Which Quran Version is the More Authentic?[ 5 vote(s) ]
1.Hafs (widely used in most of the world) 0 / 0%
2.Warsh (mainly restricted to northwest Africa) 0 / 0%
3.Rashad Khalifa's (has been altered based on 19-theory) 4 / 80%
4.A mixture of all three 1 / 20%

Peace,

This poll is being conducted at the Free-Minds.Org forum...But I wanted to see the responces here as well.

Quote:

I would like to open up a discussion on the textual authenticity of the Quran's verses, and to question whether we follow 'faith' or whether we are relying on emperical evidence and data to support our beliefs.

Salam,
Actually RK's version is based on the hafs version with the exception of the two verses 9:128&129. Be4 the hafs was the most authentic. U can forget abt warsh n others. GOD Bless!

Lyath,

Warsh is not a different Qur'An. Due to diffrerent recitations the lettering is different in vvarious traditions.

You guys are mixing the punctuation and recitation with the menaing and wording. For example if there is a word written as MLK in the original writing. Some read this as Malak and added harakah according to this reading and some read this word as Malik and added harkah according to this reading. But no one has changed the roiginal MLK. There fore there are not many Qur'Ans including warsh. But there are many different recitations.

One thing about warsh though even trhough there are same ayahs in that Qur'An some ayahs in the others was connected to each other making one ayah. So even though ayah count is different the contents are the same due to some ayahs in the hafs are connected to each other making one ayah out of two ayahs.

Rashad Khalifah issue is different. He suggested to extract two ayahs from the end of surah 9. NOw his suggest9ion caused a different Qur'An in the history of Muslims. But definitely he made a mistake by doing that so.

So your poll should be like this;

Which Qur'An is right;

Rashad Khalifah's or the rest.

Dear Layth:

A very informative and well presented article! Mashallah. English speakers may find similar information in the beginning of Muhammad Hamidullah's translation.

It has always been my position that the words and letters of the Quran should be considered with no dots and diatrical marks. We might be able to read a word in more than one way, then we should accept all those readings as Quranic. However, if one reading contradicts another verse, then the consistent reading should be chosen.

I could give a few example from my Turkish translation in which I preferred a different reading. Inshallah later.

As for differences involving addition annd subtraction of words or phrases, I believe we can critcally evaluate the issue and use the mathematical structure of the Quran if it involves (sure, with our limited knowledge of it) to reach a decision.

Inshallah, we will discuss each difference in the side notes of the Reformist Translation.

I did not read all the article but I browsed it and I found in the end an excellent suggestion how to deal with the problem. I am in agreement with you on that suggestion and congratulate you for your research skills, clearity in reasoning, attitude in research, and courage to damand evidence and reason for commonly held beliefs.

Peace,
Edip

Khi- Salam. I went through the article. Wht abt the word 'Rahman'? U havent mentioned tht. If u dont count verse 1:1 as bismillah then Alrahman count goes down to 56(not ZMN). So bro it doesnt work all fine with warsh. GOD Bless!

Doesn't it?

I didn't want to give everything away in the article Wink

The count works perfectly...

Here is the clue:

What other word did Rashad have a problem with that was never resolved correctly?

What is the connection between the two?

Khi- How can u say tht it works perfectly when according 2 ur rule of counting from warsh the word Arrahman no longer remains a mutiple of nineteen. IF U DONT COUNT THE FIRST BISMILLAH IN WARSH THEN IT MAYBE OK FOR RAHEEM N ALLAH BUT ARRAHMAN IS NO LONGER A MULTIPLE OF NINETEEN. Get it now? GOD Bless!

Dear Layth:
As i said to Khi on chat line my study and background do not qualify me to vote for your question. As isaid to Khizer suppose that all these copies you are using for your search is destroyed and and many copies as I posted (190) is available.
As I have stated many times I consider code 19 like a very delicate calibration tools are used in industry to recover flaws and error which could happen by any reason. Rashad used this tool in his way and you use it in your method. But the argument is about 9:128-129.
You claim by your method is not necessary to remove those verse as the number of God and vases will multiple of 19. Khi has found that such changes could damage other interlocks with number of Rahman divisible of 19.

