ファラオの遺体保存 | クルアーンの予言
クルアーンはファラオの遺体がしるしとして保存されると約束し、ミイラの発見により確認された。
ご存知でしたか?
クルアーンはファラオが溺れた後「今日われらはあなたの体を救い出す。あなたの後に来る者たちへのしるしとして」(10章92節)と述べました。1881年にラムセス2世のミイラが完璧な状態で発見されました。
فَالْيَوْمَ نُنَجِّيكَ بِبَدَنِكَ لِتَكُونَ لِمَنْ خَلْفَكَ آيَةً
Today We will preserve your body so you may be a sign for those who come after you. And indeed, many among the people are heedless of Our signs.
Quran 10:92
解説
The Quran explicitly promised that Pharaoh's body would be preserved as a 'sign' (āyah) for future generations. Unlike the Bible which does not mention body preservation, the Quran specifically declares this. The discovery of remarkably preserved pharaonic mummies in the 19th-20th centuries fulfills this prophecy. The mummy of Merneptah (often identified as the Exodus Pharaoh) showed evidence consistent with drowning, including salt deposits in the tissues.

Mummy Discoveries
The Royal Mummies Cache was discovered in 1881 at Deir el-Bahari. Among them were Ramesses II, Seti I, and other pharaohs. Merneptah's mummy was found separately in 1898 in the Valley of the Kings.
Forensic Evidence
Modern forensic analysis of pharaonic mummies reveals cause of death and conditions of preservation. Dr. Maurice Bucaille's examination of Merneptah's mummy in 1975 noted salt crystals consistent with seawater exposure.
