then created, of like nature, his mate; and he sent down for you eight head of cattle in pairs: He makes you, in the wombs of your mothers, in stages, one after another, in three veils of darkness. such is Allah, your Lord and Cherisher: to Him belongs dominion. There is no god but He: then how are ye turned away?

010.059
YUSUFALI: Say: "See ye what things Allah hath sent down to you for sustenance? Yet ye hold forbidden some things thereof and lawful." Say: "Hath Allah indeed permitted you, or do ye invent to attribute to Allah?"

045.005
YUSUFALI: And in the alternation of Night and Day, and the fact that Allah sends down Sustenance from the sky, and revives therewith the earth after its death, and in the change of the winds,- are Signs for those that are wise.

Did you know that ancient Egyptians spoke of iron as -iron from heaven?

Egyptians referred to meteoric iron as iron from heaven to distinguish it from terrestrial iron.

I have lived for 4 years in a place where it rains nearly 6 months a year with heavy rains for some 3-4 months. My college was built on a rocky hill. During these rainy days, we used to see many big yellow frogs/toads wherever there was a small pond. And after a few months into the rainy season, these frogs would disappear. I have never understood where these frogs come from and where they suddenly disappear overnight? (Overnight is rather exaggerating, let's say within a week's time)

Our old house (family house) had a well in it. When my father was young, it rained heavily once and a tortoise/turtle (whatever lives in water) fell on the roof of the house. My father, and uncles picked it up and placed it in the well, and it lived for many years.

Do turtles live in the clouds?
 
Gossamer brings up an interesting topic Matthew 28:19 - Jesus (PBUH) -- had no intent to "spread the message"
'I have not been sent except to the lost sheep of the House of Israel.' (Matthew 15:24)[1]


Many muslims seem to really like this verse, thinking it means we have to follow mohammad- it is said by Jesus before He has completed His mission.

[1]. Hence every one of the famous twelve disciples of Jesus was an Israelite Jew. The one biblical passage where Jesus is supposed to have told his disciples to 'Go and preach unto all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.' (Matthew 28:19), commonly quoted to prove the Gentile mission as well as the Trinity, is not found in any pre-sixteenth century manuscript and is thus considered 'a pious fraud'.

The whole speaking in Greek, is nothing but a subjective opinion to perpetuate a popular fraud -- by the end of another century.. Christianity I have no doubt will mutate yet again to fit the tides...


Greek was the language of the eastern Roman empire found on written remains of the time, Jewish inscriptions from the region, burial inscriptions, Dead Sea Scrolls include some Greek manuscripts etc.

When Jesus spoke to the Centurion in Capernaum, Matthew 8:5-13 was it in Greek, Aramaic, Hebrew? How about with Pontious Pilate, what language was spoken?

For those that believe the Aramaic version is the original and not the Greek:
Matthew 28
19 them) Nwna (& baptize) wdmeaw (the nations) amme (all of them) Nwhlk (disciple) wdmlt (therefore) lykh (go you) wlz
(of Holiness) asdwqd (& The Spirit) axwrw (& The Son) arbw (The Father) aba (in the Name of) Msb

It is interesting to note that early church fathers referenced this very verse in their writings- Jesus said it in the following way:

"Go ye and make disciples of all the nations in my name, teaching them to observe all things, whatsoever I commanded you."

I find it interesting that Jesus had the power to say baptize all nations in His name and not GOD's?!
 
^There are no waterspouts there. And my native town is far from sea.
Anyway, does it not prove that Allah does sends down things from the sky?
If science is unable to explain it, or finds it rather amusing, then that's because of the limits of scientific experiments that man can carry out. Allah SubHanahu waTa'ala is capable of sending down from the sky whatever He wants.

Edit: I think I misunderstood your doubt.

O rLy?! I find it interesting that Jesus saidI can of mine own self do nothing!"

Either your verse is misinterpreted or it is false! Let's not forget Jesus being sent "to the lost sheep of the House of Israel" and the instances of him and the disciples forbidding preaching to the gentiles!
