�And my brother, Aaron, he is more eloquent
in speech than I, so send him with me as a helper to confirm me.
Surely I fear that they would reject me. He said: We will strengthen
thine arm with thy brother, and We will give you both an authority, so
that they shall not reach you. With Our signs, you two and those who
follow you, will triumph. �Holy Qur�an, Surah 28, verses 34
& 35
For nearly 22 years, I have been reading the entire Holy Qur�an
once a week in portions called Manzils. Some of the companions of the
Prophet were guided to do this by His instructions. Not everyone was
able to accomplish this and, consequently, it was not made obligatory.
Surah 73, verse 20 explains the Mercy of Allah regarding His servants,
�Thy Lord knows, indeed that thou passest in
prayer nearly two-thirds of the night, and (sometimes) half of it, and
(sometimes) a third of it, as do a party of those with thee. And Allah
measures the night and the day. He knows that (all of) you are not
able to do it, so He has turned to you (mercifully); so read of the
Qur�an that which is easy for you. He knows that there are sick among
you, and others who travel in the land seeking of Allah�s bounty, and
others who fight in Allah�s way. So read as much of it as is easy (for
you), and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate and offer to Allah a
goodly gift. And whatever of good you send on beforehand for
yourselves, you will find it with Allah � that is best and greatest in
reward. And ask forgiveness of Allah. Surely Allah is Forgiving,
Merciful.�
This verse closes Surah 73 which is followed by the 74th Surah
which reveals the Number 19 in verse 30. It was in the latter part of
1980 following my first introduction to the mathematical code of the
Number 19 in The Holy Qur�an, through my meeting with the late Dr.
Rashad Khalifah, when I began reading the Holy Qur�an following the
method of the 7 Manzils.
This period of inspiration which corresponded to December 1,
occurred on a Monday, the same month set aside by The Honorable Elijah
Muhammad for the Nation of Islam�s observance of the Holy Month of
Ramadan. It has been through this study of the Holy Qur�an�s
mathematical code-examining word per word, letter per letter, and
number per number, through which much information has been revealed
that I have never published before until this present moment.
Gradually as I continue this series, Unveiling The Number 19, I
will share more details of how this system works in unveiling hidden
truths. The Celebration of Saviours� Day this year, both in Los
Angeles and Chicago, comes at a critical turning point in our Nation�s
history and marks the 25th Anniversary of Minister Farrakhan�s Divine
Work and Mission as Servant of Allah and Greatest Helper of The Most
Honorable Elijah Muhammad.
I will increasingly share this methodology of reading The Holy
Qur�an in this numerical sequencing of chapters which parallels Master
W. Fard Muhammad�s Divine Teachings to us through the Honorable Elijah
Muhammad in a coded Mathematical Language that reveals the secrets of
the Universe and unveils our human destiny.
The 25th Surah of The Holy Qur�an is entitled, Al-Furqan which
literally means to make a distinction between right and wrong as well
as the Discrimination between Truth and Falsehood. It is not a
coincidence that The Honorable Elijah Muhammad chose the Name
Farrakhan for His choice Minister and Helper in the Cause of the
Resurrection of his Mentally Dead Nation and People. Surah 25 contains
77 verses. If you prefix the number 19 in front of 77, you get the
year 1977, the year when the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan was
called to fulfill his part of the Divine Mission to Rebuild the Nation
of Islam under the Leadership of The Honorable Elijah Muhammad.
Within this same Surah, verse 35 we read, �And certainly We gave
Moses the Book and We appointed with him his brother Aaron, an aider.
Then We said: Go you both to the people who reject Our messages, So We
destroyed them with utter destruction.� I close this article with this
reminder that Minister Farrakhan is not only eloquent in speech but he
is a gifted violinist. The stringed instruments are used in the
scripture to describe the prayers of the Saints.
The harp, as an example, is always sounded metaphorically by the
angels of God. David is noted as being given a scripture through
musical incantation with the use of the lyre. It is very interesting
that the Honorable Elijah Muhammad is said to have commented to the
Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan that he reminded him of David. Are
we on the threshold of our transition to a higher expression of the
Divine Majesty of God that will be revealed through music? The
Beethoven Violin Concerto opened our Saviours� Day Convention on Feb
13, 2002, with triumphant success in exhibiting an art form of
communication that is universal. Is this a sign of what is yet to
come?
When Pharaoh learned of the success of Moses and Aaron, he called
his chiefs to oppose their God. We read this in Surah 28, verse 38,
�And Pharaoh said: O chiefs, I know no god for
you besides myself: so kindle a fire for me, O H�m�n, on (bricks of)
clay, then prepare for me a lofty building, so that I may obtain
knowledge of Moses� God, and surely I think him a liar.� �Holy
Qur�an, Surah 28, verse 38.
To be continued.
