The logical relationship between the miracle and the truth of its owner(prophet)  The topic is one of the most historical and Quranic  issues which is the relationship between the miracle and the credibility of its  owner.  Also we will discuss how throwing a stick and changing into a serpent (for example), will denote the trustworthy of its owner(prophet). However some extensive studies havebeen made about the topic some of which will be mentioned. Goodness and badness and it’s different interpretations.Different types of certainty. Allahs “habit”. The exact definition of Miracle based on different schools of thought. Efficient agent of the miracle.  Then once again we will get to the difference between the miracle and ” which is incontrast to the usual of  nature “,  like what ascetics  do.  Finally we will get to the main question of the research, which is the logical relationship between the miracle and the truth of its owner which is theprophet.  The main question of this research however, is to elaborate on how miraclesdenote the trustworthy and credibility of the prophets? By “Proof” or “Persuasively”? We are to prove that its by “proof”,  Taking the attributes of Allah into account, like wisdom and his lack of badness, we will infer that such a person (with such miracle) is trustworthy and he is the prophet. Because based on the different attributes of Allah if such aperson is liar Allah will stop him.  If we do not believe in this, -that the denotation of miracle is by “proof”- we havedenied the proof of one  of the most important and fundamental issues.  As these differences between the theologians are because of their different perspectives on supernatural events, we have proved our claim byelaborating on the premises.  At the last part of this dissertation different views and perspectives of thoughtfuland intellectual ones have been discussed and studied.
