who is the satan ?

Satan A.K.A Iblis our most ardent enemy.

He decreed for you the same religion decreed for Noah, and what we inspired to you, and what we decreed for Abraham, Moses, and Jesus "You shall uphold this one religion, and do not divide it."
The idol worshipers will greatly resent what you invite them to do. GOD redeems to Himself whomever He wills; He guides to Himself only those who totally submit.

There is no god beside GOD.
There is no god except GOD.

Say, "I am no more than a human being like you, who has been inspired that your god is one god. You shall be devoted to Him, and ask His forgiveness. Woe to the idol worshipers.

We have inspired you, as we inspired Noah and the prophets after him. And we inspired Abraham, Ismail, Isaac, Jacob, the Patriarchs, Jesus, Job, Jonah, Aaron, and Solomon. And we gave David the Psalms.

Peace

Unfortunately the "submitter" sect continues to misrepresent what is meant by following the way of Abraham.

They take this to mean that there was a body of rituals that Abraham was given to perform to attain righteousness.

This idea is indeed what Satan is using to dupe the "submitter" sect to a false path. There are no rituals.

There are no Rituals (Relgion Practices/Duties), that is what you say,
If somebody tell the Truth the Quran shall Advocate them and the Truth.

I Follow the Perfect Religion of Abraham.

They said, "You have to be Jewish or Christian, to be guided." Say, "We follow the religion of Abraham - monotheism - he never was an idol worshiper."

Say, "My Lord has guided me in a straight path - the perfect religion of Abraham, monotheism. He never was an idol worshiper."

As Abraham raised the foundations of the shrine, together with Ismail (they prayed) "Our Lord, accept this from us. You are the Hearer, the Omniscient.

"Our Lord, make us submitters to You, and from our descendants let there be a community of submitters to You. Teach us the rites of our religion, and redeem us. You are the Redeemer, Most Merciful.

Then we inspired you (Muhammad) to follow the religion of Abraham, the monotheist; he never was an idol worshiper.

The way of Abraham is the use of one's intellect and faculties to discover the signs of the God around one. Witness that Abraham found his Lord through contemplation.

Believing the sun, moon, and stars were his lords till he discovered the truth of monotheism (see 675-&gt

You don't speek the Truth, Abraham didn't believe that the sun, moon or Stars were his Lords and nowhere in the Verse is the word "believe", don't change the word that are in the Quran with your Thong.
Abraham say "MAYBE" and when somebody say "MAYBE" he is not sure, the person Doubt about something

Recall that Abraham said to his father Azar, "How could you worship statues as gods? I see that you and your people have gone far astray."

We showed Abraham the marvels of the heavens and the earth, and blessed him with certainty

When the night fell, he saw a shining planet. "Maybe this is my Lord," he said. When it disappeared, he said, "I do not like (gods) that disappear."

When he saw the moon rising, he said, "Maybe this is my Lord!" When it disappeared, he said, "Unless my Lord guides me, I will be with the strayers."

When he saw the sun rising, he said, "This must be my Lord. This is the biggest." But when it set, he said, "O my people, I denounce your idolatry.

"I have devoted myself absolutely to the One who initiated the heavens and the earth; I will never be an idol worshiper."

GOD thus explains His revelations for you, that you may understand.

The Most Gracious.
Teacher of the Quran.

GOD is the light of the heavens and the earth. The allegory of His light is that of a concave mirror behind a lamp that is placed inside a glass container. The glass container is like a bright, pearl-like star. The fuel thereof is supplied from a blessed oil-producing tree, that is neither eastern, nor western. Its oil is almost self-radiating; needs no fire to ignite it. Light upon light. GOD guides to His light whoever wills (to be guided). GOD thus cites the parables for the people. GOD is fully aware of all things.

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.

With it, GOD guides those who seek His approval. He guides them to the paths of peace, leads them out of darkness into the light by His leave, and guides them in a straight path.

He is the One who helps you, together with His angels, to lead you out of darkness into the light. He is Most Merciful towards the believers.

There are 5 Contact Prayers/ Salat in 1 day.

(1) The Dawn Prayer (Fajr in Arabic) given in 11114, 2458
You shall observe the Contact Prayers (Salat) at both ends of the day, and during the night. The righteous works wipe out the evil works. This is a reminder for those who would take heed.
O you who believe, permission must be requested by your servants and the children who have not attained puberty (before entering your rooms). This is to be done in three instances - before the Dawn Prayer, at noon when you change your clothes to rest, and after the Night Prayer. These are three private times for you. At other times, it is not wrong for you or them to mingle with one another. GOD thus clarifies the revelations for you. GOD is Omniscient, Most Wise.

(2) The Noon Prayer (Zuher in Arabic) , given in 1778 and 3018
You shall observe the Contact Prayer (Salat) when the sun declines from its highest point at noon, as it moves towards sunset. You shall also observe (the recitation of) the Quran at dawn. (Reciting) the Quran at dawn is witnessed.
All praise is due to Him in the heavens and the earth, throughout the evening, as well as in the middle of your day.

(3) The Afternoon Prayer (Asr in Arabic), given in 2238
You shall consistently observe the Contact Prayers, especially the middle prayer, and devote yourselves totally to GOD.

(4) The sunset Prayer (Maghrib in Arabic), given in 11114
You shall observe the Contact Prayers (Salat) at both ends of the day, and during the night. The righteous works wipe out the evil works. This is a reminder for those who would take heed.

(5) The Night Prayer (Isha in Arabic), given in 2458
O you who believe, permission must be requested by your servants and the children who have not attained puberty (before entering your rooms). This is to be done in three instances - before the Dawn Prayer, at noon when you change your clothes to rest, and after the Night Prayer. These are three private times for you. At other times, it is not wrong for you or them to mingle with one another. GOD thus clarifies the revelations for you. GOD is Omniscient, Most Wise.

Abraham Original Source of the Contact Prayers

The Quran teaches us in many suras that Submission (in Arabic "Islam&quot is the religion of Abraham (2135, 395, 4125, 6161 and 227. Muhammad was a follower of Abraham, as we learn from 16123. All religious practices in Submission (Islam) were given to us through Abraham; they include
(1) the five daily Contact Prayers (Salat),
(2) the obligatory charity (Zakat),
(3) the fasting during Ramadan, and
(4) the Hajj Pilgrimage to Mecca.

Specifically, we learn from the Quran (2173) that the Contact Prayers (Salat) and the obligatory charity (Zakat) were given to Abraham.

Numerous verses throughout the Quran inform us that the Contact Prayers were in existence, intact, and practiced before the advent of Muhammad (see for example 835 & 954).

All positions of the Contact Prayers are found in the Quran, including the standing position (339, 399), the bowing and prostration positions (Rukoo' and Sajood) (243, 343, 9112, 2226,77).

The Five Times Are Specified in the Quran

(1) The Dawn Prayer is mentioned by name in 2458. Before sunrise.
(2) The Noon Prayer is specified in 1778. When the sun declines.
(3) The Afternoon Prayer is in 2238. Midway between noon & sunset.
(4) The Sunset Prayer is mentioned in 11114. Immediately after sunset.
(5) The Night Prayer is in 11114, and is mentioned by name in 2458.

The Call to Prayer (Azaan)

Azaan is not part of the Contact Prayers, nor is it required. But it has become a tradition in the Muslim communities to summon the people to prayer through a loud announcement. The original Azaan used to conform with the Quran's teachings, but became corrupted with time.

Originally, the call to prayer consisted of
(1) Allahu Akbar (God is Great), 4 times.
(2) Laa elaaha Ellaa Allah (There is no god beside God), once.

Many years later, some people added Muhammad's name to the Azaan. This violates God's commandments in 2136, 2285, 384, 4150 and 7218. Later, other groups of Muslims added the names of Ali and family. Today the Azaan is severely corrupted throughout the Muslim world, and constitutes idol worship, not Submission to God ALONE.

The Correct Azaan

If you pray by yourself, an Azaan is not needed. The Azaan is usually observed when a group of people are ready to observe the prayer. One person stands up and utters the Azaan words, or chants them as follows

Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar (God is great, God is great).
Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar.
Laa Elaaha Ella Allah (There is no god besides God).

Preparation for the Contact Prayer (The Ablution)

O you who believe, in preparation for the Contact Prayer, you shall
(1) wash your faces,
(2) wash your arms to the elbows,
(3) wipe your heads with wet hands, and
(4) wash your feet to the ankles.

