I don't care about hadiths. They can be made to say anything (like al masjid al aqsa being in Jerusalem).
Please show me where it says Mohamed preformed miracles in the Qur'an. Thanks.

There are many places. An obvious place is Surah Moon (Qamar).
However, I can do more than that. I can show his family are shown to be ones to perform such signs as well.
In Surah Anbiya (Prophets) this is what it states:
مَا يَأْتِيهِمْ مِنْ ذِكْرٍ مِنْ رَبِّهِمْ مُحْدَثٍ إِلَّا اسْتَمَعُوهُ وَهُمْ يَلْعَبُونَ | There does not come to them any new reminder from their Lord but they listen to it as they play around, | Al-Anbiyaa : 2
لَاهِيَةً قُلُوبُهُمْ ۗ وَأَسَرُّوا النَّجْوَى الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا هَلْ هَٰذَا إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِثْلُكُمْ ۖ أَفَتَأْتُونَ السِّحْرَ وَأَنْتُمْ تُبْصِرُونَ | their hearts set on diversions. The wrongdoers secretly whispered together, [saying], ‘Is this [man] not a human being like yourselves? Will you give in to magic with open eyes?’ | Al-Anbiyaa : 3
Magic means the miracles are a work of sorcery as Moses (a) is shown to be accused of the same.
It continues:
قَالَ رَبِّي يَعْلَمُ الْقَوْلَ فِي السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ ۖ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ | He said, ‘My Lord knows every word [spoken] in the sky and on the earth, and He is the All-hearing, the All-knowing.’ | Al-Anbiyaa : 4
بَلْ قَالُوا أَضْغَاثُ أَحْلَامٍ بَلِ افْتَرَاهُ بَلْ هُوَ شَاعِرٌ فَلْيَأْتِنَا بِآيَةٍ كَمَا أُرْسِلَ الْأَوَّلُونَ | Rather they said, ‘[They are] muddled dreams!’ ‘Indeed, he has fabricated it!’ ‘Indeed, he is a poet!’ ‘Let him bring us a sign, like those sent to the previous ones.’ | Al-Anbiyaa : 5
This shows they moved the goal posts, that the accusation of sorcery (in verse 21:3) came after they first said let him bring a sign like those sent to previous people.
It continues in this context to say, many towns did the same as them, demands such things, but turn aside when shown, and so the question is will they believe, and it's probably they will act the same:
مَا آمَنَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ مِنْ قَرْيَةٍ أَهْلَكْنَاهَا ۖ أَفَهُمْ يُؤْمِنُونَ | No town that We destroyed before them believed. Will these then have faith? | Al-Anbiyaa : 6
Then in this context, it says:
وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا قَبْلَكَ إِلَّا رِجَالًا نُوحِي إِلَيْهِمْ ۖ فَاسْأَلُوا أَهْلَ الذِّكْرِ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ | And we did not send before you except as men to whom We revealed so/therefore ask the family of the reminder if you do not know. | Al-Anbiyaa : 7
The reminder in Surah Anbiya context is the Quran and in some places in Quran, it refers to living reminder Mohammad (s) such as:
أَعَدَّ اللَّهُ لَهُمْ عَذَابًا شَدِيدًا ۖ فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ يَا أُولِي الْأَلْبَابِ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا ۚ قَدْ أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ إِلَيْكُمْ ذِكْرًا | Allah has prepared for them a severe punishment. So be wary of Allah, O you who possess intellect and have faith! Allah has already sent down/revealed to you a reminder, | At-Talaaq : 10
رَسُولًا يَتْلُو عَلَيْكُمْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ مُبَيِّنَاتٍ لِيُخْرِجَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ مِنَ الظُّلُمَاتِ إِلَى النُّورِ ۚ وَمَنْ يُؤْمِنْ بِاللَّهِ وَيَعْمَلْ صَالِحًا يُدْخِلْهُ جَنَّاتٍ تَجْرِي مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْأَنْهَارُ خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا أَبَدًا ۖ قَدْ أَحْسَنَ اللَّهُ لَهُ رِزْقًا |A messenger reciting to you the manifest signs of Allah that He may bring out those who have faith and do righteous deeds from darkness into light. And whoever has faith in Allah and does righteous deeds, He shall admit him into gardens with streams running in them, to remain in them forever. Allah has certainly granted him an excellent provision. | At-Talaaq : 11
The context is showing "Ahlul-Thikr" just like past men sent, can perform such miracles, so go ahead and ask them for such signs if one does not know.
