Oh wait, "wasn't just muslims" I screwed up.

just because i see it as a miracle does not mean this miracle is subject to worship.
I feel that this miracle will help people realise the divinity of the Qur'an, which I feel is much needed in this century.
I am not saying this is how the world always is shaped, because there IS continental drift.
Its just that in the HERE and NOW, this provides me with ever more certainty of faith

YUSUFALI None of Our revelations do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, but We substitute something better or similar Knowest thou not that Allah Hath power over all things?I agree. Signs are for the present. 20 million years back or in the future is irrelevant. But the map has little resemblance.

Yet another proof of existence of Allah. bravo

so what, god just left out the other names that god might go by in other languages and solely left the continents in the shape of the word allah? come on
it's a total stretch to even say the shapes are there in the first place
are you using islands and archipelagos as diacritics? P

This is hardly a miracle, and I doubt this will make people believe in the Quran. In fact, I think it'll make people move further away from the Quran because they will think that this forced "miracle" is the best the Quran has, when this is not the case.

I invented gravity, I decide which way the map goes. rotfl
Really, there are better signs than a subjective map.

Peace,
Why you ridicule this person, let him believe what he wants to believe. He has seen it and maybe you cannot see it, so what's the problem?

The problem is that "minor signs" - photoshopped images of cucumbers with "allah" written in flesh, jinn as plastic toys, etc, distract from the real thing which is all around us. It also ridicules Allah himself, as if the God needed to paste his signs in such a subjective way that very few people will percieve, by having it bend to their will. Let's concentrate on real signs. The Sunni world tends to focus on minor "miracles" - Zamzam curing cancer for instance, and this is similar. The placebo effect is the work of satan, at least here.

Peace,
Yeah i can agree about that and it not impress me at all that people find the name of Allah on a tomato. But I was just disliked over how some members often choose to go on ridicule and mock instead of just pointing it out clearly from the beginning as you now have done for me.
Now I accept your understanding but before it was just mocking his understanding.
Well peace
