# Friday Rules, Submitter vs. Non-Submitter, Birth Date Sign, Heaven Already Exists {% embed url="" %} (0:00) Alhamdulillah, we praise God. (0:04) Wa ash'hadu an la ilaha illa Allah, wa ah'dahu la sharika lah. (0:07) And we bear witness that there is no other god but the one God. (0:12) Last Friday, Abdullah presented to you evidence that the Friday prayer is mathematically coded, (0:22) that it is required by God to drop all business and come to the Friday prayer. (0:26) He also presented evidence that the two sermons of the Friday prayer are part of the prayer, (0:32) they're counted as, in addition to the two units, they complete the four units. (0:39) So I'm going to ask you to face this way. (0:43) If you're not facing this way, to face this way. (0:45) So can you stand this way? (0:48) Because as if you are in the prayer, you can stay on the chair, as long as you're facing (0:55) this direction, it's okay. (1:00) I have fantastic news for you, but I will keep it for the second khutbah, to ensure (1:06) that everyone who is supposed to be here will be here. (1:10) Meanwhile, I want to thank many of you, most of you, all of you, for wishing me a happy (1:16) birthday, last Friday. (1:19) And I want to use this to reflect on God's omnipotence, and the predetermination of the (1:33) world, so that we have the freedom of choice at the same time. (1:45) The submitter, by definition, submits to God, and believes whatever God says. (1:51) The opposite, the non-submitter, will follow what the parents taught him or her. (1:58) And this is repeated in the Quran in surah 2, verse 170, surah 31, verse 21, and surah (2:06) 43, verses 22 and 23. (2:08) When they are told, the disbelievers, the non-submitters, when they are told to follow (2:13) what God says, they say no, we follow what our parents taught us. (2:18) So this is the difference between a submitter and a non-submitter. (2:21) Because when you are born, you are a new generation, and in your lifetime God will reveal new information. (2:29) And new knowledge, knowledge is increasing in this world. (2:33) And you are required to look at all this new knowledge, and sift through it, and accept (2:40) or reject whatever God wants us to accept or reject. (2:48) But God tells us in the old testament, and the new testament, and the final testament (2:56) to Quran, that he will send a messenger of the covenant. (3:03) So I am going to read some of these with you. (3:09) In the last book of the old testament, here is the new testament. (3:20) The last book of the old testament, Malachi, chapter 3, under the subtitle the messenger (3:29) of the covenant, lo I am sending my messenger to prepare the way before me. (3:36) And suddenly they will come to the temple, the lord whom you seek and the messenger of (3:40) the covenant whom you desire. (3:43) In the new testament, in Luke 17, 22, I am going to read it for you. (4:01) Jesus prophesying the coming of the messenger of the covenant, Jesus said to the disciples (4:08) a time will come when you will long to see one day of the son of man, but you will not see it. (4:14) They will tell you he is to be found in this place or that. (4:18) Do not go running about excitedly, the son of man in his day (4:22) will be like the lightning that flashes from one end of the day to the other. (4:31) First, however, he must suffer much and be rejected by the present age. (4:37) As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be in the days of the son of man. (4:42) They ate and drank, they took husbands and wives, right up to the day Noah entered the ark. (4:48) And when the flood came, it destroyed them all. (4:54) It was much the same in the days of Lot. (4:58) They ate and drank, they bought and sold, they built and planted. (5:04) But on the day Lot left Sodom, fire and brimstone rained down from heaven (5:09) and destroyed them all. It will be like that on the day of the son of man. (5:15) It will be like that on the day the son of man is revealed. (5:19) On that day, if a man is on the rooftop and his belongings are in the house, (5:25) he should not go down to get them. Neither should the man in the field return home. (5:31) Remember Lot's wife, whoever tries to preserve his life will lose it, (5:38) whoever loses it, keeps it. (5:41) And this is relevant to the second sermon, the second khutbah. (5:45) I tell you, on that night, there will be two men in one bed, one will be taken and the other left. (5:54) Two women will be grinding grain together, one will be taken and the other left. (6:00) Also in Matthew 24-27, (6:11) as the lightning from the east flashes to the west, so will the coming of the son of man be. (6:19) So it's going to be every person on earth is going to hear about (6:25) God's plan and the message of the covenant. (6:30) In the final testament, you are all familiar with verse 81 in surah 3, (6:37) where God says that after all the prophets have delivered the messages, (6:40) God will send the message of the covenant to consolidate the messages, (6:47) purify them, and deliver the one message, the one unified message. (6:53) And preach