SPECIFIC ASSIGNMENT OF VERSES ON SOVEREIGNTY, KINGSHIP, AND OTHERS (PART 1)
I seek refuge in Allah from satan the rejected.
In the name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful.
There are key and important statements through the verses of the Quran which denote and reflect GOD’S Absolute Authority in the Heavens, the Earth, and everything in between. They could be individual verses on this fact, or be part of the verse. What is most commendable and intriguing is that the verses reflecting on GOD’S Sovereignty and Absoluteness are assigned specific spots in the Quran, and around other verses to present a wide range of message and subject matter. Out of His wisdom, GOD has purposely arranged and designed the layout of all the verses in a specific manner. The verses surrounding the verses on Sovereignty, Kingship, and Absoluteness are therefore highly important in that they will open up and reveal a variety of subjects providing key and important information for the believers. This is the first time ever that a subject so miraculous is being brought to your attention. There are a lot of verses on this subject, and I will try to shed light on each set of verses as I go along. Moreover, I will try to recite more of the verses and less of proofs to keep the Sermon contained for time reasons, though the Sermon is not complete till I recite GOD’S PROOFS as evidence of the “Proven Scripture”.
It is imperative for the people to understand what is encompassed through the rank and title of King, Sovereign, Absolute, and all other attributes of the Most High. Without fully grasping and understanding GOD’S attributes, it is difficult to submit correctly or fully. Most of the followers of the scripture remain unaware of these powerful verses of Absoluteness and Sovereignty that are intermixed within the main verse, or appear separately with other verses surrounding them with specific subject matters. Through this Sermon, I implore God to grant you the wisdom to grasp and understand on how you can reverence Him alone, and how to refrain from challenging, blaspheming, or opposing His Absolute Authority – such violations can happen in many different ways. The subject matter and messages opened up through the sets of verses on Absoluteness should bring “new knowledge” to the people.
There are many different styles of verses on Absoluteness and Sovereignty, but I will recite some of the most frequent and prominent ones appearing in the Quran. They are:
1. To God belongs everything in the heavens and the earth.
2. To God belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth.
3. To God belongs the kingship of the heavens and the earth.
These statements and verses clearly inform His creatures that He is the Sovereign GOD, has Kingship of the heavens and the earth, and that everything belongs to Him. The various subjects surrounding these statements will be the focus of today’s khutbah, which will bring “new enlightenment” through the scripture that is full of “wisdom”. Most of these sets of verses are based on 3 verses, but sometimes more or less to express and explain the subject surrounding them.
I will “bold print” the Statements and Verses on Absoluteness to differentiate the main verse from the surrounding verses, which will help explain the subject being revealed by GOD. NOTE that the very first example on this topic is on the “system of messengers” which gives it the due impetus, and should draw the attention of the disbelieving people.
Blaspheming GOD’S Sovereignty by Opposing His messengers
2:105 Neither the disbelievers among the followers of the scripture, nor the idol worshipers, wish to see any blessings come down to you from your Lord. However, GOD showers His blessings upon whomever He chooses. GOD possesses infinite grace.
2:106 When we abrogate any miracle, or cause it to be forgotten, we produce a better miracle, or at least an equal one. Do you not recognize the fact that GOD is Omnipotent?
2:107 Do you not recognize the fact that GOD possesses the kingship of the heavens and the earth; that you have none besides GOD as your Lord and Master?
2:108 Do you wish to demand of your messenger what was demanded of Moses in the past? Anyone who chooses disbelief, instead of belief, has truly strayed off the right path.
2:109 Many followers of the scripture would rather see you revert to disbelief, now that you have believed. This is due to jealousy on their part, after the truth has become evident to them. You shall pardon them, and leave them alone, until GOD issues His judgment. GOD is Omnipotent.
In this example of a set of 5 verses, the subject matter is clear. GOD is informing us that the followers of the Scripture or those who claim that they believe and follow His Scriptures are the ones who reject the human messengers and the miracles bestowed upon them. They reject them for reasons of jealousy and ego and do not like another fellow human being blessed with God’s mercy. They also have doubts about GOD’S Omnipotence and Sovereignty, and fail to see that He can create and send a “New Miracle” each time if He so chooses. The disbelievers and idol worshipers present their own demands for the kind of
2
miracle they would like to have. They even try to revert the messenger and the few believers away from the truth to their way of belief, in order to challenge GOD. This is why it is clearly stated that GOD possesses the Kingship of the heavens and the earth and that you have none besides Him as your Lord and Master. Those who commit this gross sin of rejecting His messengers end up challenging and blaspheming GOD’S Absoluteness over the heavens and the earth. This is the beginning verse of this Sermon, therefore, it is important to highlight some of the proofs for parts of the verses.
