Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,

As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh. (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)

One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

Respected Sir,

I would like to request you to kindly answer the below allegation .. so that I could tell the truth to Christian brothers working in my company.

Jazzakalla Khair

Hello Everyone,

You have to read this news from a Muslim country...

Muslim man in Egypt killed his wife and then buried her with their infant baby and 8-year old daughter. The girls were buried alive!

He then reported to the police that an uncle killed the kids. 15 days later, another family member died. When they went to bury him, they found the two little girls under the sand - ALIVE!

The country is outraged over the incident, and the man will be executed. The older girl was asked how she had survived.

"A man wearing shiny white clothes, with bleeding wounds in his hands, came every day to feed us. He woke up my mom so she could nurse my sister," she said.

She was interviewed on Egyptian national TV, by a veiled Muslim woman news anchor. She said on public TV, "This was none other than Jesus, because nobody else does things like this!"

Muslims believe Isa (Jesus) would do this, but the wounds mean He really was crucified, and it's clear also that He is alive! However, it's also clear that the child could not make up a story like this, and there is no way these children could have survived without a true miracle. Muslim leaders are going to have a hard time to figure out what to do with this, and the popularity of the Passion movie doesn't help!

With Egypt at the centre of the media and education in the Middle East , you can be sure this story will spread. Christ is still turning the world upside down!

Please let this story be shared, because the Lord says :

"I will bless the person who puts his trust in me."

Jeremiah 17:7

Let this story be shared.

Answer:

Fake story miracle of Christ

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

Respected brother in Islam, this e-rumor has been circulated on the internet from as far back as June-2004, and there is absolutely nothing to substantiate this contrived and fabricated incident.

There are absolutely no names mentioned in the story, nor are there any details given regarding when and where the alleged incident took place, nor is the name of the ‘veiled Muslim woman News Anchor’ mentioned, nor is the date or the name of the Television Channel where this supposed news was reported mentioned!!! There just aren’t enough facts to determine whether the alleged incident is true….on the contrary it has all the evidence of being an absolutely fabricated story!

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

Burhan
