“786” - Does it stand for ‘BISMILLAAHIR RAHMAANIR RAHEEM’ ?

The Qur’an is not a book of mathematics or a book of symbolic numbers. The absurdity of ABJAD numbers becomes clear if you reflect upon the following numbers 66, 92, 352, 296 and 62. What do these numbers stand for? What do they mean? They are the numerical values of Allah, Muhammad (pbuh), Qur’an, Rasool, and Nabi respectively. We all know that prisoners have numbers and those numbers normally call them, but can we dare to allocate similar numbers to Allah and His Messenger? The users of 786 have the arrogance to do so, but a God conscious Muslim (a Muslim with Taqwa) will not even dream of using such numbers!

Imagine if the beautiful names like Muhammad, Mahmood, Mustapha, Abdullah, Zahid, Sajid, Rahmaan, Ahmad, Shahid, Zainab, Fatimah, Khadijah and Aishah are transformed into numbers, 92, 98, 199, 142, 17, 68, 299, 56, 305, 69, 135, 622 and 376 respectively! How ridiculous these numbers sound does not require any imagination. Is it not and insult to call people by numbers, is it not, then, the height of arrogance to reduce the Qur’anic verses and Soorahs to meaningless numbers?

BISMILLAAHIR RAHMAANIR RAHEEM, the first verse of the Qur’an has a message and a meaning, but the number 786 has no significance.

Allah revealed the Qur’an in Arabic. Let the Qur’an speak for itself, for it requires no advocates: “A Book whose verses have been detailed, an Arabic Qur’an for a people who know…“(41:3); “Indeed, We have made it an Arabic Qur’an that you might understand.“(43:3); “The tongue of the one they refer to is foreign, and this Qur’an is [in] a clear Arabic language.” (16:103) “And indeed, the Qur’an is the revelation of the Lord of the worlds … In a clear Arabic language.” (26:192-195); “Indeed, We have sent it down as an Arabic Qur’an that you might understand.” (12:2).

It is a matter of FACT that Allah has revealed the Qur’an in Arabic, as stated in the above selection and in many other verses. Why was the Qur’an NOT revealed in mathematical figures? WHY ARE WE THEN, CONVERTING IT INTO NUMBERS??? Did Allah, perhaps, commit an error, which our scholars are trying to rectify? (Na’oozubillah). What message would mankind have received if the pages of the Qur’an had filled with numbers and nothing else? It would have been unintelligible and a mystifying conundrum!

We are instructed to recite the Qur’an Majeed, as can be seen from the following verses: “And [it is] a Qur’an which We have separated [by intervals] that you might recite it to the people over a prolonged period. And We have sent it down progressively.” (17:106); “so RECITE what is easy [for you] of the Qur’an” (73:20).

Now would one recite the Qur’an if it is reduced to numbers? As an example, we shall reduce the Soorah Fatiha to numerical figures for the benefit of the reader.

10189

Does this mean that merely reading 10189 we have read the whole of Soorah al-Fatiha? How easy it is to gain reward by just repeating the numbers! For example, to recite Soorah al-Fatiha ten times, we only have to multiply by ten, i.e. 10189 x 10 = 101890, and just recite that number. Similarly the whole of the Qur’an can be reduced to numbers. Meaningless and of NO significance, the numbers will NOT have a message for the whole mankind!

Those who invented the “786”, are GUILTY of tampering with the text of the Holy Qur’an. Muslims are invited to give up this EVIL and disgusting practice of using 786. It is, I repeat, an innovation, evil and in NO WAY sacred. It is a conspiracy against the kitaab (book) of Allah.

This old game of numbers was practised by the ancient Egyptians, as did many other civilisations. Islaam came to ELIMINATE ALL such superstitions, mysteries and numerological mumbo-jumbo. However, Muslims are still enslaved to the number game, and think that 786 represents BISMILLAAHIR RAHMAANIR RAHEEM.

May ALLAH give us all the guidance to practice what is most Pleasing to Him!

And whoever puts his trust in Allah, then He will suffice him. Verily, Allah will accomplish His purpose. Indeed Allah has sent a measure for all things.” (Quran: 65: 2-3)

THE MOST EMOTIONAL RECITATION EVER

A Secret for the Acceptance of Dua

Dua

Shaykh Zulfiqar Ahmad Naqshbandi (DB) in his book “Dua- The Essence of Worship” shares a deep secret with his readers- A Secret for the acceptance of Dua. He says in his book: Some say: Hazrat we make a lot of dua’s but it is not accepted, students many times say that they are in difficulties, even the ulama’s and scholars request for dua’s. He says: I will teach my friends a secret for the acceptance of dua’s. If you practice upon it, InshaAllah, you will no longer need to search of the Isme Azam. You will see it before your eyes your dua’s being accepted just as you complete it. I have experienced this not a hundred times but a thousand times. The action is small but the results are great. The secret for the acceptance of dua’s that the author has learnt from his elders and that he has experienced thousands of times is:

Whenever a time comes in your life when you have the opportunity to commit a sin and you refrain due to fear of Allah, at that very moment, make a dua to Allah and Allah will InshaAllah, accept your dua at that very moment.

After one has refrained from a particular sin, any dua done with full faith, full trust and full humility comming from the depths of the heart should suffice for acceptance, however, we would like to share a simple general format of making dua, which InshaAllah, will complement your dua’s
