The Mathematical Miracle of # 19 in the Quran! any truth to this?

"Mathematics is the language with which God has written the universe" (Galileo)





Chapter 74 of the Quran, God's Final Testament, is dedicated to the number


19. The name of that chapter is "Al-Muddassir" (The Hidden Secret). The


number 19 is specifically mentioned in that Chapter as a punishment for


those who state that the scripture is human-made (74:25), and proclaims


that the 19 is "One of the greatest" (74:35). In 74:31, the purpose of the


number 19 is spelled out: to remove all doubt regarding the authenticity of


the Quran, increase the faith of the believers, and to be a scientific


punishment for hypocrites and disbelievers. However, the implication of


this number as a proof for the authenticity of the Quran remained unknown


for centuries. For fourteen centuries, the commentators tried in vain to


understand the function and fulfilment of the number 19.





In 1974, the Lord of the universe unveiled the secret of number 19 to Dr.


Rashad Khalifa, an Egyptian-American biochemist. His four-year long


computerized study on the Quran did not have any expected target.


Surprisingly, he discovered the mathematically intertwined structure by


"chance." This multifold interlocked mathematical design is a message in


universal language. This message, providing a built-in physical evidence of


its divine source, leaves no doubt in our heart that the Quran is The Final


Testament.





Before the secret is decoded





Before the discovery of 19-based system, we knew a symmetrical mathematical


system in the Quran. For example:





© The word "month" (shahr) occurs 12 times.





© The word "day" (yawm) occurs 365 times.





© The word "days" (ayyam,yewmeyn) occurs 30 times.





© The words "satan" (shaytan) and "angel" (malak), both occur 88 times.





© The words "this world" (dunya) and "hereafter" (ahirah), both occur 115 times.





Simple to understand, impossible to imitate





The mathematical structure of the Final Testament is simple to understand


and impossible to imitate. You do not need to know Arabic, the original


language of the Quran to examine it for yourself. Basically what you need


is to be able to count upto19. Dr. Khalifa introduces this supernatural


message as follows:





The Quran is characterized by a unique phenomenon never found in any human


authored book. Every element of the Quran is mathematically composed-the


chapters, the verses, the words, the number of certain letters, the number


of words from the same root, the number and variety of divine names, the


unique spelling of certain words, and many other elements of the Quran


besides its content. There are two major facets of the Quran's mathematical


system: (1) The mathematical literary composition, and (2) The mathematical


structure involving the numbers of chapters and verses. Because of this


comprehensive mathematical coding, the slightest distortion of the Quran's


text or physical arrangement is immediately exposed (Quran The Final


Testament, Translated by Rashad Khalifa, Islamic Productions, Tucson, 1989,


p 609).





Nineteen, as the mathematical code of the Quran, is a challenge for


atheists, an invitation for agnostics and a guidance for believers. It is a


perpetual miracle for the computer generation. It is the light of the


morning promised by God Almighty (74:33).





Physical, examinable divine proof





Here is the summary of this historical discovery:





© The first verse, i.e., the opening statement "Bismillahirrahmanirrahim",


shortly "Basmalah," consists of 19 Arabic letters.





© The first word of Basmalah, Ism (name) occurs in the Quran 19 times.





© The second word of Basmalah, Allah (God) occurs 2698 times, or 19x142.





© The third word of Basmalah, Rahman (Gracious) occurs 57 times, or 19x3.





© The fourth word of Basmalah, Rahim (Merciful) occurs 114 times, or 19x6.





Although this phenomenon (the opening statement consists of 19 letters, and


each word occurs in multiple of 19) represents a minute portion of the


code, it was described by Martin Gardner in the Scientific American as


"ingenious" (September, 1981, p. 22-24)





© The multiplication factors of the words of the Basmalah (1+142+3+6) add


up to 152 or 19x8.





© The Quran consists of 114 chapters, which is 19x6.





© The total number of verses in the Quran including all Basmalahs is 6346,


or 19x334. If you add the digits of that number, 6+3+4+6 equals 19.





© The Basmalah occurs 114 times, (despite its conspicuous absence from


chapter 9, it occurs twice in chapter 27) and 114 is 19x6.





© From the missing Basmalah of chapter 9 to the extra Basmalah of chapter


27, there are precisely 19 chapters.





© It follows that the sum of the chapter numbers from 9 to 27


(9+10+11+12.......+26+27) is 342. This total (342) also equals the number


of words between the two Basmalahs of chapter 27, and 342 equals 19x18.





© The occurrence of the extra Basmalah is in 27:30. The number of the


chapter and the verse add up to 57, or 19x3.