2:105 Part 1: Neither the disbelievers among the followers of the scripture, nor the idol worshipers, wish to see any blessings come down to you from your Lord.
Revealed: The GV of Allah letters is 223 – the perfect blessing of our Lord to become believers, 223, through the messenger.
2:105 Part 2: However, GOD showers His blessings upon whomever He chooses. GOD possesses infinite grace.
Revealed: The Allah letters for both parts are 16 and 15, revealing the diff. of 1. The Sovereign God chooses to bless a particular human being with the scripture, and commands the followers of the scripture to follow him.
Revealed: The GV of Allah letters for both parts is 453, revealing “the Scripture” – “Al-Kitab”. The system of blessing a particular human with the Scripture from GOD and its knowledge is in accordance with verse 35:32. When the person receives the revealed knowledge from GOD, then automatically the person attains the title of a messenger or a warner. The evidence of this is clear by receiving words like “the believers” – 223, and “the scripture” – 453 through the verses of the Quran, but revealed by GOD.
These same verses were messages to the past communities revealed through past messengers. GOD has now transformed them to the present-day community by revealing the current miracles and revelations through the same verses. The words “disbelievers” and “idol worshipers” are marked in mysterious, yet identifiable ways, to present the criteria for judging and distinguishing the believers from the disbelievers and the idol worshipers. The Seven Pairs Coding of the letters of Allah and those of His messenger will be the determining factor between belief and disbelief at this time of history. I will write “the disbelievers” and “idol worshipers” on each side while writing the Arabic letters in between that separate these words. Note the Miracle!
Kufaroo (the disbelievers) – min ahle alkitabe wa la – Al-Mushrekeen (the idol
3
worshipers)
Miracle: The Arabic letters in between the 2 words have: 7 Allah letters
and 7 messenger's letters – the SEVEN PAIRS TEST.
Miracle: The GV of all of the Arabic letters in between the 2 words is 616
= 14 x 44. The number 616 will open up the verse 61:6, which in turn opens up the key word: “Ahmad”, which in turn introduces the people to the entire praised message of ALLAH sent down through me, Subhan Allah.
To unlock the Code of “AHMAD” as revealed by the Omnipotent, here it is: It is composed of 4 Arabic letters: they are Aleef, Ha, Meem, and Dal.
There are only 2 letters of the messenger’s name in the word, “Ahmad” which are Ha and Meem. They appear in the same sequence as they appear in chapters 40-46 as the Quranic Initials, Ha and meem. Writing them as they appear in “Ahmad”, the sequence is Ha, Meem = 8,40. This is the SIGN of H.M. as given in chapters 40-46, which are the beginning letters of the messenger’s name and represent the messenger’s name, Husain and Makbool. This number, 840, is a multiple of 14.
The other letters in “Ahmad” which are not in the messenger’s name are: Aleef and Dal. Writing them in the sequence as they appear in the word, they reveal the pattern of Aleef, Dal = 1,4.
The secret and mystery behind “Ahmad” and the fulfillment of the prophecy about Ahmad has now been decoded by GOD to reveal the name of the messenger, Makbool Husain – the one who has been given the Sign of the 7 Pairs of Quranic Initials, H.M. along with the blessed Miracle of 14 to complement it. Alhumdo Lillah.
Taking both words in 61:6 which are “asmohoo ahmad” which means “name will be ahmad.” Note the Miracle and where it leads to!
Revealed: The GV of the messenger’s letters in both words is 148 for Alhumdo Lillah, which means: Praise be to Allah. The GV of Allah letters is precisely 7 in both words. This surely is the “most praised message from the Most Praiseworthy” as revealed through the Coded words – Name will be Ahmad, and as revealed through the gematric values of the messenger’s letters in the 2 words, which are 148.
Revealed: The Allah letters are 3 in both words and messenger’s letters
are 4, revealing the diff. of 1.
The Pattern of Allah letters in each word are 2 and 1. The messenger’s letters in
4
each word are 2 and 2. Writing them according to the revealed pattern, we have the numbers 21 and 22, which in turn opens up verse 21:22. This verse will prove, confirm and establish the Absoluteness of GOD regarding His messengers, and everything else in the Universe.
