One example of the events foretold in the Quran is
the victory of the Romans over the Persians within three to nine years after the
Romans were defeated by the Persians. God has said in the Quran:
The Romans have been defeated in the nearest land (to the Arabian Peninsula), and they, after their defeat, will be victorious within bedd’ (three to nine) years.... (Quran, 30:2-4)
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.1
At that time, it was hard to imagine that the Romans would defeat the Persians,
but the Quran foretold that the Romans would be victorious within three to nine
years. In 622, nine years after the Romans’ defeat, the two forces
(Romans and Persians) met on Armenian soil, and the result was the decisive
victory of the Romans over the Persians, for the first time after the Romans’
defeat in 613.2
The
prophecy was fulfilled just as God has said in the Quran.
There are also many other verses in the Quran and
sayings of the Prophet Muhammad
that mention future events which later came to pass.Source Islam Guide
