Arabs dismissed from God's grace
Continued from page 2
A book sponsored by the Saudi Rabitat Al-‘Alam Al-Islamy was authored a few years ago by Brother Dr. Ahmad Sakr under the title “ISLAMIC ORATIONS.” Dr. Sakr is the former Director of the Rabitat office in New York. On page 209 (19x11) of his book, the subject “SEVEN EIGHTY SIX (786)” begins. The number 786 is famous throughout the Muslim world. Millions of Muslims write it at the top of their letters or notes, etc as a substitute for Basmalah. As shown from Dr. Abdul Rauf’s letter on Page 2, the number 786 represents the total numerical value of the Basmalah’s alphabet letters. The chapter entitled “Seven Eighty Six” in Dr. Sakr’s book deals with the numerical value of Basmalah. On Page 214, Dr. Sakr states: “Remember, dear Muslims, that if you read بسم الله الرحمن الرهيم which is composed of 19 letters,
|
you will be rewarded by Allah 190 times or 380 times accordingly.” Please note that, in addition to Dr. Sakr’s statement that Basmalah “consists of 19 letters,” the numbers of rewards that he lists (190 & 380) are multiples of 19.
But there is no greater sign of confusion on the part of the great Arab scholars than the fact that they thanked me at the beginning of their report (see the photocopy on Page 2), then called me kafir, accusing me of disbelief and apostasy towards the end of the report!!!!! 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 scholars are doing a better job at keeping the people away from it.
I have to quote here Brother Abdul Aziz Kassim of Singapore: “A lot of people (including the learned) reject the miracle of 19 even 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, we can invite them, those of weak faith, we can help them, the Jews and the Christians we can invite them and those who have gone astray we have the opportunity to bring them back. Have they (the scholars) ever considered these benefits? What is wrong with them?”
P.S.: AMONG THE MILLIONS OF BELIEVERS IN THE QUR’AN’S MATHEMATICAL MIRACLE, THERE IS NOT A SINGLE ARAB. |