© Each letter of the Arabic alphabet corresponds to a number according to


their original sequence in the alphabet. The Arabs were using this system


for calculations. When the Quran was revealed 14 centuries ago, the numbers


known today did not exist. A universal system was used where the letters of


the Arabic, Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek alphabets were used as numerals. The


number assigned to each letter is its "Gematrical Value." The numerical


values of the Arabic alphabet are shown below:





A study on the gematrical values of about 200 attributes of God which are


mentioned in the Quran, shows that only four names have gematrical values


which are multiples of 19. These are "Wahid" (One), "Zul Fadl al Azim"


(Possessor of Infinite Grace), "Majid" (Glorous), "Jaami" (Summoner). Their


gematrical value are 19 , 2698, 57, and 114 respectively, which are all


divisible by 19 and correspond exactly to the frequencies of occurrence of


the Basmalah's four words.





© The total numbers of verses where the word Allah (God) occurs add up to


118123, and is 19x6217.





© The total occurrences of the word Allah (God) in all the verses whose


numbers are multiples of 19 is 133, or 19x7.





© The first revelation (96:1-5) consists of 19 words.





© This 19-worded first revelation consists of 76 letters, 19x4.





© Chapter 96, first in the chronological sequence, consists of 19 verses.





© This first chronological chapter is placed ahead of the last 19 chapters.





© Chapter 96 consists of 304 Arabic letters, 19x16.





© The last revelation, chapter 110, consists of 19 verses.





© The first verse of the last revelation consists of 19 letters.





© The word "the Quran" occurs 57 times, or 19x3. (The word in 10:15 is a


different Quran, so it is not counted)





© The key commandment: "You shall devote your worship to God alone" (in


Arabic "Wahdahu") occurs in 7:70; 39:45; 40:12,84; and 60:4. The total of


these numbers adds up to 361, or 19x19.





© The Quran is characterized by a unique phenomenon that is not found in


any other book: 29 chapters are prefixed with "Quranic Initials" which


remained mysterious for 1406 years. With the discovery of the code 19 , we


realized their major role in the Quran's mathematical structure. The


initials occur in their respective chapters in multiples of 19. For


example, Chapter 19 has five letters in its beginning, K.H.Y.A'.SS., and


the total occurrence of these letters in this chapter is 798, or 19x42.





© To witness the details of the miracle of these initials, a short chapter


which begins with one initial, letter "Q" will be a good example. The


frequency of "Q" in chapter 50 is 57, or 19x3. The letter "Q" occurs in the


other Q-initialed chapter, i.e., chapter 42, exactly the same number of


times, 57. The total occurrence of the letter "Q" in the two Q-initialed


chapters is 114, which equals the number of chapters in the Quran. "The


Quran" is mentioned in the Quran 57 times. The description of the Quran as


"Majid" (Glorious) is correlated with the frequency of occurrence of the


letter "Q" in each of the Q-initialed chapters. The word "Majid" has a


gematrical value of 57. Chapter 42 consists of 53 verses, and 42+53 is 95,


or 19x5. Chapter 50 consists of 45 verses, and 50+45 is 95, or 19x5. The


number of Q's in all ver-ses numbered "19" throughout the Quran is 76, or


19x4.





© The Quran mentions 30 different numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,


11, 12, 19, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 99, 100, 200, 300, 1000, 2000,


3000, 5000, 50000, %26amp; 100000. The sum of these numbers is 162146, which


equals 19x8534.





© If we write down the number of each verse in the Quran, one next to the


other, preceded by the number of verses in each chapter, the resulting long


number consists of 12692 digits (19x668). Additionally, the huge number


itself is also a multiple of 19.





The details of this study is endless. Keeping up with the new discoveries


is a challenging task.





In the original of The Old Testament





Is this mathematical structure unique to the Quran? For a while we thougt


so. But, we were wrong. The same 19-based mathematical composition was


discovered by Rabbi Judah in the 12th century AD in a preserved part of the


Old Testament. Evidently, the prime number 19 is the signiture of God, the


Greatest Matematician.





Below is the copy from Studies In Jewish Mysticism:





"The people (Jews) in France made it a custom to add (in the morn ing


prayer) the words: Ashrei temimei derekh (blessed are those who walk the


righteous way), and our Rabbi, the Pious, of blessed memory, wrote that


they were completely and utterly wrong. It is all gross falsehood, be cause


there are only nineteen times that the Holy Name is mentioned (in that


portion of the morning prayer), . . . and similarly you find the word


Elohim nineteen times in the peri cope of Ve- elleh shemot . . . .





