Yeah, the Qur'an has prophecies in it. For instance, in S. 30.3, it is predicted that the recently defeated Roman Empire will secure a victory. And some feel, for instance that 41.20 (their skins will be a witness against them) is a prophecy of fingerprinting criminals. Or that 17.104 is a prediction that someday the Jews will once again possess the land of Israel.

Does the Qur'an predict the future?

So I was arguing with a friend about religion and the argument that the Quran predicts the future was brought up. I myself am not religious and didn't quite know how to answer to this because in hadith (and the Quran) for example, we're told to dip a fly in soup or tea if it falls in and continue drinking and recently, it's been found that a fly's wings do have healing properties. So I didn't know how to respond to a question like that. I just wanted to know truthfully and every website I've tried is biased towards the Muslim side, which was frustrating.
