1:29 LA ILLAHA ILLA ALLAH. LA ILLAHA ILLA ALLAH
2:06 ALHAMDULILLAAH, We praise God
2:08 WA ASHHADU AN LA ILLAAHA ILLAA ALLAAH, WAHDAHU LAA SHARIKA LAH
2:12 And we bear witness that there is no other god beside the one God.
2:17 Are we gonna have fun today? I'm giving 3 KHUTBAHs on behalf of three people.
2:26 I'm giving KHUTBAH on behalf of Edip and a KHUTBAH on behalf of Soad and a KHUTBAH on behalf of Saeed Talari from Newhampshire.
2:37 I'm presenting to you some things that they discovered in the last week. And they're all fantastic. You have all witnessed
2:50 the last month or so the miracle of miracles. We witnessed the
2:55 miracle of miracles that has to do with the first SURA in the Quran and the five daily prayers.
2:59 And just a quick review. This miracle of miracles begins with the number of units of our prayers.
3:11 The morning is 2 units. The noon is four units. The afternoon is four units. The sunset is three
3:17 units and the night prayer is four units. And this is a multiple of 19. The sequence
3:22 and specific numbers have to be this way. More... More sophisticated than this is you put
3:32 the two units of the morning and then you put two Fãtehahs. Now the asterisk can be any
3:38 representation of SURA number one. For example, this is one of them. This representation of SURA
3:44 one includes the number of the SURA, one, the number of verses in the SURA which is 7
3:50 the number of words... letters in the whole SURA, 139 and the gematrical value of all the letters
4:00 added up. The whole SURA. This means you take the value of every letter add it up and you get
4:05 one hundred... ten thousand forty three. Put them next to each other like this you have a multiple of
4:10 nineteen. And this is what the asterisk is. Or you can make it more complicated than this by
4:19 putting the gematrical value of every individual letter. You can also add the gematrical values
4:25 of the whole verse. You can add the number of verses... excuse me, the number of letters in every verse
4:31 and so on. All of them... these representations are multiples of 19 and all of them can be used here.
4:38 So, just think of this as Al-Fãtehah or SURA number 1. Any of these numbers can represent SURA number
4:47 one. So, you put the two units of the morning prayer followed by two Fãtehahs and then the four
4:54 units of the noon prayer followed by 4 Fãtehahs and then the four units of the afternoon prayer
5:00 followed by four of this number or any other number representing Al-Fãtehah. The sunset prayer is three
5:07 units followed by three Fãtehahs and then the night prayer is 4 units followed by 4 Fãtehahs.
5:18 We... we tried... we... we really tested this very hard and we... as you'll see, we even imposed very harsh
5:30 conditions and still God gives us multiples of 19. One of the most profound conditions
5:39 was to reverse the numbers from right to left. There was one representation of... of SURA Al-Fãtehah
5:50 that can be used in there as to replace the asterisk. Like I said you can use any number
6:06 representatives of SURA number one. Here's one of them and I just wanna give you
6:11 how an example of how we stretch it too far and God goes along with us, gives us
6:16 multiples of 19, still. You put the number of the SURA, 1, the number of the first
6:22 verse is 1, the number of letters in the first verse is 19. The gematrical value
6:28 of the first 786, verse number 2 has 17 letters and the value is 581
6:41 Verse number three... now this is one continuous
6:44 number, remember that... verse number three has 12 letters
6:50 And the value of 6 1 8.
6:55 verse number four has 11 letters and the value is 241, verse number 5... we're still continuing...
7:07 has 19 letters and the value is 836, verse number six has 17 letters and the value is
7:17 1072, the gematrical value. The last verse number seven has 43 letters
7:28 and the value is 6 0 0 9. OK. This... this is almost all the parameters of SURA number
7:38 one, the number of the SURA, the number of every verse followed by the number of letters in every
7:41 verse followed by the value of every verse. OK. This number is a multiple 19. It also
7:48 it consists of 38 digits, nineteen times two. So, what we did, we reversed this order
7:54 backward, every component we put this at the beginning and then this after which is a crazy
8:01 way of doing it but some Arabs will use that as an excuse. They say we write from
8:05 right to left. Well, still came out a multiple of 19. So, this is really the miracle of miracle.
8:16 Now, Saeed Talari... OK. Some smart-aleck, most probably an Arab will...