Similarly, you find that Israel were called sons nineteen times, and


there are many other examples. All these sets of nineteen are intricately


inter twined, and they contain many secrets and esoteric meanings, which


are contained in more than eight volumes. Therefore, anyone who has the


fear of God in him will not listen to the words of the Frenchmen who add


the verse Ashrei temimei derekh (blessed are those who walk in the paths


of God s Torah, for according to their additions the Holy Name is mentioned


twenty times . . . and this is a great mistake. Furthermore, in this


section there are 152 words, but if you add Ashrei temimei derekh there


are 158 words. This is nonsense, for it is a great and hidden secret why


there should be 152 words . . ." (Dan, Joseph. Studies In Jewish Mysticism,


Association for Jewish Studies. Cambridge, Massachusetts: 1978, p 88.)





How can we explain this phenomenon?





There are primarily four possible explanations:





1) Manipulation: You may be skeptical about our data regarding the


mathematical structure of Quran. However, you can eliminate this option in


several hours by random checking of our detailed computer print out. We


have published them in several books and they can be obtained from the


Monotheist Production International.





2) Coincidence: This possibility is eliminated by the statistical


probability laws. The consistency and frequency of the 19-based pattern is


much too overwhelming to occur coincidentally.





3) Human fabrication: While fabricating a literary work that meets the


criteria of the document summarized here is a stunning challenge for our


computer generation, it is certainly improbable for the time of initiation


of the document, namely, 610 AD. One more fact augments the improbability


of human fabrication. If a certain person or persons had fabricated this


literary work, they would want to reap the fruits of their efforts; they


would have bragged about it.





In view of the originality, complexity, and mathematical sophistication of


this work, we have to admit that it is ingenious. However, no one has ever


claimed credit for this unique literary code; the code was never known


prior to the computer decoding accomplished by Dr. Khalifa. Therefore it is


reasonable to exclude the possibility of human fabrication.





The timing of the discovery may be considered another evidence for the


existence and full control of Supreme Being: The mystery of the number 19


which is mentioned as "one of the greatest events" in the chapter 74 (The


Hidden Secret) was unveiled exactly 1406 (19x74) lunar years after the


revelation of the Quran. Dr. Khalifa discovered the code 19 in 1974. The


connection between 19 and 74 (the number of the chapter which this code is


mentioned) is significant in the timing of the discovery.





4. Super Intelligent Source: The only remaining possibility is that a super


intelligent source is responsible for this document; one who designed the


work in this extraordinary manner, then managed to keep it a well guarded


secret for 14 centuries, for a predetermined time.





The mathematical code ensures that the source is super intelligent and also


that the document is perfectly intact.





It is not a dream anymore





The following excerpts are from the famous astronomer and science-fiction


writer Carl Sagan's book:





"No, don't you see? This would be different. This isn't just starting the


universe out with some precise mathematical laws that determine physics and


chemistry. This is a message. Whoever makes the universe hides messages in


transcendental numbers so they'll be read fifteen billion years later when


intelligent life finally evolves. I criticized you and Rankin the time we


first met for not understanding this. 'If God wanted us to know that he


existed, why didn't he send us an unambiguous message?' I asked. Remember?"





"I remember very well. You think God is a mathematician."





"Something like that. If what we're told is true. If this isn't a


wild-goose chase. If there's a message hiding in pi and not one of the


infinity of other transcendental numbers. That's a lot of ifs."





"You're looking for Revelation in arithmetic. I know a better way."





"Palmer, this is the only way. This is the only thing that would convince a


skeptic. Imagine we find something. It doesn't have to be tremendously


complicated. Just something more orderly than could accumulate by chance


that many digits into pi. That's all we need. Then mathematicians all over


the world can find exactly the same pattern or message or whatever it


proves to be. Then there are no sectarian divisions. Everybody begins


reading the same Scripture. No one could then argue that the key miracle in


the religion was some conjurer's trick, or that later historians had


falsified the record, or that it's just hysteria or delusion or a


substitute parent for when we grow up. Everyone could be a believer." (Carl


Sagan, Contact, Simon %26amp; Schuster, New York, 1985, p 418-419)





Eerily, almost everything exactly has been happening according to Carl


Sagan's prediction with an exception that the code of the divine message is


not pi, it is a peculiar prime number. Also the last statement seems to be


too optimistic, at least for the time being. Already millions of Muslims


have rejected the mathematical code based on the presupposition that the


Creator of the universe won't employ mathematics in his book. And


born-again Christians are ready to coin it as Anti Christ.





