Open Letter To Disbelievers:
Are You Missing the Boat?
I can show you 1000 irrefutable proofs
that I am Gods Messenger of the Covenant (3:81).
Can you show me one, just one, proof that I am not?
Do you know why you do not believe the Quran?
The Quran tells us exactly why you do not believe.
Let me cite the Quranic prophecy in 3:81 according to the famous trans-lation of Pickthall, not my translation:
| When Allah made (His) covenant with the Prophets, (He said): Behold that which I have given you of the Scrip-ture and knowledge. And afterward there will come unto you a messenger, confirming that which ye possess. Ye shall believe in him and ye shall help him. He said: Do ye agree, and will ye take up My burden (which I lay upon you) in this (matter)? They answered: We agree. He said: Then bear witness. I will be a witness with you. |
The Quran is "Clear, without any ambiguity" (18:1, 39:28), and this verse informs us that after all the prophets have come to this world and have delivered all the scriptures, a con-solidating messenger will come to unify and purify the scriptures.
Who is this Messenger?
For this computer age, the name of Gods Messenger of the Covenant is mathematically coded into the Quran. I can show you 1000 physical, verifi-able, and utterly irrefutable proofs that I, Rashad Khalifa, am Gods mes-senger who is prophesied in 3:81.
The Most Important Event
Now that the truth has been proven to you on the pages of this Bulletin, do you have enough strength to overcome your ego?
| Lo, l am sending my Mes-senger of the Covenant to prepare the way before
Me
. But who will endure the day of his coming? And who can stand when
he appears? For he is like the refiners fire, or like the fullers
soap. [Book of Malachi 3:1-3] |
Do you know why you continue to defy Gods truth? The Quran tells us exactly why you do not believe. You worship some other god besides God. Thats the reason. Verse 25:43 informs us of people whose god is their ego. Accordingly, if you:
[1] see the clear Quranic truth,
[2] supported by overwhelming proofs,
[3] your mullas and shaikhs cannot come up with a single argument against
this truth, and
[4] you still refuse to accept Gods truth, then face it - you have
another god besides Allah.
This is confirmed by the verses im-mediately after 3:81, where Gods messenger is prophesied; they em-phasize that anyone who fails to ac-cept this Quranic truth is dismissed from the religion of Islam. Please read 3:81-91 very carefully; these verses are, as always, very clear & may save you.
How to Distinguish The Messengers
Gods true messengers (1) have solid proof from God that they are His messengers, (2) advocate worship-ing God ALONE, & upholding the word of God ALONE, and (3) never ask for a wage.
Satan has flooded the world with false messengers. his aim is to drown the truth in an ocean of falsehood, to divert the people from Gods messenger and thus prevent them from being saved. However, God has given us the mind and the absolute freedom to choose His kingdom or Satans.
If anyone claims to be Gods messenger, and fails to meet the criteria listed above, he is a false messenger.
Additionally, Gods messenger is supported by Gods invisible soldiers, Gods treasury, and Gods guidance for His sincere believers. See 15:95-97.
Letters of Support from All Over the World
From Australia:
Dear Brother Rashad:
You have my full support no matter what you do. I acknowledge that you are a messenger of Allah and thank Allah for providing you to perpetuate, rectify and present the message to a new world and generations.
From Manila:
Dear Bro. Rashad, The Messenger of Allah:
Since the day Ive learned and ac-cepted your messengership, my ways in life have changed. Ive devoted part of my time to praying, searching for the truth, Quranic reading, and purification of my belief. I am now able to face the daily life with peace, smile, and high hopes in the promised victory from Allah (S.W.T.)
Praise be to Allah (S.W.T.) and thanks be to Him for being very lucky to have known you in this world.
From Singapore:
Br Rashad Khalifa:
0 you messenger, do not be saddened by those who hasten to disbelieve, among those who said, "We believe," with their mouths, while their hearts disbelieved. [from Quran, 5:41]
From Florida:
Thank you very much for giving me so much of your time these last few weeks, and for the Quran and the other literature youve sent. I feel like my spirit has begun to soar at warp speed. ...you introduced me to the possibility of following God alone, without also bowing to the "scholars" and Hadith, and I felt an excitement, a quickening. Then, after much sup-plication and reading Quran, I began to pray to God alone, without as-sociating His prophet Mohammed with Him in the prayer. I gradually felt as though the ground fell out from under me, while I secured an even stronger hold with God.
...Please forgive me for considering whether you could allow yourself to be placed in an exalted position, dear brother. LA ILAHA ILLA ALLAH. You have never pointed me in any direction but Allah, using the Quran as our criterion.
From Turkey:
Dear Brother Rashad:
Before receiving your message I was trying to devote the religion to God alone. And now, with the same goal, and with the condition that the Quran shall be the judge, I accept your mes-sengership. I dont know English, but the information that I received until now has convinced my mind and my heart.
When someone comes to me and claims that he is Gods messenger, with warnings and a message from God, I cannot dismiss his claim and ignore him without listening to him and thinking about his claims in light of the Quran.
Praise be to God. He is the Greatest. He is fully aware of the in-nermost thoughts, and He never for-sakes the sincere believers.
From Chicago.
Dear Rashad: Messenger of Almighty God.
I can almost sense Gods work, through you, beginning to overwhelm the minds. Like a snowball rolling down a great hill, becoming so large and gathering so much momentum that no opposition, IN SHAA ALLAH, will dare stand in the way.
May God continue to inspire you. Greetings to all the believers at Mas-jid Tucson.
This is only a small sample. Praise and glory be to God.
What did the disbelievers say?
