of the
Authorized
English translation of the Quran by
Dr.
Rashad Khalifa
God's Messenger of the Covenant
| God's Messenger of the Covenant
is a consolidating messenger. His mission is to purify and unify all existing
religions into one: Islam (Submission).
Islam is NOT a name; it is a description of one's total submission and
devotion to God ALONE, without idolizing Jesus, Mary, Muhammad, or the saints.
Anyone who meets this criterion is a "Muslim" (Submitter). Therefore, one
may be a Muslim Jew, a Muslim Christian, a Muslim Hindu, a Muslim Buddhist,
or Muslim Muslim.
God's Messenger of the Covenant delivers God's proclamation that "The
only religion approved by God is Submission"
(3:19) and that
"Anyone who seeks other than Submission as a religion, it will not be accepted
from him/her"
(3:85).
A messenger of God must present proof that he is God's messenger. Every
messenger of God is supported by incontrovertible divine signs proving that
he is authorized by the Almighty to deliver His messages. Moses threw down
his staff and it turned into a serpent, Jesus healed the leprous and revived
the dead by God's leave, Saaleh's sign was the famous camel, Abraham walked
out of the fire, and Muhammad's miracle was the Quran
(29:50-51).
The Quran
(3:81,
33:7,
33:40) and the
Bible (Malachi
3:1-3) have prophesied
the advent of the consolidating messenger, God's Messenger of the Covenant.
It is only befitting that a messenger with such a crucial mission must be
supported by the most powerful miracle
(74:30-35).
While the miracles of previous messengers were limited in time and place,
God's miracle supporting His Messenger of the Covenant is perpetual; it can
be witnessed by anyone, at anytime, in any place.
This Appendix presents physical, examinable, verifiable, and irrefutable
evidence that Rashad Khalifa is God's Messenger of the Covenant. |
A Quranic Truth
One of the major prophecies in the Quran is that God's Messenger of the Covenant
will be sent after all the prophets have come to this world, and after all
of God's scriptures have been delivered.
| " God took a covenant
from the prophets, saying, "I will give you the scripture and wisdom. Afterwards,
a messenger will come to confirm all existing scriptures. You shall believe
in him and support him." He said, "Do you agree with this, and pledge to
fulfill this covenant?" They said, "We agree." He said, "You have thus borne
witness, and I bear witness along with you." |
Muhammad Marmaduke Pickthall translated 3:81 as follows:
| " When Allah made (His)
covenant with the Prophets, (He said): Behold that which I have given you
of the Scripture and knowledge. And afterward there will come unto you a
messenger, confirming that which ye possess. Ye shall believe in him and
ye shall help him. He said: Do ye agree, and will ye take up My burden (which
I lay upon you) in this (matter)? They answered: We agree. He said: Then
bear witness. I will be a witness with you. " |
We learn from Sura 33 that Muhammad was one of the prophets who made that
solemn covenant with God.
| "And when we exacted a
covenant from the Prophets, and from thee (O Muhammad) and from Noah and
Abraham and Moses and Jesus son of Mary, We took from them a solemn covenant.
"(33:7) (according to Muhammad Marmaduke Pickthall) |
Verse
3:81, among
many other verses, provides the definitions of "Nabi" (Prophet) and "Rasoul"
(Messenger). Thus, "Nabi" is a messenger of God who delivers a new scripture,
while "Rasoul" is a messenger commissioned by God to confirm existing scripture;
he does not bring a new scripture. According to the Quran, every "Nabi" is
a "Rasoul," but not every "Rasoul" is a "Nabi."
Not every messenger was given a new scripture. It is not logical that God
will give a scripture to a prophet, then ask him to keep it exclusively for
himself, as stated by some Muslim "scholars"
( 2:42,
146,
159). Those
who are not sufficiently familiar with the Quran tend to think that Aaron
was a "Nabi," as stated in
19:53, who did
not receive a scripture. However, the Quran clearly states that the Torah
was given specifically "to both Moses and Aaron"
(21:48,
37:117).