But I see there are many other cases that are rejecting those 2 verses. I see that you are trying to reject only only 3 cases of 46 cases in this file
http://www.submission.org/tampering.html


With trust and honestly I have seen from your works in past please show us how you use your method for another 43 cases. Even if you be able to do so the following files are line up for your check up for accuracy and in case using you methods to have same interlocks and interconnections.
http://www.message-of-god.com/Simple%20to%20under_1.htm
http://y19.net/suratorder.html

Wish you good luck

Let us presume that you will be able to use your method for those files!
But the problem is not ended because authenticity of those verses are questionable when one of Quranic attributes of GOD

when Raheem is used for human .
Do you think that God here wanted to give same weight of His to Mohammed?
Yusef Ali has translated in al other cases Most Merciful. but in this verse uses all lower characters “ most merciful “ (Quranic attributes of GOD for human )
I would like to know you translated this?
Peace.

More damage is actually being done mathematically when you remove those words from the Quran (note I do not refer to them as 'verses' since that is now an arbitrary definition).

The count of the word 'Allah' is corrected.
The count of the word 'Raheem' is corrected.
The count of the word 'Rahman' is corrected (yes, 56 is the correct count, not 57).

'Rahman' is marked directly with the word 'Quran' in 55:1-2.

Rahman = 56, Quran = 58
Rahman 'complements' Quran = 114 (total number of chapters)

To get over the problem created by miscounting 'Rahman', Rashad's count had to state that the 'Quran' count is "57" which is not correct and never has been.

Do not use the word 'verses' as if they refer to text and cannot be sepereated. We know now for a fact that we can have different verse counts while retaining the entire text as is.

I can say that Chapter 9 has 127 verse stops without having to touch the text...

However, the answer to how many verse 'stops' has not been answered in the article I posted and still has a way to go (so you are pre-empting the discussion).

My initial review of this matter shows that the true count appears to be a combination of all the different verse counts and not just one.

There is still way to go before we will know for sure...But in my opinoin that is where to start.

Ibrahim is called 'Haleem' 9:114, 11:75.

And so is God 5:101.

Does that mean Ibrahim and God are equal?

God is not just 'Raheem' in the Basmalla, He is 'AL-Raheem'.

Mohammed, or any human, can be 'Raheem'.

Khi- Salam. We shall see GW. N by no means is the verse numbering an arbitrary selection, at least not 4 me.

[quote title]

Khi- False. All the words in the Bismillah have 2 be a multiple of 19. If not then the greatest of all phenmena is destroyed. Didnt u know tht thte GVs of ONLY 4 Names of GOD in Quan correspond exactly 2 the counts of the 4 words in the Bismillah? They r Zul Fadlil Azeem(2698, corresponding 2 Allah), Jam'i(114, corresponding 2 Raheem), Majeed(57, corresponding 2 Rahman) n Wahid(19, corresponding 2 Ism n Shaheed). Also plz visit:
http://www.submission.org/miracle/miracle19x.html
n see the undeniable mathematical relation in which the word 'Bism' divids the Quran into three parts.

Khi- Wht u have done above is arbitrary selection. Btw did u know tht in counting the word 'Quran' RK did not count 'Quranan' which was done in the count of 'Raheem' 2 get 57. Bro Edip thererfore also refuted the count of 'Quran' 2 be 57. Although i do have my reasons 2 accept this count of Quran 2 be 57 im honest 2 pt out tht the count maybe controversial. 2ndly ur cobination of Rahman with Quran is a complete out of the blue arbitrary selection. If ud have used 'Kareem' or 'Majeed' which r actually attributes of the Quran then we cld have talked abt it but even then it wld have been an arbitrary selection.

Khi- 2day the most popular is the hafs version n "coincidentally" the verse count, word count, etc RK used supported tht version perfectly wwith the exception of 9:128-129. So obviously the verse numbering was Divine plan n this was perfectly shown through code-19.

[quote title]

[/quoe]

Khi- We dont care 2 find verse stops anymore. The code-19 is in harmony with the Quranic verses so tht job is done.

And so is God 5:101.

Does that mean Ibrahim and God are equal?

God is not just 'Raheem' in the Basmalla, He is 'AL-Raheem'.

Mohammed, or any human, can be 'Raheem'.


Khi- I know tht n even Joseph was called 'Al-Azeez' in Quran which is also an attribute of GOD. But Rahman n Raheem r UNIQUE attributes of GOD 4 they r the ONLY ones mentioned in the Bismillah. GOD Bless!

