In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful SUBMISSION PERSPECTIVE Monthly Bulletin of United Submitters International *** Proclaiming the only religion acceptable to God Safar 1410 September 1989 [ No 57} Editor: Rashad Khalifa, Ph.D. Editorial Why the name change? The name of chis bulletin is now SUB- MISSION PERSPECTIVE instead of MUSLIM PERSPECTIVE. This marks the advent of momentous changes and ushers in a new era of unification. Henceforth, all believers who devote their worship to the One True God ALONE will join forces under the banner of "One True Religion" (Quran 2:62; 3:19, 85, 113; 5:69). This is not simply a new bright idea of a human being or a collection of humans; this is a divine plan destined for in- -клаві- інелёсной - Зой її icauti the hearts of all believers receptive. The Most Merciful has sent His Messenger of the Covenant now to deliver God's mes- sage of unification and purification (Malachi 3:1, Quran 3:81). I am sending My messenger to prepare the way before me; the Messenger of the Corenant But who will endure the day of his coming? And who can stand when he appears. For he Is like the refiners fire, or like the fuller's lye. Ile will sit refining and purifying [Malachi 3:1-8] God look a coverant from the prophets: "I will give you the Scripture and wisdom, then a messenger will come after you confirming your message. You shall believe in him and support him..." (Quran 3:81) One of the most important items on the unification agenda is the name of God's people; the unified believers. The words "Muslim" and "Islam" are NOT names; they are Arabic words meaning "Submit- ter" and "Submission," respectively. When Noah, Abraham, Solomon, and even the jinns talked about "Islam" and "Muslim" they did not speak in Arabic; they used their own languages. Please read these verses: 2:131; 7:126; 10:72; 22:78; 27:31,42; 28:53; 72:14. When Jesus' disciples stated that they were "Mus- Results of Continued Research HISTORY OF THE FALSE VERSES 9:128-129 The truth prevails, even between the lines of false doctrine. The Nicene Doctrine (circa 300 AD) has attempted to con- foundthe truthabout Jesus Christand his message, but the truth still prevails: The Lord our God Is one God! You shall wor. ship the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. (Mark 12:29 ) The truth still prevails throughout the four canonized Gospels. John 20:17 still providims cicariy i has Jesus was no, Suri, nor son of God, nor a third of a trinity. Jesusthen said, "Goto my brothers and tell them, 'i am ascending lo my lam Father and your Father, to my God and your God!" A [John 20:17] SUBMITTER Enlightened Christian scholars, such as (1) TO GOD ALONE Don Cupitt, University Lecturer in Divinity and Dean of Em- manuel College, Cambridge, (2) Michael Goulder, Staff Happiness is submission to God. Tutor in Theology at Birmingham University, (3) John Hick, Professor of Theology at Birmingham University, (4) Leslie Houlden, Principal of Ripon College, Cuddesdon, UK, (5) Dennis Nineham, Warden of Keble Col- lege, Oxord, (6) Maurice Wiles, Profes- sor of Divinity and Canon of Christ Church, Oxford, and Chairman of the Church of England's Doctrine Commis- sion, and (7) Frances Young, Lecturer in New Testament Studies, Birmingham University, have reached the truth by scrutinizing the Christian Scriptures as they exist today. After many years of careful study, these outstanding scholars have concluded that "Jesus was (as he is presented in Acts 2:21) 'a man approved by God' for a spe- cial role within the divine purpose..." (see THE MYTH OF GOD INCARNATE, Westminster Press, Philadelphia, 1977). Invariably, those who idolize Jesus against his will rely on round-about, in- direct statements that must be remotely 1 tied to a far-fetched conclusion. In my frequent encounters with idol-wor- shipers, be they Muslim or Christian, I ask them to show me one, just one, directverse in the Gospels stating that Jesus was ment that the name of Muhammad must be men- tioned alongside God's name, but they haven't come up with one yer. On the other hand, the Gospels, and the Quran replete with are straightforward verses stating the truth (see Mat- thew 7:21-23, 27:46; Mark 10:17-18. 15:34; John 11:41-42; Quran 3:18, 39:44- 45, 47:19). The truth invariably peeks through the falsehood, then prevails (Quran 17:S1). When early Mohamedans attempted to tamper with the Quran by adding the false verses 9:128-129, God's law of per- fect preservation of the Quran neces- sitated incontrovertible exposure of such an attempt (see Appendix 24 in my new translation of the Quran). (Continued on Page 2) lims," they did not say it Arabic (3:52). A Christian Arab is called "Nusraany" in Arabic. Yet, we do not use this Arabic word when we speak English. It has been Satan's plan to transform these "descrip- tions" into "names" then to give "Islam" and the "Muslims" a bad name. We have now mobilized to pull the rug from under Satan's feet.a