8:25 will tell you "why did they make it 2 SUJUDs in every unit? Why not 3 or 4?"
8:31 We do 1 RUKU'. This is RUKU', per unit and we make 2 SUJUDs per units. So, this smart-aleck
8:39 a disbeliever will tell you "why do you make 1 RUKU' and 2 SUJUDs?" And God is ahead of them.
8:47 So, this is Saeed Talari's discovery because... from New Hampshire... here's what Saeed did.
9:08 In the five prayers... in the five prayers, we read only one SURA which is SURA number one.
9:21 OK. Now, prayer number one; what do we do in prayer number 1? Here's prayer number 1.
9:27 What do we do? We read 2 Fãtehahs, right? And we make 2 RUKU's
9:35 2 bowings, 4 prostrations, 1 TASHAHUD, right?
9:41 ASHHADU AN LA ILAAHA ILLAA ALLAH, WAHDAHU LAA SHARIKA LAH
9:44 OK. Now. We get to prayer number two. What do you do in prayer number two?
9:49 We read 4 Fãtehahs, we make 4 RUKU's, we make 8 SUJUDs, and we read 2 TASHAHUDs
9:59 in the sitting position. Then, we get to the third prayer, prayer number three where we read for 4 Fãtehahs
10:07 four RUKU's, 8 SUJUDs, 2 TASHAHUD. Oh, excuse me this is 3.
10:17 That's right. That's right.
10:19 Then, we go to prayer number 4 where we read 3 Fãtehahs... see the changes in number?
10:27 And this is the only way it will be divisible by 19. We read 3 Fãtehahs, we make 3 RUKU's, 6 SUJUDs, 2 TASHAHUD.
10:38 And the night prayer is number 4... is number 5. Excuse me.
10:45 In it, we read 4 Fãtehahs, we make 4 RUKU's, 8 SUJUDs, 2 TASHAHUD.
10:53 This is a multiple 19. So, it pins down how many RUKU's, how many SUJUDs in every prayer, in the 5 prayers.
11:03 Now, is this miraculous or is this miraculous? We were very happy. We were... we were very happy about
11:09 this except we have in this mosque a troublemaker called Edip. We'll have one more in about seven
11:18 months. I mean, how we're gonna handle it. This troublemaker said "why..." Well, see, we have to be ahead of
11:31 the rascals of the... of the Arabs and the disbelievers. So, this is... we do this on purpose. So, it's a fantastic service.
11:39 He said "we read SURA number one. They will say "why don't you put it before every prayer?" And then he went home.
11:47 And he left Mahmood... and he left Mahmood to struggle with it. So, what Mahmood did... he put
11:53 one. OK. Here is SURA... prayer number two. He put one here. So, now we have the SURA
11:58 number ahead of every prayer. This is prayer number one. This is prayer number two
12:03 he put 1, the SURA that we read in the noon prayer. Before the ASR prayer, he put 1.
12:12 Yeah. This is the third prayer.
12:16 In the fourth prayer, he also put 1. And before the fifth prayer, he put 1. This excuse was that we read SURA number
12:25 one in every prayer. So, why don't we put 1 there? God said "OK. It's divisible."
12:32 SUBHAN ALLAH.
12:34 It's really incredible
12:36 because when you have a number like this...
12:47 OK. this number... this number is divisible by 19. This is 8.
12:54 OK. This number is divisible by 19 if you add one, it's not divisible anymore.
12:59 if you put... if you put it anywhere else here, it's not divisible by 19.
13:05 I mean, if you change it, you have a completely different number when you add 1.
13:13 So, these are all physical impossibilities but God made them possible.
13:21 I hope there are no scientists sitting here thinking how can physical impossibilities be possible.
13:25 Edip: I think if you put anywhere else these 4 one, it will not be divisible.
13:30 The messenger: Of course not. If you... if you put a one here or here. Put it anywhere else...Yes.
13:40 There's been a flood of miracles in the last month and to use Catherine's expression
13:48 We are light years ahead of the rest of the world because it's gonna
13:50 take them quite a few years to catch up with these.
13:54 I mean, after 50 years, they'll say...It'll take them maybe this much.
14:06 OK. This is Saeed Talari's discovery with Edip Yuksel's challenge and discovery.
14:21 I have to go a little faster. Edip's discovery.
