of the
Authorized
English translation of the Quran by
Dr.
Rashad Khalifa
End of the
World
God is the Knower of the future;
He does not permit anyone to
unveil such knowledge.
Only through the messengers that
He chooses does He reveal future and past events.
[
72:27
]
Among the duties charged to me as
God's Messenger of the
Covenant is unveiling the end of the world (Page 415). We learn from
18:7-8 and
69:13-15
that this world will come to an end. A new earth and new heavens will replace the present heavens and earth
(14:48).
Signs of the Approaching End of
the World
The Quran provides many signs, and states that the means for unveiling the end of the world have been given
(47:18). The
signs given in the Quran include:
1. The
splitting of the moon: This already happened in June 1969
when we landed on the moon and brought back moon rocks. People on earth can go now to many museums, colleges and observatories to look at pieces of the moon.
2. Discovering the Quran's 19-based
mathematical code (74:30-37):
Fulfilled in 1969-1974.
3. The
creature
(27:82): "Made
from the earth, it alerts the people that they have been oblivious to their Creator." The Creature, made from the earth, did appear and was instrumental in unveiling the Quran's numerical code, and proclaiming that the world has neglected God's message; the creature is the computer. Note that the digits that make up 27:82
add up to 19.
4. Appearance of God's Messenger of the
Covenant
(3:81):
As detailed in Appendix 2, a consolidating messenger, prophesied in the Quran, comes after all the prophets have delivered the scriptures, to purify and unify. This prophecy was fulfilled in Ramadan 1408.
5. The
Smoke
(44:10): occurs
after God's Messenger of the Covenant has delivered the unified message and proclaimed Islam (Submission) as the only religion acceptable by God.
6. Gog
and Magog: they re-appear, in accordance with God's plan, in the year 1700 AH (2271 AD). Gog and Magog are mentioned in
18:94 and
21:96. If you count the verses from
18:94 to the
end of Sura 18, you find them 17. If you count the verses from
21:96 to the
end of Sura
21, you find them also 17. This is the Quran's sign that Gog and Magog will re-appear in 1700 AH.
It Will Not Remain
Hidden
[20:15]

Verse 15 of Sura
20 informs us that the end of the world will be revealed by God before the end of the world, and
Sura 15 , Verse
87, gives the time for that event:
| "We have given you the seven pairs,
and the great Quran." [
15:87
] |
The seven pairs are the 14 Quranic Initials. The total gematrical value
of these profound pillars of the Quran's miracle pinpoints the year of the
end of the world. It is noteworthy that Verse 85 of
Sura 15 states:
| "The end of the world will surely
come to pass." [15:85] |
The next verse,
15:86, tells
us that God is the Creator of this world, and, of course, He knows when it will end. The following verse,
15:87, tells
us when the world will end. As shown in Table 1, the gematrical values of
"The Seven Pairs" of Quranic Initials total 1709 (see also Table 1
of Appendix 1). According to
15:87, the world
will survive for 1709 lunar years from the time this prophecy is stated in
the Quran. This means that the world will end in the year 1710 AH. This number is
a multiple of 19; 1710 = 19x90.

1709 |
The unveiling of this information took place in the year 1400 AH, 309 years before the prophesied end of the world (1709-1400=309). The
number 309 is a Quranic number
(18:25), and
is connected with the end of the world
(18:21).
The peculiar way of writing 309 in
18:25, "Three hundred years, increased by nine,"indicates that the 309
are lunar years. The difference between 300 solar years and 300 lunar
years is 9 years. The year of this discovery, 1400 AH, coincided with
1980 AD, and 1980 plus 300 solar years is 2280, also a multiple of
19, 19x120. Thus the world ends in 1710 AH, 19x90, which coincides
with 2280 AD, 19x120. For the disbelievers who do not accept these
powerful Quranic proofs, the end of the world will come suddenly
(6:31,
44,
47;
7:95,
187;
12:107;
21:40,
22:55;
26:202;
29:53;
39:55;
43:66; and
47:18).
While Hadith is forbidden as a source of religious teachings
(Appendix 19), it
can be a useful source of history. We can derive a lot of information about
historical events and local customs and traditions during the early centuries
of Islam. The books of Hadith indicate that the Quranic Initials were
believed to determine the life span of the Muslim Ummah.The classic exegesis
by Al-Baydaawy cites the following historical event as a possible
explanation of the Quranic Initials. The same event is detailed in
Al-Suyooty's ITQAAN, First Printing, 1318 AH, Vol 2, Page 10:
The Jews of Medina went to the Prophet and said, "Your Quran
is initialed with A.L.M., and these Initials determine the life
span of your religion. Since `A' is 1, `L' is 30, and `M' is 40,
this means that your religion will survive only 71 years."
Muhammad said, "We also have A.L.M.S." They said, "The `A' is 1, the `L'
is 30, the `M' is 40, and the `S' is 90. This adds up to 161. Do
you have anything else?" The Prophet said, "Yes, A.L.M.R." They
said,
"This is longer and heavier; the `A' is 1, `L' is 30, `M' is
40,
and `R' is 200, making the total 271." They finally gave
up,
saying, "We do not know how many of these Initials he was
given!"
[Al-Suyuty's Famous Reference ITQAAN] |
Although this narration is well known, many scholars have been reluctant
to accept the unmistakable connection between the Quranic initials and the
end of the world. They could not bring themselves to deal with
this subject for the simple reason that the calculation makes the end of
the world, and judgment, a reality.

