When the final message of guidance in its perfect consolidation was to be given to man with his intellect developed to the extent necessary to understand the right and the wrong without any difficulty, and when man had to be given the individual responsibility after receiving the final guidance, there was no necessity to force the conscience or the intellect in man to accept anything blindly, merely guided by the manifestations of miraculous events.
When the heaven's decree of ' No compulsion in faith' ' None shall bear the burden of the other'-'Every atom of goodness shall have its return and every atom of evil shall be punished'- had to be announced, there was neither the necessity to show any miracles nor there was any meaning in forcing the truth on man when man had to be tried with the responsibility of the individual choice of the right course.
The Biggest Miracles of the Holy Prophets THE EXPLANATION REGARDING the meaning of a miracle, and its significance given above, does not mean that the Holy Prophet or the Imams of His Holy House did not show any miracles to their people. The miracles shown by the previous prophets ended with them and remained only in the scriptures, but the miracles of the Holy Prophet had been of various kinds. Some of his miracles were timely as those of the previous apostles- viz.
The dead, dried and the rotten tree getting evergreen by his touch. The coming of the date palm to him and its returning to its original position, by his command. His foretelling the fate of the Benedict against Abu Taleb, hung in the Ka'ba, and the innumerable other similar events. Some were those which continued until his stay on earth viz. 1.The sweet fragrance of his body which every approacher to him felt. 2. His possessing a shadowless body. 3.
His belt being taken out of his waiste, without being untied or loosened, passing through his body. 4. His seeming taller than the tallest one when walking besides him. 5. His prophecies, besides the revelations from the Lord. 6.
His having no education under any mortal, and yet being the fountainhead of knowledge to be called the 'City of Knowledge.' And the greatest and the ever- current or the everlasting miracle of his, is the Holy Qur'an with its ever- current challenge to the world as a whole, to bring a chapter, or a few verses of its kind, which humanity till now could not do, nor would it do until the end of the world.