We learn from the Quran,
33:40, that
Muhammad was the last prophet (Nabi), but not the last messenger (Rasoul):
| "Muhammad was not the
father of any of your men; he was a messenger (Rasoul) of God and the last
prophet (Nabi)." [
33:40 ] |
This crucial definition is confirmed by the Quran's mathematical code. The
expression used in
33:40, "Muhammad
Khaatum Al-Nabiyyeen" (the last prophet) has a gematrical value of 1276.
If we add this number to 33 and 40, the sura and the verse number, we get
1349 (19x71), while the value of the erroneous expression "Muhammad Khaatum
Al-Mursaleen (the last messenger)" does not produce a multiple of 19.
From time immemorial, it has been a human trait to reject a contemporary,
living messenger. Joseph was declared "the last messenger"
( 40:34). Yet,
many messengers came after him, including Moses, David, Solomon, Jesus, and
Muhammad.
The Covenant Fulfilled
Although the prophets are dead, as far as this world is concerned, we know
that their souls, the real persons, are now in the Garden of Eden where Adam
& Eve lived. Several verses enjoin us from thinking that the believers
who shed their bodies and departed this world are dead
( 2:154,
3:169,
4:69). Although
they cannot come back to our world
(23:100), they
are "alive" in Paradise. Please see
Appendix 17.
During my Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca, and before sunrise on Tuesday, Zul-Hijjah
3, 1391, December 21, 1971, I, Rashad Khalifa, the soul, the real person,
not the body, was taken to some place in the universe where I was introduced
to all the prophets as God's Messenger of the Covenant. I was not informed
of the details and true significance of this event until Ramadan 1408.
What I witnessed, in sharp consciousness, was that I was sitting still, while
the prophets, one by one, came towards me, looked at my face, then nodded
their heads. God showed them to me as they had looked in this world, attired
in their respective mode of dress. There was an atmosphere of great awe,
joy, and respect.
Except for Abraham, none of the prophets was identified to me. I knew that
all the prophets were there, including Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, Aaron, David,
Noah, and the rest. I believe that the reason for revealing Abraham's identity
was that I asked about him. I was taken aback by the strong resemblance he
had with my own family - myself, my father, my uncles. It was the only time
that I wondered, "Who is this prophet who looks like my relatives?" The answer
came: "Abraham." No language was spoken. All communication was done mentally.
It is noteworthy that the date of this fulfillment of the prophets' covenant
was Zul-Hijja 3, 1391. If we add the month (12), plus the day (3), plus the
year (1391), we get a total of 1406, 19x74. Sura 74 is where the Quran's
common denominator, the number 19, is mentioned. Note that the number 1406
is also the number of years from the revelation of the Quran to the revelation
of its miracle ( Appendix
1).
The mission of God's Messenger of the Covenant is to confirm existing scriptures,
purify them, and consolidate them into one divine message. The Quran states
that such a messenger is charged with restoring God's message to its pristine
purity, to lead the righteous believers - Jews, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists,
Sikhs, Hindus, and others - out of darkness into the light
( 5:19 &
65:11). He is
to proclaim that Islam (total submission to God) is the only religion acceptable
by God (3:19).
| "Lo, I am sending my messenger
to prepare the way before me; and suddenly there will come to the temple
the Lord whom you seek and the messenger of the covenant whom you desire.
Yes, he is coming, says the Lord of hosts. But who will endure the day of
his coming? And who can stand when he appears? For he is like the refiner's
fire, or like the fuller's lye." [Malachi 3:1-2] |
The Proof
The name of God's Messenger of the Covenant is mathematically coded into
the Quran as "Rashad Khalifa." This is certainly the most appropriate method
of introducing God's messenger to the world in the computer-age.
(1) As shown in
Appendix
1, God's great miracle in the Quran is based on the prime number 19,
and it remained hidden for 1406 years (19x74). This awesome miracle was
predestined by Almighty God to be unveiled through Rashad Khalifa. Hundreds
of Muslim and Orientalist scholars during the last 14 centuries have tried
in vain, but none of them was permitted to decipher the significance of the
Quranic Initials.
