New Totals New Miracles

It should be further noted that there is a vast difference between the figures for the eight soorahs prefixed by Alif, Laam, Meem claimed by Dr. Khalifa in his booklet The Perpetual Miracle of Muhammad (pub. 1976)[67] and those found in his mistranslation of the Qur’aan entitled, Quran: The Final Scripture (pub. 1981)[68] and repeated in his compendium, Quran: Visual Presentation of the Miracle, (pub. 1982)[69]. His 1976 totals for the soorahs was 26,676, a convenient multiple of 19 (19 x 1404), whereas his later figures were not combined to make any claims.

When his followers and well-wishers helpfully pointed out obvious mistakes in his totals, which could not be explained away (like those for Meem and Laam), Rashad was obliged to make modifications to retain his credibility. However, he cleverly used it to his advantage.

However, the greatest differences were in the totals of the Alifs. How does Rashad Khalifa account for a difference of 90 Alifs in Soorah al-Baqarah, 57 Alifs in Soorah Aal‘Imraan, 11 Alifs in Soorah as-Sajdah and 10 in Soorah al-‘Ankaboot? He does not. Most of these differences were made by Khalifa, himself in order to set up more imaginary multiples. The differences in Alif totals are nothing but the result of arbitrary juggling, as previously demonstrated, in order to produce more miracles. In the early figures, the miraculous multiple of 19 did not show up in the individual totals for these soorahs. It only appeared in the grand total of all the letters for all seven soorahs. However, in the new figures, the totals for each individual soorah become a multiple of 19!!! Thus, seven new “miracles” replaced one previous “miracle”.

Al-Baqarah (2)	9,899 (19 x 521)
Aal ‘Imraan (3)	5662 (19 x 298)

Ar-Room (30)	1254 (19 x 66)
Luqmaan (31)	817 (19 x 43)
As-Sajdah (32)	570 (19 x 30)

The figures for both Soorahs 7 and 13 are deliberately not given in either Quran: The Final Scripture or Quran:Visual Presentation of the Miracle. Why? God alone knows what other miracles he had planned.
