The answer

One should avoid entering suspicious websites if they do not possess sufficient knowledge to refute misconceptions. It is imperative to draw atheists to fundamental matters of faith and introduce them to God, for knowing God facilitates believing His revelations and His law. As for indulging their demands, it is futile, as their aim is to cast doubt. Their predecessors, the disbelievers, also asked for similar signs yet did not believe after witnessing them, as occurred with the splitting of the moon. Allah has indeed forbidden the earth to consume the bodies of the prophets, and this is not strange for the power of Allah.