Like all other aspects of Submission, the Muslims have corrupted the ablution by adding unauthorized steps. Ironically, the innovations became vested with such authority that anyone who questions them finds himself accused of innovation!!

It is therefore crucial to uphold God's commands by strictly observing the ablution decreed in the Quran. Any additional steps represent another god besides God.

The Major Ablution

Following any sexual activity that results in a climax (orgasm/ejaculation), one must bath or take a shower (443).

The Dry Ablution (Tayammum)

If water is not available, one must touch clean dry soil, then wipe his hands and face. This suffices as a substitute for ablution (443, 56).

What Nullifies Ablution

Digestive excretions through the intestines, including gas, solids, or urine nullify ablution. Sleeping also nullifies ablution, since one becomes unaware. Thus one may observe a number of Contact Prayers with one ablution, provided he or she does not go to the bathroom, pass gas, or fall asleep.

HOW TO PERFORM THE CONTACT PRAYERS

1. Face the direction of Mecca (Qiblah)

This is an organizational point decreed by God in 2125. God wills that all submitters must face the same direction when they observe the contact prayers. In the U.S.A., the direction is slightly South of East.

2. The Intention

In your own language, secretly or audibly, state your intention that you are about to observe the Contact Prayer. Remember to state the time (Dawn, Noon, Afternoon, Sunset, or Night).

3. Raise your hands to the sides of your face

Your thumbs touch your ears, and the palms of your hands face forward.

4. Say "Allahu Akbar".

As you raise your hands to the sides of your face, then move them down to your sides in a continuous motion, you say, "Allahu Akbar" (God is Great). This opens up the prayer. You are in contact with your Creator.

5. The Standing Position

You are now standing with you arms resting naturally at your side. Some people place the left hand on the stomach, and the right hand on top of the left hand. Either position is correct - you may place your hands on your stomach while standing, or you may let your arms hang down by your sides.

6. Recite "The Key" (Sura 1) in Arabic

We learn from 237 that God gives us the words by which we establish contact with Him. We must utter the specific sounds dictated in "The Key". A translation of "The Key" would be human-made. The Arabic sounds of "The Key" represent a numerical combination that opens the treasure. Like a telephone number, unless a specific numbers are dialed, contact cannot be established. This is all the Arabic you need. Everything else can be said in your language. Reciting "The Key" in Arabic unifies all Submitters of the world, regardless of their languages.

1. BISMIL LAAHIR RAHMAANIR RAHEEM.
   (In the name of GOD, Most Gracious, Most Merciful)
2. AL HAMDU LILLAHI RABBIL `AALAMEEN.
   (Praise be to GOD, Lord of the universe)
3. AR RAHMAANIR RAHEEM.
   (Most Gracious, Most Merciful)
4. MAALIKI YAWMID DEEN.
   (Master of the Day of Judgment)
5. EYYAAKA NABUDU, WA EYYAAKA NASTAEEN.
   (You alone we worship; You alone we ask for help)
6. EH'DENAS SIRAATAL MUSTAQEEM.
   (Guide us in the right path)
7. SIRAATAL LAZINA ANAMTA ALAYHIM; GHAYRIL
   MAGHDOOBI `ALAYHIM WALADDAALEEN.
   (the path of those whom You blessed; not of those who have deserved
   wrath, nor of the strayers)

Since "The Key" is recited 17 times a day, it will become easy for you to recite and understand in a few weeks; it will become like your mother tongue.

7. The bowing position (Rukoo)

After reciting "The Key" while standing, you bow down into the position of Rukoo`. As shown in the figure, you bow down from the waist, keep the knees straight, and place your hands on your knees. Your eyes look at a point about 2 feet in front of you.

As you move from the standing position to the bowing position you say, "Allahu Akbar".

While bowing you say "Subhaana Rabbiyal Azeem" or "Glory be to God, the Great" or "God be glorified" for short.

8 Stand Up

As you stand up from the bowing position to the standing position you say, "Sami`Allahu Liman Hamidah" or "God responds to those who praise Him".

You stay in the standing position only a second, then you fall prostrate. As you go from the standing position to the prostration position you say, "Allahu Akbar".

9. The Prostration Position (Sujood)

From the standing position you go down on your knees, then place your forehead on the floor about 1-2 feet in front of your knees.

During prostration you say, "Subhaana Rabbiyal A`laa" or ?Glory be to God, the Most

High? or "God be glorified" for short

10. The Sitting Position.

As you sit up from the prostration position, you say, "Allahu Akbar." You remain in the sitting position only for a second, then you go down for the second prostration.

As you go down for the second prostration you say, "Allahu Akbar."

During the second prostration you say, "Subhaana Rabbiyal Alaa" or ?Glory be to God, the Most High? or "God be glorified" for short Once you complete the second prostration, you have completed one full unit (Rakah).

11. Stand up for the second unity (Rak`ah).

As you stand up you say, "Allahu Akbar."

The Dawn Prayer

This Contact Prayer consists of 2 units.

Repeat steps 5 through 11.

Thus, when you get from the second prostration you say, "Allahu Akbar," and assume the sitting position. While in the sitting position you pronounce the First Pillar of Submission, the shahhaadah

Ash-Hadu Allaa Elaaha Ellaa Allah, Wahdahu Laa Shareeka Lah.
(I bear witness that there is no other god beside God. He ALONE is God; He has no partner).

Look to the right and say, "Assalaamu Alaikum," then to the left and say the same. This completes the Dawn Prayer.

The Noon Prayer

This prayer consists of 4 units. Thus, you do the first two units exactly as explained for the Dawn Prayer up to the sitting position. You pronounce the First Pillar (known as "Shahaadah&quot then you stand up for the third unit. You do not utter the Salaams (Assalamu Alaikum).

As you stand up for the third unit you say, "Allahu Akbar." The third and fourth units are identical to the first two units.

When you get up from the second prostration of the fourth unit, you say "Allahu Akbar" and you assume the sitting position. In the sitting position you pronounce the Shahaahah, and you say the Salaams on both sides. This concludes the Noon Prayer.

The Afternoon Prayer

This prayer is identical to the Noon Prayer. Only the "Intention" of course is different.

The Sunset Prayer

This prayer consists of three units. Thus, when you complete the second prostration of the third unit you do not stand up; you assume the sitting position, recite the Shahaadah, then you utter the Salaams on both sides. This concludes the Sunset Prayer.

The Night Prayer

This prayer is identical with the other 4-unit prayers, the Noon and the Afternoon Prayers.

The Contact Prayers and The Quran's Mathematical Code

As noted above, the Dawn, Noon, Afternoon, Sunset, and the Night Prayers consist of 2, 4, 4, 3, & 4 units, respectively. When we put these 5 numbers next to each other we get 24434, and this number is a multiple of 19 (24434 = 19 x 1286). The common denominator of the Quran's code is 19. This phenomenon confirms that the number of units for each Contact Prayer has been preserved intact, but the sequence 2, 4, 4, 3, and 4 is also confirmed.

Your Tone of Voice During the Contact Prayers

You shall not be too loud during your Contact Prayers, nor shall you say them secretly; you shall maintain an intermediate tone .

During a group prayer, only the Imam is audible; everyone else listens.

The Group Prayer

Two or more people may observe the Contact prayers together. One person leads the group prayer, uttering "The Key" in a loud enough voice to be heard by everyone in the group. Other utterances must be silent. Anyone may join the group late, in the middle of the prayer. He or she must make the same moves as the group. Then, at the end of the prayer, he or she must stand up and make up whatever portion was missed.

The Friday Prayer

The Friday Congregational Prayer (Salat Al_Jum`ah) is so important, a whole sura is entitled "Friday" and a commandment is decreed in Verse 629 to observe this prayer. Every Submitter - man, woman, and child - is commanded by God to observe the Friday Congregational Prayer.

The Friday Prayer replaces the Noon Prayer every Friday. Instead of 4 units, the Friday Prayer consists of listening to two sermons delivered by the Imam, and two units of prayer.

Each sermon must begin with "Al-Hamdu Lillah" (Praise be to God), "Laa elaaha Ellaa Allah" (No other god besides God). Each sermon should last 10-15 minutes and must be delivered in the language of the congregation. At the end of the first sermon, the congregation is asked to repent, "Tooboo Ela Allah." The Imam then sits down for about a minute and makes his repentance together with the congregation, then stands up for the second sermon. The second sermon ends by asking one of the people to say Azaan. The Imam leads the 2-unit prayer.

