Tampering With the Word of God

The Quran is God’s Final Testament. Hence the divine pledge to keep it perfectly preserved. To assure us of both the divine authorship, and the perfect preservation of the Quran, the Almighty author has rendered the Quran mathematically composed. As proven by the physical evidence in Appendix 1, such mathematical composition is far beyond human capabilities. The slightest violation of God’s Final Testament is destined to stand out in glaring disharmony. A deviation by only 1—one sura, one verse, one word, even one letter—is immediately exposed.

Nineteen years after the Prophet Muhammad’s death, during the reign of Khalifa ‘Uthman, a committee of scribes was appointed to make several copies of the Quran to be dispatched to the new Muslim lands. The copies were to be made from the original Quran which was written by Muhammad’s hand (Appendix 28).

This committee was supervised by ‘Uthman Ibn ‘Affaan, ‘Ali Ibn Abi Taaleb, Zeid Ibn Thaabet, Ubayy Ibn Ka’ab, ‘Abdullah Ibn Al-Zubair, Sa’eed Ibn Al-‘Aas, and ‘Abdul Rahman Ibn Al-Haareth Ibn Heshaam. The Prophet, of course, had written the Quran in its chronological order of revelation (Appendix 23), together with the necessary instructions to place every piece in its proper position. The last sura revealed in Medina was Sura 9. Only Sura 110, a very short sura, was revealed after Sura 9, in Mina.

The committee of scribes finally came to Sura 9, and put it in its proper place. One of the scribes suggested adding a couple of verses to honor the Prophet. The majority of scribes agreed. ‘Ali was outraged. He vehemently maintained that the word of God, written down by the hand of His final prophet, must never be altered.

A superhuman mathematical system pervades the Quran and serves to guard and authenticate every element in it.

Nineteen years after the Prophet’s death, some scribes injected two false verses at the end of Sura 9, the last sura revealed in Medina. The evidence presented in this Appendix incontrovertibly removes these human injections, restores the Quran to its pristine purity, and illustrates a major function of the Quran’s mathematical code, namely, to protect the Quran from the slightest tampering. Thus, the code rejects ONLY the false injections 9:128-129.

Surely, we have revealed this scripture, and surely, we will preserve it. [15:9]

Ali’s protest is documented in many references, but I cite and reproduce here the classic reference AL ITQAAN FEE ‘ULUM AL QURAN by Jalaluddin Al-Suyuty, Al-Azhareyyah Press, Cairo, Egypt, 1318 AH, Page 59.

Translation: ‘Ali was asked: “Why are you staying home?” He said, “Something has been added to the Quran, and I have pledged never to put on my street clothes, except for the prayer, until the Quran is restored.”

The horrendous dimensions of this crime can be realized once we look at the consequences:

1. ‘Uthman was assassinated, and ‘Ali was installed as the fourth Khalifa.
2. A 50-year war erupted between the new Khalifa and his supporters on one side, and the Mohammedan distorters of the Quran on the other side.
3. ‘Ali was martyred, and eventually his family, the prophet Muhammad’s family, except for some women and children, were killed.
4. The disaster culminated in the infamous Battle of Karbala, where ‘Ali’s son, Hussein, and his family were massacred.
5. The Muslims were deprived of the pure, unaltered, Quran for 1400 years.

The distorters of the Quran finally won the war, and the “official” history that came to us represented the victors’ point of view. This apparent victory for God’s enemies was, of course, in accordance with God’s will. In just two decades after the Prophet’s death, the idol worshipers who were defeated by the Prophet in the conquest of Mecca (632 AD) reverted to idolatry. Ironically, this time around their idol was the Prophet himself. Such idol worshipers obviously did not deserve to possess the pure Quran. Hence the blessed martyrdom of the true believers who tried to restore the Quran, and the apparent victory for the distorters of God’s word.

The first peace time ruler after this lengthy and disastrous war was Marwan Ibn Al Hakam (died 65 AH/684 AD). One of the first duties he performed was to destroy the original Quran, the one that was so scrupulously written by the Prophet’s own hand, “fearing it might become the cause of NEW disputes” [see ‘ULUM AL-QURAN, by Ahmad von Denffer, Islamic Foundation, Leicester, United Kingdom, 1983, Page 56]. The question an intelligent person must ask is: “If the original Quran were identical to the Quran in circulation at that time, why did Marwan Ibn Al-Hakam have to destroy it?!”

Upon examining the oldest Islamic references, we realize that the false injections, 9:128-129, were always suspect. For example, we read in Bukhary’s famous Hadith, and Al-Suyuty’s famous Itqaan, that every single verse in the Quran was verified by a multiplicity of witnesses “except Verses 128 and 129 of Sura 9; they were found only with Khuzeimah Ibn Thaabet Al-Ansaary.” When some people questioned this improper exception, someone came up with a Hadith stating that “the testimony of Khuzeimah equals the testimony of two men!!!”

Strangely, the false injections 9:128-129 are labeled in the traditional Quran printings as “Meccan.”

The Title Figure of Sura 9 from a standard Quran, showing that this sura is Medinan, “except for the last two verses; they are Meccan”!!!

How could these ‘Meccan’ verses be found with Khuzeimah, a late ‘Medinan’ Muslim?! How could a Medinan sura contain Meccan verses, when the universal convention has been to label as ‘Medinan’ all revelations after the Prophet’s Hijerah from Mecca??!! Despite these discrepancies, plus many more glaring contradictions associated with Verses 9:128-129, no one dared to question their authenticity. The discovery of the Quran’s mathematical code in 1974, however, ushered in a new era where the authenticity of every element in the Quran is proven (Appendix 1).

As it turns out, the injection of the two false Verses 9:128-129 resulted in:

1. demonstrating the major function of the Quran’s mathematical system, and
2. producing an awesome miracle in its own right, and
3. distinguishing the true believers from the hypocrites (they uphold traditions).