(2) The Quran is made easy
for the sincere believers
and seekers
(54:17, 22,
32,
40 &
39:28).
It is an irre-
vocable divine law that no
one is permitted access to
the Quran, let alone its
great miracle, unless he or
she is a sincere believer
who is given specific divine
authorization
(17:45-46,
18:57,
41:44,
56:79). The
unveiling of the Quran's
miracle through Rashad
Khalifa is a major sign of
his messengership.
(3) The root word of the
name "Rashad" is "Rashada "
(to uphold the right
guidance). This root word
is mentioned in the Quran
19 times. Nineteen is the
Quran's common denominator
(see INDEX TO THE WORDS
OF QURAN, First Printing,
Page 320).
(4) The word "Rashad" occurs in
40:29 &
38. The word "Khalifa"
occurs in
2:30
and
38:26. The
first
"Khalifa" refers to a non-human
"Khalifa," namely, Satan, while
the second occurrence (Sura 38),
refers to a human "Khalifa." If we
add the numbers of suras and verses
of "Rashad"
(40:29, 38)
and
"Khalifa"
(38:26)
we get 40+29+38+38+26 = 171 = 19x9. |

(5) The sum of all sura and verse numbers where all "Rashada" and all "Khalifa"
occur, without discrimination, add up to 1463, 19x77 (Table 1).
(6) The total of all suras and verses
where the root word "Rashada"
occurs is 1369, or (19x72)+1,
while the total for all occurrences
of "Khalifa" is 94, (19x5)-1.
The fact that "Rashada" is up by one
and "Khalifa" is down by one
pins down the name as
"Rashad Khalifa," and not
any "Rashad" or any
"Khalifa."
(7) The gematrical value
of "Rashad" is 505 and the
value of "Khalifa" is 725
(Table 7,
Appendix 1).
If
we add the value of "Rashad
Khalifa" (1230) to the sura
numbers, and the number of
verses, from the beginning of
the Quran to the first
occurrence of "Rashada,"
the total is 1425, 19x75.
The details are given
in Table 2. |

|
Also, "Rashad" (505) + "Khalifa (725)
+ Sura Total (3) + Total of Verses
(192) = 1425 (19x75)
505 + 725 + 3 + 192 = 1425 = 19x75 |
|
|
(8) If we add the numbers of all the verses in every sura, i.e., the sum
of verse numbers (1+2+3+ ...+n) from the beginning of the Quran to the first
occurrence of the root word "Rashada," the total comes to 17233, 19x907(Table
2).
(9) The Quranic Initials constitute
basic foundation of the Quran's
miracle. These initials occur in
suras 2, 3, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14,
15, 19, 20, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31,
32, 36, 38, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45,
46, 50, and 68. If we add the sum
of these numbers (822) to the value
of "Rashad Khalifa" (1230), the
total is 2052, 19x108.
(10) As shown in Table 3, if we add
the numbers of all suras where the
root word "Rashada" occurs, plus the
number of verses, we get 1368, or
(11) If we write down the sura number,
followed by the number of verses per
sura, followed by the individual verse
numbers, from the first occurrence of
the root word "Rashada"
(2:186) to
the
last occurrence of "Rashada"
(72:21),
and place these numbers next to each |

other, we get a very long number that consists of 11087 digits, and is a
multiple of 19. This very long number begins with the number of Sura 2, followed
by the number of verses in Sura 2 from the first occurrence of "Rashada"
at verse 186 to the end of the sura (100 verses). Thus, the beginning of
the number looks like this: 2 100. The numbers
of these 100 individual verses (187 to 286) are placed next to this number.
Thus, the number representing Sura 2 looks like this: 2 100 187 188 189 .....