History (Continued from Page 1) In this article. I present documentation that the truth bas pecked through the various historical ac- counts reiate: io the id verses 9:1:8-129. I am Photocopy from AL ITQAAN, Page 28 reproducing here iwo rclarant statements from the ciassic releranco AL-ITQAAN by Al-Suyooty, (Al-Azharcyah Edition, Cairo, 1318 AH, Vol 1). On Page 28, we see that the first attempt to add the false verses occurred immediately after the Prophet's death. This is confirmed on Page 59. We rcad on Page 3S: Abdullah Ibn Ahmad narrated In MI'SAD and IBN MARDAWAll that Libaty Ibn Ka'ab scaled replied that "something has been added to the Ouran," and he had pledged "never to dress up except for the prayers, until the Quran is restored." Thus, the first attempt to add the false verses oc- curred immediately after the Prophet's death. Abu Bakr, Omar, and Ali defeated that attempt, but the perpetrators never gaye up; they finally succeeded was ap- pointed a Khalifa, and the need arose to make copics from the original Quran for dispatch to the new Muslim lands. The details of this blasphemy are reported in Appendix 24 of the new translation, and in past issues of the PERSPECTIVE Thus, the history of the great blaspbemy of adding false verses to the Quran is unveiled, through the even Mohamedans' own literature..a that the Quran was compiled during the srign of Abu Bakr. and when the scribes reached Verse 9:127: "alhen they lell with their hearts direrted by God For they were people who did not com- prehend." the scribes decided that that was the last of the revelation Bur Lbayy told them that he had Photocops from the same reference, Page 59 to more verses, 9: 128 & 129, and that ibey were the last resses revealed in Medina. On Page 59, we read that Ali imposed a house arrest upon himself when Abu Bakr was installed. Abu Bakr asked Ali if he obiccied to his appointment. Ali said RESEARCH by Edip Yiskse! One of the oldest copies of the Quran is found in the Sulaymaniya Library of Is. tanbul. Written in Kuli style on decr leather, it is reported to be the personal copy of Ali Ibn Abi Taalcb. In my search for the first appearance of the false verses 9:125-122, I wanted to look at this oldest Кпонт copy. I found the book under the number "Fatih 18," and Sura 9 was therc. Huwever, the last three pages of Sura? QUESTION by Ismail Barakat The Mohamedans adamantly hold on to the false verses 9:128-129 despite over- whelming evidence that they do not belong in the Quran. They claim that dis- covering the false verses contradicts the divine pledge to preserve the Quran! Thus, they feel that the Quran is the ink and paper that make up a physical book titled "Quran." Let me then ask them a question: "You recognize iwo differens versions of the Quran - the Hafs Version and the Warsh Version. And you claim that falschood cannot enter the ink and paper titled Quran. Which version, Hafs or Warsh, is false? Which is the correct one? How did the false version happen?? REAL BELIEVERS To recognize the real believers, we need only reflect upon the Prophet's history. Hepreached the Quran secretly for three years. When his message became public, the idol worshipers persecuted Muham. mad and his followers-they insulted them, called them stupid fools (2:13), boycotted them, banished them from Mecca for 3 years, stoned the Prophet, chased the believers to Ethiopia, then tried to kill the Prophet; he had to flee to Medina. Such were the real believers. The same is happening today with God's messenger of the Covenant. The Quran denounces the imitation of one's parents. Most of thosc who believe that Muham- mad was God's messenger, because of thir parents, are in fact disbelievers.a were conspicuously torn Through Gabriel: I was commanded to make this announcement: out.