the one unified religion that is acceptable by God. (6:58) This is in the Quran 381. (7:04) From these, looking at the old testament, the new testament, and the final testament, (7:08) and seeing that God is telling us that He will send the message of the covenant, (7:14) and for us to be fortunate to be born at this time, I mean, when will He come? (7:19) The message of the covenant. (7:21) It's going to be some day, like a Tuesday of a week, a certain day of a month. (7:29) We just happen to exist at the time when God is executing this plan. (7:34) And as submitters we are required to believe God. (7:38) And I want to say that the difference between believing God in this respect, (7:45) and disbelieving is the difference between the highest heaven and the lowest pit of hell. (7:52) Therefore it is my responsibility to help you and help myself strengthen our faith, (7:58) strengthen our belief in this regard, so long as we have the absolute proof, (8:04) the physical evidence. (8:08) And this is what I wanted to share with you. (8:28) I talked to my mother this morning, and I asked her, what time was I born? (8:39) And she said, don't ask questions like that. (8:44) I said, okay mom, let me know when to come, today you are doing good night. (8:51) She said, they came in the middle of the night. (8:55) Anyway, she is still giving me instructions, you know. (8:58) It doesn't matter how old you are, you are still a baby. (9:08) November 19th, that was the birthday, and I was thanking you for celebrating it with me. (9:18) And this is a calendar that gives the number of every day of the year. (9:24) And it just happens that November 19th is the only day of the year whose number is a multiple of 19, also. (9:34) Now January 19th is the 19th day of the year, so you don't count that. (9:38) Just like saying one is divisible by one, you know, one is one and it is not divisible. (9:45) So February 19th is the 50th day, it is not divisible by 19. (9:54) March 19th is the 78th day, it is not a multiple of 19. (10:01) The 19th of April is the 109th day, it is number 109, it is not a multiple of 19. (10:09) The 19th of May is 139, number 139, it is not a multiple of 19. (10:16) The 19th of June is number 170, missed by one. (10:23) The 19th of July is number 200. (10:30) The 19th of August is number 231. (10:36) The 19th of September is number 262, it is not a multiple of 19. (10:45) The 19th of October is 292, it is not a multiple of 19. (10:53) November 19th is number 323, it is a multiple of 19. (10:57) The 19th of December is number 353, it is not a multiple of 19. (11:03) So November 19th is the only day of the year whose number is a multiple of 19. (11:07) What does this tell us? (11:10) My mother was sterile for four years before I was born, by the way. (11:15) So, this means God desired to know. (11:20) This tells us about God's power, that he knew in advance that this baby is going to grow (11:25) up and that God has assigned to him finding the code 19 of the Quran, which is very simple. (11:33) Existed in the Quran for 1400 years. (11:38) And I want to quote Batool Kermali's very simple rebuttal of people who say, who don't (11:45) believe, she says, well just explain why did he find the number 19, the code 19. (11:50) So God knew in advance who he was assigning this to, and he picked out the only day of (11:58) the year that is dated 19 and whose number is a multiple of 19. (12:02) There is something else I wanted to say, what is it? (12:09) Yes, now this means 266 days before this date, there has to be a conception. (12:18) When God planned the pregnancy and the birth, and this is before we come to this world. (12:26) This is a time also to share with you a discovery by Azhar Khan. (12:37) These are the Arabic alphabet and the grammatical value of the Arabic alphabet. (12:44) What is that? (12:45) As you know we tell the people that 19 means one. (12:50) The grammatical value of the number 19, or the word one, is 19. (12:57) And 19 is God's signature, when I find 19 is God's signature in all his creation. (13:03) The sun, the moon, you, you have 209 bones in your body, 19 times 11. (13:11) Dr. Sabahi gave us a lecture on the elements in the universe, and the maximum number of (13:16) electrons is 114, a multiple of 19. (13:22) So Azhar Khan put the grammatical values, oh when we tell the people, the skeptics, that (13:31) 19 is the numerical value of the word one, that God is proclaiming there is only one God, (13:36) we shall worship God alone. (13:38) The first commandment in the old testament, the new testament, and the final testament, (13:42) they tell you how do we know that 19 is the value of one. (13:47) Okay, Azhar Khan put the values of these, the grammatical values of all the letters, (13:55) up to 1000, which is the last letter. (13:58) And he found that this number is a multiple of 19. (14:02) So this validates the value of every alphabet letter in the Arabic language. (14:08) And this tells us that God designed the Arabic language, and designed the Quran, with the (14:16) code 19 in it, before the earth was created. (14:20) Therefore