The translation of the two false verses:

“A messenger has come to you from among you who wants no hardship to afflict you, and cares about you, and is compassionate towards the believers, merciful. If they turn away, then say, ‘Sufficient for me is God, there is no god except He. I put my trust in Him. He is the Lord with the great throne.'”

THE PHYSICAL EVIDENCE

[1] The first violation of the Quran’s code by Verses 9:128-129 appeared when the count of the word “God” (Allah) in the Quran was found to be 2699, which is not a multiple of 19, unless we remove one. The count of the word “God” is shown at the bottom of each page in this translation. The total shown at the end of the Quran is 2698, 19×142, because the false injections 9:128-129 have been removed.

[2] The sum of all the verse numbers where the word “God” occurs is 118123, or 19×6217. This total is obtained by adding the numbers of verses wherever the word “God” is found. If the false Verse 9:129 is included, this phenomenon disappears.

[3] As shown at the end of Sura 9 in this translation, the total occurrence of the word “God” to the end of Sura 9 is 1273, 19×67. If the false injections 9:128-129 were included, the total would have become 1274, not a multiple of 19.

[4] The occurrence of the word “God” from the first Quranic initial (“A.L.M.” of 2:1) to the last initial (“N.” of 68:1) totals 2641, or 19×139. Since it is easier to list the suras outside the initialed section of the Quran, Table 1 shows the 57 occurrences of the word “God” in that section. Subtracting 57 from the total occurrence of the word “God” gives us 2698-57 = 2641 = 19×139, from the first initial to the last initial. If the human injections 9:128 and 129 were included, the count of the word “God” in the initialed section would have become 2642, not a multiple of 19.

[5] Sura 9 is an un-initialed sura, and if we look at the 85 un-initialed suras, we find that the word “God” occurs in 57 of these suras, 19×3. The total number of verses in the suras where the word “God” is found is 1045, 19×55. If 9:128-129 were included, the verses containing the word “God” would increase by 1.

[6] The word “God” from the missing Basmalah (Sura 9) to the extra Basmalah (Sura 27) occurs in 513 verses, 19×27, within 19 suras (Table 2). If the false Verses 9:128-129 were included, the number of verses containing the word “God” would have become 514, and this phenomenon would have disappeared.

[7] The word “Elaah” which means “god” occurs in Verses 9:129. The total occurrence of this word in the Quran is 95, 19×5. The inclusion of 9:128-129 causes this word to increase by 1, to 96.

[8] The INDEX TO THE WORDS OF THE QURAN, lists 116 “Rasool” (Messenger) words. One of these words is in 9:128. By removing this false verse, 115 “Rasool” words remain. Another “Rasool” word which must be excluded from counting is in 12:50, since it refers to the “messenger of Pharaoh,” not the messenger of God. Thus, the total occurrence of “Rasool” of God is 114, 19×6.

[9] Another important word that occurs in the false Verses 9:128-129 is the word “Raheem” (Merciful). This word is used in the Quran exclusively as a name of God, and its total count is 114, 19×6, after removing the word “Raheem” of 9:128, which refers to the prophet. According to 7:188, 10:49, and 72:21 the Prophet did not possess any power of mercy.

[10] The INDEX lists 22 occurrences of the word “‘Arsh” (Throne). After removing the false injection 9:129, and the “‘Arsh” of Joseph which occurs in 12:100, and the “‘Arsh” of the Queen of Sheba (27:23), we end up with 19 “‘Arsh” words. This proves that the word “‘Arsh” of 9:129 does not belong in the Quran.

[11] The Quranic command “Qul” (Say) occurs in the Quran 332 times. Also, the word “Qaaloo” (They said) occurs the same number of times, 332. Since the false Verse 9:129 contains the word “Qul” (Say), its inclusion would have destroyed this typical Quranic phenomenon.

[12] The Quran contains 6234 numbered verses and 112 un-numbered verses (Basmalahs). Thus, the total number of verses in the Quran is 6346, 19×334. The false Verses 9:128-129 violate this important criterion of the Quran’s code.

[13] In addition to violating the numbers of words as listed above, 9:128-129 violate the Quran’s mathematical structure. When we add the number of verses in each sura, plus the sum of verse numbers (1 + 2 + 3 + … + n, where n = number of verses), plus the number of each sura, the cumulative total for the whole Quran comes to 346199, or 19x19x959. This phenomenon confirms the authenticity of every verse in the Quran, while excluding 9:128-129. Table 3 is an abbreviated illustration of the calculations of Item 13. This phenomenon is impossible if the false Verses 9:128-129 are included.

[14] When we carry out the same calculations as in Item 13 above, but for the 85 un-initialed suras only, which include Sura 9, the cumulative total is also a multiple of 19. The cumulative total for all un-initialed suras is 156066, or 19×8214. This result depends on the fact that Sura 9 consists of 127 verses, not 129. The cumulative total for all un-initialed suras is 156066, or 19×8214. This result depends on the fact that Sura 9 consists of 127 verses, not 129. The data are shown in Table 4. The false verses would have destroyed this criterion.

[15] By adding the sura numbers of all un-initialed suras (85 suras), plus their number of verses, from the beginning of the Quran to the end of Sura 9 we get 703, 19×37. The detailed data are shown in Table 5. This phenomenon depends on the fact that Sura 9 consists of 127 verses.

[16] By adding the sura number of the un-initialed suras, plus the number of verses, plus the sum of verse numbers from the missing Basmalah (9:1) to the end of the Quran, the grand total comes to 116090, or 19×6110. These data are in Table 6. If Verses 9:128-129 are included, the
number of verses for Sura 9 becomes 129, and the grand total becomes 116349, not a multiple of 19.

[17] When the same calculations of Item 16 are done for all the verses from the missing Basmalah of Sura 9 to the extra Basmalah of Sura 27, the grand total comes to 119966, or 19×6314. This phenomenon would be destroyed, and the total would no longer be divisible by 19, if the number of verses in Sura 9 were 129. Since this phenomenon is also related to the absence of Basmalah from Sura 9, it is explained and the detailed data are given in table form in Appendix 29.