14:31 The... the disbelievers, normally Arabs have been giving us rough time about BISMI ALLAH AL-RAHMAN AL-RAHIM
14:41 Is it nineteen letters or not? Of course, it is 19 letters. I keep telling them "what your eyes see you
14:46 count." They say "oh, there is a stress in this letter, we must count it twice." Like Mohammad, the whole Muslim
14:54 world wrote it 4 letters. Muhammad. They say "since you stress the second M, you must write Mohamamad."
15:01 Then, there are five letters instead of 4. Even their Idol, they mess up with his name. So, what Edip
15:08 discovered is that when you read SURA AL-HAMD, Al-Fãtehah. SURA number one, your lips meet exactly
15:15 19 times. Now, this has nothing to do with the spelling or or how many letters or stress or
15:23 anything. This really nullifies their excuse. For example, when we say BISM. That's 2. Let's say it together.
15:32 BISM that is... that is 2. Here is BISM. ALLAH. AL-RAHMAN. There is 1. AL-RAHIM. There is 1. AL-HAMD. There is 1.
15:44 LILLAH. RAB. There is 1. AL-ALAMIN. There is 1. AL-RAHMAN. AL-RAHIM. MALIK. YAWM. AL-DIN.
15:56 IYYAKA NABODO WA IYYAKA NASTA'IN. IHDINA AL-SIRATA AL-MOSTAQIM. 2 of them. MOSTAQIM. SIRATA AL-LAZINA
16:07 AN'AMTA ALAYHEM. QAYR AL-MAQDHUB ALAYHEM WA LA ZALLIN. How many are these?
16:17 These's 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17.
16:30 Hold it.
16:31 BISM. ALLAH. AL-RAHMAN. AL-RAHIM. AL-HAMD-O LILLAH. RAB. AL-ALAMIN.
16:40 AL-RAHMAN. AL-RAHIM. MALIK. YAWM. AL-DIN. IYYAKA
16:45 No.
16:49 BISM. ALLAH. AL-RAHMAN. AL-RAHIM. AL-HAMD-O LILLAH. RAB. AL-ALAMIN. AL-RAHMAN. AL-RAHIM. MALIK. YAWM.
16:59 AL-DIN. IYYAKA NABODO WA IYYAKA NASTAIN. IHDINA AL-SIRAT AL-MOSTAQIM. SIRATA AL-LAZINA AN'AMTA ALAYHEM.
17:10 QAYR AL-MAQDHUB ALAYHEM WA LA ZALLIN.
17:17 AL-MAQDHUB is 2. OK. Because there are... watch this! 4 Bs and 15 Ms.
17:30 In the Arabic language, these are the only letters
17:35 where... where your lips meet. The B and the M. In English or in Farsi, there's also P.
17:41 The letter P as in... as in...
17:48 It has to be Pill, backward. OK. The B... the value of B is 2 and the value of M is 40 in Arabic.
18:02 So, 15 times 40 is 600 and 4 times 2 is 8. The total 608. It's also a multiple of 19.
18:17 How do you like that? These miracles come in pairs. They have no excuse.
18:36 Oh, okay. Now, we get to Soad's discovery
18:42 Edip: Second KHUTBAH, Rashad.
18:49 Soad numbered the alphabet in a conventional manner. That is from 1 to 28. We have 28 letters in
18:58 alphabet. She counted 1 to 28. The gematrical value is when you get to 10, you don't count
19:02 11. You go to 20. 10 20 30 40... and when you get to 100, you don't go to 101. You go 100 200 300. Then, 900 1000.
19:11 Our system was 1 2 3 all the way to 28 which was used by Lisa also couple of years ago. OK. She... she looked at the word Nooh (نوح)
19:25 Noah in Arabic. The value of N is 14.
19:32 Excuse me. I didn't mean to write so small. 14 and the U or WOW in Arabic is 6 and the H or the HA is 8.
19:47 It gives 28, the value of Noah. Now, if you look in the Quran to SURA Noah, you'll find that it consists of 28 verses.
19:57 OK. Now, she went to Abraham.
20:03 And she found that the A is 1. The B is 2. The R is 20.
20:14 The A is 1. The HA is 5. The I, here, EBRAHIM is 10. And the N is 40. This is 42.
20:29 What? Oh, excuse me. 40 is the gematrical value. It's 13. Confused the two systems.