285 286. The same process is carried out all the way to
72:21, the last
occurrence of the root "Rashada." The complete number looks like this:
2 100 187 188 189 ..... 72 21 1 2 3 ..... 19 20 21
The Sura number is followed by the number of verses, then the numbers of
individual verses, from the first to the last occurrence of "Rashada"
( 2:187 through
72:21) The complete
number consists of 11087 digits, and is divisible by 19.
(12) If we examine the suras and verses from the first occurrence of the
root word "Rashada" to the word "Khalifa" in
38:26, we find
that the sum of sura numbers and their numbers of verses is 4541, or 19x239.
The details are in Table 4.
(13) When we write down the value
of "Rashad" (505), followed by the
value of "Khalifa" (725), followed
by every sura number where the root
word "Rashada" occurs, followed by
the numbers of its verses, from the
first "Rashada"
(2:186) to the
word
"Khalifa"
(38:26), we
get a long
number that is divisible by 19.
The first occurrence of "Rashada"
is in
2:186.
So, we write down
2 186. The second occurrence is in
2:256, so we
write down 256. The
next occurrence is in
4:6, so we
write down 4 6, and so on, until we
write down 38 26 ("Khalifa" occurs
The complete number looks

The Only Religion Approved by God is Islam
[3:19]
(14) The Quran specifies three messengers of Islam (Submission): Abraham
delivered all the practices of Islam. The value of his name = 258 Muhammad
delivered the Quran. The value of his name = 92 Rashad delivered Islam's
proof of authenticity. The value of his name = 505 Total gematrical value
of the 3 names = 258+92+505 = 855. (19x45) The true Judaism, Christianity,
and Islam will be consolidated into one religion - complete submission and
absolute devotion to God ALONE. The existing religions, including Judaism,
Christianity, and Islam are severely corrupted and will simply die out
( 9:33,
48:28,
61:9).
(15) Since the Quran sometimes refers to "Abraham, Ismail, and Isaac," it
was suggested that Ismail and Isaac should be included. Remarkably, the addition
of Ismail and Isaac gave a total that is still a multiple of 19. As shown
in Table 5, the new total is 1235, or 19x65. This divisibility by 19 is not
possible if any of the 3 names Abraham, Muhammad, or Rashad is omitted.
Why 81: Verse 81 & Sura 81
(16) God's Messenger of the
Covenant is prophesied in
Verse 81 of Sura 3. The addition
of the gematrical value of
"Rashad" (505),
plus the gematrical value of
"Khalifa" (725), plus the Verse
number (81), produces 505 + 725
+ 81 = 1311 = 19x69.
(17) If we look at Sura 81, we
read about a messenger of
God who is powerfully
supported and authorized
by the Almighty (Verse 19).
Thus, Verse 81 of Sura 3,
and Sura 81, Verse 19 are strongly
connected with the name "Rashad
Khalifa" 505 + 725 + 81 = 1311
= 19x69 |

(18) If we add the sura numbers
plus the number of verses from the
beginning of the Quran to Verse
3:81, where the
Messenger of the
Covenant is prophesied, the total
comes to 380, 19x20. These data are
in Table 6.
(19) The gematrical value of Verse
3:81 is 13148,
19x692. This value
is obtained by adding the gematrical
values of every letter in the verse. |

(20) If we look at that portion of Verse
3:81 which refers
specifically to the messenger of the Covenant: "A messenger will come
to you, confirming what you have," in Arabic:
"JAA'AKUM RASOOLUN MUSADDIQUN LEMAA MA`AKUM"
we find that the gematrical value of this key phrase is 836, 19x44.
"Surely, You Are One of the Messengers"
(36:3)
(21) I was told most assertively, through the angel Gabriel, that
Verse 3 of Sura 36
refers specifically to me. If we arrange the initialed suras only, starting
with Sura 2, then Sura 3, then Sura 7, and so on, we find that Sura 36, Ya
Seen, occupies position number 19.
(22) Verse 3 of Sura 36 says, "Surely, you are one of the messengers." The
gematrical value of this phrase is 612. By adding this value (612), plus
the sura number (36), plus the verse number (3), plus the gematrical value
of "Rashad Khalifa" (505+725), we get 36+3+612+505 +725 = 1881 = 19x99.
