Events foretold in the Qur’an is the victory of the Romans over the Persians within three to nine years after the Romans were defeated by the Persians. Allah SWT said in the Qur’an:
“The Romans have been defeated in the nearest land (to the Arabian Peninsula), and they, after their defeat, will be victories within bedd’ (three to nine) years…) (Qur’an, 30:2-4”
The verses in the Qur’an that mention future events which later come to pass. Let us see what history tells us about these wars.
A book entitled History of the Byzantine State says that the Roman army was badly defeated at Antioch in 613, and as a result, the Persians swiftly pushed forward on all fronts. At that time, it was hard to imagine that the Romans would defeat the Persians, but the Qur’an foretold that the Romans would be victorious within three to nine years. In 622, nine years after the Romans’s defeat, the two forces (Romans and Persians) met on Armenian soil, and the result was decisive victory of the Romans over the Persians, was fulfilled just as Allah SWT has said in the Qur’an.
There are also many other verses in the Qur’an and sayings of Muhammad
that mention future events which later came to pass.
