JESUS IN ISLAM

JESUS IN ISLAM

In our quest for truth, we have seen that our intellects demand a more consistent and
unified approach to the ‘word of God’. If the sources that we have cannot be relied upon
then we must search out different sources of information that we can rely upon because of
its consistency. Any source claiming to be the ‘word of God’ by definition must be the most
consistent and reliable source known to man. Let us now examine the Messenger and
Prophet known in Islam as al-Maseeh ‘Isa ibn Maryam. We have already included the verse
from the Qur’an which described the meeting between Mary and the Angel. Before we
continue, let us briefly establish the Qur’an as an authority for us to refer to. The Qur’an is
without question the most unique and authentic book known to man. It is still in existence
in written and recited form the same way it was during the time of the Prophet. It was
memorized by the companions and the Prophet himself (Peace be upon him). Do we have
any reports of the disciples of Jesus in the Bible memorizing and cross-checking Matthew,
Mark, Luke, and John? Of course not. These books were written well after the events
depicted in them. None of these gospels or Paul’s writings ever got Jesus’ seal of approval.
What about the Qur’an. It is recorded in history that the Prophet (p.b.u.h.) and his
companions meticulously preserved the Qur’an. It was recited in its entirety every
Ramadhan. Today, there are millions of Muslims who have memorized the Qur’an and over
a billion Muslims recite great portions of it everyday. There are no ‘revised versions’ or
‘American Versions’. It is preserved in the language of its revelation, Arabic. Today, Muslims
can recite from the Qur’an and be confident that they are reciting the very words that the
Prophet (p.b.u.h.) recited in his Quraishi Arabic dialect. How many Christians have even
seen Aramaic (the language of Jesus) not to mention repeated his very words as he said
them? None. Christians can’t even decide which English bibles are correct so how can they
even fathom reading the very Aramaic that Jesus spoke. Needless to say this aspiration is
mute because we know that even the gospels were first written in Greek, a language far from
16
Jesus’ tongue. It is a language that was born from a culture of paganism and multiple deities.
The language of the Hebrews of Jesus’ time was rooted in their faith in monotheism. Just as
the Arabic language today, because of the total comprehensiveness of Islam, is rooted in
Tawheed (Oneness of God). Time and space do not permit us to delve into the incredible
nature of the Qur’an and how it confidently explains historical events, scientific facts
unknown during the time of its revelation, and its unique eloquence so my suggestion is for
the reader to investigate the Qur’an further.
Jesus was simply sent to confirm the message of those Prophets who came before him.
He called the people to the pure worship of God, alone, without any associates or rivals.
And He (Allah) will teach him ['Isa (Jesus)] the Book and Al-Hikmah (i.e. the
Sunnah, the faultless speech of the Prophets, wisdom, etc.), (and) the Tauraat
(Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel). (Noble Qur’an 3:48)
Jesus proclaims the worship of the One God…
Truly! Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him (Alone). This is the
Straight Path. (Noble Qur’an 3:51)
Allah describes the likeness of Jesus…
Verily, the likeness of 'Isa (Jesus) before Allah is the likeness of Adam. He created
him from dust, then (He) said to him: "Be!" - and he was. (Noble Qur’an 3:59)
Allah establishes the authority of the Qur’an concerning Jesus…
17
Verily! This is the true narrative [about the story of 'Isa (Jesus)], and, Laa ilaaha ill-
Allah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allah, the One and the Only True
God, Who has neither a wife nor a son). And indeed, Allah is the All-Mighty, the
All-Wise. (3:62)
The Qur’an in regards to the concept of Trinity…
O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)! Do not exceed the limits in your
religion, nor say of Allah aught but the truth. The Messiah 'Isa (Jesus), son of
Maryam (Mary), was (no more than) a Messenger of Allah and His Word, ("Be!" -
and he was) which He bestowed on Maryam (Mary) and a spirit (Rooh) created by
Him; so believe in Allah and His Messengers. Say not: "Three (trinity)!" Cease! (it
is) better for you. For Allah is (the only) One Ilaah (God), Glory be to Him (Far
Exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all
that is in the earth. And Allah is All-Sufficient as a Disposer of affairs (4:171)
Allah’s statement concerning the crucifixion…
18
And because of their saying (in boast), "We killed Messiah 'Isa (Jesus), son of
Maryam (Mary), the Messenger of Allah," - but they killed him not, nor crucified
him, but the resemblance of 'Isa (Jesus) was put over another man (and they killed
that man), and those who differ therein are full of doubts. They have no (certain)
knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely; they killed him not
[i.e. 'Isa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary) (4:157)
This is the Jesus of Islam. This is the attribute of Prophethood that goes back through all
of the prophets in that they were strengthened by God and were sent to the people to warn
and to give glad tidings. They were all given the message of monotheism (worshipping
God alone) from the beginning and never did any of the Prophets encourage the people to
set them (the Prophets) up as rivals or equals with their Creator. All of the basic beliefs of
Christianity as formulated in the 4th and 5th century after Jesus are absolutely
incompatible with Islam because as we have shown, the Qur’an debunks the notion of the
divinity of Jesus, the trinity, even the crucifixion. Without these core beliefs, Christianity
as we know it is empty. So we must ask ourselves, which presentation of Jesus’ message
is more consistent with what we know of all of the other Prophets’ and the words
attributed to Jesus in the gospels themselves? Is it the one presented by Paul or the one
presented in the Qur’an?

DID JESUS BRING A NEW LAW?

DID JESUS BRING A NEW LAW?

Many Christians faithfully believe that Jesus (upon him be peace) came and brought with
him a different law than what the prophets of old had taught. They faithfully believe that
God changed the rules in the middle of the game and even forced everyone to adjust their
way of how they perceived him. The concept of God in the Old Testament is fairly
straightforward and simple. There is One God. Nothing else should be worshipped.
Christians believe that this teaching was outdated and God ordered this new, very confusing
concept of Himself. God was now a mystery that could not be explained. God was one…
but he was also three. He was God… but Jesus was also God. Then something called the
Holy Spirit was thrown in …and IT was God! The very foundation of this doctrine is
illogical and does not stand up to reason. In simple mathematics three does not equal one no
matter how many times you try to reconcile it. What if for every one dollar I had, the bank
would consider it as three. What if the banks counted one dollar for every three dollars you had.
Those same logic bending, mathematically challenged Christians would become math
whizzes overnight explaining to the banks that one=one and three=three! God creates this
world based in logic for our own well being. Then, according to the Christians, he forces us
to worship him in a way that our minds cannot even get around? According to this teaching,
we are to navigate through life with a sound sense of logic and reason in the real world. But
on Sun-day we step into this illogical place where three is one. ‘God can do anything’, is what
may be said. Let us examine that statement. Don’t stop reading this! Let me finish. God does
not do what is inconsistent with being God. In other words, God is perfect and does not do
that which diminishes His perfection. For example, can God manifest himself in the form of
a gnat? You may say, ‘Sure’. OK, that gnat is then flying around some man’s dinner plate and
is swatted and killed. Is this in the nature of God? He does not do things that are
inconsistent with being the Creator, most High. Apply the same logic to God manifesting
himself as a man. A man who hurts, cries, prays and in fact, can be killed.
According to Matthew, chapter 5, verses 17, 18, 19 Jesus explicitly states,”
11
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy but to fulfill.
For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the
law, till all be fulfilled.
Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be
called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called
great in the kingdom of heaven.
In Matt 19:16, 17 it says,
And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have
eternal life?
And He said unto him, Why callest thou me good? There is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou
wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
And in Mark 10:19,
Thou knowest the comma ndments. Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false
witness, Defraud not. Honor thy Father and Mother.
Not only do these verses state explicitly that Jesus came as a continuation of the law of
Moses but in the latter verse Jesus plainly differentiates between himself and God when
someone called him ‘good’.
In Mark 12:29 Jesus says,”…The first of all commandments is , Hear, O Israel, The Lord our God
is one Lord…”
The emphasis here is on having no other deity except the One God. Is this the focus of
present day Christianity? Why is the word ‘our’ used? If Jesus is God or 1/3 God, why would
he say ‘the Lord our God is One Lord’? Is he his own God? We are searching for truth dear
reader and we must acknowledge this major inconsistency concerning the words attributed
to Jesus and the teachings of Christianity if we are to be honest in our quest.
Concerning other aspects of the law of Moses, it states in Luke 2:21, 22,
And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called Jesus,
which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him
to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord;
If we honestly read the gospels, can we come to the conclusion that Jesus came to
abolish the understanding of the One God as taught by Noah, Abraham, and Moses and
replace this with a ‘new’ religion of three gods in one, god-incarnate in man, ritual blood
sacrifice, and vicarious atonement? Where did Jesus speak about any of these things? These
12
ideologies could not have been further from the simple message of Jesus which was to
sincerely adhere to the law of God in submission.

