GM Posted May 16, 2006 Read the miracle of a fish which was caught off indian ocean shores with message of "wallahu khairu raziqin" incripted on it. Subhanallah!

Hundreds of Muslims thronged Takaungu Fresh Fish Shop in old Town to have a glimpse of the fish, caught off Vanga Town near Tanzania and brought for sale at Mr Omar Mohammed's shop, who spotted the message as he placed the catch in a refrigerator. Secretary-general of the Council of Imams and Preachers of Kenya Sheikh Mombasa Dor said the message was a reminder from God that we should not forget His teachings. "This has been confirmed as a verse from the Holy Koran in Arabic language. We believe that God brings these kinds of messages in many forms from time to time and that we should not only read the Holy Book, but practise what it says," he said. District commissioner Mohamed Maalim said the message was baffling for its clarity. "It is so clearly spelt and that is why we believe that Allah is sending a message to mankind," he said. Sheikh Dor said they would approach Fort Jesus Museum to preserve the fish. Catholic bishop Boniface Lele however said people did not need extra revelations to know they had strayed from God's teachings. "People need not be reminded to follow the teachings of the God... they should always practise what they read," he said. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