21:22 If there were in them (the heavens and the earth) other gods beside ALLAH, there would have been chaos. Glory be to ALLAH; the Lord with the Absolute Authority. He is high above their claims.
Revealed: The Allah letters are 24 and the messenger’s letters are 23, revealing the diff. of 1 – the One, Absolute GOD with the Absolute Authority, Subhan Allah.
21:22 Part 1: If there were in them (the heavens and the earth) other gods beside ALLAH, there would have been chaos.
21:22 Part 2: Glory be to ALLAH; the Lord with the Absolute Authority. He is high above their claims.
Revealed: The messenger’s letters are 11 and 12, revealing the diff. of
1 – The Absolute Authority of GOD in choosing and appointing messengers, Subhan Allah.
21:22 Part: Glory be to ALLAH.
21:22 Part: The Lord with the Absolute Authority. He is high above their claims.
Revealed: The Allah letters are 4 and 3, revealing the diff. of 1. The disbelievers cannot appreciate or recognize His Absoluteness, and they continue to blunder by associating partners with Him, and rejecting the messengers that are appointed by Him.
Revealed: The messenger’s letters are 6 and 6 – the Pattern to reveal the Glorified Name of ALLAH – 66.
Revealed: The Allah letters are 7 and messenger’s letters are 12, revealing 19 – the One GOD.
Getting back to the original set of verses that I started off with, note the special blessings of the Most Merciful to identify me as one of the messengers in accordance with the Sacred Codes revealed to me, Subhan Allah. I will only take and show you the parts on blessings upon a specific human – the messenger of GOD.
2:105 Part: (the disbelievers and idol worshipers do not) “Wish to see any blessing come down to you from your Lord. (Un yonnuzul alaykum min khairin min Rabbaykum)
2:105 Part: However, GOD showers His blessings upon whomever He chooses.
5
GOD possesses infinite grace.
Revealed: The messenger’s letters as revealed by the Most Gracious are 14 and 19 in each part – a special blessing of receiving the Scripture based on the Sacred Codes.
Revealed: The GV of the messenger’s letters are 452 and 438, revealing the diff. of 14. This proves that the “New Revelation of the Message and Messenger” is Sacredly Marked and Coded in ways which will be known to the “inspired person” while all others are blocked out from it. Note further proofs of the blessing of GOD.
2:105 Part: However, GOD showers His blessings upon whomever He chooses.
2:105 Part: GOD possesses infinite grace.
Revealed: The messenger’s letters are 10 and 9, revealing the diff. of 1. Revealed: The GV of the messenger’s letters are 226 and 212, revealing the diff. of 14, Subhan Allah.
Note that the last part of the verse, saying: GOD possesses infinite grace – is marked with the GV of messenger’s letters as 212, which stands for “Rabbi” – “my Lord”.
The Possessor of Infinite Grace has already proven some of the blessings bestowed upon me, in the form of the Revelations, through parts of the verse, and even sub-parts of the verse, to twice reveal the Sacred Code of 14 through the letters of the messenger, as well as the Revelation of 1, and the Sacred Codes of 14 and 19, Alhumdo Lillah.
This was a small example of the immense wisdom and knowledge of GOD – all of this reflects the subject of Sovereignty, Absoluteness, and Omnipotence of Allah. This is why I have chosen to present it to you. While I type this sermon, new revelations are being revealed by the Omnipotent Lord, Glory be to Him. I have not been able to proceed past the first set of verses yet, and I have so much to go, Subhan Allah. Anyone out of the believers, or the followers of the scripture, who can fathom the immense mercy of GOD upon the messenger through these revelations, can probably grasp the rest of the message covering the entire Quran. If they cannot appreciate the intricate, intermixed, and interwoven composition of the letters of the words and verses, then they have failed to appreciate the Kingship, Sovereignty, Absoluteness, and Omnipotence of the Lord of the Universe. It is not just composing the verse on “Blessings” by putting the messenger’s letters as 14 and 19, but has also calculated the precise gematric values to bear the difference of 14 each time. At the same time, the words and their spellings cannot be abrogated or changed by anyone – they have been here, and will stay as such till the Day of Judgment. All of this proves
6
that the profound warner’s letters are intermixed and interlocked within the words and verses of the Quran – a Profound Miracle of the Most Powerful, the Almighty.
