MUSLIM PERSPECTIVE Published Monthly by MASJID TUCSON RABI' I, 1407 NOVEMBER 1986 Editor: Rashad Khalifa, Ph.D. ARABS DISMISSED FROM GOD'S GRACE incurring the ultimate curse Sura Muhammad, Verse 38 (19x2) DOOR OF REPENTANCE CLOSED ON ARABS or be forbidden from eing the mi cole maguran ben. The last ten years of the fourteenth Islamic witnessed the great oil bonanza for the Arabs. This appears to mark the beginning of the end for them. Verses 44 through 46 of Sura 6 teach us that, along with the oil bonanza, God has taken away the Arabs' ability to hear, see, or understand. The evidence is overwhelming that the Arabs' ability to compre- hend God's signs has been taken away. Seemingly intelligent Arabs who would talk to you about this world's sciences and philosophies, suddenly turn utterly dumb when it comes to Qur'an irrefutable mathematical Verse 44 of Sura 6 states: Because they disre- garded the message given to them, we opened for them the gates of everything. Then, just as they rejoiced in the material things given to them, we seized them suddenly, and they became utterly stunned. 46 then informs us that God takes away their hearing, their eyesight and seals their minds. Of course this curse refers to everything having to do with anything and God; they can no longer hear, see, or understand God's message. 8 message to them. HERE IS THE EVIDENCE The top religious scholars of the Arab World held a meeting in Riyadh, Saudi look at the Qur'an's mathematical miracle. under the leadership of Saudi Arabia's grand Mufti Abdul Aziz Ben Baz. The official title of Ben Baz is: President of the Departments of Scientific Research and Rules and Da'wah and Guidance (see Arabic inlay from his official stationary). Ben Baz, by the way, is the notorious scholar who still believes that the earth is flat (see the New York Times, December 14, 1984). The top Arab scholars published their findings throughout the world, including their English publication IMPACT INTERNATIONAL (8-21 August 1986, Page 3). pill ......

Besides, it is not the aS first Qur'anic verse Dr Khalifah has claimed. Judging irom this report, it is obviors that are hopelessly scholars stuck on the very firsi item of God's undeniabie mathematical miracle. As shown in the photo- that Bism which is the first verse oi Quran. "contains neither just Now, thel are even trying to remove the Basmalah irom Qur'an altogether!!! Apparent!! first proof that they are utterly forbidden from seeing the miracle. In my translation of Qur'an, Footnote 1:1 stated that Basmalah is "the foundation upon which a great miracle is built." The great Arab scholars figured that the "foundation", then the unaninous agreement amore the Qur anir scholars hasmalah' is a part of the first surah and ni the subsequent independent we siart reciting the Qur'an. or whether it is meart 35 in indicator of the end ne a suran discussed extensivel! of these Once there is no consensus achiered on all these points - except Surah 27 lal-Naml) - a solld foundation cannot thus be laid down for i 'miraculous Qur'an. This means that many points claimed to rest upon the ficure 19, and hence the whole theory, will crumble. IMPACT INTERNATIONAL 8. 21 AUGUST 1986 A ierrible dilemma for the great Arab schol- ars is that any grade school student who looks at the Basmalah at the top of Sheikh: Ben Baz's own stallonary and count the words, hel she will see four words and 19 letters. How would they convince that student that the Basmalah "contains neither just nineteen letters nor four words"? It is noteworthy that the great Arab scholars did not tell us exactly how many letters and/or words are in the Basmalah. Lisa Spray of Masjid "They must be still counting Tucson quipped, the letters and words of Basmalah!!! Naturally, the great Arab scholars did not say a thing about the fact the letter Qaf is in each of the mentioned 57 times (19x3) Qaf-initialed suras (42 & 50). They said nothing about the physical fact that the SSaad-initialed suras (7, 19, & 38) contain 152 SSaads (19x8). They said nothing about the profound physical fact that the HHA MEEM-initialed suras contain 2147 HHA & MEEM (19x113). They said nothing about the established and easy to confirm fact that Sura YA SEEN contains precisely 285 YA & SEEN (19x15); and so on and on. IS THIS NOT POSITIVE PROOF THAT GOD HAS TAKEN AWAY THEIR HEARING, THEIR EYESIGHT AND SEALED THEIR MINDS"? (Sura 6, Verse 46) Now let us see how confused these scholars are. Shown below is a photocopy of two letters from Dr. Muhammad Abdul Rauf, Rector of the International Islamic University, Malaysia. Dr. Abdul Rauf is an internationally recognized Muslim scholar. In his letter dated December 18, 1985, he stated that Basmalah is either 17 letters, or 20 letters (he doesn't know). dated September 16, 1986, he counts 19 letters in Basmalah and adds up their numerical value, the famous (Continued on Page 4) INTERNATIONAL VLAMIC UNIVERJITY Thus. al-Basmalah consists of 20 letters, counting each Dr. M.

The numher 6 is famous throughout lions of Muslims write it at the top of their substitute for smalah. As shown from *er on Page 2, the number 786 represents total numerical value of the Basmalah's inabel letters. The chapter entitled lanti Six" in Dr. Sakr's book deals with the nerical value of Basmalah. On Page 214. Sakr states: "Remember, dear Muslims, read you composed of 19 letters, you will be rewarded Allah 190 times or 380 times accordingly." ¡ase note that, in addition to Dr. Sakr's iement that Basmalah "consists of 19 letters," = numbers of rewards that he lists (190 & » are multiples of 19. But there is no greater sign of confusion oi the great Arab scholars than the part i: fact that they thanked me at the beginning their report (see the photocopy on Page 2), in called me kafir, accusing me of disbelief ¿ apostas! towards the end of the report!!!!! MAIL TO: Did they, all of a sudden, discover that i was kafir while writing the final report on their lengthy meeting? Did they thank me before discovering that I was a kafir?!! It is no surprise to the readers of MUSLIM PERSPECTIVE that the enemies of Islam around the world, be them orientalists or evangelists, etc. have gladly decided to leave the fight against Qur'an to the Arab scholars. Although they recognize the truthfulness and awesome power of the Qur'an's mathematical miracle, they no longer need to oppose it; our Muslim are doing a better job at keeping the people away from it. Brother Abdul Aziz I have to quote here Kassim of Singapore:"A lot of people (including the miracle of 19 even the learned) relect though they know it is the truth. Do they ever think that the miracle can help mankind and the Muslims in the cause of God? To the non-Muslims, those of we can invite them, weak faith, we can help them, the Jews and the Christians we can invite them and those who have gone astrav we have the opportunitv to bring them back.