At the end of every Prayer

The worshippers may shake hands, hug each other, and /or exchange greetings after completing the prayer. The custom is to say to each other, "Congratulations." This is because the Contact Prayers are a gift from God, that helps us nourish and develop our souls. One should be congratulated upon completing such a blessed accomplishment.

I seek refuge in God from Satan the rejected

In the name of God. Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Summary

Satan always changes his face and his tricks. With the advent of the new era of Qurans's mathematical miracle and the call to follow the Quran ALONE, Satan is raising a new banner of deception that also reads Quran ALONE and claimed many members. This presentation clarifies the falsehood of these members' beliefs.

As time changes, so does Satan's technique. Our generation was blessed by witnessing the Mathematical Miracle of the Quran that God called "One of the great miracles." 7435.

This miracle provided a physical proof for the authenticity of the Quran and for the messenger of the covenant, 381, and for the specific reasons mentioned in 7431. The miracle and the messenger of the covenant pointed the believers to the main theme of the Quran, follow the Quran alone.

Satan who has duped the majority of the Muslims into following the Hadiths and Sunna for over 1400 years has been forced now to change his techniques. He has to find a way to fight the mathematical miracle of the Quran and the Quran and raise a different banner than "obey the messenger by following his sayings and actions, i.e. hadiths and Sunna."

Using Satan's new technique, new cults appeared claiming to follow Quran alone, some of them are even speaking mathematics and some claiming messengership with no proof. After all, Satan is not going to leave the new trend of the believers, follow Quran alone, without being part of it. At least Satan knows he has to use this phrase to lure new members into following him from the generations who are now seeking to follow the Quran alone.

Under the disguise of following the Quran alone, these individuals, rejected the messenger of the covenant or his teachings from the Quran, and bent on inventing their own new version of Islam (Submission) using as they claim "Quran alone". They rejected the rituals of Hajj, salat, zakat and fasting as preached by the messenger of the covenant from the Quran. They provided new rituals built on their own interpretation of some verses in the Quran while rejecting the rest of the verses in the Quran that teaches exactly where the rituals of Islam (Submission) are coming from. Some of them are still waiting for God to show him/her how to do such practices. They want to receive the message personally.

As for him who opposes the messenger, after the guidance has been pointed out to him, and follows other than the believers' way, we will direct him in the direction he has chosen, and commit him to Hell; what a miserable destiny!

While these individuals claim to follow the Quran alone, they do miss some very important Quranic teachings that clearly distinguish between them and those who truly follow the Quran alone.

Here is what the Quran teaches, if you follow the Quran ALONE;

(1) Islam (submission) is OLDER than the Quran. Abraham was the founder of Islam (Submission) as a religion with certain rituals and practices, see 2278. All God's prophets, however, preached the same message, submission to God alone, and that is why Noah for example is described as a Muslim (Submitter) in the Quran, 1072. All and any rituals of Islam (submission) appeared in the Quran ONLY after Abraham.

(2) God is teaching us a very important principle in 237, After Adam sinned, he could not just repent on his own using his own words, or inventing his own ritual. "Then, Adam received from his Lord words, whereby He redeemed him. He is the Redeemer, Most Merciful.

(3) All rituals of Islam (submission) were given to Abraham (not Muhammed), this includes, Hajj, salat,zakat and fasting. All these rituals are OLDER than the Quran. Abraham and/or Ismail did not just invent their own version of salat, zakat, Hajj or fasting as the new Satanic cult leaders are doing . They learned their lessons from Adam (237) and thus asked God to teach them the rituals of Islam (Submission) to get close to Him. In 2128 we see Abraham and Ismail implore God to teach them "THE RELIGIOUS PRACTICES OF ISLAM"

"As Abraham raised the foundation of Kaaba, together with Ismail, they prayed, 'Our Lord, accept this work from us; You are the Hearer, the Omniscient. Our Lord, and make us Muslims (Submitters) to You and from our descendants let there be a nation of Muslims (Submitters) to you; AND TEACH US HOW TO PRACTICE OUR RELIGIOUS DUTIES, and redeem us; You are the Redeemer, the Merciful'" 2127-128

"And we granted him Isaac and Jacob as a gift, and we made them both righteous. We made them imams who guided in accordance with our commandments, and we taught them how to work righteousness, and how to observe the Contact Prayers (Salat) and the obligatory charity (Zakat). To us, they were devoted worshipers."

See Also, the meaning of Milat Abraham;

Religion of Abraham/Millat Ibraheem.

(4) God's system did not include that everyone of us will receive the message personally or receive the rituals personally or invent his/her own rituals and practices, see 7452. God taught these rituals and practices to Abraham and Ismail and they went around teaching the people what they were taught. God chose the right system to pass these rituals to us, pass it on from one generation to the next one. If you trust in God you know He is perfect and knows the best system to achieve the fairest test, after all we are here in this life for a test. He knows that some of these rituals will be corrupted along the passing and He therefore sent messengers, prophets and scriptures to correct these rituals as needed. When the Quran was revealed, it corrected the parts of those rituals that had been corrupted over the years. The mentioning of other names besides the name of God, the practice of Wudu, sexual relations during the fasting of Ramadan, were restored, just to mention a few examples. As we learn from 1664, only the duties that were/are/will be corrupted and disputed, were/are corrected in the Quran.

We have revealed this scripture to you, to point out for them what they dispute, and to provide guidance and mercy for people who believe.

(5) Muhammed was told to follow the religion of Abraham, see 16123. This includes THE Salat, Hajj, Zakat, fasting and Shahada. He was not told to follow the religion of Noah (He did not receive any rituals although he was a submitter), nor the religion of Moses or Jesus (they were just followers of Abraham). To emphasize Abraham, is to emphasize what he received, the rituals and practices of Islam (submission). Muhammed was not left to invent His own rituals and practices, even from the Quran alone, he was clearly instructed to follow the religion of Abraham. Muhammed was ordered to start these practices before the whole Quran was revealed to him. He was following the Quran alone without the Quran being complete at the time. The rituals and practices of Islam (Submission) were, however already complete.

(6) The third revelation given to Muhammed (sura 73) , and about 20 years before the delivery of the whole Quran, Muhammed was ordered to perform THE Salat and pay THE Zakat. He had nothing else to go with it, except what the followers of Abraham in his time were doing. He was not ordered to wait for the whole Quran to find the salat and zakat in it. They were already in use and practice for thousands of years before Muhammed. Quran later, made the needed correction in what was corrupted and did not GIVE ALL the rituals back to Muhammed, it has already been given to Abraham. No where in the Quran does God say He gave the rituals and practices of Islam (submission)to Muhammed in the Quran. He already told us who asked for them and who received them. It is interesting to know that the first revelation of the Quran, sura 96, talked about salat as well and so did the furth revelation, sura74. This hppened about 20 years befroe the completin of the Quran.

(7) The rituals were passed generation to generation from Abraham to Muhammed then from Muhammed's generation to us, as God chose for His rituals. As corruption sneaked in (through Hadiths and Sunna), even with the Quran available, a strong proof of the Quran represented by the mathematical miracle was sent and the highlights of the new corruption and its correction was again done by the messenger of the covenant, using the Quran ALONE. God was not to change His system and send his message or correction of the corruption to everyone personally. The messenger of the covenant was destined to do so. His advent was also meant to be a big test for those who will be given his message. Neither the miracle nor the messenger were to be accepted by everyone as the system goes. Satan has to be given his own cult who will claim to follow Quran alone and they would start inventing new ways to practice Islam (submission) as it pleases them . God's system never change.

( Whenever God spoke of these rituals and practices in the Quran He used the definition "The" (AL in Arabic), therefore God is speaking in the Quran about THE Salat, THE, Zakat, THE Hajj, THE Fasting and THE Shahada, and not A Salat, A Zakat, A Hajj, A Fasting or A Shahada. The reason is clear, all of them were already well known to Muhammed during His time and they are not just ANY Salat, ANY Zakat, ANY Hajj or ANY Shahada. They are the ones given to Abraham and Ismail when they implored God to teach them their rituals. Look up the definition of THE in the dictionary.