Peace all,

I believe that the version of Rashad Khalifa is the correct one, based on Hafs version. The following configuration is what convinces me:

The Shell
  • 114 suras = 19x6
  • 6234 + 112 verses = 6346 or 19x334 The number 6+3+4+6 = 19 , thus the probability of getting any 19 multiple whose sum of the digit is 19 is not so high (from 1 to 10000 there are 33 numbers which possess this property)
  • The sum of verses in the first 19 suras is: 2346 Note: 6234 is the 19th permutation of 2346
  • Definition: a sura is homogenous, when its number is odd and the number of its verses is also odd, or when its number is even and the number of its verses is also even. a sura is heterogenous, when it is not homogenous. There are 57 homogenous suras. There are 57 heterogenous suras.
    • The sum of the sura numbers + the verse numbers in the homogenous area only: 6234 (the same as the total amount of numbered verses in the Quran)
    • The sum of the sura numbers + the verse numbers in the heterogenous area only: 6555 (the same as the sum of the numbers from 1 to 114) .... For example Sura 3 is heterogenous because it has 200 verses. If it had 198 verses only (for example) then it would be still heterogenous, but the sum of the heterogenous area will be 6553 which has nothing to do with 6555 or ∑ N (N from 1 to 114) or 19x345. Anyone can try random configurations for 114 chapters and see how difficult it is to get such configuration by random choice
  • The Sigma notation ∑ (also called summation notation) is shorthand for summing a series. The expression to the right of the Sigma is the formula that you plug each number in the series into. Now we can apply following function on each sura: f(sura) = S + V + Sigma(1 to verse numbers) f(sura) = S + V + ∑ N (where N is from 1 to V) S: sura no. V: number of verses in the sura This function means: we add the sura number, the number of verses in this sura and the sum of the numbers from 1 to the number of verses in this sura. For sura 1 we get: f(1) = 1 + 7 + (1+2+3+...+7) = 1 + 7 + 28 = 36 The sum of the 114 resulting numbers when applying this function to all 114 suras is 346199 or 19x18221 or 19x19x959. This is not a coincidence or a game of luck:
    • if we apply this function to initialed suras only, then we get as a grand sum: 190133 or 19x10007
    • if we apply this function to non-initialed suras only, then we get as a grand sum: 156066 or 19x8214
  • The Sigma from 1 to N, where N is multiple of 19 is also a multiple of 19 e.g: 1+2+3+4+....+112+113+114 is a multiple of 19 because 114 is a multiple of 19 114 ----- N \ --- \ \ / / M = 253460 or 19x13340 / --- ------ M=1 N=1 (where N from 1 to 114 and M from 1 to N)
    • This formula works also if we restrict the N to the set of initialed sura numbers; i.e. Ne( 2,3,7,10,11,12,13,14,15,19,20, 26,27,28,29,30,31,32,36,38,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,50,68 ), the grand sum will be: 15675 or 19x825
    • This formula works also if we restrict N to numbers from 1 to 114 and not a number of an initialed suras, the grand sum will be: 237785 or 19x12515
  • we know that 1/19= 0,052631578947368421052631578947368 The number 5263 is the amount of verses from 2:1 (first initial) to 68:1 (last initial)
  • Sura 74 starts with O Hidden! (74:1) and 741=19x39 but, this is also the number of verses from 74:1 to 114:6 (End of Quran)
  • In the Quran there are 30 different integer numbers mentioned: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 19, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 99, 100, 200, 300, 1000, 2000, 3000, 5000, 50,000, & 100,000. The sum of these numbers is 162146, or 19x8534.


The distribution of the word "ALLAH"

  • simply we create a table with 2 columns: S | V ------ 1 | 1 1 | 2 ... ... -------------
    • the sum of the sura column: 39045 or 19x2055
    • the sum of the verse column: 118123 or 19x6217
  • Verse, who are assigned to numbers multiple of 19 in the quran are: 19, 38, 57, 76, 95, 114, 133, 152, 171, 190, 209, 228, 247, 266, 285 In such verses the word ALLAH occurs 133 times or 19x7