There are many more places of Mohammad (s) such as:
وَأَقْسَمُوا بِاللَّهِ جَهْدَ أَيْمَانِهِمْ لَئِنْ جَاءَتْهُمْ آيَةٌ لَيُؤْمِنُنَّ بِهَا ۚ قُلْ إِنَّمَا الْآيَاتُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ ۖ وَمَا يُشْعِرُكُمْ أَنَّهَا إِذَا جَاءَتْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ | They swear by Allah with solemn oaths that were a sign to come to them they would surely believe in it. Say, ‘These signs are only with Allah,’ and what will bring home to you that they will not believe if they came? | Al-An'aam : 109
وَنُقَلِّبُ أَفْئِدَتَهُمْ وَأَبْصَارَهُمْ كَمَا لَمْ يُؤْمِنُوا بِهِ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ وَنَذَرُهُمْ فِي طُغْيَانِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ | We transform their hearts and their visions as they did not believe in it the first time, and We leave them bewildered in their rebellion. | Al-An'aam : 110
This shows, sending more signs become useless since they reject such signs already.
And continues to show:
وَلَوْ أَنَّنَا نَزَّلْنَا إِلَيْهِمُ الْمَلَائِكَةَ وَكَلَّمَهُمُ الْمَوْتَىٰ وَحَشَرْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ قُبُلًا مَا كَانُوا لِيُؤْمِنُوا إِلَّا أَنْ يَشَاءَ اللَّهُ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ يَجْهَلُونَ | Even if We had sent down angels to them, and the dead had spoken to them, and We had gathered before them all things manifestly, they would [still] not believe unless Allah wished. But most of them are ignorant. | Al-An'aam : 111
Also, in Surah Qamar where moon split is talking, it says this:
وَإِنْ يَرَوْا آيَةً يُعْرِضُوا وَيَقُولُوا سِحْرٌ مُسْتَمِرٌّ | If they see a sign, they turn away, and say, ‘An incessant magic!’ | Al-Qamar : 2
Then gives examples of past nations rejecting such signs as well.
And the accusation is always there:
كَذَٰلِكَ مَا أَتَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ مِنْ رَسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُوا سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ | So it was that there did not come any apostle to those who were before them but they said, ‘a sorcerer or possessed | Adh-Dhaariyat : 52
أَتَوَاصَوْا بِهِ ۚ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ | Did they enjoin by this? Rather, they were a rebellious lot. | Adh-Dhaariyat : 53
And so the accusation of Mohammad (s) being a sorcerer or possessed, is all in context of signs. Those in past including Moses (a) was accused as such a long with his brother Aaron (a):
فَلَمَّا جَاءَهُمُ الْحَقُّ مِنْ عِنْدِنَا قَالُوا لَوْلَا أُوتِيَ مِثْلَ مَا أُوتِيَ مُوسَىٰ ۚ أَوَلَمْ يَكْفُرُوا بِمَا أُوتِيَ مُوسَىٰ مِنْ قَبْلُ ۖ قَالُوا سِحْرَانِ تَظَاهَرَا وَقَالُوا إِنَّا بِكُلٍّ كَافِرُونَ | But when there came to them the truth from Us, they said, ‘Why has he not been given the like of what Moses was given?’ Did they not disbelieve what Moses was given before, and said, ‘Two magicians abetting each other,’ and said, ‘Indeed we disbelieve both of them’? | Al-Qasas : 48
It is saying the by rejecting Mohammad (s) and Ali (a), they are disbelieving in what was given to Moses (a) as well. And this is similar to God's words:
وَلَقَدْ أَرَيْنَاهُ آيَاتِنَا كُلَّهَا فَكَذَّبَ وَأَبَىٰ | Certainly We showed him all Our signs. But he denied [them] and refused [to believe them]. | Taa-Haa : 56
That means all such signs, whether Ibrahim (a) in the fire or different, were all rejected by Pharoah when he rejected Musa (a).
