THE MIRACLES OF ISLAM
KALMA-E-TAYYEBA WRITTEN INSIDE THE TOMATO
|
According to a reporter from the
Express newspaper, UK, they were calling it the Miracle Tomato of Huddersfield.
For when a schoolgirl sliced it in half she found written inside what thousands
believe to be a message from God. Moslem Shasta Aslam 14, was astounded to see
the words, spelled out in Arabic, "There is only one God" and
"Mohammed is the messenger" in the veins of the each segment.
Then more than 50 worshippers a
day were making a pilgrimage from all over Britain to see the wonderful tomato.
And the shop which sold it has been doing roaring trade in the fruit since the
find on that Sunday afternoon. Shasta made the discovery as she helped her grand
parents prepare a salad at their terraced home in Lockwood, Huddersfield.
She paid about 60 pence for a bag
of tomatoes on a trip to a store across the road with her cousin, 14-year-old
Jasmine Saleem. When Shasta returned she cut up the first two tomatoes into
small pieces. But she took a third from the brown paper bag, something made her
stop. She turned to her grandfather Noor Mohammed, 68 and asked: "Which way
shall I cut the tomato, granddad?"
He told her to slice it top to bottom. If she had chopped it up like the others the message would have been lost. Shasta, a pupil at Salendine Nook High School, said yesterday: "God made me buy that tomato. These words are a message from God. It's a miracle."

Shasta's mother Shamim Javed,
said: "She keeps up her prayers and goes down to the mosque as often as she
can God has sent us all a sign." She added "You hear about these
things in foreign countries but never here in Britain - let alone Huddersfield!
It was an incredible twist of fate that the tomato ended up with Shasta.
"Someone else could easily have sliced the tomato the other way round, or
even eaten without noticing the message inside."
Shasta's grandfather has been
greeting hundreds of worshippers from across the country at his home. He kept
the tomato on a plate in his fridge hoping to preserve it as long as possible.
"Nearly 200 people had come from as far away as Manchester, Birmingham and
London to see it," he said. "We are expecting a lot more people from
further afield.
"Shasta comes to see us
almost every day after saying prayers at the mosque. She is always helping us
out." Shopkeeper Shahida Parveera, who works at Younas Foodstore across the
road, has been selling out of tomatoes every day since the discovery. "We
are thinking of opening a tomato trade," he said.
Last year hundreds of Asians
flocked to the home of a man in Bolton who believed he had received a message
from Allah in an Aubergine. Factory worker Salim Patel sliced one open and saw
that the seeds spelled out the name of the Moslem deity.
KALMA-E-TAYYEBA WRITTEN ON THE STONE
 |
On 19 June 1999 Mr L. Storey from
London, England attended a Transmission Meditation workshop led by Benjamin Crème
in London. The following day he discovered a stone with Arabic writing on it, on
a pile of clothes in his bedroom. It took him a while finds someone to read it
for him, when he did he was amazed to hear it read: "I bear witness there
is only one God, and I bear witness Mohammed was his Prophet."
(Benjamin Crème's master
confirms that the stone was placed on the clothes by the Master Jesus.)
