The text by the challenger is in Blue - The answer is in Black. For your convenience the challenge is represented by it's main objections/points. We've not taken the time to answer arguments that are not fact or source based. An example of such an argument would be a reference to false data without listing a single example of such data. 

Challenger pleads: Please have patience with me....

Inspite of my purest motives and intentions, I guess, there still will be mistakes in this work of mine. Some of them may be serious while the others superficial. (Imo every human work suffer from some mistakes.) 

That is true, every human being, including prophets and messengers, make some mistakes. 

Particularly, because sources of arabic language are not accessible to me in an adequate measure. And a single one incorectly translated word generates new and new errors since translation of a sentence directly influence how the others will be understood and translated.

But....

Nevetheless, whatever is good at this web-site comes from The God, and whatever is bad and incorrect is up to me. From my previous works I know that when a certain time pass (by) I will most probably change some of my opinions currently published at this site. I am still in process of learning and probably with the time I will have a better understanding and better access to the dictionaries and other sources of arabic language - in which The Reading is revealed. It seems that this proces is unavoidable. I will strive to purify my work from time to time and to present The God`s doctrine faithfully. I think that I have presented the main principles of it exactly, and probably made mistakes in some details.

Whether you understand know Arabic or not has absolutely nothing to do with how well you understand the Quran. Understanding Arabic is by no means a criteria for having full access to the Quran. To read more about this, please click here. 

The essence of the Quran is available and revealed to any sincere believer, regardless of language they study it in (26:198-200). 

About your intentions: God says that those who reject God's Messenger of the Covenant are the evil ones.  

[3:81] GOD took a covenant from the prophets, saying, "I will give you the scripture and wisdom. Afterwards, a messenger will come to confirm all existing scriptures. You shall believe in him and support him." He said, "Do you agree with this, and pledge to fulfill this covenant?"
They said, "We agree." He said, "You have thus borne witness, and I bear witness along with you."

[3:82] Those who reject this (Quranic prophecy) are the evil ones.

[9:107] There are those who abuse the masjid by practicing idol worship, dividing the believers, and providing comfort to those who oppose GOD and His messenger. They solemnly swear: "Our intentions are honorable!" GOD bears witness that they are liars.

[4:62] How will it be when a disaster hits them, as a consequence of their own works? They will come to you then and swear by GOD: "Our intentions were good and righteous!"

That is scary isn't it. Here we see that people can be absolutely convinced of being right when they are absolutely wrong. The solution to helping ourselves, fight our own inner enemy, our own jinn, that wishes for us to go astray, is to kill our ego and make sure that have grounds for all of our beliefs in the Quran. 

As I have said some of the errors may be serious.Sometimes it`s very hard to get rid of inherited preconceptions, preconcieved notions, prejudices and particularly old way of thinking. I have a feling that these errors are somehow unavoidable and that they represent a kind of trial. How do we react if we are warned of our errors? Do we admit our unperfect- deeply human- nature? Do we correct them as our knowledge increases and understanding matures or we insist on "our", or old, way of thinking etc. etc.

We cannot fool ourselves. Being misguided is not a merit. We ALL have the seed of wrong thinking in us. That is why we are here....to get rid of our wrong thinking/belief. It is NOT ok to be slack about our beliefs or standpoints when it comes to God, placing them to the 'I'm-only-human-blame-box'. What makes some human beings good, destined for eternal Paradise, and other bad, destined for eternal Hell, is how seriously they take on the task of ridding themselves of their wrong thinking. 

We strongly suggest you start being more clear about what you are referring to when you speak of different 'things'. Speaking about your feelings about 'it' without actually saying what 'it' referrs to is, or at least shouldn't be, of any value to a serious reader. 

We will explain what we really mean when we say 'wrong thinking'. We are here to clean our hearts and minds of the idea we once entertained that God alone is not enough, that there could or should be someone or something else besides God with independent power. Most people that come to this half-way house to Hell (Earth) continue to entertain this blasphemous idea, some even spend a lot of time and resources to silence those who do the opposite. To read all about the reason why we are all here, click here. 

I believe it`s not the mistakes that counts(they are facts of life) but the response to them-as said by someone. A great part of articles are few years old. And it is somehow hard to rewrite them-it take a lot of time and energy. But, nevertheless, I believe they are worthy of reading .They offer some morals/lectures inspite of their possible faults, mistakes and imperfections. 

Most of us are aware that our belief and submission to God is a working progress, a process in which we move from stage to stage (84:19), where God willing our knowledge increases. If that awareness is coupled with real knowledge from the Quran, you will also be fearful of saying things about God which are not true, as this is forbidden by God. 