TRINITY IN THE BIBLE

TRINITY IN THE BIBLE

There is a quick and easy way to explain the concept of Trinity in the Bible…It’s not in
there. Well, actually, it depends on which Bible you read. If you read the old King James
Version, you will of course read I John 5:7 where it says, “ For there are three that bear record in
heaven, the Father, the Word, and The Holy Ghost: And these three are one.” I would like to point out
that virtually all Biblical scholars and historians have unanimously concluded that this verse
is an insertion! If you think that this statement that I have just put forth is biased then I
suggest you pick up any recent publication of the Bible such as the Revised Standard
Version, New Revised Standard Version, The New International Version, the New
American Standard Bible, The New English Bible, etc, etc. All of these versions have
completely excluded the verse. Benjamin Wilson says in his Emphatic Diaglott,
“his text concerning the heavenly witness is not contained in any Greek manuscript which was
written earlier than the fifteenth century. It is not cited by any of the ecclesiastical writers…”
Peake’s Commentary on the Bible notes;
“The Famous interpolation after ‘three witnesses’ is not printed even in RSV, and rightly. It cites the
heavenly testimony of the Father, the Logos, and the Holy Spirit, but is never used in the early Trinitarian
controversies. No respectable Greek MS contains it. Appearing first in a late 4th –cent. Latin text, it entered
the Vulgate and finally the NT of Erasmus.”
The same verse quoted above from the original KJV of the Bible, reads this way in the
NRSV.
“There are three that testify:”(I John 5:7)
9
That’s it! That’s all there is in I John chapter 5 verse 7 from the New Revised Standard
Version. It goes on in verse 8 to say, “…the Spirit and the water and the blood, and these three
agree.”
There is nothing about Father and Son. Even if some scholar were to interpret the spirit,
water, blood as analogous to the ‘Holy Trinity’, the difference between one text saying
“…and these three are one” and “…and these three agree” is too blatant a contradiction to ignore.
There is a difference between being in agreement and being ‘one’, unless the word ‘one’ is
being used figuratively to mean in agreement. If the message of Jesus is in alignment with
what God has ordered, then, in an allegorical sense, he is ‘one’ with God. So which Bible are
Christians meant to follow? Is one a ‘Holy Bible’ and the other a ‘Holier Bible’? If these texts
can be deleted and interpolated by men, how can this book be considered the “word of
God”? Are Christian Bible readers supposed to read their Bibles faithfully until another
revised addition is published then cast the old one aside like an out-dated software program?
What about the faithful who still have old KJV bibles who haven’t been notified that their
text has been upgraded and some verses have been left out because it has been determined
that the verses were in fact interpolations? What about the preachers who still teach from
Bibles that are out-dated and contain verses that have been identified as false according to
most Bible scholars?
The fact remains it is difficult to discuss the concept of Trinity and its Biblical
references because there aren’t any. The concept of Trinity was developed over the span of
three and a half centuries after the time of Jesus. In the New Catholic Encyclopedia, it says,
“…when one does speak of an unqualified Trinitarianism, one has moved from the period of Christian
origins to say, the last quadrant of the 4th century. It was only then that what might be called the definitive
Trinitarian dogma ‘One God in three persons’ became thoroughly assimilated into Christian life and
thought…it was a product of 3 centuries of doctrinal development”
Trinities were worshipped in several places during the time of Jesus as well as in
antiquity. The Egyptians worshipped trinities. So did the Babylonians and Zoroastrians.
Hindu worship revolves around a trinity. Many societies based their worship around the
concept of trinities. Once the ‘One God’ of Jesus was introduced to the pagan Romans and
others in the area in the form of a ‘trinity’ through Christianity, it became easy for the
heathen worshippers to move laterally to a form of worship that had the same elements but
with different names. This is the environment that Paul was immersed in. Paul was in fact
heavily influenced by Greco-Roman ideologies and philosophies of God incarnate in man,
religious blood sacrifice and resurrection and triune Platonic theories of the ‘first cause’, the
‘reason’ or ‘logos’, and the ‘spirit’ of the universe. Many of the man-deities were the rulers of
Greece, Rome, Egypt, etc. It is well known that the Ancient Egyptian Pharaohs were
worshipped as gods and in some of the ancient myths, the ‘man-god’ Pharaoh had to be
sacrificed for the greater good of the society. History records that Julius Caesar was deified
by the Romans and the Greeks with the approval of the senate and this was commemorated
with a temple and statue dedicated to his worship. Constantine was considered the human
manifestation of the Roman sun-god, Sol-invictus. Many compromises were made early on
in the church to accommodate these pagan beliefs. The Sabbath (in Arabic, sab’ah – seven)
was changed from the seventh day to Sun-day, the holy day for the Roman sun god and
10
Christmas was set to be celebrated on December 25th, which happened to be not only the
birthday of the Roman sun-god Sol-Invictus but also the very popular Persian Sun-god
Mithra. According to A.D. Ajijola in his book, The Hijacking of Christianity, the Persian
sun-deity Mithra was worshiped almost 600 yeas before it was introduced to Rome. Mithra
was supposedly born of a virgin on December 25th and died in service to humanity. He was
buried and he rose from the tomb to be heralded as a ‘savior’ for all humanity. He is
depicted in ancient drawings as a ‘lamb’. The concept of a ‘resurrected’ deity was also well
ingrained in the beliefs of the people of the Mediterranean Region. In his monumental work,
The Golden Bough, James George Frazer writes,
“ Under the names of Osiris, Tammuz, Adonis, and Attis, the peoples of Egypt and Western Asia
represented the yearly decay and revival of life, especially of vegetable life, which they personified as a god who
annually died and rose again from the dead.”

JESUS – SON OF WHOM?

JESUS – SON OF WHOM?

