Do miracles such as the Isra and Mi'raj and the People of the Cave have a scientific, materialistic explanation from worldly sciences that we have not yet discovered, or are they from an innate knowledge that differs from the rules of worldly sciences?

A miracle is an extraordinary event that occurs to support prophets and establish proof, and it is not subject to scientific analysis because it happens by the power of Allah the Almighty, such as the emergence of the she-camel from the rock and the splitting of the moon. A Muslim should consider their awareness of miracles as a reason for strengthening their faith and submission to Allah.