(23) Sura 36 consists of 83 verses. If we add the sura number (36), plus
its number of verses (83), plus the gematrical value of "Rashad Khalifa"
(505+725), we get 36+83+505+725 = 1349 = 19x71.
(24) From
3:81, where the
Messenger
of the Covenant is prophesied, to.
Sura 36, there are 3330 verses. By
adding the value of "Rashad Khalifa"
(1230), to this number of verses (3330),
we get 505+725+3330 = 4560, 19x240.
(25) From
3:81
to
36:3 there
are 3333
verses. By adding this number to the
gematrical value of "Rashad" (505),
we get 3333+505 = 3838 = 19x202.
(26) The number of verses from
1:1 to
36:3 is 3705,
19x195 (Table 7).
(27) The sum of verse numbers of every
sura from
1:1
to
36:3
is 257925, 19x13575 (Table 7). |

(28) The sum of sura numbers from
Sura 1 to Sura 36 is 666 (Table 7).
If we add this sum to the gematrical
value of "Rashad Khalifa" (505+725),
plus the gematrical value of verse
36:3
"Surely, you are one of the messengers,"
(612), the total is:
666+505+725+612=2508= 19x132.
(29) If we add the sum of verse numbers
(1+2+3+ ...+n) from the first occurrence
of the root word "Rashada"
(2:186) to
36:3
(You are one of the messengers) to the total
of suras (35), plus the sura numbers themselves,
the total is 241395, or 19x12705³ (Table 8).
(30) The sum of sura numbers from the the
first occurrence of the root word "Rashada"

"A Messenger to the People of the Scripture"
(Jews, Christians, and Muslims)
"O people of the scripture, our messenger has come
to you, to clarify things for you, after a long period
without messengers. Lest you say,
"No preacher or warner has come to us."
A preacher and warner has come to you.
God is Omnipotent.
"[5:19]
(31) Obviously, the number of this verse is 19, the Quran's common denominator
discovered by Rashad, and the number of occurrences of "Rashada" in the Quran.
(32) If we add the value of "Rashad Khalifa" (1230), plus the sura number
(5), plus the verse number (19), we get 1230+5+19 = 1254 = 19x66.
(33) The sum of the sura numbers and the
number of verses from the beginning of
the Quran to this verse
(5:19) is 703,
19x37. See Table 9.
(34) Sura 98, "The Proof," Verse 2,
proclaims the advent of God's Messenger
of the Covenant for the benefit of "The
People of the Scripture (Jews, Christians,
and Muslims)." By adding the gematrical
value of "Rashad Khalifa" (505+725) to
the sura number (98), plus the verse
number (2), we get: 505 + 725 + 98 + 2 =
1330 = 19x70. |

"Those who disbelieved among the people of the scripture
(Jews, Christians, Muslims), and the idolators, will not
believe, despite the profound sign given to them.
[98:1]
A messenger from God, reciting Sacred Scriptures.
"[98:2]
(35) It is noteworthy that the word "Bayyinah," which means "Profound Sign,"
and is the title of Sura 98, occurs in the Quran 19 times. This is another
mathematical confirmation that the Quran's proof of divine authorship is
based on the prime number 19, and that "Rashad Khalifa" is the messenger
in
98:2.
A Profound Messenger Has Come
[44:13]
(36) By adding the sura numbers,
plus the number of verses in each sura,
from the
1:1 to
44:13, the total
comes to
5415, 19x19x15 (Table 10).
(37) The sum of the sura number (44)
plus the number of the verse where the
messenger is predicted (13) equals 57,
19x3. See Table 10.
END OF THE WORLD
(38) God is the only Knower of the future;
He knows exactly when this world will end
(7:187,
31:34,
33:63,
41:47,
43:85). We
learn
from the Quran that God reveals certain aspects
of the future to His chosen messengers.
