In Islam, miracles are considered to be a manifestation of the power of Allah, and are viewed as a sign of the truth of the Prophets and their message. According to Islamic belief, miracles are a special act of divine intervention that go beyond the natural order of things, and are used by Allah to support and reinforce the Prophets' message to their people.

Islamic scholars believe that miracles serve to affirm the truth of the message of the Prophets, and to demonstrate the power of Allah. They are seen as a means to inspire faith in people and to help them recognize the existence and oneness of Allah. At the same time, however, miracles are not seen as the only proof of the truth of Islam or the Prophets' message.

The Qur'an mentions many miracles performed by the Prophets, including the splitting of the sea by Moses, the healing of the blind and the leper by Jesus, and the speaking of the infant Jesus in defense of his mother Mary. These miracles are considered to be a testimony to the truth of their message and a proof of their prophethood.