The first major hurdle we will address is the parentage or alleged parentage of Jesus. The
fundamental belief in present day Christianity is that Jesus is the literal begotten son of God
and is second in the Divine Trinity of God’s being. If this is somehow disturbed, then as this
is the foundation of the Christian belief, Christianity itself collapses. If the foundation is
solid and the ‘testimony’ is consistent, the Christian religion has in fact proven its case
beyond a reasonable doubt. Before I begin quoting from the Bible I would like to point out
that these verses from the Bible are written in English. The Gospels themselves were first
written down in Greek and not in Jesus’ tongue of Aramaic. This is generally known
amongst Bible scholars. There are no original Aramaic or Hebrew texts that exist to crossreference
the Greek and English translations with. As anyone who studies languages will tell
you, a language can either lose or gain many meanings in a translation. This is critical when it
comes to scripture. The word ‘son’ may have a totally different connotative meaning when
translated from Aramaic to Greek to English. It is quite difficult to convey the meanings of
Eastern languages to English without losing something or gaining something that is not
intended. The same goes for the word ‘lord’.
The verse most quoted amongst Christians to support the notion of Jesus being the
literal divine son of God is of course John 3:16 in which it is written…
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should
not perish, but have everlasting life.”(John 3:16) KJV.
6
Now this is a straight forward verse that is clear in its meaning and what in what it is
trying to convey. The first thing that should be noted, however, is that this verse is not
attributed to Jesus nor is it a quote from Jesus. This is a verse written by someone else. The
verse is attributed to a man named John. John was the last of the Gospels to be written and
no one is sure of exactly which John this is supposed to be. The Gospel of John was written
around 100 C.E. at Ephesus. That is approximately seventy years after the time of Jesus. As
Adolf Harnack points out in his book, What is Christianity?:
“the fourth Gospel does not emanate or profess to emanate from the apostle John, who cannot be taken as an
historical authority…the author of the fourth Gospel acted with sovereign freedom, trans-posed events and put
them in a strange light. “
The Gospel of John is considered to be the most beautifully written of the Gospels.
According to Acts 4:13, however, Peter and John were both ignorant and unlearned men.
The Gospel of John is written as a drama of sorts, unfolding layers of measured resolution
and emotion. Not something unlearned men are known to produce. ‘He was divinely
inspired by God…’ can be heard as an argument. ‘Look at your Qur’an and its masterly
prose. Muslims claim Muhammad was unlearned yet look at the Qur’an…’. The problem
with that argument is that Muhammad (p.b.u.h.) is a fully realized and documented historical
figure. History recognizes Muhammad (p.b.u.h.) as a man who definitely lived, taught, and
revolutionized his society. His sayings have been documented to the letter. The Qur’an was
memorized by not only by the Prophet himself but also by his followers. Even the most
secular historians must admit this. The personality and person of John, however, cannot be
substantiated with historical documented evidence. Bible historians debate over whether or
not John the Apostle was the same John who is credited with writing this Gospel. According
to Blacks Bible Dictionary, John was beheaded before 70 C.E., and a connection to the first
manuscript of ‘the Gospel of John’ at Ephesus around 100 C.E. would be difficult to
establish. So let us revisit the passage.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should
not perish, but have everlasting life.”(John 3:16) KJV.
The real test of the verse is in its consistency with the rest of the Bible whom the
Christians claim to accept as a whole. As you can see, it reads “…only begotten son…” but
when we look at Psalms 2:7 David says, “…the Lord said unto me, Thou art my son; this day have I
begotten thee.” This is a serious discrepancy for the sincere Bible reader. Who is telling the
truth, David or the mystery John? Can we rely on the Psalms for the truth or ‘The Gospel of
John’? Is the Gospel the literal and the Psalms the figurative or vice versa? Jesus is given
many ‘fathers’ in the N.T. The first line in the New Testament reads, “ The book of the
generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham (Matt. 1:1). Are we to accept the
literal meaning of this or the figurative? And if we are to assume that the verse only means
that he was a spiritual son of David, then why can’t we assume the same thing is meant when
Jesus refers to God the “Father”? For according to the N.T. statements attributed to Jesus
he says, “…Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect (Matt. 5:48). As
well as, “After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father…”(Matt 6:9). And to confirm the
spiritual connection of the righteous, “For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in
heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother (Matt 12:50). This verse uses the word ‘Father’
7
but Mark 3:35 reads, “ For whosoever does the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and
mother.” How many times in the N.T. is the word ‘Father’ used to describe God? If ‘Father’
has substituted the word ‘God’ in this verse, how many other verses have been tweaked?
That this is not a literal relationship is plain to see and comprehend. Another verse is
describing David as being Jesus’ father, “…And the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his
father David (Luke 1:32). Now if God was Jesus’ literal physical father, wouldn’t it have made
sense to distinguish the difference in this verse which presents Jesus along with David as his
father? Let’s assume that Jesus is understood to be God’s son in this verse and rewrite the
verse stating that idea. It would read, “…And his father, the Lord God shall give unto him the throne
of his father David…”. This makes absolutely no sense at all and the authors knew this. The
author of this verse knew that in order for it to make any sense, only one could be
connected to Jesus as a ‘Father’. And since the legitimacy of Jesus’ mission must come
through David, according to the Bible, it was more prudent to connect Jesus as an heir to
David than to infuse the verse with ‘son of God’ dogma. The curious thing is that in
Matthew and Luke, the genealogy of Jesus is traced through Joseph as if Joseph had some
blood relation to Jesus. Jesus is supposed to have been divinely conceived within Mary
without the husbandly help of Joseph. How then can Jesus’ genealogy be logically traced
back to David through Joseph? In Luke 2:41 it reads, “Now his parents went to Jerusalem every
year at the feast of the Passover.” His parents being Mary and Joseph? The only person that
anyone can be sure of about Jesus’ parentage is Mary yet no where is Jesus explicitly called
son of Mary in the Bible. The Qur’an is consistent and clear on this matter. Jesus is referred
to as Al-Maseeh ‘Isa ibn Maryam or The Messiah (Christ) Jesus, son of Mary.
(Remember) when the angels said: "O Maryam (Mary)! Verily, Allah gives you
the glad tidings of a Wo rd ["Be!" - and he was! i.e. 'Isa (Jesus) the son of Maryam
(Mary)] from Him, his name will be the Messiah 'Isa (Jesus), the son of Maryam
(Mary), held in honor in this world and in the Hereafter, and will be one of those
who are near to Allah." (3:45)
According to the Bible God had even more sons. The Book of Job 2:1 reads, “Again there
was a day when sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord…”. This is yet another
contradiction of the “…only begotten son…” notion of John 3:16. But wait, there is more. In
Luke, after tracing the so-called genealogy of Jesus all the way back to Adam it reads,
“…Which was the son of Enos, Which was the son of Seth, Which was the son of Adam, Which was the
son of God”(Luke 3:38).
8
So will real the real father of Jesus and the real sons of God please stand up! This is
confusing as well it should be for the average Bible reader. The problem lies in the
interpretation of lost manuscripts that have been roughly translated or mistranslated through
the ages. There is an allegorical message in these books that has been interpreted and taught
as literal. There have also been concessions made by the Early Pauline Church to make the
simple teachings of Jesus palatable to the pagans of Europe and western Asia. Throughout
ancient forms of worship there have been religions of divine offspring of a great god. These
areas of Syria, Greece, and Rome were practicing pagans who worshipped human beings
whom they thought were god incarnates. The ancient rites of Mithraism, Attis, Adonis,
Diana, Dionysus and many more all were practiced in the so called gentile lands that the
Pauline church longed to bring into their fold. These pagan religions all contained elements
of what now compose Christianity. That, however, is another topic.