WHAT WISDOM! A new magazine named FURQAN has come out of Kuwait, under the editorial supervision of the notorious Shaykh Bin Baz of Saudi Arabia. On page 61 of issue No. 4, we read the following advice concerning the problem of lack of concentration during the con- tact prayers (Sular): FURQAN states that the Prophet said in a Hadith that this problem is due to a devil named "Khan- zab." To get rid of Khanzab, you must look at your left side before you start the "I seek refuge in God brayer, and say, rom you, Khanzab." Then you must spil (bree times over your left shoulder!! There you have it from the Prophet him- self!!! But I wonder: does Khanzab exist everywhere? And what if the person standing to my left in the prayer is bigger than me; do I still spit three times? THE CHALLENGE CONTINUES Since my divinely commanded an- nouncement in May 1988 that 1 am God's messenger of the Covenant (3:81), I have presented hundreds of incontrovertible mathematical and Quranic proofs in sup- port of my messengership. In ibe February 1989 issue of the Perspective, I challenged the disbelievers to "GIVE ME ONE GOOD REASON" (19 ler- ters) why I could not be God's mes- In a letter dated July 9, 1989, Mr. Sabah El-Deen Karam, President of the Austin (Texas) Mosque, sent what he believes to be (wo good reasons. According to bim, verses 21:107 and 17:15 prove that "neitber you, nor anyone else could be God's messenger because (bat mes- senger to all mankind, that final mes- senger would be followed by the ultimate retribution viz Day of Resurrection. It is obvious that Day has not come yet."!!! Mr. Karam adds: "Also concerning tbe ront words of Rashad and Khalija occus- ring in the Quran in multiples of 19, you probably have not observed that the roos of every word in the Quran occurs in multiples of 19! So it is true of every Muslim name as it is true for gours." I immediately checked the rook word of Mr. Karam, and I found that tbe root of his first name "Sabah" occurs 45 times, nol a multiple of 19. The root of his last name "Karam" ocurs 48 times, not a mul- tiple of 19. Even bis middle name "Deen" occurs 94 times, not a multiple of 13. 1 guess his name is not a Muslim name. Thus, the challenge continues. I am still waiting. BELIEVERS FROM EVERY CORNER OF THE WORLD Letters from every corner of the globe continue to pour in and make my day every day. It is extremely beartening to see true believers, truly blessed by the Almighty, coming from all walks of life, from all corners of the world. From Nigeria Dear Messenger of God: May Allah bless and guide you. From your books, journals, and publications which I have read I am fully convinced that you are indeed the messenger of Allah (SWT). Of course it would be very difficult for the traditional muslims to accept most of the things you write or say. This is because they have been taught the wrong Shahadah, the wrong way to per- form the contact prayers (Salat), the wrong way to perform the ablution, and were taught to idolize the Prophet against his will. They were laught many other things that are completely inconsistent with the Quran. I used to belong to the traditionalists' group but God out of His infinite mercy and wisdom has shown me the true guidance and light. Alhamdu Lillah. Allahu Akbar. From Australia It is now official: Mohamedans Claim: Two Books of God; Quran & Hadith!!! Dear Brother Rashad: I have just been told that I have been banned from visiting the Muslim Con- verts Association of Singapore FOR LIFE. The committe has had an emer- gency meeting and came to that decision. In Singapore, seemingly the world capital of Hadithists, theyare re-publishing "The Mischief of Rejection of Hadith." ... couldn't believe il. According to the Hadithists - it is official - we now have 2 books of God - QURAN & HADITH. Strange as it may seem this claim appears on Page 38 (19x2). Quote: "The word of the Prophet is also the word of God. Hence, both are words of God: the Quran and the Hadith of the Prophet." From all of this, it would appear that the raving Hadithists are now caught be- ween a rock and a hard place. They are faced with hundreds of Ahadith that are indecent or far ferched. This mears that all Ahadith are acceptable (no matter bow far fetched) as they believe ibem to be the word of God, equal in status to Quran itself. But the worst Hadithiss claim is yer to come. Quote: "Now what remains to be proved is that even if the word of the Prophet (peace eic) is opposed lo the Quran. it is still HUIJAT." Peter Green From Switzerland Dear Rashad: Many warm thanks for the July Perpec. live. The article of Feroz Karmally, "A Time to Reflect," was very good. It is of paramount importance that these facts are printed out. once and for all, in such a clear and logic way. I am so very happ: to be a true believer in the Quran, and in the messengership of Rashad Khalifa, which is indisputable, beyond any doubt. I thank God frequently for haring zuided me in this path.