[18] When the same calculations of Items 16 and 17 are carried out from the missing Basmalah (9:1) to the verse where the number 19 is mentioned (74:30), we find that the grand total comes to 207670, or 19×10930 (Table 7). Sura 9 must consist of 127 verses.

[19] Sura 9 consists of 127 verses. The digits of 127 add up to 1 + 2 + 7 = 10. Looking at all the verses whose digits add up to 10, from the missing Basmalah of Sura 9, to the extra Basmalah of Sura 27, the grand total is 2470 (19×130). If Sura 9 consisted of 129 verses, the grand total would be 2472, not a multiple of 19, and this phenomenon would have disappeared. The data are in Table 8.

[20] The falsifiers wanted us to believe that Sura 9 consists of 129 verses. The number 129 ends with the digit “9.” Let us look at the first sura and the last sura whose number of verses ends with the digit “9.” These are Sura 10 and Sura 104. By adding the sura number, plus the number of verses, plus the sum of verse numbers, from Sura 10 to Sura 104, we get a grand total that equals 23655, or 19×1245. The details are shown in Table 9. The inclusion of Sura 9 with the wrong number of verses, 129, would have altered both the sum of verse numbers and the cumulative total—the sum of verse numbers would have become 627 + 129 = 756, and the cumulative total would not be 23655—and the Quran’s code would have been violated (Table 9).

[21] The false injection consisted of Verses 128 and 129 at the end of Sura 9. These numbers contain two 1’s, two 2’s, one 8, and one 9. Counting all the 1’s in all verse numbers in the Quran gives a total of 2546 (19×134), provided the correct number of verses in Sura 9, 127, is used. If 128 and 129 are included, the grand total becomes 2548, not a multiple of 19.

[22] Looking at all the verse numbers in the 85 un-initialed suras and counting all the 1’s, the total count of the digit “1” is 1406, or 19×74. If Sura 9 consisted of 129 verses, we would see two additional 1’s, and the code would be violated.

[23] Counting all the 2’s, 8’s, and 9’s in all the verse numbers of the whole Quran gives a total of 3382, or 19×178. The grand total of all the 1’s, 2’s, 8’s, and 9’s is 2546 + 3382 = 5928, 19×312. Since 128 and 129 contain 6 digits, the inclusion of these human injections causes the total count to be 5928 + 6 = 5934, not a multiple of 19.

[24] The total count of all the digits (1 through 9) in all the verse numbers of the 85 un-initialed suras, including Sura 9 with 127 verses, is 27075, or 19x19x75.

[25] Adding up the digits of the Quran’s suras and verses produces a multiple of 19, provided the correct number of verses for Sura 9, 127, is taken. The total for all sura-number digit sums is 975, and for all verse-count digit sums is 906. The grand total is 975 + 906 = 1881 = 19×99. This would not hold if Sura 9 consisted of 129 verses.

[26] Multiplying (rather than adding) the digit sum of each sura number by the digit sum of its verse count, and totaling across all suras, gives 7771, or 19×409.

[27] Sura 9 is an odd-numbered sura. Carrying out the calculations of Item 26 for odd-numbered suras only: the total for the suras is 513 (19×27), the total for the verses is 437 (19×23), and the grand total is 950 (19×50).

[28] Taking all suras with 127 verses or less (105 such suras), the sum of the sura numbers plus the sum of their verse numbers is 10963, or 19×577. Sura 9 is the only sura with exactly 127 verses in this list. If Sura 9 had 129 verses, it would be excluded, the total would be 10827, and the phenomenon would be violated.

[29] Looking at all odd-numbered suras whose number of verses is also odd (27 such suras, including Sura 9 with 127 verses), the sum of sura numbers plus sum of verse numbers is 2774, 19×146. Using the wrong count of 129 for Sura 9 destroys this.

[30] The correct number of verses in Sura 9, 127, is a prime number. Looking at all suras whose verse count is prime, the digits of the sura numbers add up to 137, the digits of the verse counts add up to 129, and the grand total is 266 = 19×14.

[31] Looking at suras whose number of verses is divisible by 3 and consists of 3 digits, the total of sura numbers is 71 and total number of verses is 765, giving a grand total of 836, or 19×44. If Sura 9 had 129 verses it would have been included, destroying this phenomenon.

[32] If Sura 9 had 129 verses, and we looked at all suras with 129 verses or more (8 such suras with 1577 total verses, 19×83), adding Sura 9’s 129 would make the total 1706, not a multiple of 19.

[33] The numbers 127, 128 and 129 share the digits “1” and “2.” Suras whose verse count contains both digits 1 and 2 sum (sura numbers + verse counts) to 1159, 19×61. Including Sura 9 as 129 verses would make the total 1161, not a multiple of 19.

[34] Sura 9 is a single-digit sura whose verse count contains “1” and “2.” The only other such sura is Sura 5 (120 verses). Together: 120 + 127 = 247 = 19×13. With 129 verses this would be 249, not a multiple of 19.

[35] Suras whose verse count begins with digit “1” (30 such suras) have a sum of verse numbers (1+2+…+n) totaling 126122, or 19×6638. With Sura 9 at 129 verses, the total would be 126379, not a multiple of 19.

[36] Sura 9’s digits (9+1+2+7) add up to 19. Suras where sura-number-plus-verse-count digits add to 19 (10 such suras) total 1216, or 19×64.

[37] (Discovered by Gatut Adisoma of Masjid Tucson.) Suras where the sura digits add to 9 and verse-count digits add to 10 are Suras 9, 45, 54, and 72 (127, 37, 55, 28 verses). Total verses: 247, 19×13.

[38] If Sura 9 had 129 verses, the only other sura whose sura-digits add to 9 and verse-digits add to 12 would be Sura 27, giving 129+93=222, not a multiple of 19.