Editor's Note
#1:
Another piece of observation here is connected with the wording of the word
"creature" (Dabah in Arabic) within 27:82 in comparison with other verses
in the Quran.
We notice that all the other verses that connect the two words "creature"
and "earth" always speaks of "creature in the earth" , for example:
"There is not a creature IN the earth whose
provision is not guaranteed by God."
11:6
Scientifically speaking, we all live in the earth and not on the earth. That
is because we live inside the earth's atmosphere, which is part of the earth.
However, when we look at 27:82 we find the wording is deliberately changed
to:
"A creature
FROM the
earth" which denotes that this creature is made
of earthly material.
As it happened, the computer was the tool to be used in counting all the
thousands of figures and multiples of the miracle in the Quran.
Let us look at 27:82 one more time but this time reverse the figures of the
verse and the Sura. The 27 becomes 72, and the 82 becomes 28. Verse 72:28
includes the words:
"He (GOD) has counted the
NUMBERS of
all things"
Editor's Note
#2:
Another indication given in the Quran as a code for unveiling the end of
the world is derived from the following verse:
"He (Jesus) is to serve as a marker for knowing
the end of the world so that you can no longer harbour any doubt about it"
43:61
The birth of Jesus set as a marker for the end of the world
1- We know that between the birth of
Jesus and the birth of Muhammad there is 570 years. 570 = 19 x 30
The numbers 19 and 30 are very significant within the miracle of the Quran.
We know that the code of the Quran 19 is mentioned in verse 30 (Sura 74).
2- This number of years between the birth
of Jesus and the birth of Muhammad, which is 570, confirms the calculations
of the end of the world.
The world will end in the year 2280 A.D. , which corresponds to the year
1710 A.H. Both 2280 and 1710 ( which are multiples of 19 ) are also
multiples of 570
2280 = 570 x 4
1710 = 570 x 3
3- The number of years between the birth
of Jesus and Muhammad (570) is the same as the number of years between the
end of the world in Solar calendar (2280) which is connected to the birth
of Jesus, and the end of the world in Islamic Lunar calendar (1710) which
is connected to the hijra (immigration to Medina) of Muhammad (and
not his birth).
birth of Jesus (0) - Birth of Muhammed (570) = 570 years
End of world A.D (2280) - end of world A.H. (1710) = 570 years

IT WILL NOT REMAIN HIDDEN (20:15)
Sura 20 Verse 15 informs us that the end of the world will be revealed by
God before the end of the world:
"The Hour (End of the World) is surely coming, I will keep it almost hidden.
For each soul must be paid for its works." 20:15
Verse 87 in Sura 15, gives the time for that event:
"We have given you the seven pairs and the Great Quran" 15:87
The seven pairs are the 14 Quranic initials. The total gematrical value of
these profound pillars of the Quranic's miracle (1709) pinpoints the year
of the end of the world.
The gematrical value of all the 14 sets (seven pairs) of initials of the
suras of the Quran is 1709. This number corresponds to 1709 years after the
revelation of the Quran and to the end of the world.
20:15, where God informs us that the end of the world will not remain hidden,
has a very important number. Of all the 6346 verses in the Quran God chose
verse 20:15 to give us this information. The number 2015 is a composite number
. The index of the composite number 2015 is 1709.
As you can see the year of the end of the world is pointed to in 20:15 indirectly
from the moment the Quran was revealed. It is very interesting to note that
Dr. Khalifa, did not know about this relationship of 20:15 and 1709 when
he wrote his translation of the Quran and pointed to the end of the world
in appendix 25 his translation.
And some people wonder what does AUTHORIZED translation mean. That is what
it means. This is an authorization just like his explanation of the splitting
of the moon in 54:1 before he ever know that the moon split officially in
NASA's records at the minute 54:1 of the day it split.