(9) You will find in the Quran, for example, words like "THE" Umrah, Safa and Marwa , congregational prayers, sacred months and Arafat described as the Quran teaches about Hajj. None of these terms is explained in the Quran, not because the Quran is NOT complete, but because God already taught us that all these rituals are to be inherited and learned from previous generations and are well known to them. We cannot sit here and imagine what salat, zakat, fasting, the four sacred months, Umrah,, Safa, Marwah, or Arafat are , or invent new meaning for them or new ways to practice what needs to be practiced in them. That is what the new Satanic cult leaders have been doing in defiance of the Quran. We did not choose that, but God did, and He highlighted the purpose of all religious practice in the Quran for us so we can use our judgment. ALL RITUALS should be devoted to GOD ALONE.

(10) As for those who think they will invent all the rituals of Islam, salat, zakat, Hajj, fasting and shahada anew, from their personal understanding of the " Quran ALONE", they have not understood their Quran that teaches them otherwise. Or refused to accept that they were already given to Abraham. Or they have no trust in God that he will keep safe the correct practice. They chose to follow the personal opinion of someone else who claims to know the Quran better and who claims to be a better choice to give the messsage than God's choice, the messenger of the Covenant. Quran is our litmus test for these rituals we inherited if we have doubt. If what we inherited and corrected by our messengers do not contradict the Quran then we are safe. Inventing new rituals using every individual's personal understanding of the Quran as some did or do is a misguidance and hypocrisy condemned by God and is a direct violation of the message in the Quran ALONE. Muhammed himself did not have the whole Quran to do any of the rituals of Islam (Submission). We cannot take part of the Quran and refuse part. Quran is complete, perfect and fully detailed because it tells us in detail, where we can find our rituals, correct the corrupted ones and set the standard to measure any allegation of devotion to God alone.

(11) Satan will never stop using new tricks and we should never let our guards down.

(12) We do not need to be with those who claim "Quran ALONE" when they are not following but their personal opinion. We need to be with those who truly follow the Quran ALONE and are happy to get the message as God chose to give it without waiting for the message to be given to them personally, 1828.

(13) We are not dismissing those who worship God alone ,652 and 460, but we are required to dismiss those who worship other than God, including but not limited to worshipers of their ego and their personal opinions. We are not to share the same Masjid with them. They are a distraction and confusing to others. See 9107-108

(14) The WRONG kind of UNITY

He said, "You worship beside GOD powerless idols due to peer pressure, just to preserve some friendship among you in this worldly life. But then, on the Day of Resurrection, you will disown one another, and curse one another. Your destiny is Hell, wherein you cannot help one another."

"Our Lord, let not our hearts waver, now that You have guided us. Shower us with Your mercy; You are the Grantor.

I seek refuge in God from Satan the rejected

In the name of God. Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Surely, those who slide back, after the guidance has been manifested to them, the devil has enticed them and led them on.

This is because they said to those who hated what GOD has sent down, "We will obey you in certain matters." GOD fully knows their secret conspiracies.

How will it be for them when the angels put them to death? They will beat them on their faces and their rear ends.

This is because they followed what angered GOD and hated the things that please Him. Consequently, He has nullified their works.

Did those who harbor doubts in their hearts think that GOD will not bring out their evil thoughts?

If we will, we can expose them for you, so that you can recognize them just by looking at them. However, you can recognize them by the way they talk. GOD is fully aware of all your works.

We will certainly put you to the test, in order to distinguish those among you who strive, and steadfastly persevere. We must expose your true qualities.

Those who disbelieve and repel from the path of GOD, and oppose the messenger after the guidance has been manifested for them, will never hurt GOD in the least. Instead, He nullifies their works.

O you who believe, you shall obey GOD, and obey the messenger. Otherwise, all your works will be in vain.

On that day, the hypocrite men and women will say to those who believed, "Please allow us to absorb some of your light." It will be said, "Go back behind you, and seek light." A barrier will be set up between them, whose gate separates mercy on the inner side, from retribution on the outer side.

They will call upon them, "Were we not with you?" They will answer, "Yes, but you cheated your souls, hesitated, doubted, and became misled by wishful thinking, until GOD's judgment came. You were diverted from GOD by illusions.
Do not obey the rejectors.

They wish that you compromise, so they too can compromise.

" `Among us are the submitters, and among us are the compromisers.' " As for those who submitted, they are on the right path.

As for the compromisers, they will be fuel for Gehenna.

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.

You shall never pray in such a masjid. A masjid that is established on the basis of righteousness from the first day is more worthy of your praying therein. In it, there are people who love to be purified. GOD loves those who purify themselves.

Most of them follow nothing but conjecture, and conjecture is no substitute for the truth. GOD is fully aware of everything they do.

We did not send before you any messenger, nor a prophet, without having the devil interfere in his wishes. GOD then nullifies what the devil has done. GOD perfects His revelations. GOD is Omniscient, Most Wise.

He thus sets up the devil's scheme as a test for those who harbor doubts in their hearts, and those whose hearts are hardened. The wicked must remain with the opposition.

Those who are blessed with knowledge will recognize the truth from your Lord, then believe in it, and their hearts will readily accept it. Most assuredly, GOD guides the believers in the right path.

Have they failed to recognize their messenger? Is this why they are disregarding him?

Have they decided that he is crazy? Indeed, he has brought the truth to them, but most of them hate the truth.

Indeed, if the truth conformed to their wishes, there would be chaos in the heavens and the earth; everything in them would be corrupted. We have given them their proof, but they are disregarding their proof.

The day will come when the transgressor will bite his hands (in anguish) and say, "Alas, I wish I had followed the path with the messenger.

"Alas, woe to me, I wish I did not take that person as a friend.

"He has led me away from the message after it came to me. Indeed, the devil lets down his human victims."
Muhammad was no more than a messenger like the messengers before him. Should he die or get killed, would you turn back on your heels? Anyone who turns back on his heels, does not hurt GOD in the least. GOD rewards those who are appreciative.

Praise be God.

Abraham Original Source of the Contact Prayers

The Quran teaches us in many suras that Submission (in Arabic "Islam") is the religion of Abraham (2135, 395, 4125, 6161 and 227. Muhammad was a follower of Abraham, as we learn from 16123. All religious practices in Submission (Islam) were given to us through Abraham; they include
(1) the five daily Contact Prayers (Salat),
(2) the obligatory charity (Zakat),
(3) the fasting during Ramadan, and
(4) the Hajj Pilgrimage to Mecca.

Specifically, we learn from the Quran (2173) that the Contact Prayers (Salat) and the obligatory charity (Zakat) were given to Abraham.

Numerous verses throughout the Quran inform us that the Contact Prayers were in existence, intact, and practiced before the advent of Muhammad (see for example 835 & 954).

All positions of the Contact Prayers are found in the Quran, including the standing position (339, 399), the bowing and prostration positions (Rukoo' and Sajood) (243, 343, 9112, 2226,77).

The Five Times Are Specified in the Quran

(1) The Dawn Prayer is mentioned by name in 2458. Before sunrise.
(2) The Noon Prayer is specified in 1778. When the sun declines.
(3) The Afternoon Prayer is in 2238. Midway between noon & sunset.
(4) The Sunset Prayer is mentioned in 11114. Immediately after sunset.
(5) The Night Prayer is in 11114, and is mentioned by name in 2458.

The Call to Prayer (Azaan)

Azaan is not part of the Contact Prayers, nor is it required. But it has become a tradition in the Muslim communities to summon the people to prayer through a loud announcement. The original Azaan used to conform with the Quran's teachings, but became corrupted with time.

Originally, the call to prayer consisted of
(1) Allahu Akbar (God is Great), 4 times.
(2) Laa elaaha Ellaa Allah (There is no god beside God), once.

Many years later, some people added Muhammad's name to the Azaan. This violates God's commandments in 2136, 2285, 384, 4150 and 7218. Later, other groups of Muslims added the names of Ali and family. Today the Azaan is severely corrupted throughout the Muslim world, and constitutes idol worship, not Submission to God ALONE.

The Correct Azaan

If you pray by yourself, an Azaan is not needed. The Azaan is usually observed when a group of people are ready to observe the prayer. One person stands up and utters the Azaan words, or chants them as follows

Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar (God is great, God is great).
Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar.
Laa Elaaha Ella Allah (There is no god besides God).

Preparation for the Contact Prayer (The Ablution)

O you who believe, in preparation for the Contact Prayer, you shall
(1) wash your faces,
(2) wash your arms to the elbows,
(3) wipe your heads with wet hands, and
(4) wash your feet to the ankles.

