Halley’s comet passed by our Earth in Hijri 1406, or 1986 AD.
The passage of that comet was no ordinary matter. It was a marvel predicted by Rasulullah (saas) 1,400 years ago.
Before he [Mahdi] comes, a comet will be appearing in the East, giving out illumination before it arrives. (Ibn Hajar al-Haythami, Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi `Alamat al-Mahdi al-Muntazar, p. 53)
Halley’s comet travels from East to West just as our Prophet (saas) said!
The foretelling of the passage of a comet hundreds of years before the event is a miracle of our Prophet (saas); yet you almost never hear of these miracles on TV, in the newspapers or on talk shows because some Islamic scholars never discuss them, but hide them away.
Note this; they are concealing the miracles of Rasulullah (saas).
Our Prophet (saas) provides other details about Halley’s comet:
The rise of that star will occur after the eclipse of the Sun and the Moon. (Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi' 'Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir al-zaman, p. 32)
Halley’s comet was seen after the eclipses of the Moon and Sun in 1981 and 1982, or Hijri 1401-1402.
The way that our Prophet (saas) foretold in such detail an event that would take place 1,400 years after his day is a miracle that should be constantly on people’s lips, and it is deeply dishonest of certain scholars to keep it under wraps.
