Islamic cultures have reports of miracles where words, rather than images, appear. This corresponds to their text based faith. Various words from the Quran are found in pictures of clouds, in eggplant seeds, in the segments of a pomegranite ... etc.
Iranians like a good miracle story, and they had a WEEPING TREE. Like a weeping icon, in the Orthodox world. Believers said it wept on significant holy days.
Interesting info!