[7:33] Say, "My Lord prohibits only evil deeds, be they obvious or hidden, and sins, and unjustifiable aggression, and to set up beside GOD powerless idols, and to say about GOD what you do not know."

Life is not as easy as monopoly however, and we cannot write a home made 'get out of jail card' (personal disclaimer) to be freed of responsibility when it comes to these serious matters. If you know that there are things out there on the world wide web that you have published that are not in accordance with what you now know to be true, it is your responsibility to correct it as soon as possible. 

You claim that you article offer valuable lectures?! What would those be? Could you please be more specific and list them, instead of just speaking about 'them', but never actually saying what 'they' are!

Somewhere I was hasty, somewhere, it seems, I got maybe too harsh in my critic, somewhere rash in judging others. I pray to The God to forgive me(if that was case) and to give me power to correct that places, I hope no one will felt insulted. My intention is to point out to mistakes and warn the people of straying from the path of The God`s book, and not quarreling, egoistic disputes and personal attacks.

The way we stay out of straying, quarreling, egoistic disputes and personal attacks, is by submitting to God. Confusion starts when people have different opinions about what is from God and not. We say that the 114 suras and 6346 verses in the Quran are all from God, and should be our ultimate source of reference, as the Quran says in 5:48. What do you say?

God will forgive us if we sincerely repent and correct our wrong-doing. If we repent and keep doing the same thing, He will not forgive us. If you know that you've made a mistake before and published unjust accusations, untrue or biased facts, your soul will benefit if you correct your wrongs and start to do better. 

Also, publishing of an article or linking to a web-site does not necessarilly represents my automatic approval of the same, be it in a part or as a whole. I often publish the works because of their thought provoking content, inspite of possible mistakes inside it.

I repeat, I am fully aware that my work contains errors and mistakes, I am sure I am not able of writing a perfect book, but what I hope is to provoke and stimulate others to the study and I believe that at least the main principles that I plead for are true and correct-and it is expected from the reader to check all the details himself.

What exactly are those main principles? They only 'principles', or rather constants in your articles so far are the rejection of God's Messenger of the Covenant, the rejection of abiding by the Quran alone as our source, the insisting on raising prophet Muhammad above all other prophets agains God's will. 

Please do not hesitate to write to me and warn me of my mistakes, and bear with me… All the best, I wish you peace, well-being and salvation!

As we now have. Take heed and submit to God alone, as He invites you to. You never know when it will be too late. It is your soul, your eternal life that is at stake here. 

Now that you've made your case that you are all about peaceful and respectful discussions, let's move onto your attacks on God, Rashad Khalifa, the proven message he was sent to support, and the believers who support the Quranic message he confirmed. 

An Important Notice!/Disclaimer

Code 19 is a recently(1970`s) founded doctrine(though there are some who claims the opposite). At the first sight it appears quite attractive to many people, particulary to those who believe or/and would like to believe in the Quran. The doctrine (or/and its proponents) asserts that it serves as a God given sign/stamp of divine authorship of The Quran. Its proponents claim that it explains many verses of the Gods Book(particularly Quran) whose meaning was unknown until these days. Allegedly, it represents a God given mathematico-numerical sign/system embeded in the Quran which has remained hidden until 20th century, when was the Gods plan to reveal it, in a scientific age, when all things are looked, examined and judged by science, logic and its tools- in the most appropriate time. "The sign" could be easy appreciate by almost anyone cause it is"easy to understand and impossible to immitate", it is, as its proponnents insist, an objective, scientific and physical evidence of Gods existence and/or of the divine autorship of the Quran" -a sign perfectly suitable to the scientifico-sceptical age in which we live.

Many people claimed that it convinced them of divine design of the Quran and increased their faith. And truly, when you read the books which propagate the code its quite hard to stay calm or unimpressed by numerico- mathematical featurs presented, as well as, verses of the Quran allegedly related to it. The proponents of the code plea that all the people should acept the theory. They claim that it brings benefits to all; convince christians, jews and muslims, convince atheists, introduces a new wind in the world of theology- according to Rashad Khalifa, who is according to many, discoverer of the code- (i am paraphrasing):"we don't have to believe anymore now we clearly know that God, J-day, eternal life is true/reality".

BUT....

However, it is only true at the first sight, this is only what it appears to be, after a superficial and non detail study/research, particularly, if the research wasn't carefull and guided by the precepts set by The God`s Criterion(Quran). The attractive outlook of the code and its alleged usefullnes, intelectual challenge and all other alleged benefits of the theory are just a misleading mask. Under the surface the things are Quite opposite. Under the surface a monster is hidden. 

