Also he says : the type of lightning NASA is researching occurs within clouds, invisible to the naked eye by day. To properly monitor this type of lightning takes special equipment like NASA's Lightning Imaging Sensor, The sensor tracks worldwide lightning strikes and their relationship to storm centers.
This hadith is a clear evidence that prophet Mohamed peace be upon him is sincere and he is a prophet from Allah Almighty. Also the hadith preceded all scientific