Like all other aspects of Submission, the Muslims have corrupted the ablution by adding unauthorized steps. Ironically, the innovations became vested with such authority that anyone who questions them finds himself accused of innovation!!

It is therefore crucial to uphold God's commands by strictly observing the ablution decreed in the Quran. Any additional steps represent another god besides God.

The Major Ablution

Following any sexual activity that results in a climax (orgasm/ejaculation), one must bath or take a shower (443).

The Dry Ablution (Tayammum)

If water is not available, one must touch clean dry soil, then wipe his hands and face. This suffices as a substitute for ablution (443, 56).

What Nullifies Ablution

Digestive excretions through the intestines, including gas, solids, or urine nullify ablution. Sleeping also nullifies ablution, since one becomes unaware. Thus one may observe a number of Contact Prayers with one ablution, provided he or she does not go to the bathroom, pass gas, or fall asleep.

HOW TO PERFORM THE CONTACT PRAYERS

1. Face the direction of Mecca (Qiblah)

This is an organizational point decreed by God in 2125. God wills that all submitters must face the same direction when they observe the contact prayers. In the U.S.A., the direction is slightly South of East.

2. The Intention

In your own language, secretly or audibly, state your intention that you are about to observe the Contact Prayer. Remember to state the time (Dawn, Noon, Afternoon, Sunset, or Night).

3. Raise your hands to the sides of your face

http//www.submission.org/images/m19.gif

Your thumbs touch your ears, and the palms of your hands face forward.

4. Say "Allahu Akbar".

http//www.submission.org/images/m1b.gif

As you raise your hands to the sides of your face, then move them down to your sides in a continuous motion, you say, "Allahu Akbar" (God is Great). This opens up the prayer. You are in contact with your Creator.

5. The Standing Position

http//www.submission.org/images/m2.gif

You are now standing with you arms resting naturally at your side. Some people place the left hand on the stomach, and the right hand on top of the left hand. Either position is correct - you may place your hands on your stomach while standing, or you may let your arms hang down by your sides.

6. Recite "The Key" (Sura 1) in Arabic

We learn from 237 that God gives us the words by which we establish contact with Him. We must utter the specific sounds dictated in "The Key". A translation of "The Key" would be human-made. The Arabic sounds of "The Key" represent a numerical combination that opens the treasure. Like a telephone number, unless a specific numbers are dialed, contact cannot be established. This is all the Arabic you need. Everything else can be said in your language. Reciting "The Key" in Arabic unifies all Submitters of the world, regardless of their languages.

1. BISMIL LAAHIR RAHMAANIR RAHEEM.
   (In the name of GOD, Most Gracious, Most Merciful)
2. AL HAMDU LILLAHI RABBIL `AALAMEEN.
   (Praise be to GOD, Lord of the universe)
3. AR RAHMAANIR RAHEEM.
   (Most Gracious, Most Merciful)
4. MAALIKI YAWMID DEEN.
   (Master of the Day of Judgment)
5. EYYAAKA NABUDU, WA EYYAAKA NASTAEEN.
   (You alone we worship; You alone we ask for help)
6. EH'DENAS SIRAATAL MUSTAQEEM.
   (Guide us in the right path)
7. SIRAATAL LAZINA ANAMTA ALAYHIM; GHAYRIL
   MAGHDOOBI `ALAYHIM WALADDAALEEN.
   (the path of those whom You blessed; not of those who have deserved
   wrath, nor of the strayers)

Since "The Key" is recited 17 times a day, it will become easy for you to recite and understand in a few weeks; it will become like your mother tongue.

7. The bowing position (Rukoo)

http//www.submission.org/images/m3.gif

After reciting "The Key" while standing, you bow down into the position of Rukoo`. As shown in the figure, you bow down from the waist, keep the knees straight, and place your hands on your knees. Your eyes look at a point about 2 feet in front of you.

As you move from the standing position to the bowing position you say, "Allahu Akbar".

While bowing you say "Subhaana Rabbiyal Azeem" or "Glory be to God, the Great" or "God be glorified" for short.

8 Stand Up

http//www.submission.org/images/m4.gif

As you stand up from the bowing position to the standing position you say, "Sami`Allahu Liman Hamidah" or "God responds to those who praise Him".

You stay in the standing position only a second, then you fall prostrate. As you go from the standing position to the prostration position you say, "Allahu Akbar".

9. The Prostration Position (Sujood)
   http//www.submission.org/images/m55.gif

From the standing position you go down on your knees, then place your forehead on the floor about 1-2 feet in front of your knees.

During prostration you say, "Subhaana Rabbiyal A`laa" or ?Glory be to God, the Most

High? or "God be glorified" for short

10. The Sitting Position.

http//www.submission.org/images/m66.gif

As you sit up from the prostration position, you say, "Allahu Akbar." You remain in the sitting position only for a second, then you go down for the second prostration.

As you go down for the second prostration you say, "Allahu Akbar."

During the second prostration you say, "Subhaana Rabbiyal Alaa" or ?Glory be to God, the Most High? or "God be glorified" for short Once you complete the second prostration, you have completed one full unit (Rakah).

11. Stand up for the second unity (Rak`ah).

As you stand up you say, "Allahu Akbar."

The Dawn Prayer

This Contact Prayer consists of 2 units.

Repeat steps 5 through 11.

http//www.submission.org/images/m66.gif

Thus, when you get from the second prostration you say, "Allahu Akbar," and assume the sitting position. While in the sitting position you pronounce the First Pillar of Submission, the shahhaadah

Ash-Hadu Allaa Elaaha Ellaa Allah, Wahdahu Laa Shareeka Lah.
(I bear witness that there is no other god beside God. He ALONE is God; He has no partner).

Look to the right and say, "Assalaamu Alaikum," then to the left and say the same. This completes the Dawn Prayer.

The Noon Prayer

This prayer consists of 4 units. Thus, you do the first two units exactly as explained for the Dawn Prayer up to the sitting position. You pronounce the First Pillar (known as "Shahaadah") then you stand up for the third unit. You do not utter the Salaams (Assalamu Alaikum).

As you stand up for the third unit you say, "Allahu Akbar." The third and fourth units are identical to the first two units.

When you get up from the second prostration of the fourth unit, you say "Allahu Akbar" and you assume the sitting position. In the sitting position you pronounce the Shahaahah, and you say the Salaams on both sides. This concludes the Noon Prayer.

The Afternoon Prayer

This prayer is identical to the Noon Prayer. Only the "Intention" of course is different.

The Sunset Prayer

This prayer consists of three units. Thus, when you complete the second prostration of the third unit you do not stand up; you assume the sitting position, recite the Shahaadah, then you utter the Salaams on both sides. This concludes the Sunset Prayer.

The Night Prayer

This prayer is identical with the other 4-unit prayers, the Noon and the Afternoon Prayers.

The Contact Prayers and The Quran's Mathematical Code

As noted above, the Dawn, Noon, Afternoon, Sunset, and the Night Prayers consist of 2, 4, 4, 3, & 4 units, respectively. When we put these 5 numbers next to each other we get 24434, and this number is a multiple of 19 (24434 = 19 x 1286). The common denominator of the Quran's code is 19. This phenomenon confirms that the number of units for each Contact Prayer has been preserved intact, but the sequence 2, 4, 4, 3, and 4 is also confirmed.

Your Tone of Voice During the Contact Prayers

You shall not be too loud during your Contact Prayers, nor shall you say them secretly; you shall maintain an intermediate tone .

During a group prayer, only the Imam is audible; everyone else listens.

The Group Prayer

Two or more people may observe the Contact prayers together. One person leads the group prayer, uttering "The Key" in a loud enough voice to be heard by everyone in the group. Other utterances must be silent. Anyone may join the group late, in the middle of the prayer. He or she must make the same moves as the group. Then, at the end of the prayer, he or she must stand up and make up whatever portion was missed.

The Friday Prayer

The Friday Congregational Prayer (Salat Al_Jum`ah) is so important, a whole sura is entitled "Friday" and a commandment is decreed in Verse 629 to observe this prayer. Every Submitter - man, woman, and child - is commanded by God to observe the Friday Congregational Prayer.

The Friday Prayer replaces the Noon Prayer every Friday. Instead of 4 units, the Friday Prayer consists of listening to two sermons delivered by the Imam, and two units of prayer.