Here we go....

Old proverb "All is not gold that glitters" has found its full fulfilement in the case of the Code 19. Code 19, more precisely, that what is propagated as the code, can not benefit, nor guide, nor increase faith but only contributes to the opposite and can do only harm and misguidance and provoke Gods wrath upon its believers and folowers.

It was propagated as a scientific work but it appears that its was tottaly unscientific work, full of errors, false datas, unscientific methods etc. It prove itself as a total negation of the science(and its proponents proved themselves as negators and neglectors of science). It was propagated as a physical evidence, but finaly it was exposed as a hearsay. 

Hearsay is definately not a reliable source, so may God protect us from following that. Thank God we know that the Quran is perfect and fully detailed and that we should not follow other sources besides it, such as the hearsay that were written down after being passed down across eight generations of what the prophet had supposedly said (Hadith) and done (Sunna). 

It fights against the "blind faith" , yet it requires an incredible amount of it and actually based itself on that very same thing. It claimed to increase faith, but what it has done was exactly the opposite. It claimed bringing certainity and firm belief in the book, but it actualy brought uncertainity to its believers and folowers and made them doubt the book and reject its various parts (be it in theory or praxis)and made them reject the main principles of the book and forced them to conjecturing and ascribing partners to the God, it forced them to breaking of Gods laws and to sectarianism. Its an irony of idolworship. 

The real irony here is that despite your efforts to reduce God's powerful miracle from God to a tool of Satan with your words, is that you are not even able to come up with any solid arguments about what people who accept the miracle supposedly doubt, what parts of the Quran they reject, and how you think they are ascribing partners with God or how they break God's laws. You are taking the role of an accuser without putting forth any solid accusation. 

The fact of the matter is that the function of the mathematical miracle of the Quran was not to bring anything new, but to confirm existing scriptures and existing practices. As the absolute majority of the so-called Muslims, Christians and Jews today are NOT following their own scriptures, these powerful news and proofs have been met with hatred and outrage. As it turns out, people are much more eager to preserve and protect their inherited ideas EVEN IF they are wrong. 

Idol worship, by definition, is ascribing power to other entities besides God. Muslims do it daily by adding importance to Muhammad, Ali and the saints, hoping for them to play a role in their salvation. They insist on commemorating their names alongside God's name, and will NOT be content if they are only to commemorate the name of their Creator. The Christians have deified Jesus and are idol worshiping him and his mother against their will. The head of the Catholic Church believe that Jesus is God. He is one of the worst representatives of flagrant idol worship in the world, but the so-called 'Muslim' world are much more friendly to him and his alikes than they are to people who strive to uphold the Quran alone. Why is that?!

The reason for that is because people, under normal conditions, are only really bothered by the beliefs of others when it is free from the element of idol worship. Belief that is purely dedicated to God alone serves as a threat and a reminder of their own wrong-doings. Believers are a threat because they understand God's message the way it should be understood, thus exposing those who seek to keep people in the dark, to maintain control, or expose those who simply wish to stay in the dark for (temporary) convenience. To understand this entire issue, it is important to study why we are here. The Bible gave us part of the picture. With the revelation of the Quran however, God gave us the complete picture. To read the entire explanation, from the Quran, click here. 

While, was he introducing, presenting, proving and defending his theory, Rashad Khalifa(as well as his followers, supporters and like minded people-believers in the code) used the same sectarian methods which he was allegedly fighting against. Rashad`s and the believer`s and follower`s of the code treatment, understanding and  interpretation of the Quran is a clasiscal example of abusive usage, treatment and interpretation of quranic ayats(see 3/7). It is performed in a typical sunni/shia sectarian style proving again again that code 19 doctrine is but a clasical sunnie/shia sect hidden behind "quran alone" mantle.

Besides rejection of the hadith(a source of religion not approved by God and the Quran), in almost every other quranic topic they treated Quran as, and folowed the rules of interpretation set by, their ancestors rather than by The God and the Quran itself.

If there is anything we are doing that is not based on the Quran, please let us know what it is and provide us with the verses to support your claim. We are not interested in your personal opinions. Neither should you be.  