Jesus and the bible

INTRODUCTION
The task of writing about Jesus and the Bible from a logical perspective is, as I have
come to find out, an incredible undertaking. There is so much information that has to be
processed that it seems impossible to include every piece of historical and scriptural
information in the study. Therefore, I will narrow down the scope of this endeavor by
simply focusing on a few key issues using the Bible as my main source of reference. This will
consist of the four canonical Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) with a few crossreferences
to select verses in the Old Testament. The only other major source of
information concerning the person and message of Jesus Christ is The Qur’an. There are
those who would say that only a Muslim would use the Qur’an as a source of information
about Jesus. The same argument however, can be used concerning Christians and the Bible.
Indeed, this is the reason such a study should be done. For it is the inconsistency of
The Bible itself that renders its information suspect and therefore it is a poor source of
reference to use against the Muslim and The Qur’an. The Qur’an, the book of Islam,
describes in a much more consistent manner the life and message of Jesus. One element that
adds to the consistency of the information about Jesus in The Qur’an is that it is told in one
voice. That is to say, there are no ‘alternative perspectives’ included in the Qur’an. The New
Testament contains the four canonical Gospels, which all supposedly tell much of the same
story. When we read the Gospels however, we find that not only do these four different
versions come to us from different sources, but they stand in complete contradiction to one
another in some key areas. In addition to this, there are even contradictions within the
individual Gospels themselves. The Qur’an is free of those elements. Hence, we must
include The Qur’an as reference if we are to remain logical in our approach. The key is logic.
In an American court of law, evidence is presented to make a case. Witnesses are called to
corroborate the evidence. However, if the witness’ testimony is proven inconsistent under
cross-examination, the case has been severely weakened. If the foundation of the ‘case’ of
present day Christianity is the Bible and the Bible is shown to be inconsistent in it’s
‘testimony’ , then those who preach the Bible and read the Bible must seriously reconsider
their source of information concerning their faith. This is not an attack on Christianity or
those who call themselves Christians. Nor is it an attack on scripture from God. It is a study
of logic and reason concerning Jesus and his mission. Many of the sayings we find in the
Bible attributed to Jesus are consistent with that found in The Qur’an. In fact, it is the
sayings and sermons attributed to Jesus in the Bible that form the biggest argument against
the way Christianity is practiced today. We intend to examine those briefly, God willing. The
reason it is necessary to point out some inconsistencies in the Bible itself is to prove that; 1.)
The present day versions of the Bible are flawed and do not warrant the notion of
infallibility; 2.) It becomes necessary to look for other sources of information and be open to
them; 3.) Prove that if man can add and delete or revise divine scripture, it will naturally lose
some of its authenticity.
5
There are actually some other sources of information concerning Jesus that are probably
unknown to the average Bible reader such as the Dead Sea Scrolls and the large amount of
collected and authenticated Hadeeth (sayings of the Prophet Muhammad P.B.U.H) available
for anyone to read. For the purpose of this study, we will mostly deal with the Bible and
Qur’an. Lastly, the entire objective is to properly understand and appreciate Jesus in the
manner which is most appropriate. We want to use the Bible to prove that Jesus is not and
did not claim to be Divine. Nor did Jesus claim to be the literal son of God. Jesus never
spoke of the Trinity. We intend to use the Bible to prove this. The book of Christianity will
prove this. The problem lies with the fact that most Christians follow those that came after
Jesus and in the name of Jesus rather than actually following the teaching and guidance of
Jesus. The self-appointed Apostle Paul has influenced the teachings of Christianity more
than Jesus himself. There are more books in the entire Bible written by Paul than anyone
else. This includes Moses, David, Solomon, Isaiah, AND Jesus. All of these were messengers
from God, yet Paul has more writings in the Bible than the Prophets! Paul was neither a
prophet nor a messenger from God. All the prophets brought essentially the same message.
Paul’s writings were radically different from the messages the Prophets brought. This,
however, is a different study unto itself. It is quite peculiar that Jesus is the only major figure
in the Bible who does not have one book attributed to him. There is no ‘Gospel of Jesus’ or
‘Book of Jesus’. There are only books written by someone other than Jesus attempting to
convey something of what Jesus spoke.

Para penghuni Surga

AL-QURAN DAN RAHASIA ANGKA-ANGKA

(I'JAZ 'ADADI)


Para Penghuni Surga



Ungkapan ashab al-jannah (para penghuni surga) dalam Al­Quran disebut sebanyak 12 kali. Yang dimaksud dengan surga ialah yang ditetapkan Allah bagi orang-orang yang benar, bukan surga dunia sebagaimana dimaksudkan dalam firman Allah SWT: "Sesungguhnya Kami uji mereka sebagaimana Kami uji penghuni­-penghuni surga …..." Surga yang dimaksudkan oleh ayat ini adalah surga dunia. Ada pun pada ayat selain ini, surga yang dimaksud adalah surga yang ditetapkan oleh Allah SWT bagi hamba-hamba­Nya yang saleh. Kata ashab al-jannah yang disebut 12 kali, sama dengan banyaknya Khalifah sepeninggal Rasulullah saw., sebagai­mana disebutkan di dalam ayat-ayat berikut ini:

Orang-Orang Pilihan (Al-Musthafun)
Setelah Rasulullah saw.



Kata ishthafa (memilih) berikut turunan katanya, dengan pengertian legitimasi Allah SWT kepada orang-orang pilihan dari dan atau bagi makhluk-Nya, disebut 12 kali dalam Al-Quran. Sesuai dengan jumlah pilihan Allah SWT sepeninggal Rasulullah saw. untuk menyelenggarakan pemerintahan di kalangan umatnya dan mewarisi Al-Kitab. Allah berfirman:


Dan apa yang telah Kami wahyukan kepadamu yaitu AI­Kitab itulah yang benar, dengan membenarkan kitab-kitab yang sebelumnya. Sesungguhnya AIIah benar-benar mengetahui lagi Maka melihat (keadaan) hamba-hamba-Nya. Kemudian kitab itu Kami wariskan kepada orang-orang yang kami pilih di antara hamba-kamba Kami; lalu di antara mereka (hamba-hamba, bukan di antara orang-orang pilihan) ada yang menganiaya diri mereka sendiri, dan di antara mereka ada yang pertengahan, dan di antara mereka ada (pula) yang lebih dahulu berbuat kebaikan dengan izin Allah.... (Fathir:31-32).


Maka yang dimaksud dengan "sabiqu" (yang lebih dulu berbuat baik) adalah Imam yang dipilih dan diwarisi Kitab oleh Allah SWT; "muqtashid" adalah orang yang konsisten dengan kebijaksanaan Imam; sedangkan "dhalimu linafsihi" adalah orang yang keluar dari jalur Imam. Dalam pengertian seperti itulah, kata ishthafa berikut turunan katanya tercantum dalam ayat-ayat berikut:

..... Sesungguhnya Allah telah memilih (isthafa) agama ini bagimu ..... (AI-Baqarah: 132)

Sesungguhnya Allah telah memilih (isthafa) Adam, Nuh, keluarga Ibrahim. ..... (Ali Imran: 33).

Katakanlah: "Segala puji bagi Allah dan kesejahteraan atas hamba-hambanya yang dipilih-Nya (isfhafa) ... (AI-Naml: 59).

Kalau sekiranya Allah hendak memilih (isthafal) anak, tentu Dia akan memilih apa yang Dia kehendaki ...... (Al­-Zumar: 59).

"Hai Maryam, sesungguhnya Allah telah memilih kamu (isthafaki), mensucikan kamu ..... (Ali Imran: 42)

..... dan melebihkan kamu (wasthafaki) atas segala wanita di dunia ( yang semasa dengan kamu). (Ali Imran: 42).

..... Nabi (mereka) berkata: "Sesungguhnya Allah telah memilihnya (isthafahu) (menjadi rajamu) dan menganugerahinya ilmu yang luas serta tubuh yang perhasa . . . (Al-Baqarah: 247).

..... sesungguhnya Aku mernilih (melebihkan) kamu (ishtha­faituka) dari manusio yang lain untuk membawa risalah-Ku dan untuk berbicara langsung dengan-Ku ..... (Al-A'raf: 144)

Kemudian Kitab itu Kami wariskan kepada orang-orang yang Kami pilih (isthafaina) di antara hamba-hamba Kami ..... (Fathir: 32).

..... dan sesungguhnya Kami telah memilihnya (isthafainahu) di dunia (AI-Baqarah: 139).

Allah memilih (yasthafa) utusan-utusan-Nya dari Malaikat dan dari manusia. (Al-Haj: 75).

Dan sesungguhnya mereka pada sisi Kami benar-benar termasuk orang-orang pilihan (Al-musthafin) yang paling baik (Shad: 47).