Each sermon must begin with "Al-Hamdu Lillah" (Praise be to God), "Laa elaaha Ellaa Allah" (No other god besides God). Each sermon should last 10-15 minutes and must be delivered in the language of the congregation. At the end of the first sermon, the congregation is asked to repent, "Tooboo Ela Allah." The Imam then sits down for about a minute and makes his repentance together with the congregation, then stands up for the second sermon. The second sermon ends by asking one of the people to say Azaan. The Imam leads the 2-unit prayer.

At the end of every Prayer

The worshippers may shake hands, hug each other, and /or exchange greetings after completing the prayer. The custom is to say to each other, "Congratulations." This is because the Contact Prayers are a gift from God, that helps us nourish and develop our souls. One should be congratulated upon completing such a blessed accomplishment.

One of the most asked question that we get is the title of this page.

This question of potential believers exposes lack of knowledge of the Quran as well as proves that their religion, as practiced, is based purely on heresy and conjecture of their parents, scholars or local mullahs.

There are three implications of the Question above

1. An implication that challenges God's assertion and a subconscious effort to prove that God is wrong in His repeated assertions that Quran is "Complete", "Perfect" and "Fully Detailed".

2. An implication that Hadith contains the details of Salat and therefore Hadith other than the Quran can be used for religious law.

3- An implication that God is wrong in teaching us in the Quran, that all the rituals of Islam, including Salat were given to Abraham.

Those who are knowledgeable of the Quran know that there are two sources for the religion of Islam (Submission in English).

1. The Quran which is COMPLETE, PERFECT and fully details all religious LAW.

2. Religious practices given to Prophet Abraham and passed on to us generation after generation since the time of Abraham.

Quran teaches us in no uncertain terms that Abraham is the founder of Islam as it is practiced today. As such, what did Abraham contribute to our daily life as Muslims?

Quran teaches us that ALL RELIGIOUS PRACTICES IN ISLAM, (Salat, Zakat, Fasting, & Hajj) came to us from Abraham, generation after generation.

Majority of Muslims always ask, how can these practices come to us from Abraham and not from Muhammad. They do not trust that God Almighty can preserve His own religious practices (rituals) to give to us pure, clear and complete.

In other words, all religious practices in Islam existed before Muhammad. Muhammad's sole mission was to deliver the Quran.

"Your ONLY mission (O Muhammad) is to deliver (Quran), while it is we who will call them to account." 1340

"You (O Muhammad) have no duty EXCEPT delivering (Quran)." 4248

"The messenger has no function EXCEPT delivering (Quran)..." 599

It is also interesting to know that many of these Muslims who ask the question do not know that, the Hadith and Sunna books do not have enough information about how to perform Salat, the number of Rakaat (units), or what to say in them.

The Hadiths and Sunna books are rather full of contradictory statements.

NOT a single time, was the prophet Muhammad reported as telling the people; let me tell you how to perform your Salat prayers, or let me tell you the number of Rakaat in the prayers.

Had Muhammad willed or was of his duties to teach the community their prayer and the number of Rakaat, he would have done such that, and in the public arena for everyone to witness it. It never happened. Because the Prophet Muhammad and the people before him were given the ways to pray, handed down from Abraham through generations of believers who kept the prayers intact as God promised. God would not have told Muhammad to follow the religion of Abraham if no one knows or practices that religion.

Abraham was the founder of Islam (Submission in English) as we practice it today, and the one who called us "Muslims" (Submitters in English).

"You shall strive in the cause of God as you should. He has blessed you, and imposed no hardship in your religion; the RELIGION OF YOUR FATHER ABRAHAM, Abraham is the one who named you "Muslims" in the beginning. Thus, the messenger serves as witness among you, just as you serve as a witness among the people. Therefore, you shall observe the Salat prayers, give the Zakat charity, and hold fast to God; He is your Lord; the best Lord, and the best supporter." 2278

"Abraham was neither Jewish , nor Christian; he was a monotheist; a Muslim; he never was an idol-worshiper. The people most worthy of following Abraham are those who follow him and this prophet (Muhammad), and those who believed. God is the Lord of the believers." 367-68

"Then we inspired you (O Muhammad) to follow the religion of Abraham, monotheism; never was he an idol-worshiper." 16123

Logically, if Muhammad was a follower of Abraham, and we are followers of Muhammad, then we are followers of Abraham. What did we and Muhammad learn from Abraham ???

The Quran teaches us that we learned ALL THE RELIGIOUS PRACTICES of Islam from Abraham. The whole Arabian society before and during the time of Muhammad had many followers of the religion of Abraham. Thus Abu Lahab, Abu Jahl, and the idolators of Quraish used to observe Salat prayers as we can see in 833-35.

"...Their SALAT PRAYERS at the shrine were no more than deceit and repulsion. ..."

In Sura 73, few weeks after the revelation of the Quran, 7320 is telling the Muslims to observe the SALAT and Zakat. Does it make sense that God would issue a commandment to observe something not already known.???

"......and observe the SALAT and ZAKAT, and lend God a loan of righteousness. Whatever you advance for your souls, you will find at God better and multiplied manifold....." 7320.

In 2128 we see Abraham and Ismail implore God to teach them "THE RELIGIOUS PRACTICES OF ISLAM"

"As Abraham raised the foundation of Ka'ba, together with Ismail, they prayed, 'Our Lord, accept this work from us; You are the Hearer, the Omniscient. Our Lord, and make us Muslims (Submitters) to You and from our descendants let there be a nation of Muslims (Submitters) to you; AND TEACH US HOW TO PRACTICE OUR RELIGIOUS DUTIES, and redeem us; You are the Redeemer, the Merciful'" 2127-128

The Prophets and Messengers prior to Abraham were not given any religious practices. The human society was so primitive, only BELIEF IN GOD ALONE was all that is required for salvation. See for example Sura 71, entitles "Noah" Thus, religious practices appear in Quran ONLY after ABRAHAM; never before him.

"(O Children of Israel) you shall observe the SALAT PRAYERS & ZAKAT charity; you shall bow down with those who bow." 2125

MORE PROOFS THAT SALAT OBSERVED BEFORE MUHAMMAD.

"O Mary (Mariam), you shall obey your Lord, and shall prostrate and bow down with those who bow down." 343

"(Jesus said) God has made me blessed wherever I go, and He commanded me to observe the SALAT PRAYERS and ZAKAT charity for as long as I live." 1931

But the Jews and Christians lost the SALAT PRAYERS, changed it and invented their own.

"Generations came thereafter who LOST the SALAT prayers, and pursued their lusts." 1959

If we look in the oldest prayer books for the Jews we can still see their prayers very similar to what the Muslims do today, they bow down and fall prostrate. There are remnant of the SALAT prayers among the Jews, namely the Samaritans, and the Christians (the Russian Orthodox Church). It is noteworthy that the Samaritan Jews have denounced the man-made commandments of Talmud, and decided to adhere to the word of God ALONE, i.e. Torah. (See "The Myth of God Incarnate", page 117)

MORE PROOFS

" And we granted him (Abraham) Isaac and Jacob as a gift, and we made them righteous. And we appointed them Imams who guide in accordance with our commandments. AND WE TAUGHT THEM RIGHTEOUS WORKS AND THE OBSERVANCE OF SALAT AND ZAKAT.' 2172-73

Unfortunately, this plain Quranic truth is not accessible by those who keep trying to prove that Quran is not complete. First they have to come to sincere conviction that Quran is complete, perfect and fully detailed; they have to believe their Lord. Once they attain this conviction, the shields will be removed from around their hearts, the deafness will be removed from their ears and they will become worthy of the Quranic truth.

FASTING CAME TO US VIA ABRAHAM then modified in the Quran.

"You are permitted to have sexual intercourse with your wives during the night of fasting; they are your confidantes, and you are their confidantes. God knew that you used to betray your souls in the past. He has redeemed you, and He has pardoned you. Henceforth, you may have intercourse with them, seeking what God has permitted for you." part of 2187

"O you who believe, fasting is decreed for you, AS IT WAS DECREED for those before you, that you may attain salvation." 2183

HAJJ (Pilgrimage) came to us VIA ABRAHAM Please note that the same verse also mention the SALAT prayers bowing down and prostrating.

"We pointed out to Abraham the location of the shrine, and directed him to worship NONE beside Me, and to purify My shrine for those who would visit it, those who would retreat therein, and those who would BOW DOWN AND PROSTRATE. And you shall declare (O Abraham) that the people shall observe HAJJ. They will then come to you , walking or riding, from the farthest places." 2226-27

MORE PRAYERS or SAME PRAYERS ?!