The Basmalah

  • This expression consists of 19 letters
  • Now the following function alone is enough to be showing how hard the design of the basmalah can be : f(exp) = seq(word) ^ X for each word: concatenate the sequence of the word in the expression, then concatenate X X: will be many different input values (see below) for Basmalah: 1 X 2 X 3 X 4 X
    • X: is the number of letters ==> 13243646 = 19 x 19 x 36686
    • X: is the GV of the word ==> 110226633294289 = 19 x 5801401752331
    • X: is the GV of each single letter: 12 60 4021 30 30 531 30 200 8 40 5041 30 200 8 10 40 = 19 x 66336954226595422109686863843162160
    • X: is the number of letters from beginning of the expression to the end of the word: 1327313419 = 19 x 69858601
    • X: is the total GV of the letters from beginning of the expression to the end of the word: 1102216834974786 = 19 x 58011412367094
    • X: is a sum of the number of letters and the GV of the word: 110527033354295 = 19 x 5817212281805
    This is alone a very hard task for someone who wants to make a similar configuration! Now the basmala has few properties which should be mentioned here:
    • The word Bism is written differently (B S M) instead of (B A S M) as in many other places (56:74, 56:96, 69:52, 96:1)
    • The basmala occurs 2 times with a verse number assigned to it.
    • For the words: Allah Alrahman Alraheem we have GV of 684 or 19x36
  • Each of the 4 words:
    • ISM 19 occurances (+ 3 occurances of BSM)
    • Allah: 2698
    • Alrahman: 57
    • Alraheem: 114
  • If we try to find how many verses contain one of more of these words, we find: 1919 verses
  • The word 3 occurances of bism in numbered verses split the whole 6346 verses of the quran into 3 parts The number of verses in each part is:
    • part 1: from 1:1 to 11:40 has 1520 verses or 19x80
    • part 2: from 11:41 to 27:29 has 1691 verses or 19x89
    • part 3: from 27:30 to 114:6 has 3135 verses or 19x165



Now if we multiply the probabilities of each of the features mentioned in this document and multiply the probability
of the initialed suras, and take into consideration features as:

  • 365 occurances of yawm, yawma
  • 30 occurances of yawmaan, yawmayn, ayaam
  • 12 occurances of month
  • 19 occurances of years
  • earth, sun and moon align on the same line each 19 years and see in the quran that sun and moon are mentioned in the same verse together 19 times.


and that there are mathematical balances in the occurances of words like :
Dunia (this world) <115> Akhira (the hereafter)
Shaytan (any form of the word) <88> malaika (any form of the word)
etc..

we will understand that this is a very well intended design which can not be immitated.

This also demonstrates, that the word Sura is not just a chapter of a collection of verses, but a sura is a part of a complex mathematical configuration.

Who can calculate the probability for the above configuration in a statistical manner?

Best regards,
Mohamed

Salam Noor,

thanks, however this is not my work. I've just organised the information available and grouped related findings together, to show that (according to what i see & understand) this is indeed an intended design containing many mathematical patterns, which are very hard (if not impossible) to find or to step on them by luck.

Best regards,
Mohamed

Khi- False. All the words in the Bismillah have 2 be a multiple of 19. If not then the greatest of all phenmena is destroyed. Didnt u know tht thte GVs of ONLY 4 Names of GOD in Quan correspond exactly 2 the counts of the 4 words in the Bismillah? They r Zul Fadlil Azeem(2698, corresponding 2 Allah), Jam'i(114, corresponding 2 Raheem), Majeed(57, corresponding 2 Rahman) n Wahid(19, corresponding 2 Ism n Shaheed).


My friend,when dealing with God's word you should never say has to be...He does what He pleases and we follow from there...We do not force the results nor do we follow our 'hawa' (desire).

Quote:

Khi- Wht u have done above is arbitrary selection.


You mean like the decision to count only words insidethe Basmallas since the count does not produce the results desired?

Or you mean like changing to count the Basmallas when dealing with the letter/initials because that is what gives the desired results?

You want to talk facts, neither Allah, nor Rahman, nor Raheem give a count divisible by 19 if you apply it to the whole Quran as it is 'claimed' to have been revealed (even after Rashad's deletion of words).

Quote:

Btw did u know tht in counting the word 'Quran' RK did not count 'Quranan' which was done in the count of 'Raheem' 2 get 57. Bro Edip thererfore also refuted the count of 'Quran' 2 be 57. Although i do have my reasons 2 accept this count of Quran 2 be 57 im honest 2 pt out tht the count maybe controversial. 2ndly ur cobination of Rahman with Quran is a complete out of the blue arbitrary selection. If ud have used 'Kareem' or 'Majeed' which r actually attributes of the Quran then we cld have talked abt it but even then it wld have been an arbitrary selection.


You acknowledge the count of Quran is not 57...That is a start.

If you mean that 55:1-2 is an 'arbitrary' link and that I have to find only a link that you have approved (which you also did from the Quranic text - sighting 'Majeed', and 'Kareem'), then I have nothing more to add in this regards.

Quote:

Khi- 2day the most popular is the hafs version n "coincidentally" the verse count, word count, etc RK used supported tht version perfectly wwith the exception of 9:128-129. So obviously the verse numbering was Divine plan n this was perfectly shown through code-19.


Popular does not mean 'correct' (else we'd all be Christians or Hadith followers by now since that is 'popular').