THE ROLE OF PAUL

THE ROLE OF PAUL
Any discussion about Christianity and its beliefs and practices cannot be complete
without an examination of the influence of Paul. Christian Bible scholars unanimously admit
that the formulation of what is now known as Christianity did not begin with Jesus but with
Paul. Every Bible produced contains more writings from Paul than anyone. In fact, all of the
books written by Paul in the Bible were written before any of the four gospels. This is a very
important fact. Does the layman Christian reflect on the radical differences between the
teachings of Jesus and the writings of Paul? The gospels were written at a time when Paul’s
ideas had already begun to take hold among the ‘gentiles’. We have already touched upon the
prevalent religious ideologies that formed Paul’s interestingly diverse background. We know
that he was a Roman citizen who was a Jew and a murderer of Jesus’ followers from
amongst the Jews. He claims to have ‘seen’ the light on a road to Damascus wherein he saw
Jesus and was filled with the ‘Holy Spirit’ and was commanded to preach to the masses.
However, when we examine closely his recounting of this very convenient story as written
by someone called ‘Luke’ in Acts, we find that there is a mountain of inconsistency in these
testimonies. In the first account of the incident that appears in Acts 9:7, it is says, ‘And the
men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.’
Just a few pages later however, the testimony changes;
‘And they that were with me saw indeed the light and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that
spake to me.’ (Acts23:9).
In these first two examples we see a major discrepancy. In one account the men with Paul
heard the voice but did not see a man. In the second account, they saw ‘light’ but did not
hear anything. In both examples, Jesus supposedly tells Paul to Arise and go into the city
(Damascus) and there he shall receive instruction. (Acts 9:6; 23:10) Alas, just a few chapters
later in his testimony to the King Agrippa, he says that Jesus actually gave him his mission
and instructions in detail right there on the road to Damascus (Acts 26:16-18). Could any of
this even hold up in a court of law? Are we to excuse these major inconsistencies from an
acknowledged enemy of Jesus and friend of Rome? How can we not accept similar disparate
witness testimony in judicial matters but in religious matters, we base our entire creed upon
accounts that are shaky at best? We have already shown the vast difference between the
gospel reports of Jesus painstakingly exhorting the people to stick to the letter of Moses’ law
14
and Paul’s renunciation of the law. In Galatians 3:13 he writes, ’Christ hath redeemed us from the
curse of the law’. And, ‘Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law’
(Romans 3:28). This is the very opposite of what Jesus is reported to have said in the gospels;
Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be
called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called
great in the kingdom of heaven.
And Matt 19:16, 17;
And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have
eternal life?
And He said unto him, Why callest thou me good? There is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou
wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
Paul even gives himself absolute authority to convert people to his way by any means, ‘All
things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.’(I Corinthians 6:12)
Jesus not only preached that the commandments of God be kept but he also kept them
himself. One cannot even imagine Jesus uttering such words yet they flow easily from the
pen of Paul without remorse. So who do the Christians actually follow, Jesus or Paul. Do
Christians follow Jesus in the worship of the One God;
Jesus said to him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul and with all thy
mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, thou shalt love thy neighbor
as thyself. (Matthew 22:36-39) And Mark 12:29,
”…The first of all commandments is , Hear, O Israel, The Lord our God is one Lord…”
Or do Christians follow Paul in the worship of Jesus as a resurrected man-deity who was
born on December 25th and who was killed and resurrected as a blood sacrifice on the 3rd
day during the spring re-birth season?
So what was Paul’s objective? It has been suggested that from the outset he was an open
enemy of the early Jewish sect of the followers of Jesus. Perhaps what is even more
intriguing is the suggestion that he went from open opposition to the early followers of Jesus
on behalf of the Roman Empire to what we have come to know today as ‘covert ops’. To
put it plainly, he may have been history’s most famous ‘secret’ agent.
A.D Ajijola states,
“Startling though the suggestion may be, it does seem at least possible that Paul was some species of Roman
agent. ’Eisenman in his book Maccabees, Zadokites, Christians, and Qumran’ was led to this conclusion on
reading the scrolls themselves, then found the references in the New Testament to support it “( The Hijacking
of Christianity).
Ajijola goes on to say,
15
“St. Paul urged his disciples to obey Rome who was ordained by God. This was an acquiescence in the
political status quo. Consequently, the Pauline Christian doctrine was fitted from the start to become the
official religion of the Roman Empire.”
Is this the person that the Christian derives their concept of the Creator of all that exists in
the universe? Is Paul a reliable enough authority in monotheism for the Christian to take his
religion from? If we take the Bible as a whole and examine the God that was described and
worshiped by Adam, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Ishmael, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, David,
Solomon, Isaiah, and all of the Prophets including the clear description of God and that was
worshipped and praised by Jesus in the gospels and contrast this with the concept of God
beginning where Paul’s writings monopolize the rest of the Bible, we must conclude that the
part that does not align with the basis laid down by the previous Prophets must originate
from somewhere else. When we also take into consideration the fact that the worship of
sun-gods, man-gods, sacrificed and risen deities who were all born during the winter solstice
of December 25th permeated the Roman Empire, parts of Asia, North Africa, and Northern
Europe, we began to see the influence of those beliefs and practices in Paul’s formation of
Christianity.

GOD OR PROPHET?

GOD OR PROPHET?
One key neglected aspect of the gospels is the overwhelming evidence that Jesus was
understood to be exactly what he was and that was a Prophet of God sent to the lost sheep
of the children of Israel. When searching for the true meanings of ‘revelation’ or ‘scripture’,
it is absolutely necessary to approach and understand the text as it was understood during
the time of its revelation. It is a must that we approach the person and mission of Jesus the
way it was understood by those who knew him and were with him. If we do not do this, we
become susceptible to misinterpretation due to someone’s cultural and linguistic baggage. In
other words, if we view the mission and person of Jesus through the eyes of someone who
did not directly walk with Jesus or through our own interpretation, we unconsciously
compromise the purity of the text. When Christians hear Muslims say that we believe in
Jesus but as a Prophet of God not as part of a trinity, they are taken aback. However, let us
examine what the very people who are reported to have met Jesus believed according to the
book of Christianity. In Matthew, Chapter 13 verses 53-56, it relates the story of how the
Jews in a synagogue in Jesus’ homeland were astonished and offended at his preaching and
began to question him. In Matthew 13:57 it says, “…but Jesus said to them,’ A Prophet is not
without honor, save in his own country, and in his own house.’”.
In Mark 6:4 it reads, But Jesus said unto them, ’A prophet is not without honor but in his own country,
and among his own kin, and in his own house.’
Also in Matthew 11:40-41;
“He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me, receiveth the One who sent me. He that
receiveth a Prophet in the name of a Prophet, shall receive a Prophet’s reward…”
In Matthew 21:10-11;
And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, who is this? And the multitude said,
This is Jesus, The Prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.
Matthew 21:46;
But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude because they took him for a Prophet.
Again, when asked about the commandments in Matthew 22:36-39;
Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said to him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart, and with all thy soul and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment.
And the second is like unto it, thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
Then in the very next verse it reads, “On these two commandments hang the law and all the prophets.”
13
In Luke 7:16 it reads, “ and there came a fear on all; And they glorified God saying, That a great prophet
is risen up among us…”
In our search for truth, we must use what is consistent in meaning and purpose. We have
already shown that an argument against the idea that Jesus was in fact a Prophet flies in the
face of consistency. The verses that may be used from the gospels to prove that Jesus was
the ‘son’ of God or one of three in a trinity have already proven to be inconsistent with the
rest of the Bible and with the gospels themselves.