2:106 Part: When we abrogate any miracle, or cause it to be forgotten, we produce a better miracle, or at least an equal one.
Revealed: The messenger’s letters are 19, Subhan Allah.
2:107 Part: That you have none beside GOD as your Lord and Master.
Revealed: The messenger’s letters are 19, Subhan Allah.
His Omnipotence and Kingship Proven
2:106 Part: Do you not recognize the fact that ALLAH is Omnipotent?
2:107 Part: Do you not recognize the fact that ALLAH possesses the Kingship of the heavens and the earth?
Revealed: The GV of the Allah letters is 444 and of the messenger’s letters is 962. Note the Sacred Codes as they emerge out of these numbers: 444,962 = 14 x 31783, and 962,444 = 14 x 68746, and 444 +
962 = 1406 = 19 x 74.
2:107 Part: Do you not recognize the fact that ALLAH. Revealed: The GV of Allah letters is 128.
2:107 Part: (who) possesses the kingship of the heavens and the earth.
Revealed: The GV of Allah letters is 128.
Revealed: The GV of the messenger’s letters for both parts is 522 – the Hadith of GOD.
Revealed: The GV of Allah letters is 256, and the messenger’s letters is
522, revealing the diff. of 266 = 14 x 19.
As you have witnessed, it was easy for GOD to prove His Omnipotence by revealing instant Miracles such as the above. Instant Miracles like these are just one of the examples and proof of the Omnipotence of ALLAH, which in turn proves and confirms His Absoluteness and Sovereignty over all things and matters. Miracles such as these, whereby the letters of the Omnipotent are interwoven and intermixed with the letters of His human messenger to reveal specific numbers and values, which in turn reveal new interpretations and messages, have never been known in the past! This is
7
what makes it the “Ultimate Miracle!”
Blaspheming GOD by Boycotting the Masjids where His name alone is commemorated
2:114 Who are more evil than those who boycott GOD's masjids, where His name is commemorated, and contribute to their desertion? These ought not to enter therein except fearfully. They will suffer in this life humiliation, and will suffer in the Hereafter a terrible retribution.
2:115 To GOD belongs the east and the west; wherever you go there will be the presence of GOD. GOD is Omnipresent, Omniscient.
These 2 verses inform us that the hypocrites and the disbelievers boycott the Masjids (Mosques) where the messenger of GOD and the believers pray. Moreover, they raise arguments about the Qiblah, dispute between themselves and desert GOD’S masjids, where His Name is commemorated alone. It also brings out the fact that you do not have to confine your worship to a particular masjid – wherever you are on earth, you can observe GOD, and do your Contact Prayers, as long as you commemorate GOD’S name alone. The Absoluteness is represented through the powerful statement saying that “To GOD belongs the east and the west; wherever you go there will be the presence of GOD, who is Omnipresent and Omniscient”.
The Omnipresent and Omniscient ALLAH being present all the time and everywhere is proven through the gematric values of His messenger sent with the Ultimate Proofs. Note the Proofs:
2:115 Part 1: To GOD belongs the east and the west.
2:115 Part 2: Wherever you go there will be the presence of GOD.
Revealed: The GVs of the messenger’s letters are 314 and 248, revealing the diff. of 66 – Allah is present everywhere, and is aware of all things, Subhan Allah.
2:115 Part 1: To GOD belongs the east and the west; wherever you go there will be the presence of GOD.
2:115 Part 2: GOD is Omnipresent, Omniscient.
Revealed: The GVs of the messenger’s letters are 562 and 256, revealing the diff. of 306. GOD has proven through His messenger, Makbool Husain, that He is Omnipresent and Omniscient.
Revealed: Omnipresent: (Waasay’un) GV of messenger’s letters is 66 – Proven Fact that GOD is Omnipresent. Omniscient: (Aleem) GV of messenger’s letters is 80, revealing the diff. of 14, Subhan Allah.
8
Revealed: Omnipresent: (Waasay’un) GV of the word is 136. Omniscient: (Aleem) GV of the word is 150, revealing the diff. of 14, Alhumdo Lillah.
Revealed: The GV of the word “presence” (Wajjho) is precisely 14 also, Glory be to Allah.
Revealed: The GV of the messenger’s letters in “Presence of Allah” (Wajjho Allah) is precisely 66, Praise be to Allah.
Revealed: The words “east and west” are separated from the words “presence of Allah” by precisely 14 Arabic letters in between the words. Revealed: The East (Al-Mashriq) – Arabic letters are 6. The West (Al- Maghrib) – Arabic letters are 6 – this reveals the fact that “the east and the west” belong to Allah, 66.