وَجَحَدُوا بِهَا وَاسْتَيْقَنَتْهَا أَنْفُسُهُمْ ظُلْمًا وَعُلُوًّا ۚ فَانْظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُفْسِدِينَ | The denied by it though their souls were certain unjustly and arrogantly so observe how the fate of the agents of corruption was! | An-Naml : 14
And such verses are not simply about the past per Quran, but rather:
وَلَقَدْ أَنْزَلْنَا إِلَيْكُمْ آيَاتٍ مُبَيِّنَاتٍ وَمَثَلًا مِنَ الَّذِينَ خَلَوْا مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ وَمَوْعِظَةً لِلْمُتَّقِينَ | Certainly We have sent down to you manifest signs and an example those who passed before you, and an advice for the Godwary. | An-Noor : 34
وَكُلًّا نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ أَنْبَاءِ الرُّسُلِ مَا نُثَبِّتُ بِهِ فُؤَادَكَ ۚ وَجَاءَكَ فِي هَٰذِهِ الْحَقُّ وَمَوْعِظَةٌ وَذِكْرَىٰ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ | Whatever We relate to you of the accounts of the Messengers are those by which We strengthen your heart, and there has come to you in this [surah] the truth and an advice and admonition for the faithful. | Hud : 120
And said:
إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَسْتَحْيِي أَنْ يَضْرِبَ مَثَلًا مَا بَعُوضَةً فَمَا فَوْقَهَا ۚ فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَبِّهِمْ ۖ وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فَيَقُولُونَ مَاذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِهَٰذَا مَثَلًا ۘ يُضِلُّ بِهِ كَثِيرًا وَيَهْدِي بِهِ كَثِيرًا ۚ وَمَا يُضِلُّ بِهِ إِلَّا الْفَاسِقِينَ | Indeed Allah is not ashamed to draw a parable/example/similitude whether it is that of a gnat or something above it. As for those who have faith, they know it is the truth from their Lord; and as for the faithless, they say, ‘What did Allah mean by this parable/example/similitude?’ Thereby He leads many astray, and thereby He guides many; and He leads no one astray thereby except the transgressors | Al-Baqara : 26
Therefore only transgressors are misguided by such examples in thinking it applies to the past with no warning to the present or future.
Also:
وَيَقُولُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَوْلَا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ آيَةٌ مِنْ رَبِّهِ ۗ إِنَّمَا أَنْتَ مُنْذِرٌ ۖ وَلِكُلِّ قَوْمٍ هَادٍ | And the disbelievers say, ‘Why has not some sign been send down regarding him from his Lord?’ You are only a warner while for every people is a guide. | Ar-Ra'd : 7
This shows there is for every people a guide who can perform such miracles and signs but ultimately it's up to God to open the heart to accept such guidance and this is why it says "You are only a warner" (to such people) "while for every people is a guide".
If Mohammad (s) was a fake Prophet, he would not emphasize on miracles through being such signs in the past, because he would not be able to perform them himself.
But Quran shows a lot of emphasis and a lot of emphasis that Mohammad (s) is being accused of magic or possession due to such signs. Why put himself in that spot and then people test him and he can't perform? Why lie about it or emphasize on the past with such signs?
Really think about it.