Despite my challenge to them in the February issue of M.P to "Give Me One - just one - Good Reason," the disbelievers cannot come up with one - just one - reason as to why I could not possibly be Gods messenger!!!
Where are the "Muslim" scholars? Why do they not supply their followers with one - just one - reason in support of their stand? Their conspicuous silence is a great proof. The Quranic fact is: the truth must win, in accord-ance with Gods law (17:81, 21:18).
Gods Messenger of the Covenant: Why?
The Quran, Gods Final Testament, consolidates the messages delivered by all of Gods prophets into one global message. This is the main mission of Gods Messenger of the Covenant.
Henceforth, there is only one religion that is approved by God - the religion whereby we submit totally to God and devote our worship absolutely to Him alone. Submission to God has been the only religion since the time of Adam - the followers of Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon, Jesus, and Muhammad, are called "Muslims" in the Quran. Submission in Arabic is "Islam". Thus Islam is not a name; it is a description of ones act of submitting to God. A Muslim is anyone who submits to God, be they Jews, Christians, Muslims, Hindus or Buddhists. Anyone who submits to God and worships Him alone is a Muslim. One can be a Muslim Jew, a Muslim Christian, a Muslim Hindu, or a Muslim Muslim (2:62, 5:69) Anyone of these Muslims will have no objection to anything in the Quran. If any of them finds anything in the Quran objectionable, he or she is not a Muslim, a submitter to God.
| Islam is the only religion approved by God. [3:19] |
Anyone who accepts other than Islam as a religion, it will not be accepted
|
All religions - Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism - have been cor-rupted through idolization of their prophets and saints.
Judaism
Judging from the writings of a famous Rabbi, Harold Kushner, many of todays Jews do not believe in the Hereafter, an essential requirement for salvation (2:62, 5:69), and do not believe in Gods omnipotence. Failing to recognize Gods qualities is not knowing God. See Kushners book WHEN BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE, Avon Books, 1981.
Christianity
If Jesus came back to this world, the Christians would crucify him. Out-standing Christian scholars have now recognized that todays Christianity has nothing to do with Jesus religion (see THE MYTH OF GOD INCAR-NATE, The Westminster Press, Philadelphia, 1977). The original Christian doctrine was mortally cor-rupted during the Nicene Conferences (325 AD).
Islam
If Muhammad came back to this world, the Muslims would stone him to death. For todays Islam has noth-ing to do with the religion preached by Abraham and Muhammad. Todays Islam is an anti-Quran Satanic cult.
Everything todays Muslims do is wrong - the Shahaadah, the Azan, the ablution, the contact prayers (Salat), the obligatory charity (Zakat), the fasting of Ramadan, and Hajj.
All Muslims, under the various sec-tarian names, claim to believe and uphold the Quran. Using the Quran as a criterion, we find that all the prac-tices listed, among many other details, are severely corrupted into idol-wor-ship.
A Shocking Example
Verse 19 in the sura entitled "Muhammad" (47:19) proclaims the Shahaadah. This verse is a confirma-tion of the powerful verse on the First Pillar of Islam, Shaadah, as stated in 3:18. Verse 47:19 states:
You shall know that "There is no other god besides God" (LAA ELAHA ELLAA ALLAH). So what did the Muslims do? They turned around and placed another god be-sides God. Shown below is the shocking logo of an Islamic journal THE REVIEW OF RELIGIONS (The London Mosque, 16 Gressenhall Rd, London 5W18 SQL). Flagrantly abus-ing the Quran, this journal placed Muhammads name next to Gods name in 47:19!! Such is todays Islam.
Elite of the Elite (56:10)
A Most Fortunate Generation
We grew up in the midst of corrupted Islam. We inherited from our ancestors tons upon tons of satanic teachings. Then God bestowed His grace upon us and saved us from a horrible fate - eternal Hell. How fortunate can one get?
Our confession of faith, Shahaadah, was a declaration of Shirk (idolatry), and a defiant rebellion against the Quran. For the Quran dic-tates a Shahaadah that is devoted to God ALONE (3:18 & 47:19), while todays Shahaadah of the "Muslims" dictates Muhammads name side by side with Gods name. The Quranic criterion in 39:45 - "When God alone is mentioned the hearts of those who do not believe in the Hereafter shrink with aversion, but when others are mentioned with Him, they become satisfied" - exposes todays "Muslims" as disbelievers at heart. If you ask them to utter the Quranically dictated Shahaadah (3:18 & 47:19), they simply cannot do it. Try it with them; they can never utter the correct Shahaadah; they are forbidden by God.
Our daily contact prayers (Salat) were corrupted into a practice in idol-worship. Although God commands us to keep the daily contact prayers (Salat) absolutely devoted to Him ALONE (20:14 & 72:18), we were taught to mention Muhammad and his family, and Abraham and his family in every Salat.
Our obligatory charity (Zakat) was corrupted into uselessness and injus-tice. While the Quran orders us to give the Zakat "on the day of harvest," i.e., the day we receive income, we were giving Zakat only once a year, and then to the wrong recipients.
Our fasting & Hajj were corrupted.
Thank God
God saved us with His message of purification and consolidation (3:81). He has shown us the right way, and has saved us by His grace from eternal Hell. He has purified the Quran for us, and has given us the most powerful miracle, and strengthened His purify-ing information with the most over-whelming physical evidence. He cleansed our minds of all doubt, and has guided us to worship Him ALONE. How fortunate can one be?
If we were born just a few years earlier, or lived in the wrong location, we would have continued in our old idolatrous ways, and would have in-curred the due misery here and in the Hereafter, now and forever.
Can we ever thank God enough? How fortunate can one be?
Thank You God.