[39] Suras whose verse count ends in “9” (13 such suras, excluding Sura 9) total 627 verses, 19×33, and sura+verses+sum-of-verse-numbers total 23655, 19×1245.

[40] Odd-numbered suras whose verse count ends in “9”: total of sura number plus verse count is 646, or 19×34. Including Sura 9 at 129 would make it 784, not a multiple of 19.

[41] Suras whose verse count ends in “7” (7 such suras including Sura 9 with 127) have a grand total (sura number + verse count) of 798, 19×42.

[42] Counting occurrences of the digit “7” among the last two verse numbers of every sura in the Quran gives 38, 19×2. If Sura 9’s last verse were 129 instead of 127, the count would be 37, not a multiple of 19.

[43] Assuming Sura 9 has 129 verses, and looking at all suras containing a verse numbered 129 (9 such suras), the sura numbers total 114 (19×6) and the verse-129 numbers total can only reach a multiple of 19 if 2 is deducted — pointing to Sura 9 as the sura with 2 extra verses. 114 + 1161 − 2 = 1273 = 19×67.

[44] Looking at suras containing a verse numbered 128 (same list plus Sura 16, which genuinely has 128 verses), the total is 1410, not a multiple of 19 — unless Sura 9 is removed, giving 1273, 19×67, matching Item 43. This singles out Sura 9 as containing the false verses.

[45] Taking the 85 un-initialed suras and summing their last two verse numbers gives 6897, 19×363, confirming Sura 9’s last two verses as 126 and 127.

[46] Summing the digits of the last two verse numbers of every sura in the Quran gives 1824, 19×96, confirming Sura 9’s last two verses are 126 and 127, not 128 and 129.

[47] Suras whose verse count has 3 digits (18 such suras, including Sura 9’s 127): summing the last digit of each verse count gives 76, 19×4. If Sura 9 had 129 verses, its last digit would be 9 instead of 7, making the total 78, not a multiple of 19.

[48] Among those, suras with an odd 3-digit verse count (8 suras including Sura 9): the sum of last digits is 38, 19×2. With 129 verses, Sura 9’s last digit would be 9, making the sum 40, not a multiple of 19.

[49] Among odd-numbered suras with odd 3-digit verse counts, only three exist: Suras 9, 11, and 17 (127, 123, 111 verses).

[50] Adding the individual digits of these three suras’ verse counts: 1+2+7+1+2+3+1+1+1 = 19. With 129 for Sura 9, this would be 1+2+9+1+2+3+1+1+1 = 21, breaking the pattern.

[51] Adding the individual digits of the three sura numbers (9, 11, 17): 9+1+1+1+7 = 19.

[52] If Sura 9 had 129 verses (divisible by 3), and we require sura odd-numbered, 3-digit odd verse count divisible by 3, only Suras 11 and 17 qualify. Their digit sum is 1+1+1+2+3+1+7+1+1+1 = 19 — only true if Sura 9 has 127 verses.

[53] Sura 9 (odd-numbered, odd verse count ending in 7, prime verse count, sura number divisible by 3 & 9) shares these traits only with Sura 45 (37 verses). Digit sums: 9+1+2+7=19 and 4+5+3+7=19; combined total 38.

[54] If Sura 9 had 129 verses, the only suras whose number begins with “9” and verse count ends in “9” would be Sura 9 and Sura 96, with a grand total of 8828, not a multiple of 19. Correcting Sura 9 to 127 verses gives 8569, 19×451.

[55] If Sura 9 had 129 verses, its digit sum would be 21. Suras with verse-count digit sum of 21 (7 such suras) would total 34744, not a multiple of 19. Using the correct 127 verses, the total becomes 34485, or 19×1815.

[56] If Sura 9 had 129 verses (odd, divisible by 3, verse count divisible by 3, ending in 9), only Sura 15 shares these traits. Combined (9+129+15+99=252) is not a multiple of 19. Using the correct data (just Sura 15 alone, 15+99=114=19×6) restores the pattern.

[57] The last statement in 9:127 describes the disbelievers as “LAA YAFQAHOON” (they do not comprehend), ending in the letter “N” (Noon). The falsifiers’ version would end in “M” (Meem), from “AZEEM.” Examining first and last letters of every sura from the beginning to Sura 9 by gematrical value confirms the last true letter must be “N.”

[58] (Discovered by Ihsan Ramadan of Masjid Tucson.) 43 suras end with the letter “N,” matching Sura 9. Adding the sura numbers plus the count of such suras gives 1919 (a multiple of 19), confirming Sura 9 ends in “N,” not “M.”

[59] The phrase “LA ELAAHA ELLA HOO” (There is no god except He) occurs in the false injection 9:129. Excluding 9:129, this phrase occurs 29 times in 19 suras. Adding the sura numbers, the verse numbers where it occurs, and its occurrence count gives 2128, or 19×112.

[60] From the phrase’s first occurrence (2:163) to its last (73:9), the sum of sura numbers, verse counts, and sum of verse numbers is 316502, or 19×16658.

[61] The phrase occurs 7 times between the missing Basmalah of Sura 9 and the extra Basmalah of Sura 27. The sum of these 7 verse numbers is 323, or 19×17. If 9:129 were included, the total would be 452, not a multiple of 19.

The Ultimate Quranic Miracle

[62] (Discovered by Abdullah Arik.) Writing the number of verses in every sura followed by the numbers of every verse in that sura, in sequence, from the beginning to the end of the Quran, produces a number with 12692 digits (19×668), which is itself also a multiple of 19. Using 129 instead of 127 for Sura 9 would break both properties.

[63] Writing sura number 9, followed by its correct verse count 127, followed by the verse numbers 1 through 127, produces a number that is a multiple of 19.

[64] Applying the same method but using only the last digit of each odd-numbered verse in every sura produces a 3371-digit number divisible by 19. This depends on Sura 9 being represented correctly.