Kodetifikasi Bilangan Prima


Kodetifikasi Bilangan Prima

Mufasir modern sepakat bahwa al-Qur'an dalam peng­gambarannya sangat istimewa, karena struktur sistematikanya matematis.1 Al-Qui an menggunakan kodetifikasi bilangan pri­ma secara bertingkat: surat, ayat, kata, dan huruf. Dua dekade yang lalu, pembahasan masalah seperti ini merupakan hal yang sensitif, karena bisa dipandang "memperkosa" ayat-ayat al­Qur'an. Di satu sisi, tingkat penemuan yang membahas angka­angka masih "dangkal" -- sehingga kurang menarik. Namun kini, dengan banyaknya alat bantu seperti komputer dan ke­majuan di bidang sains yang berhubungan satu sama lain, studi mengenai "kodetifikasi" al-Qur'an makin menampakkan hasil­nya yang luar biasa. Tentu saja, walaupun isinya sama. Hanya al-Qur'an mushaf Ustmani saja yang dipakai, dan hanya versi itulah yang memenuhi kriteria kodetifikasi al-Qur'an, sebagaimana bahasa aslinya pada saat wahyu diturunkan.

Penomoran surat dan penempatan ayat disusun berdasar­kan petunjuk Nabi, tidak sama dengan urutan turunnya wahyu. Hal ini membingungkan para mufasir klasik selama berabad­abad dan menjadi sasaran kritik para Orientalis. Sekarang telah diketahui, karena di samping susunan isinya yang serasi dan harmonis, pembaca yang serius akan menemukan contoh­contoh struktur bilangan prima dari ratusan struktur yang ada. Istimewa sekali karena struktur tersebut menggunakan bilang­an prima kembar, di samping ujicoba dengan menggunakan Hukum Benford untuk "melihat keaslian" al-Qur'an.

Apa benar dalam al-Qur'an terdapat kodetifikasi tertentu? Mana mungkin dalam kitab "antik" ada struktur matematika­nya?

Segala "Sesuatu" dengan Hitungan yang Teliti

Paling tidak, terdapat dua ayat yang memberikan informasi bagi kita bahwa al-Qur'an diturunkan dengan "hitungan". Pertama, dalam Surat al-Jinn, Tuhan menciptakan segala se­suatu (kejadian dan semua objek di alam semesta) dengan "hitungan yang teliti satu persatu", yaitu dari kata Arab, 'adad.

"Suyaya Dia mengetahui bahwa sesungguhnya rasut-rasul itu telah menyampaikan risalah-risalah Tuhannya, sedang sebenarnya ilmu­Nya meliputi apa yang ada pada mereka, dan Dia menghitung segala sesuatu satu persatu. (QS al-Jinn 72 : 28).

Esensi ayat ini adalah bahwa ilmu Tuhan meliputi segala sesuatu, tidak ada yang tertinggal. Semua kejadian, objek alam, penciptaan di bumi dan langit, dan struktur al-Qur'an, tidak ada yang kebetulan. Semuanya ditetapkan dengan hitungan yang sangat teliti. Sebenarnya bila diketahui, (sebagian) ilmu tersebut meliputi risalah-risalah yang disampaikan dan ilmu yang ada pada para Rasul. Dalam kehidupan modern sekarang pun, kita akan menjumpai "hitungan tersebut", mulai dari yang sederhana sampai yang paling rumit.

Oksigen (O2) memberikan kehidupan kepada semua makh­luk di bumi melalui sistem pernafasan; sangat vital. Tetapi bila kelebihan hitungan satu atom, ia akan menjadi ozon (O3); yang bila dihirup manusia boleh jadi menyebabkan bencana. Tetapi bila ditempatkan di atas atmosfer bumi, maka ia sangat berguna untuk menyerap sebagian sinar-sinar ultraviolet yang berba­haya (radiasinya) bagi makhluk di bumi. Demikian juga karbon adalah elemen kimia yang sangat penting bagi semua makhluk hidup, karena semua organisme dibangun dari senyawa kar­bon.2 Tetapi bila ia bersenyawa dengan oksigen yang sama-sama berguna. Senyawa baru tadi menjadi gas yang berbahaya bagi manusia, yaitu CO2

Lebih lanjut untuk memahami "hitungan yang terstruktur" atau al-'adad:

Hitungan yang sangat teliti atau lebih rumit kita dayntkan pada hormon manusia. Misalnya, C18H24O2 adalah horman estrogen yang bertanggung jawab atas sifat-sifat kewanitaan. Berlebih hitungan satu atom karbon saja, ia menjadi C19H28O2 Hormon testosteron, yang bertanggung jawab atas sifat-sifat pria.3

Hitungan yang terstruktur ditemukan juga pada DNA, sangat rumit dan mencengangkan:

Terdayat 3 miliar kode kimia dalam DNA yang harus dipecahkan olch ilmuwan: setiap sel manusia merupakan sebuah ensiklopedia yang memuat informasi sejuta halaman. Setiap individu manusia akan berbeda informasinya terdiri dari sekitar 100 triliun sel, artinya terdayat 100 triliun perpustakaan yang sama. Sebuah gambaran yang sulit dipercaya: 100 triliun x 1000 buku ilmu pengetahuan. Isinya Iebih banyak dari bufir pasir di dunia. Sistern hitungan ini sangat kompleks. Semua makhluk hidup diplanet ini telah diciptakan menurut Paparan kode yang ditulis dalam bahasa yang sama.4

Kedua, al-Qur'an menjelaskan bahwa untuk menambah keimanan para pembaca kitab (Yahudi, Kristen, Islam, dan lain­nya), maka ia memberikan kita "enkripsi" atau "kode" bilangan 19. Dalam bahasa al-Qur'an disebut "suatu perumpamaan yang sangat aneh", atau matsal. Berguna untuk menambah keimanan dan keyakinan bagi para pembaca yang serius, berpikir terbuka, dan beriman, tetapi menambah kebingungan bagi orang-orang yang berprasangka, tertutup dan "menentang" kitab.

Keterangan tersebut dimulai ketika kita membaca Surat al­Muddatstsir:

"Neraka (saqar) adalah pembakar kulit rnanusia. Di atasnya ada sembilan belas (19) penjaga Dan tiada Kami jadikan penjaga neraka itu melainkan dari malaikat; dan tidaklah Kami jadikan bilangan mereka itu untuk jadi cobaan bagi orang-orang kafir, supaya orang­orang yang diberi al-Kitab menjadi yakin, dan supaya orang-orang yang beriman bertambah iman nya, dan supaya orang-orang Mukmin itu tidak ragu-ragu dan supaya orang-orang yang di dalam hatinya ada penyakit dan orang-orang kafir (mengatankan): 'Apakah yang dikehendaki Allah dengan bilangan ini sebagai suatu perumpamaan?' " (al-Muddatstsir 74: 29-31)

Kisah ini awalnya dimulai ketika-menurut at-Turmudzi, yang meriwayatkan dari sahabat Nabi, Jabir ibn 'Abdillah'5 - sebagian orang Yahudi bertanya kepada sekelompok sahabat Nabi saw, "Apakah Nabi anda mengetahui jumlah penjaga neraka?" Maka turunlah ayat ini kepada Nabi, karena ditanya­kan oleh para sahabat. Riwayat lain menyimpulkan, ketika turun ayat 30 surat ini, Abu Jahal berkata, "Kalian adalah orang­orang kuat dan pemberani, apakah kalian tidak mampu mengalahkan ke-19 penjaga neraka itu? Salah seorang di antara mereka yang bernama Abu al-Ayad ibn Kaidah al-Jumahiy, berkata dengan angkuhnya, "Dengan tangan kananku kukalahkan sepuluh dan dengan tangan kiriku sembilan".

Dari situ, angka 19 menjadi "perumpamaan yang aneh" atau matsa! bagi para ilmuwan yang membaca al-Qur'an. Kare­na ditemukan ratusan struktur matematis yang berhubungan dengan bilangan prima.

Struktur Utama

Struktur matematis al-Qui an sangat bervariasi, tetapi yang penting diperlihatkan adalah struktur bilangan prima kembar 19.