it is not too much to also the student who is to research this code 19, is born on (14:30) the 19th day of a month, the only day in the year that is also divisible by 19. (14:38) The purpose of sharing this with you, against my own personal tendency, is because I want (14:48) to strengthen your faith and my faith. (14:52) This is one of the things that God associates with the number 19 in surah 74. (14:56) "...fa yazda'da allatheena amanu imana", that the believers may increase in faith. (15:02) There is another thing, we are using this same alphabet, yesterday my sister compiled (15:10) my name, she numbered them consecutively, regardless of the grammatical values. (15:16) And she calculated my name and it came out 214, the total of the letters. (15:23) So all this tells us that God predetermined and predesigned all these things. (15:29) And all you can say is subhanallah, glory be to God, that he is omnipotent. (15:37) And I better stop at this point, to leave some room for the great news coming up. (15:41) Two point of locks, it depends. (16:03) Alhamdulillah, we praise God. (16:06) "...wa ash'hadu an la ilaha illa allahu wahdahu la sharika lah", and we bear witness that (16:09) there is no other God except the one God. (16:13) The great news that I have for you, I sorted out the three questions by Lisa, and the discussion (16:20) followed, and then as I will share with you the verses of the Quran, we have been reading (16:25) them hundreds of times, but you will see how logical and beautiful they fall together. (16:33) The great news is that the righteous go straight to heaven, this is the great news. (16:39) Then I am going to give you the evidence. (16:41) In other words, they do not... the unrighteous go to death, they die. (16:47) The unrighteous do not really die. (16:52) They certainly move from one stage to the next stage, in a gentle way. (16:59) There is a surah that says that the angels of death snatch the souls of the disbelievers. (17:07) And they beat them up at the time of death. (17:11) In verses, in surah 8 verse 51, in surah 47 verse 27, God is telling us that the angels (17:18) are guarding us now, and serving us. (17:22) When the time comes and the person who dies is a disbeliever, they beat the person, specifically (17:27) on the face and the rear end. (17:31) You can imagine. (17:36) Also, they snatch the soul, because obviously this disbeliever is going to hell. (17:42) But before that there is a period of death and a continuous nightmare. (17:46) This is what the Quran teaches us. (17:48) In surah 40, God says they see hell every day, but they do not enter it until the day (17:56) of resurrection, the day of judgment. (17:58) Because hell is not here yet. (17:59) Now look at God's wisdom and mercy. (18:09) God's wisdom and mercy is that he created heaven first, before we were brought here. (18:18) And he put Adam and Eve there. (18:21) The earth was here, yes it is actually. (18:28) And Adam and Eve were up here in heaven, connected with their bodies down here. (18:34) This is some kind of an invisible connection. (18:37) But the souls of Adam and Eve, this is all allegorical, were up there in heaven, enjoying (18:48) heaven. (18:51) Therefore heaven exists, when they broke God's law they were brought down here, they were (18:56) sucked back into their bodies. (18:59) But heaven exists, and this is where we go, the moment of death. (19:03) It is exactly like when we sleep, when you and I sleep, the righteous, their soul voluntarily (19:11) roams around. (19:13) And this is exactly how the righteous die. (19:16) They just leave their bodies here on earth, and through the bodies disintegrate and go (19:21) away, but that does not matter, because we are going to be coupled again with new bodies (19:25) on the day of resurrection. (19:27) But the righteous go straight to heaven. (19:31) Now here is the startling evidence. (19:34) In the same surah, where God tells us that the edges of death snatch, death is a painful (19:42) process for the unrighteous. (19:45) And the edges snatch their souls out of their bodies. (19:49) They are resisting, and they are being beaten up. (19:53) Because this is the day they receive the bad news. (19:56) At the time of death, every person knows whether he or she is going to heaven or hell, through (20:07) these very clear verses. (20:09) In the same surah God says that the angels invite the righteous. (20:14) It is an invitation, and it is meant by joy. (20:18) It is like the angels come up to you and say, now you can go to heaven. (20:21) You say, really, is it fine? (20:26) So we are told that eagerly, the righteous move on to the next stage, and it is beautiful. (20:36) As the descriptions in surah 2, verse 25, now notice this thing that we read hundreds (20:44) of times, but this is the time that God wants to inform us, and tell us this good news. (20:50) God says give good news to those who believe and lead a righteous life, that they have (20:54) deserved gardens with flowing streams, when provided with a provision of fruits therein. (21:00) They say this is what was provided