Here are few of things that are typical of this sect whenever they are engaged in understanding/interpreting of the Quran and justyfying and proving their point of view. You will find almost all of this pattern true in almost all cases:
-The Verse mistranslated
-The Verse (or words of a verse) taken totally out of context
-The verse isolated of the rest of the Quran
-If correlated with/to other verses then its done in a worse manner and with/to those verses who are totally uncorrelated with the subject
-Most fantastic and ludicrous allegorical meaning attached to the verse
-Verses explained with their human inovations, by humans and not by God, that is, by other verses of Quran.
-All this supported by/with numerology and mathemathics or divinely inspire d sayings of Rashad(they have their own set of hadiths- numerical, as well as, textual-appendices of Rashads translaton of The Quran), very often presenting false datas, making manipulation with the metod of counting, changing criterias of counting and performing calculations. The Numbers are studied in a very subjective way and  allways changing criteria of how and what is looked for, except that it must be somehow related to 19, Rashad, years of the discovery and other years from code `s or Rashads biography etc. And what is most important -the confirming and proving of something by the numerology is NOT approved by God.

All of these baseless allegations are listed in the long list of articles below, all of which have been sufficiently answered.  

3/7
"He it is Who has revealed the Book to you; some of its ayats are decisive(muhkamaat), they are the basis/source/returning place(ummu) of the Book, and others are mutashabihat/undecisive(their meaning is not well established); then as for those in whose hearts there is perversity they follow the part of it which is undecisive(-mu-tashabih), seeking to mislead/discord and seeking (to give it their own?) interpretation. But none knows its interpretation except Allah. And those who are firmly rooted in knowledge say: We believe in it, it is all from our Lord; and none do mind except those having understanding"

What we will present here to you is a result of our long study of the topic. We judged the code by Gods given criteria in the book. But what you will find here is not simply restricted only to exposing and disproving of a teaching of an obscure, blasphemous, and misleading sect. If that was the case, we believe such a huge work would be almost redundant and unusefull.We believe you can learn much, much more from our work. 

You can learn a principles of the Quran-you can atain some of the knowledge of The Gods book-Gods teaching,what is of the primary importance for the final destiny of each man, and you can learn a lot about man his and his tendencies to distort the book, creates sect, reject Gods message, make mischief on the earth , lie upon God, and quarell with Him(which is important to avoid). 

The verses below will serve as reminders for the serious reader to disregard the author(s) own testimonies to their alleged righteousness and good intentions. There is only one way for you to know whether someone has good intentions or not, and that is to scrutinize their conclusions against the ultimate reference - the Quran. 

[2:204] Among the people, one may impress you with his utterances concerning this life, and may even call upon GOD to witness his innermost thoughts, while he is a most ardent opponent.

[6:112] We have permitted the enemies of every prophet - human and jinn devils - to inspire in each other fancy words, in order to deceive. Had your Lord willed, they would not have done it. You shall disregard them and their fabrications.

We believe that all inumerable sects(strongly condemned by God) use to appear in a certain pattern, in a way common to all the sects. Their innumerable and most amazing differences are only superficial manifestations of the real (and allways the same) internal causes of the schismes. We offer you a remedy for sectarianism directly from the book of God.

As it turns out, God offers the entire world a remedy for sectarianism, by inviting the whole world to return to the worship of Him alone, and recognize that the Quran is the only perfectly preserved scripture. This powerful reminder was revealed, as prophecied in the Bible and in the Quran, through God's Messenger of the Covenant. The authors of this challenge, and those who think like them, are in fact seeking to divert your eyes from what he presented. What they always fail to mention is that their real dispute is not with the miracle per say, but with the conclusions that followed as a consequence of it. Those conclusions included recognizing the fact that Muslims had fallen into the trap of idolizing their prophet in the same way the Christians had, adding Muhammad's name to their prayers and attributing to him the power and authority to forgive and save souls. All of which goes directly against the Quranic teachings. (39:45, 72:18, 2:48, 9:80). 

The religion become divided into sects when people have different opinions about WHAT is and is not from God, and WHO should and should not be revered/followe/worshiped. God has sent a perpetual and verifiable sign telling the world that we should follow the Quran alone and worship God alone. As simple as that. But, as it turns out, that is way too simple for most people, who insist upon making the religion difficult, when God made it easy for us (5:6). 

Besides , that is a metod of God himself, throughout the book you can find many occurences of Gods teaching humanity through- first citing and bringing examples of the wrong deeds and beliefs of the people and then exposing their absurdity and defining the correct deeds and beliefs and giving different divine decrees in regerds of every particular topic.

Enjoy our humble efforts and work.

Here, we will present to you a several interesting articles and excerpts from numerous debates on the topic, that took place (mainly) at Rope forum, a place in the cyber-space, where students of the Quran from all sides of the world used to gather and discuss its signs and wisdoms and all that is related to it. And we will provide you with links useful for further investigation of this phenomenon.
