Miracles are by definition an interruption of the laws of physics. Muslims believe God split the moon and reassembled it just like any other theist who believes in miracles.
How much one knows about space is irrelevant, whatever physical law that governs space can be interrupted by God anyway. Tell your man winter, not me, he's the one who thinks that the miracle of hell is a black hole. Next thing you know he'll be telling us that god's throne has a street address.
I know that you believe that.. just like any other theist who believes in miracles. That's what's so damned funny to me about what all of you believe, and twice as funny whenever any of you gets to babbling about magic book(s)
and science.

Nobody does. OP is being non sensical as usual.

Ibn Taymiyyah reported a scholarly consensus (ijma') on the Earth being round. In other words, all major Muslim scholars of his era understood from the Qur'an and the prophet's sayings that the Earth is indeed round. Ibn Hazm also reported this consensus.
Looks like you don't know what you're talking about.
Oh I could very well be wrong about that. But I’d need to see the specific studies on the consensus of the time. Specifically what does “round” mean? It could mean a sphere, or it could mean a circle. That’s a big difference. I know many modern Christian leaders refer to a verse in the Bible about “the circle of the Earth” as ‘proof’ that biblical writers knew that the earth is a sphere, even though the text blatantly and explicitly says circle, not sphere. So I’d need to see more info on these studies to be convinced.

Atrocities like "executing masses of conquered people" by farting and facesitting them to death:

Then they built skull towers from the skulls of my dead ancestors & yours.
They tortured humanity until people thought it was judgement day.
They just didn't reach Spain, but they gave Eastern Europeans some hot, deadly farts to the death.

..Score.
The Mongols never made it to Spain. Al-Andalus was a major hub of Islamic scholarship and did not disappear even with the Reconquista, as Islamic texts were translated into Latin by the Christians.
Over the centuries into the modern era, Islam has become more anti-intellectual, that's why so few Muslims have won the Noble Prize.
The Islamic nation lost its soul after the defeat against the Mongols; they broke its soul.
That's why I adopted the Quran as the only constitution I follow; and defied any other sources written by Sunni/Shiite Muslims. Their sources are twisted and polluted.

Broke its soul? The Plague during the 14th and 15th centuries killed off between one-third to half-one of the population of Europe, and yet, the medieval universities continued to function. When plague broke out in England in the 17th-century, Isaac Newton left town, went back home, discovered calculus and went back to Cambridge a year to two later only to write the greatest mathematical treatise that the World has ever known, the Principia.

Same source and method as magic book. We've had this conversation too many times for me to take you seriously anymore. That's something you tell yourself about your beliefs, but it's not actually important to your beliefs that it be true.
I'm guessing you also wouldn't consider your religion disproven if it turned out that hells weren't black holes, either...huh......?

So basicly the Mongols operated in the exact same manner as the pre-islamic and islamic caliphate then. Boo-fucking-hoo.
PS, have you a reputable source for what you just asserted?

No Mongol ever built a skull tower from the skulls of my ancestors. My ancestors’ cousins did that.

You can find the original narration of the consensus here :
https://islamqa.info/en/answers/118698/c...h-is-round
Their main justification is the verse:
“He created the heavens and earth for a true purpose; He wraps the night around the day and the day around the night”
[az-Zumar 39:5].
The exegesis goes like this : The equivalent in Arabic of "wrapping around" can't apply to something that is flat, as the verse kind of describes how the Earth appears when looked at from afar, one half of it is roughly covered in sunlight and the remainder in darkness.