Revealed: The “presence of Allah” (Wajjho Allah) is comprised of 7 Arabic letters – the Lord of the 7 Universes, Subhan Allah.
The East (Al-Mashriq) – Arabic letters are 6 The West (Al-Maghrib) – Arabic letters are 6 Presence (Wajjho) – Arabic letters are 3 Allah – Arabic letters are 4
Revealed: The number of Arabic letters comprising these words are (6+6+3+4) = 19. The Quranic Initials in them are (5+4+1+4) = 14.
This proves that ALLAH is ONE (Waahed-19) and the Codes of 19 and 14 are indeed SACRED, attached with Allah and His Eternal Presence in the heavens and the earth. His presence is everywhere, Glory be to Him.
The Pattern of Arabic letters revealed above for East and West is 6 and 6, whereas for the “Presence of Allah” they are 3 and 4, thereby creating numbers 66 and 34. His Glorified Presence is proven and can be felt by the sincere and the truthful, when they open the Quran and see for themselves that the 66 numbered verses appear precisely in 34 chapters – perfectly designed matching proofs – no less, and no more. It is the Absolute Precision of ALLAH who has sent down the Absolute Proofs from Him to remove all doubts.
The words: “The east and the west; the presence of Allah” have 9 Allah letters, and the messenger’s letters are 10, revealing the diff. of 1. It also reveals the 2 Sacred Codes through the Pattern of 910, being verse 74:30, and also 910 being a multiple of 14, reveals the verse 15:87, Subhan Allah.
Attributing Partners with GOD and demanding to see GOD
2:116 They said, "GOD has begotten a son!" Be He glorified; never! To Him
9
belongs everything in the heavens and the earth; all are subservient to Him.
2:117 The Initiator of the heavens and the earth: to have anything done, He simply says to it, "Be," and it is.
2:118 Those who possess no knowledge say, "If only GOD could speak to us, or some miracle could come to us!" Others before them have uttered similar utterances; their minds are similar. We do manifest the miracles for those who have attained certainty.
2:119 We have sent you with the truth as a bearer of good news, as well as a warner. You are not answerable for those who incur Hell.
This set of 4 verses inform us about the blasphemy of the idol worshipers who attribute Jesus as being the son of GOD; failing to realize that GOD is the Initiator of the heavens and the earth; that everything is as easy for GOD as the words – Be, and it is – and demanding to see GOD or a miracle be given to them personally. This subject again emphasizes the importance of GOD’S messengers sent to the people as Warners. It is the liars amongst the people of the scripture who attribute lies against GOD and His messengers.
It is enlightening to know that verse 2:116 whereby GOD informs us that He is Absolute in Sovereignty and Kingship of the universe and has no son or partners is precisely marked with the GV of Allah letters as 329, revealing His Glorified Name – AL-RAHMAN, 329, Subhan Allah.
Further, the part of verse 2:117 that reads: “The Initiator of the heavens and the earth.” is coded with 16 Arabic letters and 5 Allah letters, revealing the Pattern of 165 – the Absolute.
2:116 Part: Never! To Him belongs everything in the heavens and the earth.
2:117 Part: The Initiator of the heavens and the earth.
Revealed: The GV of Allah letters are 129 and 63, revealing the diff. of 66 – the Proven Truth that Allah is the Initiator and everything belongs to Him – He has no partners at all.
The revelation of the entire Quran with its vast array of proofs is just a small miracle compared to the overall miraculous creation, control, and management of the infinite size of the universe and the creations in them, as proven through the Ultimate Miracle of the Seven Pairs given in verse 2:117.
2:117 The Initiator of the heavens and the earth: to have anything done, He simply says to it, "Be," and it is.
Revealed: The Allah letters are precisely 14 – revealing the Ultimate
10
Miracle of the Seven Pairs.
Most believers fail when put to the Test through the Messenger
2:141 That was a community from the past. They are responsible for what they earned, and you are responsible for what you earned. You are not answerable for anything they did.
2:142 The fools among the people would say, "Why did they change the direction of their Qiblah?" Say, "To GOD belongs the east and the west; He guides whoever wills in a straight path."