[65] Applying the same method to the 85 un-initialed suras only (each sura’s verses written in sequence, without the verse count prefix) produces a 6635-digit number divisible by 19. This depends on Sura 9 having 127 verses, not 129.

God’s Messenger of the Covenant Destined to Purify the Quran

[66] It is mathematically coded that “The person destined to prove that Sura 9 consists of 127 verses is Rashad Khalifa, God’s Messenger of the Covenant” (see Appendix 2). The gematrical value of “Rashad” (as written in the Quran, 40:29, 38) is 505 (R=200, Sh=300, A=1, D=4). The gematrical value of “Khalifa” (as written in 38:26) is 725 (Kh=600, L=30, I=10, F=80, H=5). Writing 505, then 725, then 9, then 127 produces 5057259127, a multiple of 19 (19 x 266171533).

[67] The number of verses from 3:81, where God’s Messenger of the Covenant is prophesied, to 9:127, is 988 (19×52).

[68] The sum of verse numbers from 3:81 to 9:127 is also a multiple of 19.

[69] In Verse 3:78, just 3 verses before proclaiming God’s Messenger of the Covenant, the word “God” number 361 (19×19) occurs. This verse informs us that some falsifiers will “add falsehood to the Quran, then claim that it is part of the Quran; they attribute lies to God, knowingly.”

[70] The word “God” occurs 912 times (19×48) from Verse 3:78, which exposes the falsifiers, to 9:127.

[71] The number of letters plus the number of words in 3:78 and in the false verses 9:128-129 give the same total, 143. Verse 3:78 consists of 27 words and 116 letters; 9:128-129 consist of 115 letters and 28 words.

What Can We Say?

The overwhelming physical evidence provided by the Almighty to protect and authenticate His message leaves no doubt that: (1) no distortion of any kind can enter the Quran, (2) Verses 9:128-129 do not belong in the Quran, and (3) every element in the Quran is mathematically structured far beyond human capabilities—the number of suras, the number of verses, the numbers assigned to the suras and verses, the frequency of occurrence of key expressions, the number of words, the number of letters, and the unique and often uncommon spelling of certain words.

This Appendix documents a profound miracle in its own right. Vast and utterly overwhelming as it is, it does not surpass or even match the overall mathematical miracle of the Quran which is detailed in Appendix One. This merely confirms the fact that the Almighty Author of the Quran has deliberately permitted the blasphemous addition of two verses to Sura 9 in order to:

1. Demonstrate an essential function of the Quran’s mathematical composition.
2. Prove the impossibility of tampering with the Quran.
3. Fulfill God’s promise to distinguish the believers and expose the hypocrites.

Why Did God Permit It For 1400 Years??

Due to the mass corruption of Islam shortly after the prophet Muhammad’s death, God obviously has fulfilled His pledge in 47:38. A divine decree issued in Sura 47, entitled “Muhammad,” Verse 38 (19×2), stipulates that “if the Arabs failed to uphold the Quran, God will dismiss them from His grace, and substitute other people in their place.”

When the Arabs distorted the Quran a few years after the Prophet’s death, and exterminated the Prophet’s family in the process, they incurred God’s pledge of 47:38, and no longer deserved to possess the Quran; the true Quran. The evidence is irrefutable that the Arabs have abandoned the Quran en masse.

For example, there is not a single mosque in the so-called Muslim world today (1989) that upholds the crucial commandment: “The mosques belong to God; you shall not invoke anyone else besides God” (72:18).

The call to prayer (Azan) and the prayer itself are no longer devoted to God alone; Muhammad’s name is invariably invoked along with the name of God.

The “First Pillar of Islam” is clearly stated in the Quran, 3:18 & 47:19, and its words are decreed to be: LAA ELAAHA ELLA ALLAH (There is no other god besides God). But the Muslims, as early as the first century AH, do not want God if Muhammad is not invoked along with Him. This is easily demonstrable today by going into any mosque and declaring: “LAA ELAAHA ELLA ALLAH;” this will actually enrage today’s Muslims. This behavior is documented in the Quran, 39:45. Moreover, my own research has now convinced me that the traditional Muslims are forbidden by God from uttering the Quranic, divinely dictated Shahaadah: “Ash-hadu Allaa Elaaha Ellaa Allah.” They can never say this Shahaadah (without invoking Muhammad’s name). Test them yourself. The First Pillar of the distorted Islam, LAA ELAAHA ELLA ALLAH, MUHAMMAD RASOOL ALLAH, does not conform with God’s commandments that came to us through Muhammad (see Appendix 13).

A number of other commandments are violated as well by this Mohammedan Shahaadah. For example, the Quran enjoins us repeatedly from making any distinction among God’s messengers (2:136, 285; 3:84). The distorted Shahaadah gives more distinction to Muhammad, against his will. Despite the Quran’s repeated assertions that it is “complete, perfect, and fully detailed” (6:19, 38, & 114), the “Muslims” have refused to believe their Creator; they uphold such ridiculous and nonsensical sources as Hadith and Sunna. This unanimous rebellion against God and His messenger, and the mass reversion to glaring idolatry—idolizing the Prophet and the saints—called for fulfillment of God’s pledge in 47:38.

In view of the incontrovertible divine evidence presented here, and in Appendices 1, 2, and 26, one can truly appreciate the following verses:

Surely, we have revealed this message, and surely, we will preserve it. [15:9]

Say, “If all the humans, and all the jinns, banded together, in order to produce a Quran like this, they will surely fail, no matter how much assistance they lend one another.” [17:88]

The disbelievers rejected this message when it came to them, though it is a profound scripture. No falsehood can enter it, through addition or deletion. For it is a revelation from the Most Wise, Most Praiseworthy. [41:41-42]

If we revealed this Quran to a mountain, you would see it trembling, crumbling, out of reverence for God. [59:21]

Praise be to God! There is no other god except God.