Struktur Pertama

Struktur pertama berhubungan dengan jumlah surat dan banyaknya juz dalam al-Qur'an. Jumlah surat di dalam al­-Qur'an adalah 114. Angka 114 adalah angka ajaib, karena bilangan prima ke-114 adalah 619, dan 114 adalah (6 x 19). Bilangan 619 merupakan prima kembar dengan pasangan 617. Kita ketahui pula, isi al-Qui an terbagi dalam 30 juz. Angka 30 adalah bilangan komposit yang ke-19, yaitu: 4, 6, 8, 9,10,12,14, 15, 16, 18, 20, 27, 22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 30.

Struktur Kedua

Ditemukan kode-kode tertentu sebagai pengawasan paritas. Sehingga isi yang diterima diyakini asli oleh "pembaca", dan tidak berubah.

Al-Qur'an terstruktur dalam bentuk 6 x (10 + 9), yaitu 60 surat dengan nomor ayat-ayat yang genap, dan 54 surat dengan nomor ayat-ayat yang ganjil. Contohnya adalah al-Fatihah dengan 7 ayat berarti surat dengan ayat ganjil. Tetapi al-Baqarah dengan 286 ayat merupakan surat dengan ayat genap.

Prof. Abdullah Jalghoom dari Yordania menemukan suatu ketentuan paritas dengan kondisi di atas; jumlah ke-60 surat dengan ayat-ayat genap adalah 3.450 atau (345 x 10) dan jumlah nomor surat ke-54 dengan ayat-ayat ganjil adalah 3.150 atau (345 x 9). Total jumlah nomor surat adalah 6.555 atau (345 x 19). Dari sisi matematis, bilangan tersebut adalah 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6+7+....+114=6.555.

Dengan demikian, nomor surat dan jumlah ayat-ayatnya tidak dapat dipertukarkan - jika tertukar - struktur di atas tidak berlaku. Misalnya, Surat al-Fatihah ditukar tempatnya dengan Surat al-Baqarah maka jumlah ayat-ayat yang genap menjadi 3.449 dan jumlah ayat-ayat yang ganjil menjadi 3.151.

Struktur Ketiga

Parity check juga ditemukan dalam pembagian nomor surat dengan jumlah ayatnya-menjadi satu kesatuan yang tak terpi­sahkan. Al-Qur'an dengan 114 surat terbagi dua susunannya:

1. 57 surat yang homogen, di mana nomor suratnya sama dengan jumlah ayat yang dikandungnya, yaitu genap-genap atau ganjil-ganjil Contoh Surat al-Fatihah atau "Pembuka­ari' dengan nomor surat 1 atau ganjil, jumlah ayat yang dikandungnya juga ganjil, yaitu 7 ayat. Contoh lain adalah Surat al-Baqarah atau "Sapi Betina". Nomor surat 2 atau genap, jumlah ayat 286 atau genap pula. Surat homogen ini, jumlah nomor surat dan jumlah ayatnya adalah 6.236, atau sama banyaknya dengan jumlah ayat al-Qur'an seluruhnya!

2. 57 surat yang heterogen, di mana nomor suratnya berlawan­an dengan jumlah ayatnya, yaitu genap-ganjil atau ganjil­genap. Misalnya, Surat Ali'Imran, nomor surat 3 atau ganjil, jumlah ayat 200 atau genap. Jumlah nomor surat dan jumlah ayatnya adalah 6.555 atau sama dengan jumlah nomor surat dari 1 sampai dengan 114, (1+2+3+4+....+114). Dengan rumus sederhana:

( N + 1 ) / 2 x N = 115 / 2 x 114 = 115 x 57 = 345 x 14 = 6.555

Bila kedua kelompok surat ini dijumlahkan, akan meng­hasilkan bilangan prima: 6.236 + 6.555 =12.791, bilangan prima ke-1.525. Struktur ini merupakan enkripsi antara jumlah nomor surat dengan jumlah ayat al-Qur'an.

Struktur Keempat

Berpasangan sempurna dan simetris. Pemilihan angka 114 sangat luar biasa. Pembaca akan mendapatkan jumlah surat yang sama banyaknya, yaitu masing-masing 38 surat. Partisi kiri dan kanan, atau kelompok 1 dan 3, jumlah nomor surat menghasilkan bilangan,yang simetris sempurna sama banyak­nya, dan merupakan kelipatan 19, yaitu (19 x 114). Sedangkan partisi tengah menghasilkan bilangan kelipatan 19, yaitu (19 x 117). Partisi sebelah kiri adalah bilangan yang dapat dibagi habis oleh 2, tetapi bila bilangan tersebut juga dapat dibagi oleh angka 3, maka ia masuk ke partisi tengah. Sedangkan partisi kanan, adalah bilangan yang tidak dapat dibagi 2 dan atau 3, atau juga merupakan sisanya. Lebih detail, dijelaskan dalam Tabel 42.7

Struktur Kelima

Hanya ada 19 surat, tidak lebih tidak kurang-dari 114 surat-di mana jumlah nomor surat dengan nomor ayatnya me­rupakan bilangan prima (Tabe14.3).

Struktur Ketujuh

Al-Qur'an juga terbagi dua, 29 urat dengan sisipan huruf di permulaan surat
(fawatih), suatu kombinasi misterius dari abjad, seperti nun, shad, alif lam. Semuanya ada 14 huruf Arab yang telah digunakan. Kombinasi-kombinasi huruf itu meru­pakan awalan, dengan 2 surat pengecualian, hanya pada surat Makiah. Angka 29 adalah bilangan prima, bilangan ke-10. Sisanya 85 surat, dengan faktor prima 5 dan 17, tidak mempu­nyai sisipan huruf. Berhubungan dengan perintah shalat, 5 kali sehari berjumlah 17 raka'at.

Dari 29 surat yang mempunyai sisipan ini, terstruktur sebagai berikut:

19 surat di mana kombinasi hurufnya merupakan ayat tersendiri. Contohnya adalah Surat al-Baqarah, surat nomor 2. Sisanya, 10 surat, hurufnya bukan merupakan ayat tersendiri.

19 surat di mana nomor suratnya bukan bilangan prima. Contohnya, Surat Thaha, surat nomor 20. Sisanya,10 surat, bernomor bilangan prima: 2, 3, 7, 11, 13,19, 29, 31, 41, dan 43. Coba perhatikan, surat 19 ditempatkan pada urutan nomor 6 dari urutan bilangan prima pada 10 surat tadi, artinya (6 x 19 =114), sama banyaknya dengan jumlah surat al-Qur'an. Jumlahnya pun: 2 + 3 + 7 + 11 + 43 = 197, 199 merupakan bilangan prima kembar, bilangan prima ke-46.

Surat 19 , Maryam, merupakan surat yang ke-10 dari 29 surat
ini.

Coba perhatikan susunan surat pada tabel sebelumnya. Su­rat al-'Ankabut atau "Laba-laba", terletak di posisi tengah, de­ngan nomor surat 29. Sebelumnya terdapat 14 surat fawatif dan sesudahnya juga terdapat 14 surat fawatih. Surat fawatih ini mulai dari surat nomor 2, al-Baqarah, sampai dengan nomor 68, Surat al-Qalam. Posisi ini simetris murni. Lebih lanjut, surat ke-5 dari tengah (15) adalah surat nomor 19, dan surat ke-5 setelahnya adalah surat nomor 38, atau (2 x 19). Perhatikan pula, dari Surat Maryam nomor 19 sampai akhir, ada 19 surat fawatih. Demikian pula, sebelum Surat Shad nomor 38, terdapat 19 surat fawatih.

Struktur atau bentuk (10 + 19) surat-surat ini makin jelas, karena baik Surat Maryam maupun Surat Shad sama-sama ter­letak di posisi nomor 10, dari urutan depan dan dari urutan belakang.


Apakah Muhammad saw yang Mengatur Itu?

Profesor Bassam Jarrar8 menemukan bahwa, selain pengaturan jumlah huruf-huruf sisipan tadi, turunnya surat teratur berdasarkan nomor urutan dan jumlah huruf sisipan.