2:143 We thus made you an impartial community, that you may serve as witnesses among the people, and the messenger serves as a witness among you. We changed the direction of your original Qiblah only to distinguish those among you who readily follow the messenger from those who would turn back on their heels. It was a difficult test, but not for those who are guided by GOD. GOD never puts your worship to waste. GOD is Compassionate towards the people, Most Merciful.
The above set of 3 verses inform us that the believers are not allowed to question the messenger’s command, nor are they allowed to critique or quote that a certain command/s has been carried out or fulfilled in the past through former messengers. The tests of GOD are conducted through all messengers in different ways and most believers are shocked by them – thus they respond negatively and nullify their earlier righteous belief and works. When the command of GOD comes through His messenger, most believers forget or ignore their earlier pledge of “We hear and we obey” and thus join the losers. The Sovereignty of GOD according to the words chosen by Him confirm the system through the letters of this messenger.
2:142 Part: Say, “To GOD belongs the east and the west.”
2:142 Part: He guides whoever wills in a straight path.
Revealed: The messenger’s letters are 11 and 12, revealing the diff. of 1, Subhan Allah.
Most people violate God’s Absoluteness by following unauthorized peers and scholars
2:164 In the creation of the heavens and the earth, the alternation of night and day, the ships that roam the ocean for the benefit of the people, the water that GOD sends down from the sky to revive dead land and to spread in it all kinds of creatures, the manipulation of the winds, and the clouds that are placed between the sky and the earth, there are sufficient proofs for people who understand.
2:165 Yet, some people set up idols to rival GOD, and love them as if they are
11
GOD. Those who believe love GOD the most. If only the transgressors could see themselves when they see the retribution! They will realize then that all power belongs to GOD alone, and that GOD's retribution is awesome.
2:166 Those who were followed will disown those who followed them. They will see the retribution, and all ties among them will be severed.
This set of 3 verses is on the Absoluteness of GOD, as Coded through verse 165. Though GOD has provided all kinds of proofs through the multiple creations and provisions, as well as proofs from the scriptures; most people still follow unauthorized peers, scholars, parents, and leaders in violation of GOD’S commands in the scriptures. The doubtful and insincere people follow and love their idols as if they have some power and readily forget and disregard GOD, who has all the power over their idols and themselves. The ties of the disbelievers are temporary and they will readily abandon each other on the Day of Judgment. The Statement proclaiming GOD’S Absolute Power over everything and everybody as well as the severe retributions that He can unleash are revealed through the sacred words of the verse. His Absoluteness is projected to the people through His messengers, and therefore, they are required to believe in them.
2:165 Part: They will realize then that all power belongs to GOD alone, and that GOD's retribution is awesome.
Revealed: The GV of Allah letters is perfectly 202, revealing LORD. Revealed: The Allah letters are 16 and the messenger’s letters are 15, revealing the diff. of 1. GOD is testing the people regarding His Absoluteness right now through His messenger, Makbool. Those who believe in these revelations while believing in the past messages and messengers will be guided and redeemed by GOD, while those who refuse to be believers will suffer the inevitable consequences of retribution – now or in the Hereafter.
2:165 Part 1: They will realize then that all power belongs to GOD alone. 2:165 Part 2: And that GOD's retribution is awesome.
Revealed: The messenger’s letters are 8 and 7, revealing the diff. of 1. Revealed: Part 1: The GV of messenger’s letters is 296, revealing Rasool or Messenger. Once GOD initiates His retribution for the disbelievers, it becomes too late for them to repent, nor will they be granted any reprieve. The Coding of Absolute Power of GOD is done through the letters of the messenger, as 296.
Absoluteness and Total Sovereignty of the Living, the Eternal ALLAH
12
2:255 GOD: there is no other god besides Him, the Living, the Eternal. Never a moment of unawareness or slumber overtakes Him. To Him belongs everything in the heavens and everything on earth. Who could intercede with Him, except in accordance with His will? He knows their past, and their future. No one attains any knowledge, except as He wills. His dominion encompasses the heavens and the earth, and ruling them never burdens Him. He is the Most High, the Great.
2:256 There shall be no compulsion in religion: the right way is now distinct from the wrong way. Anyone who denounces the devil and believes in GOD has grasped the strongest bond; one that never breaks. GOD is Hearer, Omniscient.
2:257 GOD is Lord of those who believe; He leads them out of darkness into the light. As for those who disbelieve, their lords are their idols; they lead them out of the light into darkness – these will be the dwellers of Hell; they abide in it forever.
