Revealed: The Aleefs of Absoluteness are 8 and 9, revealing the diff. of ONE.Revealed: The Allah letters are 17 and 18, revealing the diff. of ONE.Proof: Verse 2:256 Part: The Allah letters are 17 and the Aleefs are 8, revealing the name of the messenger, 178, Makbool. The messengers are sent by Allah and the devil wants the people to disbelieve in them, thus depriving them of the messages of Allah. This in turn will make them disbelieve in Allah.
Open passage -
in a cynical way through their patent topics and phrases typical of disbelieving websites. The email sent to me had topics and verses which are already printed on their website called, www.submission.org. through which they denounce any person claiming to be a messenger after Rashad. Instead of denouncing the devil, as per verse 2:256, they blaspheme the Absolute Allah by denouncing His messengers, whom He has called His “honorable servants”.
Open passage -
These “so-called submitters” are highly arrogant and aggressive. I specially flew to Tucson a few years ago to meet their leader, Abdullah Arik, to talk to him about the message, but he did not make himself available to me. While they proclaim and preach the message of “Allah's greatest gift of freedom of speech” through verses 2:256 and 33:73; they themselves are full of hypocrisy by not even giving the person the chance to speak to them. If “freedom of speech” according to the verse is what they believe in, then…

You have seen and witnessed many times how a specific proof creates numbers, which are then turned into a certain verse, which then reveals additional proofs and miracles from ALLAH, the Most Wise, just as you witnessed through verse 38:72 leading up to verse 2:256, and this verse created the number 165, which then became 2:165. All of this is beyond the scope, capability and control of human beings. Revelations of this nature prove beyond doubt that ALLAH is in control of everything in the Universe, including…

COMMENT: The verse is addressing the people who have not used their privilege of “freedom of choice” yet. It addresses the disbelievers who do not know the right way from the wrong way, and are being informed through the Quran. The believers are not allowed to coerce or force others into believing in God. This is an individual and independent decision that everyone has to make, and decide if they want to denounce the devil and then seek refuge in God and believe in Him. This is why the Aleefs and Allah letters…

Disease and Afflictions
The mere fact that satan was kicked out of and evicted from Heaven, thus losing the privilege of being in touch with the High Society, God and His angels make him even more jealous, venomous, and vengeful. How can satan be faithful to the humans or show them anything good in such a situation, especially when satan cannot return back to Heaven? God has called him His enemy and also his followers. This is why The Most Gracious has said that He is the Lord of the righteous and of the believers only. (those who believe…Read passage
