Subject: Rashad Khalifa's Mischief.
One Rashad Khalifa is the propounder of number 19 theory, the so-called secret numerical code of the Quran which has been published in book form separately from This code number 19 theory has already been refuted by Maulana Abdul Quddus Hashmi, a Pakistan religious scholar of international repute in his paper The Holy Quran and the figure of 19 in a pamphlet Publication No 58 captioned PROPAGANDA AGAINST ISLAM AND HOW TO COUNTER IT by Mohammad Samiullah (Available from Siddiqi Trust, Nasim Plaza, Nishter Road, Karachi5 Pakistan). Abu Ameenah Bilal
Philips, who embraced Islam has also dealt with the subject in his The Qurans Numerical Miracle: 19 Hoax and Heresy. Available from Abul Qasim Store, For a further study booklet THE QURAN AND THE FALLACY OF COMPUTER CONCOCTION may be obtained from Mujlisul Ulama of South Africa Post Box 3393 Khalifa is not an alim and as such not competent to translate the meaning of the glorious Quran. He has a Doctorate Degree in Chemistry and not in the Law of Islam or Shariah. There are even claims of some Muslims in the
The figure of 19 was sacred in old mythologies as in this figure are included the first unit of reckoning i.e. 1 and the last largest unit 9. An imposter Babk Khurami who was killed by his supporters in 223 AH propagated this notion. Unfortunately, 1st Edition of the pamphlet Al- Quran The Ultimate Miracle by Ahmad Deedat was published as far back as February 1979 by The Islamic Propagation Centre, At this time, the importance attached to the figure 19 in the context of the Holy Quran is the product of the missionary efforts of the Bahais (which has been included in the list of anti-Islamic movements by a Resolution of the Muslim World League). There are thousands of Bahais living in In the words of Dr. Muhammad Iqbal: Any religious society historically arising from the bosom of Islam, which claims a new prophethood for its basis, and declares all Muslims who do not recognize
the truth of its alleged revelation as Kafirs, must, therefore, be regarded by every Muslim as a serious danger to the solidarity of Islam. This must necessarily be so; since the integrity of Muslim society is secured by the idea of the Finality of Prophethood alone.
Islam is essentially a religious community with perfectly defined boundariesbelief in the Unity of God, belief in all the prophets and belief in the Finality of Mohammeds Prophethood (Allahs peace and blessings upon him). The last mentioned belief is really the factor which accurately draws the line of demarcation between Muslims and non-Muslims and enables one to decide whether a certain individual or group is a part of the community or not
.Russia offered tolerance to Babism (later Bahaism) and allowed the Babis (later Bahais) to open their first missionary center in Ishaqabad. Today there are centres of Bahais and Qadianis functioning inside the ZIONIST STATE OF
ISRAEL. | |||

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.}
(Holy Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