All Muslims (Submitters) know that God ordered us to do five contact prayers (Salat) every day. Traditional sectarian Muslims, call these five prayers, "fard" or obligatory. They believe that there are other prayers (Sunnah) which should also be done for extra credit. However we will illustrate here how the number of prayers, number of units, and even the names of the prayers are mathematically coded. This means that adding prayers disrupts the intricate code that God has created and designed into the contact prayers. Adding extra prayers to what God ordered is like a person taking extra medicine on his own to feel much better than what his/her doctor told him to take, it can kill him instead of helping him. Of course that does not mean that we should not worship to gain extra credit! On the contrary, God tells us exactly what we should do for extra credit.

"During the night, you shall meditate for extra credit, that your Lord may raise you to an honorable rank. And say, "My Lord, admit me an honorable admittance, and let me depart an honorable departure, and grant me from You a powerful support." 1779-80

In this verse and several others, God tells us to meditate on Him and to fall prostrate during the night for extra credit. He does not tell us to do extra Contact prayers (Salat). In fact God tells us

"...the contact prayers (Salat) are decreed for the believers at specific times. " 4103

SALAT (CONTACT PRAYERS ) IN THE QURAN

Many Muslims do not know that all the five prayers are mentioned in the Quran, their time is clearly mentioned in several verses and that all the steps we do are found also in the Quran.

{1} FIVE PRAYERS A DAY AND THEIR TIME

God gave us the times for the Salat (contact Prayers) in the Quran

(1) The Dawn Prayer (Fajr in Arabic) given in 11114, 2458
(2) The Noon Prayer (Zuher in Arabic) , given in 1778 and 3018
(3) The Afternoon Prayer (Asr in Arabic), given in 2238
(4) The sunset Prayer (Maghrib in Arabic), given in 11114
(5) The Night Prayer (Isha in Arabic), given in 2458

As you can see from the Quran, God tells us to do our Contact prayers (Salat) at specific times, and then He tells us what these times are.

{2} TAKBEER (Glorification of God), Allahu Akbar The Takbeer (glorification of God) by saying Allahu Akbar for example can be found in 17111, 2185, 22 37, 743, and 2945

" Say, "Call Him GOD, or call Him the Most Gracious; whichever name you use, to Him belongs the best names." You shall not utter your Contact Prayers (Salat) too loudly, nor secretly; use a moderate tone. And proclaim "Praise be to GOD, who has never begotten a son, nor does He have a partner in His kingship, nor does He need any ally out of weakness," and magnify Him constantly (Kabberho Takbeera)."

See also, the files, "Magnify God" and " God's beautiful names"

{3} READING SURA 1, FATEHA, IN SALAT The mathematical evidence for Sura 1 is overwhelming and should be reviewed. Check the file "Beyond Probability" by Abdullah Arik.

{4} BOWING DOWN (Rukoo) AND FALLING PROSTRATE (Sajood) Where in the Quran;

"O you who believe, you shall bow, prostrate, worship your Lord, and work righteousness, that you may succeed. "

See also, 243, 2125, 555, 9112, 2226 and 4829 For falling prostrate also see; 3113, 4102, 7206, 1315, 1598, 1649, 17107, 1958, 2218, 2564, 4137, 4829, 5362, 7626, and 9619, WHAT WE SAY WHEN WE BOW DOWN "Subhana Rabbya Al-Azeem), can be found in 5674

"You shall glorify the name of your Lord, the Great. ' (Fa-Sabbeh Be-Ism Rabbeka Al-Azeem)

WHAT WE SAY WHEN WE GET UP FROM BOWING DOWN "Sami-a Allahu Le-man Hamedahu" (God hears those who praise Him)

"That is when Zachariah implored his Lord "My Lord, grant me such a good child; You are the Hearer of the prayers."

AND,

"You shall steadfastly persevere in carrying out your Lord's command - you are in our eyes - and glorify and praise your Lord when you get up."

WHAT WE SAY WHEN WE FALL PROSTRATE "Subhana Rabbya Al-A'ala " can be found in 871

"Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High." (Sabbeh Ism Rabbeka Al-A'ala)

{5} SHAHADA (TASHAHHUD)

La Elaha Ella Allah (There is no god but God).

The Shahada recited after the prostration of the second Rakaat and at the end of the prayers can be found in 318. This is the Shahada of God, the angels and those who possess knowledge. The Shahada of the hypocrites can be found in 631

"GOD bears witness that there is no god except He, (La Elaha Ella Ho, Ho in reference to God, Allah ) and so do the angels and those who possess knowledge. Truthfully and equitably, He is the absolute god; there is no god but He, the Almighty, Most Wise."

BUT WHY CAN'T WE........... ?

But why can't we pray more than what God told us to pray ? There are two parts to the answer of this question. The first part has to do with the source of our religious practice. If God tells you in the Quran to pray five specific prayers, and you say," But the Hadith books said to pray more" . Does this mean God does not know what to order ?! Does this mean God is not clear ? when He said the prayers are set for specific times. All Muslims world-wide agree on the five Contact Prayers (Salat), how many units they should be, and when they should be prayed. But no two sects agree on the Sunnah prayers. Isn't this exactly like the example given in the Quran

"God cites the Example of a man who deals with disputing partners (i.e. Hadith), compared to a man who deals with only one consistent source (Quran). Are they the same ? Praise be to God; most of them do not know. (3929)

The second part of the answer has to do with the mathematical proof of the Contact Prayers (Salat).

Units of Contact Prayers

There is no dispute concerning the number of units (Rak'ahs) in all five daily prayers enjoined by God for Abraham and his followers. They are universally accepted to be 2, 4, 4, 3, and 4 units, respectively, for the above prayers listed. These are considered as the obligatory units ordained by God. Other additional units practiced by the traditional Muslims are disputed and vary according to different sects, from none to as many as 10 units per prayer. These extra prayers are con-sidered Sunnah, something that Prophet Muhammad was claimed to have done. However, establishing re-ligious rites that are not authorized by God is a gross offense. Prophet Muhammad or any messenger of God would never disobey God by adding or even slightly changing anything that God had enjoined them to do. People who follow these practices not only disobey God, but they also make the religion difficult for themselves, and for their children. God tells us in the Quran that He does not want hardship for us

He has chosen you and placed no hardship on you in practicing your religion.... (227

Mathematical Confirmation

The total number of units of the five daily Salat prayers is 17 Two units at dawn, four at noon, four in the afternoon, three at sunset, and four at night. These practices were first given to Abraham, and have been preserved since then by his followers, which include Prophet Muhammad. The question often asked is how we can be sure of that. God with His infinite mercy blessed our generation with mathematical confirmations based on the number 19 that the units of the Salat prayers are indeed preserved in accordance with His will.

Fact 1. The units of daily Salat prayers consist of 2, 4, 4, 3, and 4 units, a total of 17 units. The number 24434 is a multi-ple of 19

2 4 4 3 4 = 19 x 1286

The digits of 1286 add up to 17, the total number of units prayed each day (1+2+8+6 = 17).

Furthermore, the units of daily Salat prayers followed by the sequence number of the prayer is also a multiple of 19

2 1 4 2 4 3 3 4 4 5 = 19 x 112759655

Fact 2. The total number of units prayed each day is 17. However, on Fridays the Congregational Prayer replaces the noon prayer. This prayer has only two units instead of the usual four units of noon prayer, because of the Friday sermon. Thus, the total units prayed on Friday is 15. Now, let us take every day of the week, from Saturday to Friday (assuming Friday being the last day of the week), and write down the number of units prayed each day. The resultant number is a multiple of 19

Sat Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri
17 17 17 17 17 17 15 = 19 x.....

Fact 3. Let us insert the number of the day before the units of prayer in each day. The resultant number is also a multiple of 19

Sat Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri
1 17 2 17 3 17 4 17 5 17 6 17 7 15 = 19 x.....

Fact 4. In above table, replace every 17 by 24434 which represents the individual units of daily prayers for Saturday through Thursday, and replace 15 by 22434 which represents the individual units of prayers for Friday. The resultant number is also a multiple of 19

Sat Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri
1 24434 2 24434 3 24434 4 24434 5 24434 6 24434 7 22434 = 19 x..