However, this mathematically coded message promises a new era in the world


of religions. It does not only provide an examinable evidence for the


existence of God, it also expose the widespread corruption plagued all the


organized religions. This mathematical code suggests (as it is published in


our numerous books) a "Copernican revolution" in theology of religions.


Instead of Krishna-centered, or Jesus-centered, or Muhammad-centered


religions we must turn to the original center, to the God-centered model.





They cannot see the miracle





The "learned Muslim scholars" cannot understand or accept this clear


mathematical composition. Indeed, the verse 74:31 prophecies that


hypocrites will not be able to understand this miracle. Also the verse


7:146 describes those people who are deprived of seeing the miracle:





I will divert from My revelations those who are arrogant on earth, without


justification. Consequently, when they see every kind of miracle they will


not believe. And when they see the path of guidance they will not adopt it


as their path, but when they see the path of straying they will adopt it as


their path. This is the consequence of their rejecting our revelations, and


of being totally heedless thereof. (7:146)





a) Are all of those mathematical facts coincidences?





b) How many letters are there in the opening statement of the Quran i.e.,


Basmalah? Why do your ancient scholars (Fahreddin er Razi, Qurtubi etc.)


who counted the letters of Basmalah agree on 19 letters? Why after the


discovery of the miracle do you refute your respected ancient scholars?





c) 786 is the gematrical value of Basmalah used by Muslims to represent the


Basmalah. How many letters does this famous number represent?





d) Why do you fail in counting the 19 letters of Basmalah which is a very


simple and very obvious physical fact?





e) Almighty God in 74:31 gives us a list of functions of the number "19".


This is what "19" will do: 1) Disturb the disbelievers. 2) Establish


certainty in the hearts of the believers, the Jews, and the Christians,


concerning the divine origin of the Quran. 3) Strengthen the faith of the


faithful. 4) Remove all doubt from the hearts of the believers, and the


Jews, and the Christians. 5) Expose the hypocrites and the disbelievers who


claim with their lip service to be believers; they will not accept the


19-based miracle. The mathematical miracle of the Quran fulfills all these


functions one by one. The question to the Muslim scholars who reject God's


miracle is: How will the number 19 establish certainty in the hearts of


people? How will the number 19 remove all doubt from the people's heart?


How will the hypocrites be exposed? What are the functions of your 19?





f) The reason for your rejection of this great miracle has been explained


in 74:31; 7:146 and 6:25. Why do you not kill your ego, and purify your


heart?





g) How was the prophecy of 10:20; 27:93 %26amp; 41:53 fulfilled?





h) Is it not significant that the same 19-based mathematical composition


was discovered by Rabbi Judah in the 12th century AD in a preserved part of


the Old Testament? (See Studies In Jewish Mysticism, Association for Jewish


Studies, Cambridge, Mass., Joseph Dan, page 88, 1982).





i) What do you think about the Quranic prophecy on this discovery which


confirms the mathematical miracle of the scriptures?: "Proclaim: 'What if


it is from God, and you disbelieved in it? A witness from the Children of


Israel has borne witness to a similar phenomenon, and he has believed,


while you have turned too arrogant to believe. God does not guide the


wicked.' " (46:10).





j) What do A.L.M., HH.M., Y.S., Q. mean? Why is the Quranic expression


"These are the miracles --ayaat-- of this book" found ONLY in conjunction


with Quranic initials? (10:1; 12:1; 13:1; 15:1; 26:1-2; 27:1; 28:1-2;


32:1-2).














"A RELIGION NEVER AUTHORIZED BY GOD" (42:21)








The extent to which Islam has been corrupted is illustrated in the following:





In the paranthesis are some of the Chapter:Verse numbers that contradict


the traditional orthodox teaching.

Claiming that he cursed a child passing in front of him during prayer and


the child became crippled (3:159)

Claiming that Muhammad added an extra prohibition and abrogated the last


part of 4:24. (17:73-75; 69:40-47)





Changing the meaning of the Quranic words. (Such as nabi -prophet- %26amp; rasoul


-messenger-, ayat -miracle,sign- %26amp; ayaat -miracles, verses-). (5:41)

mathematical miracle. (1:1; 74:30-37)

The Mathematical Miracle of # 19 in the Quran! any truth to this?
There is absolutely nothing miraculous, nor does numerology prove the existence of your mythical sky deity...





I have also read the Bible Code, which purports to be a tool for reading the future.... Its all crap. You can do the same exact thing with the works of Shakespere, if you rewrite it into another language, then translate and count numbers, then divide numbers by other numbers and rotate 180*, slap your butt twice, twirl like Natalie Merchant in a 10000 Maniac's video, and ACTUALLY BELEIVE THIS CRAP......
