The word “Qamar” means “Moon,” and the word “Moon” appears in the first verse of Surat al-Qamar.
There are 1390 verses from that verse to the end of the Qur’an.
THE DATE OF THE LUNAR LANDING
The year 1390 in the Islamic calendar corresponds to 1969 AD, the date of the lunar landings .
This, one of the greatest landmarks in human history, was indicated 14 centuries beforehand. (Allah knows the truth.)

In addition, the word “inshakka,” meaning “split,” is used in this verse.
The word is derived from the root “shakka,” meaning “to plow, dig up, to turn the soil...” In the same way, the Apollo 11 spacecraft that went to the Moon also took specimens of lunar dust back to Earth.
In that sense, the term “the Moon has split” is consistent with developments in the present day.

A number of calculations can be made from this basis.
These are referred to as numerological (abjad) calculations or "hisab al-jumal."239
Muslims who took advantage of the fact that every letter of the alphabet represents a number have used this in a number of fields.
Ilm'ul Jafr is one of these.

The Hour [has drawn near] and the moon has split.
Hijri: 1390, Gregorian: 1969In 1969, American astronauts carried outresearch on the Moon, dug the soil upwith various pieces of equipment, split itand carried specimens back to Earth.

We must, however, make it clear that the splitting of the Moon is of course one of the miracles given to our Prophet (saas) by Allah.
This miracle is revealed thus in a hadith:The people of Mecca asked Allah's Apostle to show
them a miracle.So he showed them the moon split in two halves
between which they saw the Hiram' mountain. (Sahih Bukhari)
THE DATE OF THE LUNAR LANDING
The above miracle is the splitting of the Moon revealed in the verse.
However, since the Qur'an is a Book that addresses all times, one may think of this verse as referring to the exploration of the Moon in our own day. (Allah knows best.)
