<b>Is there any explanation to this case according to Islam? </b>
Quote:LUCKNOW: A 14-year-old Dalit boy, born and brought up in a remote village of western Uttar Pradesh, has suddenly turned angrez . Rajesh, without any evident help, <b>has started speaking fluently in English and does so with a proper American drawl. And that’s not all: He seems to have forgotten how to speak Hindi.</b>
Wonders do not cease with this: His knowledge of physics and mathematics has left engineering students baffled. Having already penned three books, Rajesh is now looking forward to some research work.
All of this may sound like a Bollywood script on one of its favourite themes, <b>reincarnation</b>. However, Rajesh, a resident of a nondescript village 40 km from Saharanpur, refuses to call it so.
In his words: "There is no concept of reincarnation. It is just that memory can’t be destroyed till there are sound waves in the world."
And this is the area of science that interests Rajesh the most. "He has already written three documents, one on memory, the other on sociology and the third on liberalisation," said an excited Shishu Pal Singh Verma, principal of Willian Jefferson Clinton Science and Technology Centre, where Rajesh was enrolled last year.
"I did not take him seriously for a few months but on Republic Day, while the students were reciting poetry before the entire college, Rajesh took the mike and addressed the gathering in fluent English. This left us almost shell-shocked," says Shishu Pal.
Rajesh’s mother Omkali and 16-year-old brother Kaluwa are daily wage labourers who earn just enough to manage two square meals a day. His father Sompal is mentally-challenged. Asked how and when these changes came into Rajesh, Omkali said that it happened almost a year ago when Rajesh was helping Kaluwa erect a wall.
"Every time the brothers brought the wall up to two feet, their father would smash it. Irritated, Rajesh threw a brick at him who was hit in the head and began to bleed.”
This left Rajesh dumbfounded. "For the next three months, he did not utter a single word. When he did, it was not in Hindi," said Jamal, a resident of Saharanpur.

Actually something like this happened to one of my Uncle's students. My Uncle teaches Islam here in my country.
One of his students. an english speaker, just started speaking some other language, I think they eventually found out that it was belgian or bulgarian or something like that....
but what they found out was, that this was actually a jinn possession and nothing else, and proper action was taken.
I'm not saying this is the case with the boy. But, who knows??

Interesting but not very surprising. English is the official language of India. If you ever watch a bollywood film you will see half of the sentences are english. Hence it is not surprising at all that the boy can speak english.
Interestingly the article first says he penned 3 "books" and then later on it says 3 "documents". So which is it because there is a difference.
This seems like an overhyped hoax to me.

Jazakum Allahu Khiran for your inputs. but finally, this boy's truth has been revealed. <b>ZEE NEWS TV</b> discovered the reality behind his story. They’ve found out the followings:
1- The boy can still understand and talk in Hindi
2- The boy admitted that he developed the accent and mannerisms by constantly watching Hollywood movies on TV, a few years back he had taken up learning English as a "challenge" after having been insulted by his English teacher.
3- His ability to speak English is merely imitative, that he spoke the language with grammatical errors; and that he could not fully comprehend questions asked in English.
And so in conclusion:
a) The boy's ability to talk English with a US accent is the result of extraordinary skills of imitation and mimicry that he happens to posses. He acquired this ability merely by repeatedly watching Hollywood movies, and through hard practice. This is indeed an amazing ability, but this doesn’t have anything to do with being reincarnated.
B) There is no evidence at all that the boy was "recalling" events from the memory of his earlier birth as a US scientist, even he was not able to mention the name of that scientist!!
c) This incident does not in any way prove the theory of reincarnation but it tells us that there will always be human beings who possess extraordinary ability which God Almighty bestowed upon them.

I think in this is lessons for us all...
if u believe in god.... whether you be muslim or hindu or christian or whatever... and you need these "miracles" to validate your faith, then something is indeed wrong with your faith... your faith is flawed...
and i say this firstly to all the muslims out there...
subhanallah...

I totally agree with you, miracles are not the test at all. We believe that the Dajjal will show much more powerful miracles when he comes, but we are told not to follow him no matter what.
May Allah keep us always on His straight path, and save us from the trials of the Dajjal. Ameen.

Just like I thought. Alhamdulillah as they say Truth will triumph over Falsehood for the very nature of Falsehood is to perish.
These sort of things crop up everyday and muslims should not be swayed by these childish attempts to brainwash people.
We live in a rational age. "Miracles" are actually an essential part of faith. It is the required "Hujjah" from God to convince people of the truth. In the past these miracles were appropriate for the time. The Miracles of musa (as) were appropriate as the people revered magicians. The miracles of Isa(as) were appropriate since people revered medicine and Physicians. The final miracle is the miracle to last all ages and we all possess it in our very hands and that is Al-Quran Al-Kareem. Which ever way you approach it (rationally, literary, scientifically, Prophecies, theologically etc) it will never cease to amaze the inquirer who will have to submit to the "miracle" of this book which will last and last until the day of Reckoning.