Fact 5. The same as Fact 3, except take Friday as the first day of the week, instead of the last day. The resultant number is also a multiple of 19

Fri Sat Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu
1 15 2 17 3 17 4 17 5 17 6 17 7 17 = 19 x.....

Fact 6. The same as Fact 4, except again take Friday as the first day of the week, instead of the last day. The resultant number is also a multiple of 19

Fri Sat Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu
1 22434 2 24434 3 24434 4 24434 5 24434 6 24434 7 24434 = 19 x..

How about the word Salat (Contact Prayers ) in the Quran itself ?

The word "Salat" occurs in the Quran 67 times, and when we add the numbers of Suras and verses of these 67 occurrences, the total comes to 4674, or 19x246, another multiple of 19.

One more miracle that shows how much God is in control of everything is the next one. This miracle proves that Sura 1 (Fateha) is the essence of our prayer and that the numbers of bowing and falling prostrate and saying Shahada (Tashahhuds) during our prayers are controlled by God. If we write down the number of the prayers with their bowings, prostrations and Shahadas, we get
Sura 1 Fajr Noon A-noon Sunset Night

1
12241 24482 34482 43362 54482

11224124482344824336254482

This long number consists of the number of the sura that we recite in every prayer, Sura 1, (1) followed by the number of the first prayer (1), then the number of times that we recite sura 1 in this prayer (2 ), then the number of bowings (Rukoo') (i.e. 2), then the number of prostrations (4), then the number of Shahada (Tashahhuds) (1 in first prayer), then we start over again with the number of second prayer (2) followed by the number of sura 1 that we recite in 2nd prayer (4), then the number of bowings (Rukoo') (4) , then the number of prostrations ( in this prayer, then the number of Tashahhuds (2), then the number of the third prayer (3), and so on to the last prayer of the day. This long number is a multiple of 19 and confirms all the minute details of our prayers. Is it a co-incidence ? You be the judge. For more information regarding sura 1 miracle check out "Beyond Probability" by Abdullah Arik.

One may ask what are all these numbers, does God really care. The answer is actually in 7228

"This is to ascertain that they have delivered their Lord's messages. He is fully aware of what they have. HE HAS COUNTED THE NUMBERS OF ALL THINGS." 7228, notice that 7+2+2+8= 19, not another coincidence

From all of these findings we can see that God designed the times of the prayers, the number of units in each prayer, even the names of the prayers in a very specific way. Unfortunately human beings have tendency to make things more complex and difficult than what God gives them.

THE CORRUPTION OF SALAT

Those who refused to believe God in His book, the Quran that the Quran is complete, perfect and fully detailed are deprived by God from performing the correct Salat. God let them wonder in the dark and pick bets and pieces that nullified their Salat for them. They insisted that God is not enough for them and God insisted on leaving them in the dark. God did not wrong them but they are the ones who wronged their own souls.

The following are some specific examples of how Salat has been corrupted and lost its form as given by God and as practiced by the Prophet Muhammad himself . It is the corrupted scholars and their blind followers who practice this corruption up to this time.

CORRUPTION ONE Ablution Verse 56 give four steps for ablution. However, the potential muslims of today have their own rules.

"O you who believe, when you observe the Contact Prayers (Salat), you shall (1) wash your faces, (2) wash your arms to the elbows, (3) wipe your heads, and (4) wash your feet to the ankles"

CORRUPTION TWO

"The places of worship belong to God; do not call on anyone else besides God."

The overwhelming majority of the mosques of the world do not follow the following crucial commandment. The name of Muhammad is placed next to the name of God in most mosques. The name of Muhammad is called upon together with the name of God in Azaan. The Muslims nullify their Salat by adding the name of Muhammad to the shahaada decreed by God "La ellaha ella Allah"

CORRUPTION THREE

"Adam received from his Lord words, whereby God redeemed him; He is the Redeemer, Most Merciful." (237)

Adam had to utter specific words in order to be redeemed by God. Similarly, God has given us specific words - the words of Sura 1, Al fateha, in order to establish daily contact (Salat) with Him, in order to be redeemed. The Muslims of today when praying in congregation ignore the first numbered verse of the Quran, the first verse of sura Al-fatihah, the Basmallah. Instead, when they reach the end of Al-fatihah, they shout in unison "AAAAMEEEN" - a non-Arabic, a non-Quranic word!!!! They removed the verse that has the words of God and added instead a non-Quranic word.

CORRUPTION FOUR

The Quran commands us to use a moderate tone is Salat. But the potential Muslims have their own rules regarding the tone used, they pray in complete silence in some part of the prayers in defiance of the decree in the Quran. in 17110

You shall not utter your Contact Prayers (Salat) too loudly, nor secretly; use a MODERATE tone."

CORRUPTION FIVE

After reciting Al-fatihah the potential Muslims recite other chapters from the Quran. An addition that is not supported by the Quran and which introduces into the Salat other names to share with the name of God, for which our Salat should be devoted. One of their favorite Suras is Sura 112. What logical sense does it make that when we are performing our contact prayers (Salat) that we tell God, "Say/Proclaim, `He is the One..'"!? This statement should be directed to the creatures of God and not to the One who is KNOWER of Everything.

Sura 1121-4 is reproduced below.

Proclaim, "He is the One and only GOD. "The Absolute GOD. "Never did He beget. Nor was He begotten. "None equals Him."

THEY STILL INSIST

Even after showing all this Quranic evidence to those who do not believe God, you will note that they insist on their ways. They may ask you again and after all that ; "Where are the details of SALAT prayers in the Quran" ? Until they decide to believe their Creator in His repeated assertions that the Quran is complete, perfect and fully detailed, they can never see the Quranic truth. This is documented in 1857;

"Who is more wicked than one who is reminded of the verses of His Lord, then disregard them, while unaware of his sin ? Consequently, we place shields on their hearts, to prevent them from understanding (Quran), and deafness in their ears. Thus, if you invite them to the guidance, they can NEVER EVER be guided." 1857

Salaam brother/sister,

God teaches us in the Quran that HE gave all rituals of Islam to Abraham NOT to Muhammad.

"As Abraham raised the foundation of Ka'ba, together with Ismail, they prayed, 'Our Lord, accept this work from us; You are the Hearer, the Omniscient. Our Lord, and make us Muslims (Submitters) to You and from our descendants let there be a nation of Muslims (Submitters) to you; AND TEACH US HOW TO PRACTICE OUR RELIGIOUS DUTIES, and redeem us; You are the Redeemer, the Merciful'" 2127-128

Of course the corruptors of religion tried to give this credit to Muhammad, but their words cannot be accepted in face of what GOD Himself says in the Quran. Quran is the end of Islam, not its beginning as some people imagine. Muhammad was the Last prophet in Islam, but he was its first.

"You shall strive in the cause of God as you should. He has blessed you, and imposed no hardship in your religion; the RELIGION OF YOUR FATHER ABRAHAM, Abraham is the one who named you "Muslims" in the beginning. Thus, the messenger serves as witness among you, just as you serve as a witness among the people. Therefore, you shall observe the Salat prayers, give the Zakat charity, and hold fast to God; He is your Lord; the best Lord, and the best supporter." 2278

"Abraham was neither Jewish , nor Christian; he was a monotheist; a Muslim; he never was an idol-worshiper. The people most worthy of following Abraham are those who follow him and this prophet (Muhammad), and those who believed. God is the Lord of the believers." 367-68

"Then we inspired you (O Muhammad) to follow the religion of Abraham, monotheism; never was he an idol-worshiper." 16123

All rituals of Islam given before the Quran including Salat, Zakat hajj, fasting... as we saw on 2127-128.

God created Hajj to all the Muslims from around the world to meet with Abraham and his children and grand children to teach them and confirm with them the correct practices of Islam. This Hajj practice never stopped since Abraham, several thousands years ago.

Salat came to us through generations after generations who met yearly in Hajj since Abraham and NONE of them ever came back telling the Muslims to do different Salat for example. This universally accepted Salat does not contradict the Quran and goes along the fact that Salat is older than the Quran. In the third revelation of the Quran, 7320, God ordered Muhammad and the believers to do "The" Salat and pay "THE" Zakat, not just any Salat or any Zakat.

This "THE" Salat means it is something already known to Muhammad and the believers and not something left for Muhammad or everyone to innovate.

In brief, every movement or say in our Salat came to us as inherited practice from Abraham who was the first and ONLY prophet to receive rituals of Islam.