As for the verse counts, I really do not want to get into a discussion on that now since I am still reviewing all the oprions on this matter...

Quote:

Khi- We dont care 2 find verse stops anymore. The code-19 is in harmony with the Quranic verses so tht job is done.


We have been commanded to verify...If you are content with what you have, then that is good for you...I for one seek truth, not what is popular or what my desire would like to follow.

Quote:

Khi- I know tht n even Joseph was called 'Al-Azeez' in Quran which is also an attribute of GOD. But Rahman n Raheem r UNIQUE attributes of GOD 4 they r the ONLY ones mentioned in the Bismillah. GOD Bless!


AL-Rahman and AL-Raheem are not Rahman and Raheem...Let's be precise in what we say.

Dear Layth:

I will not participate this discussion, since I told you that I am postponing it to a face to face discussion with you while offering you Turkish/Iranian tea and madjool dates.

Knowing your modus operandi and mine, I am almost sure that we will settle this issue in less then half day, before our tea gets cold. Smile

Peace,
Edip

Peace Edip,

I will take you up on the tea offer Smile

My intent was not to be dragged into a discusion as I believe the data/information is still relatively limited and nowhere near enough to draw any conclusions...

God willing as more information/understanding becomes available, so then will this issue be resolved.

Dear Layth:

I think, we need to focus on the project we are working on it. I was expecting a signed letter from you. I would like give you a mail address so that you could mail it to me.

If you have yahoo or msn messenger Or paltalk please let me know.

Peace,

Salaam brother Edip:

I may offer if this discussion or debate could be preformed on the line using voice by one of those messengers. I would like to record it and publish it in this tread . If you set up time and announce it with your id then members interested could join as listener too.
Peace.

Peace,

Very interesting subject.

I would not say that none is correct, but that there are differences. Maybe one of them is totally correct.

When looking at the different versions existing we can notice that what was found as SCRIPTURE of Quran has some differences. It seems as something normal, we could expect it. Just see how much versions christians found of the Evangile : 4 versions (Luc, Mathieu, Marc, Jean). But the particularity of Quran is that it is recent and it was recited and memorized by many people. That's probably why it was called Quran/Reading. So, we have the chance as muslims to have versions of the BOOK with few differences. That is for me what is called the conservation of the REMINDER/DHIKR evoqued by God. We must not try to find the perfect Quran and we must thank God for that REMINDER. Itis a great chance.
From "Ahadith" it is said that Mohammed's version of Quran was burned. Will we verify a day if this myth is true. Will we know a day the true history of the NOUZOUL...

Will we see the truth one day What

Salaam Layth.
So I and Bro Khizer had a chat without Tea with you and enjoyed. Razz Brother Khier can be a good host for chat .
At the end of short chat I asked you the following.:

Seems you did not look at that file using 15 methods by Sura and verse numbers in patterns close by 14000 digits is not accepting 128-129
I am waiting to see your response.

I think postponing discussing this issue to a face-to-face meeting might not be a good idea. We can do it via MSN messenger or paltalk.

However, I prefer discussing the issue with Layth alone. Why? I value Layth's knowledge, sincerity, and dedication to serve God, and I do not want turn our debate on this subject to a public show. I want this discussion to be a mind-to-mind, heart-to-heart exchange of ideas, without the distraction or pressure of audiance.

So brother Layth, please let me know which program you prefer for voice chat, and the times you will be available for discussion.

Peace,
Edip

If it is not a problem, I would rather have such a discussion in a text format to enable me to review and think through the arguments and data being presented more clearly.

I think some of the issues we can discuss and understand without putting them in writing. I believe that a part of this discussion can be better and more efficiently done orally rather in writing.

Peace All,

For those who don't know Skype:

This programm is great and I recommend it for such tele-conferences. Its Voice Quality is very high and on quick connections it can be as good as the voice quality of the celullar phone.

It also enables text chat and file sending, so its the best choice for people who want to make a mixture of clear voice chat and text chat

It can allow up to 4 people in the same conversation. We tested it with 3 persons and the quality of voice and speed of transmission didn't suffer at all.

Best regards,
Mohamed

I have received high recommendations from others too. I am going to download Skype and inshallah invite others to share it with me.

Thank you for your recommendation.

It was my wife who discovered this program. I was lazy to test it and since she doesn't know much about computers and internet I thought its just another shareware programm and she's just happy to hear some voices.
She was pushing me many days to use it and when i finally gave up and tested it, and it was my surprise. Now I can finally communicate with my family and my friends in other countries with a quality similar to the cellular phone!