The Quran, informs us that Jesus was a human messenger of God whose sole mission was to deliver God’s message; he never possessed any power, and is now dead (4:171, 5:75, 117). Those who consider Jesus to be God, or Son of God, or part of a trinity are “pagans” (5:17, 72, 73). Outstanding Christian scholars have reached these same conclusions (THE MYTH OF GOD INCARNATE, John   Hick, ed., The Westminster Press, Philadelphia, 1977 & THE MYTH MAKER, Hyam Maccoby, Harper & Row 1986). Christianity is the product of the Nicene Conferences, the first of which happened 325 years after Jesus.

 

The Bible’s Jesus

Jesus proclaimed aloud: “Whoever puts faith in me believes not so much in me as in him who sent me;…. For I have not spoken on my own; no, the Father who sent me has commanded me what to say and how to speak. Since I know that his commandment means eternal life, whatever I say is spoken just as he instructed me.”  

[ John 12:44-50 ]

“I cannot do anything of myself. I judge as I hear, and my judgment is honest because I am not seeking my own will but the will of him who sent me.”

[ John 5:30 ]

Jesus said: “My doctrine is not my own; it comes from him who sent me.”

[ John 7:16 ]

“Men of Israel, listen to me! Jesus of Nazareth was a man whom God sent to   you with miracles, wonders, and signs as his credentials. These God worked through him in your midst, as you well know.”

[ Acts 2:22 ]

 “…The man who hears my word and has faith in him who sent me possesses eternal life.”    

[ John 5:24 ]

“Whoever welcomes me welcomes, not me, but him who sent me.”

[ Matthew 10:40, Mark 9:37, Luke 9:48, & John 13:20]

“…I have not come of myself. I was sent by One who has the right to send, and him you do not know. I know him because it is from him I come; he sent me.”

[ John 7:28-29 ]

Jesus looked up to heaven and said, “…Eternal life is this: to know you, the only true God, and him whom you have sent, Jesus Christ.”

[ John 17:1-3 ]

All who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.

[ Romans 8:14 ]

Jesus looked upward and said, “Father, I thank you for having heard me. I know that you always hear me but I have said this for the sake of the crowd, that they may believe that you sent me.”

[ John 11:41-42 ]

As he was setting out on a journey a man came running up, knelt down before him and asked, “Good Teacher, what must I do to share in everlasting life?” Jesus answered, “Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone.”

[ Mark 10:17-18 ]

“None of those who call me ‘Lord’ will enter the kingdom of God, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven.”

[Matthew 7:21]

“…Go to my brothers and tell them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’ ”

[ John 20:17 ]

“God is my Lord and your Lord; you shall worship Him alone. This is the right path.”

[ Quran 3:51, 19:36, & 43:64 ]

Trinity, the doctrine of God taught by Christians asserts that God is one in essence but three in “person,” Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Neither the word Trinity, nor the explicit doctrine as such, appears in the New Testament, nor did Jesus and his followers intend to contradict the Shema in the Old Testament which is “Hear O Israel: The Lord our God is one” (Deut. 6:4).

Praise be to God! There is no other god except God.

In God’s kingdom, certain creatures are necessarily given the powers needed to perform their duties. Satan believed that his God-given powers qualified him to function as an independent “god”. As evidenced by the prevalence of misery, disease, accidents, and war in his dominion, we now know that Satan is incompetent.

The Quran clearly states that Satan was an angel, by virtue of the immense powers and rank bestowed upon him. This is why he is addressed as an angel (2:34, 7:11, 15:29, 17:61,18:50, 20:116, 38:71) prior to his fall. By definition, a jinn is a fallen angel (18:50). Satan’s rebellion teaches us that the angels were created with minds of their own, and absolute freedom of choice (2:34).

Praise be to God! There is no other god except God.

The Quran is God’s Final Testament to the world, and He has pledged to protect it from the slightest distortion (15:9). Thus, the Quran is surrounded by invisible forces that guard it and serve it (13:39, 41:42, 42:24).

Unlike any other book, the Quran is taught by God (55:1-2); He teaches us what we need at the time we need it. This is why we read the Quran hundreds of times without getting bored. We can read a novel, for example, only once. But the Quran can be read an infinite number of times, and we derive new and valuable information from it every time. On the other hand, the insincere readers—those who read the Quran to find fault with it—are diverted from the Quran (7:146, 17:45, 18:57, 41:44). In fact, God’s invisible forces help them find “the faults” they seek. Since the Quran is perfect, such “faults” serve only to reveal the stupidity of God’s enemies.

God uses His own attributes to describe the Quran; He calls the Quran “‘Azeem = Great” (15:87), “Hakeem = Full of wisdom” (36:2), “Majid = Glorious” (50:1), and “Karim = Honorable” (56:77). What can we say?

Since the Quran is God’s message to all the people, regardless of their language, the Quran is accessible to the believers, regardless of their language (41:44). This explains a profound phenomenon: the believers who do not know Arabic know the Quran better than the Arabic speaking unbelievers. Because of the invisible forces serving the Quran, it is readily and enjoyably accessible to the sincere believers, and utterly inaccessible to the unbelievers (17:45, 18:57, 56:79).

Praise be to God! There is no other god except God.

Verse 45:6 in the Quran says, “Which Hadith, other than God and His revelations, do they uphold?”

Verse 12:111 says that the Quran is not a fabricated hadith; it details everything.

Verse 31:6 says, “Some people uphold vain Hadith to divert others from the path of God.”

Verses 17:77, 33:62, 48:23, and 6:114 say that the only Sunna to follow shall be God’s Sunna.