for us previously. (21:04) The key word here is provision. (21:06) Okay now God says, this is a commandment, in surah 3, verse 69, well let me go in the same (21:15) surah 2 first. (21:18) Surah 2, verse 154, God says, do not say about those who are killed in the cause of (21:24) God, that they are dead. (21:27) Do not say that they are dead. (21:31) Because for they are alive, add the Lord, in this verse it says they are alive but you (21:37) do not perceive. (21:39) This is one. (21:41) In surah 3, verse 169, God says, do not think that those who are killed in the cause of (21:47) God are dead, for they are alive and the Lord being provided. (21:52) The same word is used as in surah 225, provision. (21:58) And then we are told in a number of verses that it is not just, you don't have to fight (22:02) in the cause of God and get a gun or something and get killed. (22:06) That when the righteous die also, that death as a righteous, or being killed in the cause (22:15) of God, either way is the same. (22:19) And we see this in surah 22, verse 58, for example. (22:22) 22, 58. (22:33) That is a good one. (22:35) It is verse 69. (22:41) Now look at 258, it says those who emigrated for the sake of God, then got killed or died, (22:49) either way. (22:51) God will surely shower them with good provisions. (22:53) The same words are being used. (22:56) yasupallahum allahu rizqan hasana, the same repetition of the same words in the same verse. (23:02) So God says do not say about those who die or get killed in the cause of God, as dead. (23:09) We cannot say that, they do not die. (23:12) The righteous do not die, they simply move on from this world to another state on a very (23:18) joyous and very happy day. (23:20) Here is another clue that is really strong, and this is in 44, 56. (23:37) Now we read about the two deaths and two lives, right? (23:45) But these are the disbelievers. (23:47) In surah 40, verse 12, the disbeliever says our lord you put us to death twice, and you (23:54) gave us two lives, is there any way out of hell? (23:58) The disbelievers say that. (24:00) In the beginning, surah 2, God says how can you disbelieve in God when you were dead, (24:07) and he gave you life, then he puts you to death, then he gives you life. (24:10) But this is talking to the disbelievers. (24:13) Now watch what the believers say, in surah 44, verse 56. (24:19) They never taste death therein beyond the first death. (24:23) He has spared them the retribution of hell. (24:27) Now this is a very powerful clue. (24:31) In Arabic it says, except the first death. (24:40) So the second death for the righteous is not death at all. (24:44) It is just like going to sleep, and the angels come and invite you to go on to a fantastic (24:51) place, and it is met with joy and happiness. (24:57) Is this great news or is this great news? (24:59) It is amazing nowadays. (25:02) Let's see what else did I forget here. (25:07) Oh, this is very important. (25:10) I nearly forgot it because now I am going to impress it on you. (25:13) Because you will never forget it, this makes it special, and it is very important. (25:18) In surah 36, verse 20. (25:20) And you can read it again, 36, starting from 20 to 27. (25:28) This gives the whole story away. (25:30) I mean it really proves it. (25:35) 36, 20, surah Yassin. (25:41) It says, a man came running from the other side of the city, saying, (25:49) oh my people, follow the messengers. (25:52) Follow those who do not ask you for any weights and are guided. (25:55) Why should I not worship the one who initiated me, and to him is your ultimate return? (26:03) Shall I set up besides him powerless guards? (26:06) If the most gracious will do any harm for me, their intercession will not help me one bit. (26:12) Nor can they rescue me. (26:15) Then I will be totally astray. (26:18) I have believed in you Lord, please listen to me. (26:21) Now this is a man who is asking his people to worship God alone. (26:25) Number 26, at the time of his death, this is in parenthesis, my own words. (26:32) This should be in the next final translation, I will not use this word, death. (26:39) He was told, listen to this, enter paradise, or enter heaven. (26:45) He said, oh I wish my people knew that my Lord has forgiven me, and made me honorable. (26:53) Now why would he say I wish my people knew? (26:56) Because obviously, his people are there on earth, he is up here in heaven. (27:02) His people are down here, but they do not know, remember the verse, but you do not perceive. (27:07) So he is up here in heaven, and he is saying I wish my people know. (27:11) But it is God's, it is the test, and it is God's wisdom, that Khomeini cannot come back (27:16) and tell us where he is now. (27:21) People cannot, once they cross that line, they cannot come back here and tell us. (27:26) But God is telling us. (27:28) And this man obviously went to heaven, and he is saying I wish my people knew that my (27:35) Lord has forgiven me, and made me honorable. (27:37) So is that in the old testament or the new testament? (27:40) This is the part of the first one.