1. Surat al-Qalam, bernomor 68, adalah surat pertama fawatih yang turun dengan sisipan huruf Nun. Fawatih ini tidak diulangi (hanya satu kali), karena berikutnya surat 50, Qaf, dengan huruf qaf. Diulang kedua kalinya pada ayat pertama surat 42, asy-Syura. Di sini menariknya: surat ketiga yang muncul adalah surat nomor 38, Shad, dengan huruf fawatih shad. Diulang hingga tiga kali pula, yaitu ayat pembukaan pada surat nomor 7 dan nomor 19. Lalu, apa artinya? Artinya, turun pertama kali, nun dipakai satu kali. Turun kedua, qaf dipakai 2 kali. Turun ketiga, shad, dipakai 3 kali.

2. Di antara surat fawatih, surat nomor 2 sampai dengan surat
nomor 68, terdapat 38 surat bukan fawatih, atau (2 x 19)! Lebih lanjut, bilangan 38 ini sama dengan kemunculan huruf fawatih: Alif, Lam, Mim, dan sebagainya.

Coba perhatikan surat-surat fawatih ini. Mereka disusun sangat unik, simetris satu sama lain, dan surat nomor 29 dile­takkan di tengah-tengah 29 surat.

Dengan kata lain 114 surat al-Qur'an ditandai dengan 19 surat yang membentuk bilangan prima-jumlah nomor surat dan ayatnya. Ditandai pula dengan 29 surat fawatih, di mana dalam 29 surat itu di-enkripsi dengan 19 surat lagi berupa huruf fawatih yang merupakan ayat tersendiri. Simetris sempurna karena surat bernomor 29 diletakkan di tengah diapit simetris oleh surat 19 dan surat bernomor 38 atau (19 x 2). Sedangkan sisanya 85 surat, (17 x 5), adalah hasil kali dua bilangan prima kembar berhubungan dengan shalat. "Kebetulan" kata Allah yang ke-19 berdampingan dalam satu ayat dengan kata shalat yang ke-17 dalam Surat an-Nisa' ayat 103, bukan surat fawatih (dijelaskan dalam Bab Shalat).

Kita lihat juga dari tabel di atas, dapat disimpulkan bahwa bentuk kombinasi huruf fawatih ada 14 bentuk, sama dengan huruf Arabnya, yaitu sisipan dari: N, Q, H, S, T, 'A, Y, H, K, R, 'Sh, M, L, A.

Surat al-'Ankabut: Penengah, Sistem Heksagonal, Gelembung Alam Semesta

Surat nomor 29, al-'Ankabut atau Laba-laba, atau surat penengah, karena terletak di tengah-tengah surat fawatih, urutan ke-15. Berjudul laba-laba karena dalam surat ini terdapat hanya satu ayat yang menceritakan "rumah laba-laba", yaitu pada ayat 41.

"Sesungguhnya rumah yang palin
g lemah adalah rumah laba­laba" (al-'Ankabut 29 :41).

Lalu mengapa al-Qur'an menunjuk rumah laba-laba sebagai perumpamaannya?

Dalam matematika, bilangan 29 adalah bilangan prima kembar dengan pasangan 31. Bagian paling menarik dari surat ini adalah hubungan antara "rumah laba-laba" yang berbentuk hexagonal atau bersudut 6 dengan bilangan prima kembar, serta hipotesis susunan (banyak) alam semesta.

Bentuk heksagonal, dengan segi 6 bersudut 60° adalah bentuk geometri yang paling efisien dalam memanfaatkan se­mua area yang ada, karena dengan volume yang sama tetapi didapat dengan jumlah keliling yang paling sedikit, dibanding­kan bentuk segi lainnya9 - misalnya, segi 8 atau segi 5. Tidak heran pola heksagonal ini-menurut NASA - dapat ditemukan di mana-mana, di alam semesta, baik teratur (tertutup) maupun tidak teratur (terbuka), karena efisien. Misalnya, sarang laba­laba, sarang (sel) lebah, molekul atom, sel surya, kabel serat optik, buah jeruk, dan kristal es yang membeku 10. Hipotesis dari para ahli kosmos di Inggris, misalnya, Sir Martin Rees: bentuk (banyak) alam semesta seperti tersusun dari dengan ukuran yang sama sebuah gelembung kecil yang dikelilingi 6 gelem­bung-gelembung lainnya-menjadikan bentuk yang paling kompak dengan pola heksagonal. Lalu mengapa angka 6? Ilmuwan matematika berpendapat bahwa umumnya kelipatan angka 6 selalu diikuti oleh bilangan prima baik sebelumnya atau sesudahnya. Bahkan beberapa di antaranya membentuk bilangan prima kembar yang istimewa; bilangan 29 dan 31, di tengahnya terdapat angka 30, (6 x 5). Bilangan 17 dan 19, di tengahnya angka 18, (6 x 3), dan bilangan 5 dan 7, di tengahnya angka 6. Bilangan lainnya adalah 41 dan 43, di tengahnya angka 42 (6 x 7). Susunan seperti ini, yang diyakini oleh sebagian besar ahli astrofisika sebagai susunan multi universes; yaitu 1 + 6. (satu di tengah, dikelililingi 6 lainnya).

Faktanya, Surat al-'Ankabut bernomor 29, pada ayat 41 (laba-laba): kedua-duanya adalah bilangan prima kembar, de­ngan angka yang diapit bilangan 30 dan 42, merupakan pola heksagonal pula atau sistematika angka 6.

Sehubungan dengan angka 41, kriptogram Frank Drake menggunakan kode 1271 garis : produk dari bilangan prima 31 dan 41. Peralatan ini dapat dipergunakan untuk memecahkan kode komunikasi antargalaksi, yang diterima dari sinyal-sinyal ETI, Extra Terrestrial Intelligent.11

Nah, sekarang pembaca mendapat pengertian baru, mengapa struktur jumlah surat al-Qur'an "kebetulan" merupa­kan rangkaian matematik (19 x 6), dengan koefisien angka 6, yang sebelumnya tidak terungkap. Sekali lagi, bilangan prima kembar 5 mewakili jumlah shalat dalam sehari, prima kembar 7 mewakili lapisan langit dan bumi (7lapisan dimensi/alam), 17 mewakili jumlah rakaat shalat,19 mewakili kalimat basmallah dan struktur al-Qur'an, dan 29 mewakili surat-surat fawatih. surat-surat lainnya menggunakan bilangan prima 31 dan 41, misalnya Surat ar-Rahman dengan bilangan 31 dan ayat di atas menggunakan bilangan 41. Semua mewakili bilangan prima kembar yang mengapit pola angka 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36,....n.

Surat "Penengah" ini seolah-olah ingin menunjukkan ra­hasia alam semesta-dari pola heksagonal sarang laba-laba:

Sebagian besar astrofisikawan percaya bahwa susunan multi alam semesta ('alamin) mengambil pola heksagonal; di mana "gelembung (bubble) tengah" dikelilingi oleh "6 gelembung lainnya dengan ukuran sama". Susunannya kira-kira sama dengan ice flake, yang dibentuk oleh molekul air. Ini adalah gambaran yang palirng mendekati - karena (multi) alam semesta belum dapat dibuktikan ­ hanya diyakini oleh para ilmuwan dengan pengukuran gaya gravitasi di kosmos dan jalannya cahaya.12

Al-Qur'an yang disusun berdasarkan petunjuk Nabi Muhammad (taufiqi), tidak sesuai dengan urutan turunnya wahyu, ternyata mempunyai struktur yang spesifik. Penempatan surat, ayat, jumlah surat, jumlah ayat, semuanya tersusun sedemikian rupa sehingga kehilangan, bertambah atau tertu­karnya ayat, apalagi tertukarnya surat, membuat kekacauan makna dan struktur tadi. Ini membuktikan bahwa al-Qur'an telah terkodetifikasi secara sempurna sejak 'azali.
