Miracles need to be reconciled as extreme rare and exceptional events with scientific explanations👇 
Miracles constitute one of the most contentious issues in the debates of Religion and Science. Miracles are not as fundamental to some religions as to others, but in their direct connection to the more important issue of divine action in the world, they are essential to address.
It is important to define and delineate the concept of Miracles and the extent of their manifestation:
👉Are miracles “violations of the laws of nature”, or are they simply striking events that may point to God or supernatural agents but are scientifically only improbable?

👉Do miracles occur only at the hands of prophets, or do they also happen with saints and even with ordinary people (today)?
👉Did Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) perform physical miracles? What about those that the Qur’an relates for other prophets (Abraham, Moses, Jesus)?

While early Muslim scholars and theologians considered miracles to be a result of direct action of God to suspend laws of nature, in modern times, several famous Muslim scholars and thinkers have adopted rationalistic or even naturalistic views with respect to miracles.
Naturalistic explanations of miracles may be part of theistic explanations.