In this set of 3 verses, the Absoluteness of ALLAH is mentioned through 2:255. The digits of the chapter and verse number (2+2+5+5+) = 14. The Miracle of the Seven Pairs confirms that everything belongs to GOD and that He even controls the knowledge as well as all other matters in the universe.
Additionally, based on the freedom of choice, He has ruled that there should be no compulsion in religion, as He has defined and outlined the right way from the wrong way. The right way demands the denunciation of the devil in order to believe in GOD. Whoever creates a strong bond with GOD by following all His laws, He will then lead them out of darkness into the light and will be their LORD forever, while the disbelievers will have no lord.
The part of the verse proclaiming GOD’S Absoluteness is coded and the proof is revealed herein.
2:255 Part: To Him belongs everything in the heavens and everything on earth.
Revealed: The GV of Allah letters is 100 and of the messenger’s letters is 302, revealing the diff. of 202 for LORD. This shows that the LORD created, owns and controls 100 percent of the universes.
Belief in God’s messengers is belief in God’s Absoluteness
2:284 To GOD belongs everything in the heavens and the earth. Whether you declare your innermost thoughts, or keep them hidden, GOD holds you responsible for them. He forgives whomever He wills, and punishes whomever He wills. GOD is Omnipotent.
2:285 The messenger has believed in what was sent down to him from his Lord,
13
and so did the believers. They believe in GOD, His angels, His scripture, and His messengers: "We make no distinction among any of His messengers." They say, "We hear, and we obey. Forgive us, our Lord. To You is the ultimate destiny."
This set of 2 verses clarifies and explains that the messenger believes in what God reveals to Him and so do the believers. The definition of the belief is given, which demands believing in all of the messengers without making distinction between them and to pledge and uphold the words: We hear and obey. The Absoluteness of GOD means that He is fully aware of all thoughts amongst His creatures – declared or concealed. Based on individual responses and actions, He will either forgive or punish them.
GOD – the Grantor of all Sovereignty and Dignity, or removal of it!
3:25 How will it be for them, when we summon them on that inevitable day? Each soul will be paid for whatever it earned, without the least injustice.
3:26 Say, "Our god: possessor of all sovereignty. You grant sovereignty to whomever You choose, You remove sovereignty from whomever You choose. You grant dignity to whomever You choose, and commit to humiliation whomever You choose. In Your hand are all provisions. You are Omnipotent.
3:27 "You merge the night into the day, and merge the day into the night. You produce the living from the dead, and produce the dead from the living, and You provide for whomever You choose, without limits."
The Sovereign King of the Universe enlightens us through these 3 verses that He controls and grants sovereignty and dignity to the people on earth or removes it from them in order to humiliate them. He controls all the provisions. He is the only One who controls and merges the night and the day and is the Creator as well as the One who gives death. The disbelievers are warned that though they realize that GOD is the only one who is behind each phenomena and function of their lives, they still do not prepare for the Inevitable Day – the Day of Resurrection, when each soul will be paid back with rewards or punished and condemned forever.
The believers of the Quran are asked to proclaim verses 3:26-27 and I recite the proof on an important part of it.
3:26 Part: Say, “Our god, Possessor of all sovereignty.”
Revealed: The Allah letters are 9 and messenger’s letters are 10, revealing the diff. of 1, and the sum is 19.
3:26 Part: Say, “Our god, Possessor of all sovereignty.”
14
3:26 Last Part: In Your hands are all provisions. You are Omnipotent.
Revealed: The Allah letters are 9 and 5, revealing the sum of 14. Revealed: The messenger’s letters are 10 and 11, revealing the diff. of 1.
Revelations from the Sovereign to the Humans are part of His Mercy
3:108 These are GOD's revelations; we recite them to you, truthfully. GOD does not wish any hardship for the people.
3:109 To GOD belongs everything in the heavens and everything on earth, and all matters are controlled by GOD.
3:110 You are the best community ever raised among the people: you advocate righteousness and forbid evil, and you believe in GOD. If the followers of the scripture believed, it would be better for them. Some of them do believe, but the majority of them are wicked.
God’s revelations to mankind are part of His mercy through His Attribute of Sovereignty and Absoluteness. He has not made it hard for the people, in fact, He has alleviated and removed the constraints and shackles levied against the people by their idols. In this set, the believing community under the messenger is mentioned for being righteous and invites other followers of the scripture to rethink about their incomplete belief in GOD. Some will believe, while the majority choose to remain wicked.
