313. Prediction in the Quran about the victory of Romans.

At the time when Prophet Muhammad was in Makkah, there were two empires in the world, one was the Roman Empire of the Christians, and the other the Persian Empire by the fire worshippers.

During the period of Prophet Muhammad a battle broke out between the two, and the Romans were defeated. The enemies of Prophet Muhammad celebrated the defeat.

This was because the enemies of the prophet in Makkah, believed Prophet Muhammad would be overwhelmed by them as was done in the case of the Romans who claimed to have possessed a scripture like the Muslims.

It was at this juncture the verses (30:2, 3, 4.) of the Quran were revealed predicting the victory of Romans over the Persians in a few years time.

This prediction came to be true at the time of Prophet Muhammad itself proving the Quran to be the “Word of God’.