The Quran informs us that some enemies of the Prophet, described as “human and jinn devils,” will fabricate lies and attribute them to the Prophet (6:112, 25:31). This is precisely what happened after the prophet Muhammad’s death; Hadith (oral sayings) and Sunna (actions) were invented and attributed to the Prophet. Hadith and Sunna are satanic innovations because they: [1] defy the divine assertions that the Quran is complete, perfect, fully detailed, and shall be the only source of religious guidance (6:19, 38, 114 & 45:6-7), [2] blaspheme against the Prophet and depict him as a vicious tyrant who did not uphold the Quran, and [3] create false doctrines based on superstition, ignorance, and indefensible nonsensical traditions. The prophet Muhammad was enjoined, in very strong words, from issuing any religious teachings besides the Quran (69:38-48).

Some “Muslims” compromise. They say, “If a Hadith agrees with the Quran we will accept it, and if it contradicts the Quran, we will reject it!” Such premise proves that these people do not believe God’s assertions that the Quran is “complete, perfect and fully detailed.” The moment they seek guidance from anything besides the Quran, no matter how “right” it seems, they fall into Satan’s trap (see  63:1), because they have rejected God’s word and set up another god besides God (18:57).

The Quran’s mathematical miracle provides mathematical evidence that the Quran shall be our only source of religious teachings. Here are just 2 examples:

1. ““= The phrase, “We did not leave anything out of this book,” is in Verse 38 (19×2) and consists of 19 Arabic letters (6:38).
2. “ ”  = The phrase “He sent down this book fully detailed,” is in Verse 114 (19×6) and consists of 19 Arabic letters (6:114).

Praise be to God! There is no other god except God.

The words of the Quran speak in verse 19:64, saying, “We come down in accordance with the commandments of your Lord. To Him belongs the past, the present, and the future. Your Lord never forgets.” God did not forget, for example, to tell us how to sleep (18:109, 31:27). Yet, the fabricators of such false doctrine as Hadith & Sunna have come up with religious teachings dictating to their followers how to sleep, and even how to cut your nails. The Sacred Mosque in Mecca and the illegal “Sacred Mosque” of Medina, hired some individuals to seek out the exhausted visitors and beat them with a stick if they fall asleep on the wrong side!

The Quran proclaims that the Quran is complete, perfect, and fully detailed (6:19, 38, 114, 115; 50:45), and that religious regulations not specifically instituted in the Quran constitute a religion other than Islam (Submission) (42:21, 17:46). The true believers uphold the Quran, the whole Quran, and nothing but the Quran. This principle is confirmed by the Quran’s mathematical code. Verse 46 of Sura 17 proclaims that we shall uphold the Quran ALONE. The word “ALONE” occurs in the Quran 6 times: in verse 7:70, 17:46, 39:45, 40:12, 40:84, and 60:4. All these occurrences refer to God, except 17:46. When we add the numbers of suras and verses which refer to “GOD ALONE,” we get 361, 19×19. This proves that 17:46 refers to “the Quran ALONE.”

Praise be to God! There is no other god except God.

Death is a great mystery to most people. Not so for the students of the Quran. We learn that death is exactly like sleeping; complete with dreams (6:60, 40:46). The period between death and resurrection passes like one night of sleep (2:259; 6:60; 10:45; 16:21; 18:11, 19, 25; 30:55).

At the moment of death, everyone knows his or her destiny; Heaven or Hell. For the disbelievers, death is a horrible event; the angels beat them on the faces and rear ends as they snatch away their souls (8:50, 47:27, 79:1).

Consistently, the Quran talks about two deaths, the first death took place when we failed to make a stand with God’s absolute authority. That first death lasted until we were born into this world. The second death terminates our life in this world (2:28, 22:66, 40:11).

Praise be to God! There is no other god except God.

The Quran teaches that God is extremely displeased with those who prohibit anything that was not specifically prohibited in the Quran (16:112-116). The upholding of any prohibitions not specifically mentioned in the Quran is tantamount to idolatry (6:142-152). Such prohibitions represent some other god(s) besides God. If you worship God ALONE, you will uphold His teachings ALONE and honor the commandments and prohibitions instituted only by Him.

The absolute specificity of dietary prohibitions in the Quran is best illustrated in verses 6:145-146. We learn from these two verses that when God prohibits “meat,” He prohibits “meat” and nothing else, and when He prohibits “fat,” that is what He specifically prohibits. These two verses inform us that “the meat” of pigs is prohibited, not “the fat.” Obviously, God knew that in many countries, lard would be used in baked goods and other food products, and that such usage does not render the foods Haraam (prohibited). The Quran specifically prohibits four meats (2:173, 5:3, 6:142-145, and 16:112). It says, “Say, “I do not find in what was revealed to me anything prohibited for any eater unless it is (1) carrion, (2) running blood, the meat of pigs, for it is unclean, and meat blasphemously dedicated to other than God.” If one is forced to eat these without being malicious or deliberate, then your Lord is Forgiver, Most Merciful.

Religious Duties: Gift from God

Quran: All You Need for Salvation

Hadith and Sunna: Satanic Innovations

Join us to listen to our online Friday meetings every Friday.

 

Praise be to God! There is no other god except God.

When Abraham implored God in 14:40, he did not ask for wealth or health; the gift he implored for was: “Please God, make me one who observes the contact prayers (Salat).” The religious duties instituted by God are in fact a great gift from Him. They constitute the nourishment required for the growth and development of our souls. Without such nourishment, we cannot survive the immense energy associated with God’s physical presence on the Day of Judgment. Belief in God does not by itself guarantee our redemption; we must also nourish our souls (6:158, 10:90-92). Additionally, verse 15:99 states that observing the religious duties instituted by God is our means of attaining certainty. It says, “Worship your Lord in order to attain certainty.”

 

The Contact Prayers (Salat)

The main practices of worship, or religious duty, which came to us all the way from Abraham is the Contact Prayer. You can learn how to do it correctly in the video titled “Principles of Muslim Prayer” by Rashad Khalifa. And those are the basic principles. Alban Fejza provides more concrete details about their times in his clarifying video titled “Times of Contact Prayers.” Also, Alban Fejza provides more details in another video to inform you about exceptions in our modern living circumstances, in cities, parks, at work and so on, but if you want a very quick way to learn it, you can watch Alban Fejza’s Friday Sermon titled, “How to become a muslim in 3 minutes?”

