This is the miracle of our Islam religion and the proof of it. Our prophet Muhammad (PBUH) who did not have knowledge about 1500 years ago said to a person who asked about his weak mind.
Imam Sadiq (رح) narrates from his ancestors: "A Bedouin man came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and said: O Messenger of God! I had a good memory, but now I am forgetful and have poor memory, what should I do? He said: Maybe you were used to napping(Qailola= A napping in the midle day or at the afternoon)? vocal. He said: And now you have left it? He said: Yes, the Prophet said: Repeat the same task (sleeping or napping) until, God willing, your memory will return.
So who aware Muhammad (PBUH) about this scientific issue? Indeed!! Allah (S.W) who is the creater of all universe. And has unlimited high knowledge.
