The Mysterious Disjointed Letters in The Quran: Evidence of Divine Authorship What is the intended divine purpose behind these mysterious letters? Disjointed Letters in the Quran are unique letter combinations that mysteriously prefix specific chapters of the Quranic text. They form combinations of between one and five Arabic letters figuring at the beginning of 29 out of the 114 chapters of the Quran. These mysterious letters have intrigued and fascinated, down through the centuries, both non-Muslim and Muslim scholars alike, and an extensive effort has been made to understand their meaning. But all interpretations have failed historically to provide any acceptable explanation or a sound theory.. The "disjointed letters" are introduced and explained in this book-what they are, where they are found, and the inherent mystery and controversy that surrounds them. Then a detailed analysis of the verses and chapters of the Quran-that are prefixed with these combinations of disjointed letters-is presented. The presented findings strengthen and deepen our understanding of these mysterious isolated letters and their purpose. The book clarifies much of the mystery that surrounds them and shows that the prefixed chapters and their respective disjointed letter combinations are not unstructured or without reason. The main conclusions of the study indicate that, in fact, they have the potential to offer indisputable evidence that the Quran is of divine origin.

Cosmology and Architecture in Premodern Islam
Author: Samer Akkach
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 0791483444
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
This fascinating interdisciplinary study reveals connections between architecture, cosmology, and mysticism. Samer Akkach demonstrates how space ordering in premodern Islamic architecture reflects the transcendental and the sublime. The book features many new translations, a number from unpublished sources, and several illustrations. Referencing a wide range of mystical texts, and with a special focus on the works of the great Sufi master Ibn Arabi, Akkach introduces a notion of spatial sensibility that is shaped by religious conceptions of time and space. Religious beliefs about the cosmos, geography, the human body, and constructed forms are all underpinned by a consistent spatial sensibility anchored in medieval geocentrism. Within this geometrically defined and ordered universe, nothing stands in isolation or ambiguity; everything is interrelated and carefully positioned in an intricate hierarchy. Through detailed mapping of this intricate order, the book shows the significance of this mode of seeing the world for those who lived in the premodern Islamic era and how cosmological ideas became manifest in the buildings and spaces of their everyday lives. This is a highly original work that provides important insights on Islamic aesthetics and culture, on the history of architecture, and on the relationship of art and religion, creativity and spirituality.

The Miracle of the Qur'an
Author: Yasir Qadhi
Publisher: Tertib Publishing
ISBN: 9672420366
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 51
Book Description
The Qur'an is the greatest miracle of God (Allah) and the Qur'an is the proof of the truthfulness of Islam. It is the standing and everlasting miracle, but very rarely, have we heard how is it a miracle? The Qur'an is the ultimate miracle of our Prophet Muhammad (Sallahualaihi wassalam - S.A.W). It is such a miracle that all the other miracles are considered trivial and inconsequential compared to the Qur'an. This is because the Qur'an is so powerful, so bright and blinding that no matter how bright the other miracles are; when you have the sun, the stars become useless. In this book, Dr. Yasir Qadhi discussed on the miracles of the Qur'an that we either have never acknowledge or we often overlooked. The miracles of the Qur'an are endless and the points are abundance to be mentioned.

The Written World of God
Author: Dunja Rasic
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 1905937687
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
The Written World of God is the first systematic overview of the science of letters ('ilm al-huruf) according to the great Andalusian spiritual master, scholar, poet and philosopher Ibn 'Arabi (d. 1240). Ibn 'Arabi defined the science of letters as familiarity with the building blocks of the Quranic revelation and everything in the world of nature. Letters are understood as visual and aural signs pointing to the mysteries of existence. The present study examines how the universe came to be, for what purpose it was created and the hierarchical structure it is endowed with. It is an old story told anew - through the 28 letters of the Arabic alphabet, their orthographic forms and the meanings attributed to them, using Ibn 'Arabi's own diagrams. Although the story could be told through geometric figures or numbers, letters were chosen on the basis of Ibn 'Arabi's doctrine that the meanings carried by the letters fully encompasses the whole of existence: God and the universe.

Esoteric Islam: A Hermetic Perspective on Islamic Traditions
Author: Sachal Smith
Publisher: Sachal Smith
ISBN:
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 171
Book Description
The book 'Esoteric Islam' discusses the mystical teachings of Quran from the standpoint of ancient mysteries and modern metaphysics. The Quran is considered as the book of divine guidance by Muslims whose main subject constitutes ‘man’. From a hermetic standpoint, the Quranic mysteries carry a great deal of connection to the hermetic arts of astrology and alchemy. Here, I have attempted to explain the manner in which symbolism of the hermetic precepts can be used to understand the Quran in its structural designs alongside the principle tenets, so as to define the notions of highest aspirations in men, and to unravel the mystique of this very impressive literature.