But what the important part to say here is that the daily contact prayers are the main meals for the soul. While a soul may attain some growth and development by leading a righteous life, and without observing the contact prayers, this would be like surviving on snacks without regular meals.

Also, the Friday noon congregational prayer is an obligatory duty upon every Submitting man and woman (62:9). Failure to observe the Friday Prayer is a gross offense.

The proof that Salat was already established through Abraham is found in verses 8:35, 9:54, 16:123, & 21:73. This most important duty in Islam (Submission) has been so severely distorted that the contact prayers (Salat) have become a practice in idolatry for the vast majority of Muslims. Although the Quran commands that our contact prayers must be devoted to God alone (20:14; 39:3, 45), today’s Muslims insist on commemorating “Muhammad and his family” and “Abraham and his family” during their prayers. This renders their own prayers null and void (39:65).

 

The Obligatory Charity (Zakat)

The other religious’ duty is Obligatory Charity (Zakat). It can be done in two ways, depending on whether you are part of a disbelieving community, or a believing community. However, because of internet, today we are always capable of being part of a believing community, and therefore the second option is the one which we should do. And I explain everything you need to know about this second option, which is actually the main option, it has traditionally been the main option throughout history from the time of Abraham until know. And you can find the explanation about all of it from the Quran, no other sources. Alban Fejza explains all of it from the Quran in the clarifying video titled “The Obligatory Charity (Zakat)”

 

Fasting

The other religious duty is fasting. You can find all the details of fasting in verses 2:183-187.

 

Pilgrimage: Hajj & Umrah

And the last religious duty is Pilgrimage: Hajj & ‘Umrah. Once in a lifetime, Hajj and ‘Umrah are decreed for those who can afford it. Pilgrimage commemorates Abraham’s exemplary submission to God, and must be observed during the four Sacred Months— Zul-Hijjah, Muharram, Safar, & Rabi‘ I (12th, 1st, 2nd, 3rd month) (2:197; 9:2, 36). ‘Umrah can be observed any time. Like all other duties in Islam, Hajj has been distorted. Most Muslims observe Hajj only during a few days in Zul-Hijjah, and they consider Rajab, Zul-Qi’dah, Zul-Hijjah, and Muharram (7th, 11th, 12th, 1st months) to be the Sacred Months. This is a distortion that is strongly condemned (9:37).

The pilgrimage begins with a bath or shower, followed by a state of sanctity called “Ihraam,” where the male pilgrim wears seamless sheets of material, and the woman wears a modest dress (2:196). Throughout Hajj, the pilgrim abstains from sexual intercourse, vanities such as shaving and cutting the hair, arguments, misconduct, and bad language (2:197). Cleanliness, bathing, and regular hygiene practices are encouraged. Upon arrival at the Sacred Mosque in Mecca, the pilgrim walks around the Ka‘bah seven times, while glorifying and praising God (2:125, 22:26-29). The common formula is: “Labbayka Allaahumma Labbayk” (My God, I have responded to You). “Labbayka Laa Shareeka Laka Labbayk” (I have responded to You, and I proclaim that there is no other god besides You; I have responded to You). The next step is to walk the half-mile distance between the knolls of Safa and Marwah seven times, with occasional trotting (2:158). This completes the ‘Umrah portion of the pilgrimage.

The pilgrim then goes to ‘Arafat to spend a day of worship, meditation, and glorification of God, from dawn to sunset (2:198). After sunset, the pilgrim goes to Muzdalifah where the Night Prayer is observed, and 21 pebbles are picked up for the symbolic stoning of Satan at Mina. From Muzdalifah, the pilgrim goes to Mina to spend two or three days (2:203). On the first morning at Mina, the pilgrim offers an animal sacrifice to feed the poor and to commemorate God’s intervention to save Ismail and Abraham from Satan’s trick (37:107). The stoning ceremonies symbolize rejection of Satan’s polytheism and are done by throwing seven pebbles at each of three stations, while glorifying God (15:34). The pilgrim then returns to Mecca and observes a farewell circumvolution of the Ka‘bah seven times.

Unfortunately, most of today’s Muslim pilgrims make it a custom to visit the prophet Muhammad’s tomb in Medina where they commit the most flagrant acts of idolatry and thus nullify their Hajj. The Quran consistently talks about “The Sacred Mosque,” while today’s Muslims talk about “The Two Sacred Mosques”! In a glaring act of idolatry, the Muslims have set up Muhammad’s tomb as another “Sacred Mosque”! This is a blasphemous violation of the Quran, and, ironically, even violates Hadith. The Hadith shown here illustrates this strange irony:

This hadith says, “God has cursed the Jews and Christians for turning the tombs of their prophets into mosques.”

 

Physical Benefits

In addition to their invaluable spiritual benefits, there is a large number of physical, economic, and health benefits from observing the contact prayers (Salat), obligatory charity (Zakat), fasting during the month of Ramadan, and Hajj.

Observing the Dawn prayer interrupts long periods of stillness during sleep; this is now proven to help prevent arthritis. Also, getting up early in the morning helps combat depression and other psychological problems. The prostration position which is repeated during the contact prayers expands the blood vessels in our brains to accommodate more blood, and this prevents headaches. The repeated bending of the back and the joints is a healthful exercise. All these are scientifically established facts.

The ablutions required prior to the contact prayers encourage us to use the toilet more frequently. This habit protects us from a common and devastating cancer, colon cancer.

Fasting during the month of Ramadan restores our expanded stomachs to their normal sizes, lowers our blood pressure through temporary dehydration, rids the body of harmful toxins, gives our kidneys a much needed rest, and reduces our weight by removing excessive and harmful fat.

And Zakat charity and Hajj pilgrimage have far reaching economic and social benefits.
