extraordinary acts
"This term literally means 'a sign of honour' and refers to supernatural acts (like walking on water). It is used in conjunction with saints or men of Allah other than the prophets, for whom the word معجزة (mircle) is used."

special gifts from God
Karama also means 'miracle'. But since you already have miracle in the same text, you can use 'special gift or endowment from God' instead.
I suggest also using "Karamat", and the explanation I've given between parentheses.

حسبما أعلم أن الكرامة لا تضاف إلى النبي وإنما المعجزة للنبي والكرامة تضاف للولي وأن كرامة الولي دليل على صدق النبي لأنها لم تكن لتحدث له لولا اتباعه النبي
وإليكم الفرق بين المعجزة والكرامة:
عرّف العلماء المعجزة: بأنها أمر يجريه الله على يدي الأنبياء ويكون على خلاف ما اعتاده الناس من سنن الكون وقوانينه، والغرض منها إثبات صدق نبوتهم، وأنهم رسل من عند الله. كعدم إحراق النار إبراهيم، وتحول عصا موسى إلى حية، وانشقاق القمر للنبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم – وخروج الماء من بين أصابعه .
http://www.islamweb.net/ver2/archive/readArt.php?id=13703
لذا أرجو التحقق من النص الذي تترجمينه مع العلم أن للنبي صلى الله عليه وسلم معجزات عديدة وليس معجزة واحدة كما يقول النص ويرجى الإطلاع على هاذين الرابطين من باب الفائدة