20:38 The total of IBRAHIM is 52 and this is the number of verses in SURA IBRAHIM. How do you like that?
20:46 OK. Then, she went to Muhammad and the M is 13. The HA is eight. Same letters as here, see? And then
20:58 thirteenth is the other M and the D is 4. The total is 38. This is the number of verses in SURA Mohammad.
21:08 How do you like that? So, she calculated the value of NOOH. It was 28 which is the number of verses
21:14 in SURA NOOH in the Quran. She calculated IBRAHIM... IBRAHIM, the value is 52 and this is the number of
21:21 verses in SURA IBRAHIM. She calculated Mohammad. The value is 38. This is the number of verses
21:26 in SURA Mohammad. And then she found out... that was this morning... that SURA NOOH is number 71 in the Quran
21:37 IBRAHIM is SURA number 14. What is the difference?
21:47 57. 19 times 3 which means between the two SURAs, Noah and Abraham, 57 SURAs and outside
21:56 also 57 SURAs and then she calculated Rashad Khalifa and the total came to 114.
22:06 There's no SURA in the Quran whose verses are 114. 114 is the whole Quran.
22:13 So, she concluded that Rashad's job is to confirm all 114 SURAs.
22:20 TUBU ILLA ALLAH, repent.
22:33 ALHAMDU LILLAAH, We praise God
22:36 WA ASHHADU AN LA ILLAAHA ILLAA ALLAH, WAHDAHU LAA SHARIKA LAH
22:39 and we bear witness that there is no other god besides the one God. We pray to God that
22:48 He guides us to appreciate His miracles because these are also miracles that will cause mountains
22:55 to crumble, literally. This is what God says and makes our hearts tremble. In this KHUTBAH,
23:07 I want to
23:10 share with you that God is using me as an example for all of us and to teach all of us.
23:19 So, I want to say that I'm a happy guinea pig. God is
23:24 using... using me as an experiment in a profound way. You read in SURA
23:33 41 that those who believe in God and lead a righteous life, the Angels descend on them saying
23:40 what? Douglas, what do the angels say to the believers? Have no fear and no grief. This is your favorite verse.
23:51 They also say peace. Yeah. That's another SURA... another SURA. No fear and no grief.
23:59 (41:30) لَّا تَخَافُوا۟ وَلَا تَحْزَنُوا۟
24:01 In Arabic. Have no fear no grief. And we had a profound example in the last two weeks.
24:07 Do you remember what I talked about last time when I was here? Anybody remembers? Yes. about
24:15 the righteous do not die. Dr. Sabahi remembers. I'm sure all of you remember. The KHUTBAH was
24:21 a revelation. It started with a question from Lisa as to what happens to righteous and as you know in the
24:29 Quran, God repeats YASLOONAKA "they ask you" QOL "say" They ask you. Say. When a question is posed
24:36 God sends the revelation through Gabriel to tell us what the answer is or if we are speculating
24:46 then God will send Gabriel with assurance as to what is the correct answer to the question.
24:53 So, I shared with you last time that the righteous do not die. They go straight to
24:59 heaven and I wrote it down in the Perspective and I mailed it to everybody. So, even yesterday
25:12 Was it yesterday or the day before yesterday, the Saudi guy calls from Chicago?
25:17 The day before yesterday, he called and talked to me for an hour and sarcastically he said
25:29 "Okay. What was Gabriel's latest revelation?" He was ridiculing and mocking. I thought the last
25:37 revelation Gabriel came was that the righteous do not die. They go straight to heaven
25:42 and after I finished talking with him. This was quite a reminder.
25:47 I then I called Egypt and I found out that my mother went to
25:50 heaven on Monday which is the day that Soad made that discovery.
25:56 And she considered it to be the happiest day of her life. It's an assurance from God. He sent the
26:04 angel. He says "have no fear. Have no grief." And then, you know that your mother made it to Heaven. She
26:11 didn't die. She simply... also the information that I got are very assuring. OK. She tell the
26:20 servant go make me a cup of tea. Servant comes back in two minutes and she's gone. So, she's in a good
26:26 mood. You usually ask for a cup of tea when you're perfectly happy. You're gonna sip the tea, watch the TV
26:33 or something. And if you remember what I told you in the last KHUTBAH. I said the angels come and
26:40 invite the righteous person to go to heaven and says "yeah! Really?!" They go. They probably told her "you're not gonna wait
26:46 for the cup of tea?" "What?! Are you kidding?!" So, there were many many many strange signs that happened to assure me. OK.