Iromically, e so-called Muslims have made it a adition to recite this particular sura for ie dead. In the so-called Muslim Juntries, even Muslims who never open :e Quran once in their life know that ura Ya Seen is the Sura for the dead. ccording to Hadith and Sunna, this ura which describes Quran as a warning i the living, has been dedicated for the zad! Great Discoveries by Arabs : magazine named "Iqra Annual" pub- shed by Sunni Arabs, in its Ramadan 189 issue declared war against the Mes- inger of God: "...We dedicate the cover I this IQRA ANNUAL issue lo the neme of UNITY' : unity of the Ummah gainst all forms of evil, injustice, oppres- on and hypocricy, unity of the ummah a reject all false 'messengers' like iashad Khalifa, and unity of the mmah….. efter a glance at this Arab Magazine, I -amed a lot about Holy Arabs. I am uoting here two paragraphs that appear under the title "You should know": *"Arab Mariners and explorers had a very wide knowledge of the seas and oceans. The greatest discovery of the Arabs is that the oceans are connected with one another." (amazing discovery!] *"Modern research has proved beyond doubt that Arabs had discovered America. The latest research on the sub- ject had gone a step further and has established that the Arabs had dis- corercd intrica ine coniurica before Columbus." In the same issue we see the latest great discovery of Arabs in astronomy: "Insha'a Allah, the first of Ramadan Mubarek will fall either on April 6, 7, or 8, 1989, depending on when the moon is sighted." This is only a minute sample of the dis- coveries by people whose first discovery has been Hadith and Sunna. Perhaps they should look at any issue of the WASHINGTON POST to see the precise times of rising and setting of the whole solar system - the sun, moon, Mars, Jupiter, Venus, etc. It would be embarrasing if such people agreed with Rashad. Thank God they don't! Math'cal Miracle of Hadith!! The followers of Hadith & Sunna have been very upset since the discovery of a miraculous mathematical structure in the Quran. They declared that Hadith is equal to the Quran (see Page 3 of this issue and the August Perspective), and therefore must be similar to Quran in every respect. But Hadith has no mathe- matical connection! I have good news for the Hadithists. We have found an amazing mathematical phenomenon in Hadith. In the renowned Muwatta of Malik (43/11) and Musnad of Ahmad Ibn Hanbal (2/182) we find that the punishment for cutting the fingers of a woman is to pay her: 10 camels for one finger, 20 camels for two fingers, 30 camels for three fingers, and 20 camels for four fingers, This is their Shari'a law (by their own confession, they are Sunnis, not Mus- lims). The peculiar reduction for 4 fingers can't be coincidental, there must be a mathematical miracle somewhere!!! The only problem is, if the criminal cuts three fingers of the victim, it would be cheaper for him to cut one more finger!! Another question: Do the Sunni scholars realize that the woman actually has five fingers in each hand??!! How many camels for 5 fingers? We are waiting for their Ijtihaad. Muhammed will intercede This may be a confusing title, but this is precisely what I mean to say. We learn from Quran that Muhammed will inter- cede for his people: The messenger will say, "My Lord; my people have abandoned this Quran." Thus, Muhammed's intercession (Shafaa'ah) is the exact opposite of what his idolizers expect.