Redemption Controlled by the Absolute and Sovereign GOD
3:128 It is not up to you; He may redeem them, or He may punish them for their transgressions.
3:129 To GOD belongs everything in the heavens and the earth. He forgives whomever He wills, and punishes whomever He wills. GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful.
This set of verses inform the messengers that they have no power to guide or redeem the people, nor do they have the power to send them astray. It is GOD who controls this department to redeem or to punish, as part of His Absolute Authority and Sovereignty.
Boasting and Arrogance Lead to Exile from the Sovereign GOD
3:188 Those who boast about their works, and wish to be praised for something they have not really done, should not think that they can evade the retribution. They have incurred a painful retribution.
3:189 To GOD belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth. GOD is
15
Omnipotent.
3:190 In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation of night and day, there are signs for those who possess intelligence.
These verses warn the arrogant and the show-offs who boast and brag about their works, and expect to be praised even for things that they have not done without realizing that GOD is the One in Charge – the One who will repay for the righteous works, nullify them, or punish them for their evil works. They dare to maintain their evil behavior even after observing His creations in the universe, thus challenging God’s Sovereignty over the universe.
Showering Blessings upon whoever He wills is an Attribute of The Sovereign
4:52 It is they who incurred GOD's condemnation, and whomever GOD
condemns, you will not find any helper for him.
4:53 Do they own a share of the sovereignty? If they did, they would not give the people as much as a grain.
4:54 Are they envious of the people because GOD has showered them with His blessings? We have given Abraham's family the scripture, and wisdom; we granted them a great authority.
In this set, the example of Abraham and his family is given as being showered with God’s blessings of guidance and authority on earth, which the disbelievers feel averse to and resent. If GOD left it up to the people to share sovereignty, then they would not share as much as a grain with others. Those who oppose God’s actions incur His wrath and condemnation. Those condemned by Him cannot be helped by anyone else, as there is only ONE GOD. I recite some proofs on this set.
4:53 Do they own a share of the sovereignty? If they did, they would not give the people as much as a grain.
Revealed: The Allah letters are 14 and the messenger’s initials are 19 –
revealing the Sacred Codes.
The Sovereign has decreed the path of Abraham to follow
4:125 Who is better guided in his religion than one who submits totally to GOD, leads a righteous life, according to the creed of Abraham: monotheism? GOD has chosen Abraham as a beloved friend.
4:126 To GOD belongs everything in the heavens and the earth. GOD is in full control of all things.
4:127 They consult you concerning women: say, "GOD enlightens you regarding
16
17
them, as recited for you in the scripture. You shall restore the rights of orphaned girls whom you cheat out of their due dowries when you wish to marry them: you shall not take advantage of them. The rights of orphaned boys must also be protected as well. You shall treat the orphans equitably. Whatever good you do, GOD is fully aware thereof."
In this set of verses, the example of Abraham is given again as he was tested through God’s commands which he fulfilled. His example has been set for future generations to follow. The verse on the rights of the women, the orphaned girls and boys emphasizes that all of God’s commands are to be respected and obeyed in order to demonstrate that you are following the “religion of Abraham” which is ISLAM. If you do not, then GOD does not need you, as He is the Sovereign and Absolute – you will die and be held accountable, while He still owns and controls the universe.
God is Most Wise and Bounteous – Obeying His Laws is Trusting His Authority
4:130 If the couple must decide to part, GOD will provide for each of them from His bounties. GOD is Bounteous, Most Wise.
4:131 To GOD belongs everything in the heavens and the earth, and we have enjoined on those who received the scripture before you, and enjoined on you, that you shall reverence GOD. If you disbelieve, then to GOD belongs everything in the heavens and the earth. GOD is in no need, Praiseworthy.
GOD has commanded the people to obey and follow all His laws in order to reverence Him Alone. If they do not, then He is still the Lord of the Heavens and the Earth, and is in Absolute Control over all things and matters, while the disbelievers will have no lord.
I have been able to present only a fraction of the overall Sermon. There is a lot of subject matter still to be recited. I will continue with Part 2 next time, Insha Allah. There may be more parts to this sermon – how many, I do not know. But GOD surely knows it.
Please read slowly and carefully as always. Reflect at the enormous proofs and miracles of GOD as you read along. Your ongoing submission depends on GOD’S guidance, and receiving ongoing guidance from the Most Merciful is dependent upon your sincerity and righteousness.
Peace be upon the messengers.
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Universe.
