Catholics haven’t fully cornered the market on seeing the holy in the mundane. Seems a Muslim woman in Sweden said recently that she found a message from Allah in a rotting mango.
As the two halves of [Rubina] Sheikh’s freshly sliced mango fell away from her knife last Saturday, she discovered what she says is a sign from God.
“When I sliced the mango in two, ‘Allah’ was written in one half and ‘Muhammad’ in the other. It’s a miracle, a sign from Allah,” said Sheikh to the Metro newspaper.
The practicing Muslim is convinced that the black lines emanating through the fruit form characters in Arabic which spell the holy words.
And local Muslims have been streaming in to see the miracle for themselves.
Read it here in the English-language Swedish paper The Local; if you read Swedish, find it in Metro.