26:59 In order to do the funeral prayer, they went to the mosque and in that mosque, there were only two believers that we know
27:08 and one of them at least would be here for the conference in September.
27:14 His name is Mustafa Sherbat.
27:18 They... they already pushed a known KAFIR to lead the prayer, you know a disbeliever whom I know
27:25 also, an idol worshipper and then Mustafa... Oh, Mustafa opened the Quran when he went
27:31 in and the verse that came out was "God cites the example of Pharaoh's wife."
27:39 That's an example of the believers, Pharaoh's wife. "She prayed to God please build a mansion for me
27:45 in Paradise with You and save me from the wicked people." So, that was the verse he read. This is the
27:52 first sign. And then Mustafa said "I don't know why all of a sudden they put the other
27:58 guy and they pushed me and to lead the prayer. So, Mustafa, a believer, went in to lead the
28:06 prayer. We're gonna have a prayer immediately after the Friday prayer. We'll have a prayer for her.
28:13 So, a believer was chosen to lead the prayer and he said... now this embarrasses me a little bit but
28:18 I have to say it. I'm sharing it with you. But he said "the intention that came out I didn't want to say it
28:25 I had no intention of saying it but this is how it came out." He said
28:29 نویت مصلی علی روح ام عبدک و رسولک رشاد خلیفه
28:34 This is what came out of his mouth. He said "I intend to
28:38 pray for the soul of the mother of your servant and your messenger Rashad Khalifa." Mustafa is a
28:43 believer anyway, but he said he had no intention at all of saying this. OK. So, they go for the
28:53 burial and they made ZIKR around the... after the burial and they're both, the two believers, Mustafa and Sharif,
29:01 They told me on the phone "we were amazed at the number of LA ILLAHA ILLA ALLAH that we said" around her.
29:06 They were just saying LA ILLAHA ILLA ALLAH for about an hour and nothing else. Just LA ILLAHA ILLA ALLAH. So, what I'm saying is
29:13 that God is teaching us through one of us cause that, of course, the unbelievers who will say "oh, he wrote
29:24 this because his mother died." Whatever they're gonna say. But we you... we know that I said it
29:30 last Friday, two weeks ago and I printed it and I made it and after this, we give the news.
29:37 So, the angels, literally, the angels come down to you and tell you "have no grief and have no fear."
29:50 I think I have to mention my father here who was... I tried with him very hard to believe but
29:56 he refused to believe. The family had decided to bury my mother with my father. He decided
30:04 and She decided. Everyone decided. But my father is an idol now himself by his followers. And
30:11 I know for a fact... there's something else... that he died as a disbeliever and I was taken from here
30:17 literally... taken... carried from here, there just before he died to give him the last warning even
30:24 though I didn't intend to. I had no intention of talking to him about religion, but he insisted and
30:29 I... God let me know that he died as a disbeliever. God also let me know that my mother died as a
30:34 believer. I think I failed to mention this but all her life since I was 2 years old, I heard her say to
30:41 my father "those saints are helpless and powerless. They're dead. Only God can help you, God alone."
30:46 She was saying. She was saying "God alone" all her life. So, I... I know for a fact that she's a believer and this
30:53 all fits the... the total picture. So, when they went to bury her according to the family's wishes
31:00 his followers or idol worshipers who want to build a mausoleum around him and worship him, they didn't
31:09 want anybody else with him. They think... they thought that she will pollute the grave or something. So, God saved her
31:18 from that situation and she's buried with her mother whom I know also to be a believer. It's just
31:24 all the things that happened are just fantastic. Now, here is the trick. When my father died, I was
31:30 sad because he died a disbeliever and he is a man I loved very much. When he died, I was sad. When my
31:37 mother died, I'm happy, I was happy because of what God sent down that the righteous do not die. They
31:43 go on to... to Paradise. So, immediately after the Friday prayer, we will pray the two RAK'ATs of the
31:50 funeral... you know how to do it now because of Maya's circumstances. AQEM AL-SALAT.
31:58 ALLAH-O AKBAR. ALLAH-O AKBAR. LA ILLAHA ILLA ALLAH.
32:03 If you want to mention a name, you can just say Rashad's mother. God will know what you're doing, but her name is Zeynab.