In
Appendix 25,
evidence is presented that
Rashad Khalifa was blessed with unveiling the
End of the World, in accordance with
72:27.
(39) The number of verses from the beginning
of the Quran to Verse
72:27 is 5472,
or 19x72x4.
Note that the messenger who is given information
about the future in
72:27, and that
this sura contains
4 "Rashada" words
(72:2,
10,
14, &
21). By
adding the value of "Rashad Khalifa" (1230),
plus the sura number (72), plus the numbers of
the 4 verses where "Rashada" is mentioned,
we get 1230+72+2+10+14+21 = 1349 = 19x71.
(40) Verse
72:27
begins with the statement:
(Only the Messenger that He chooses).
This reference to the messenger who is
chosen by God to receive news about the
future has a gematrical value of 1919.
Table 11 presents the data.
HOW TO DISTINGUISH . GOD'S
MESSENGER FROM A FAKE MESSENGER
The Quran provides straightforward criteria
to distinguish the true messengers of God
from the false messengers:
[1] God's messenger advocates the worship
of God ALONE, and the abolition of all
forms of idol worship.
[2] God's messenger never asks for a wage
for himself.
[3] God's messenger is given divine,
incontrovertible proof of his messengership.
Anyone who claims to be God's messenger,
and does not meet the three minimum criteria
listed above is a false claimant. |

| The most important difference
between God's messenger and a fake messenger is that God's messenger is supported
by God, while the fake messenger is not:
* God's messenger is supported by God's invisible soldiers
(3:124-126,
9:26 &
40,
33:9,
37:171-173,
48:4 & 7,
74:31).
* God's messenger is supported by God's treasury
(63:7-8).
* God's messenger, as well as the believers, are guaranteed victory and dignity,
in this world and forever
(40:51 &
58:21).
Thus, the truthfulness of God's messenger invariably prevails, while the
falsehood of a fake messenger invariably, sooner or later, is exposed. |
PRINCIPAL DUTIES OF GOD'S
MESSENGER OF THE COVENANT
As stated in the Quran,
3:81, God's Messenger
of the Covenant shall confirm all the scriptures, which were delivered by
all the prophets, and restore them to their original purity.
MERCY FROM GOD
[21:107]
When the believers are faced with a problem, they develop a number of possible
solutions, and this invariably leads to considerable bickering, disunity,
and disarray. We learn from
2:151,
3:164, and
21:107 that
it is but mercy from God that He sends to us messengers to provide the final
solutions to our problems. We learn from
42:51 that God
sends His messengers to communicate with us, and to disseminate new information.
Hence the strong injunction in
4:65, 80 to accept,
without the slightest hesitation, the teachings delivered to us through God's
messengers.
The following is a list of the principal duties of God's Messenger of the
Covenant:
1. Unveil and proclaim the Quran's
mathematical miracle
(Appendix 1).
2. Expose and remove the two false verses
9:128-129 from
the Quran (Appendix
24).
3. Explain the purpose of our lives; why we are here
(Appendix 7).
4. Proclaim one religion for all the people, and point out and purge away
all the corruptions afflicting Judaism, Christianity, and Islam
(Appendices 13,
15,
19).
5. Proclaim that Zakat (obligatory charity) is a prerequisite for redemption
(7:156), and
explain the correct method of observing Zakat
(Appendix 15).
6. Unveil the end of the world
(Appendix 25).
7. Proclaim that those who die before the age of 40 go to Heaven
(Appendix 32).
8. Explain Jesus' death
(Appendix 22).
9. Explain the Quran's delivery to, then through Muhammad
(Appendix 28).
10. Announce that Muhammad wrote God's revelations (the Quran) with his own
hand (Appendix
28).
11. Explain why most believers in God do not make it to Heaven
(Appendix 27).
12. Proclaim that God never ordered Abraham to kill his son
(Appendix 9).
13. Proclaim the secret of perfect happiness
(Introduction,
xx).
14. Establish a criminal justice system
(Appendix 37).
