Thousands of Muslims have been traveling to a town in southern Russia hoping to see verses from Islam’s holy book appear on the skin of a baby.

The Palestine Telegraph reports that sayings from the Koran are said to appear on nine-month-old Ali Yakubov’s back, arms, legs and stomach before apparently fading away and being replaced with new sayings. Doctors deny that the marks are from someone writing on the child’s skin.

Twitter users are fascinated by the miracle baby, but some think it could be a hoax.
