01The sign
1400 years ago nobody knew about keraunoparalysis however it was portrayed in the Quran.
Keraunoparalysis is a temporary paralysis caused by lightning strike.
02Scientific evidence
Lightning injury
Lightning strikes can also induce a transient paralysis known as keraunoparalysis. Signs and symptoms of keraunoparalysis include lack of pulse, pallor or cyanosis, and motor and sensory loss in the extremities. However, keraunoparalysis usually resolves within a few hours.
A lightning strike can cause temporary paralysis. This was only known recently, however this was portrayed in the Quran 1400 years before it was discovered.
03Qur'an passage · Quran 51:44-45
فَعَتَوْا عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ الصَّاعِقَةُ وَهُمْ يَنْظُرُونَ ٤٤ فَمَا اسْتَطَاعُوا مِنْ قِيَامٍ وَمَا كَانُوا مُنْتَصِرِينَ ٤٥
But they defied the command of their Lord, so the lightning struck them as they looked on. They could not rise up, nor could they find help.
04Reflection
"They could not rise up" today we know why, this is temporary paralysis from the lightning strike.
