Frequently Asked Questions

The Code 19 system was discovered in 1974 by Dr. Rashad Khalifa. Inspired by the verse "Over it is nineteen" (Surah 74:30), he began systematically analyzing the Quran's mathematical structure using modern computer technology.

The Quran mentions various numbers, but only 19 is introduced with a special function (74:30–31). It is described as a test of faith, a support for believers, and a response to skeptics. Moreover, it holds numerous mathematical and symbolic properties.

The Quran implies that some truths are revealed when the time is right. This suggests that the miracle was hidden like a treasure for future generations. Just as verses about astronomy or embryology became clearer with modern science, this is not a flaw in the Prophet but a sign of the Quran's timeless nature.

Even believers benefit from miracles—they refresh faith and deepen gratitude. Prophet Abraham himself asked for a miracle (2:260). The Code 19 system serves as a faith-strengthening sign in our time.

The Quran's message is powerful, but that's a subjective perception. The 19 miracle, on the other hand, is numerical and objectively verifiable. Objective evidence supports personal belief.

In the original Quranic script, the Basmala consists exactly of 19 letters. Later-added signs like shadda or extra letters do not alter this. Even classical commentators recognized this 19-letter structure.

Any book might contain random numerical coincidences, but the Quran's 19 system is holistic, consistent, and backed by hundreds of examples. It operates with structural integrity, not arbitrary formulas.

No. Personal mistakes don't invalidate the system because the data can be independently counted and verified. Even with corrections, the underlying patterns persist. What matters is the data, not the individual.

Some Quran manuscripts differ in how certain letters are written, especially Alif. But when based on the oldest manuscripts, the 19-based patterns remain consistent.

The Abjad system was later misused in sorcery, but it originally assigned numerical values to Arabic letters. We're discussing mathematical analysis, not mysticism. Also, the 19 system does not rely solely on Abjad.

Because they are structurally and semantically different words—like 'God' vs. 'godling'. We scanned the entire Quran with automated tools and the total for 'Allah' is 2698.

It depends on the counting method. Some analyses count only base forms; others include derivations. The key is that the method is clear and consistent from the start—just like in scientific studies.

The 19 system is simple yet powerful. If an example requires convoluted math, it reflects the interpreter's complexity, not the system's. True miracles shine through simplicity.

We don't claim infallibility. However, all counts were done using automated tools and match earlier documented counts. Even large language models helped with verification. You can inspect and test samples yourself.

Baha'is use the number 19 in their beliefs, but this doesn't affect the Quranic 19 system. The Quran mentioned it 13 centuries earlier. The historical timeline itself dismisses this objection.
