sunnatullah (the mechanics of the system of
Allah), about which there is absolutely no doubt;
it is the source of comprehension for those who
seek protection.

7. Allah has set a seal upon their brains
RRRRRRR
perception of the reality; their insight is veiled.
They have deserved great suffering as the (7)
consequence of their actions.

19. Or, it is as if they are in a rainstorm (of
thoughts) from the sky (the domain of the
RRRRR
RRRRR
intellect/intellectual activity), within which is
RRRRRRRRRRR
darkness (the unknown), thunder (the clashing of
rights and wrongs) and lightning (a sudden
3
insight into the knowledge of the reality)! They (19)
block their ears to the thunder from fear of
death (in fear of losing their constructed
identities or ego in the face of the reality). Allah
is the All-Encompassing One who also
comprises (and encompasses) the existence of
the deniers of the truth.
22. He made the earth (body) a bed (vehicle),
R
R
the sky (consciousness brain) a place of living
and revealed (disclosed) from the sky (from the
depths of consciousness) rain (knowledge) and
provided thereby sustenance of life (both

mental and bodily). So do not fall into duality (22)

41. And believe in what I have revealed (Quran)
RRRRRRRR
confirming that which is with you (Torah). Be not
the first to deny this truth. And do not exchange RRRRR
My signs (the manifestations of the Names in
(41)
relation to the secret of the letter B) in your
essence, for a small price. Protect yourself from
Me!

Chapter 2: Al Baqara

Chapter 2: Al Baqara
54. Moses had said to his people, O my people, RRRRRRR
indeed by taking a calf (as a deity) you have
wronged yourselves (your essence). So repent RRRRRRR
(for denying His existence in your essence and
turning to external deifications) to the Bari (the
R
R R RRRRRRR
One who exquisitely creates existence with His (54)
Names) and kill your illusory selves (ego). In the
sight of the Bari, doing this is beneficial for you.
He will accept your repentance. Indeed, He is
the Tawwab (Accepting of Repentance) and the
giver of grace as a result of it (when the person
discerns his mistake and repents, the quality
referenced by Tawwab prevents any possible
negative outcome and reverses these effects,
allowing for new realizations to take place).
10
Chapter 2: Al Baqara
55. And you had said, O Moses, we will never
RRRRRRR
believe you until we see Allah outright; after
which lightening (the knowledge of the reality to RRRRRRR
3
eradicate your existence) had struck you while
you were looking on.
(55)
11
Chapter 2: Al Baqara
61. And recall when you said, O Moses, we can RRRRRRR
not be content with one kind of food. Call upon
RRRRRRR
your Rabb to bring forth for us from the earth its R R RR RR RR R R
green herbs and its cucumbers and its garlic and
its lentils and its onions! Moses asked, Do you
RRRRRRR
want to exchange what is beneficial and R R
superior for what is lesser and worthless? Then
go down to the city and you will find what you RRRRRR
RRRRRR
have asked for. And so they were covered with
RRRRRRR RRRRRRR
humiliation and poverty and were stricken with
wrath (were reduced to a state of existence RR R R 3
RRRRRRRR
based on externality). That was because they
covered and denied the signs (the forces of the
3
Names) of Allah in their essence, and going
(61)
against the reality (giving in to their ego) they
killed the Nabis. As a result of their rebellion,
they transgressed the limits and went too far.
12
Chapter 2: Al Baqara
13
Chapter 2: Al Baqara
74. After this your hearts became hardened RRRRR
again, like stones or even harder (unable to
manifest the reality in your essence). Whereas
there are stones from which rivers burst forth,
and there are some that split open and water
R
gushes out... There are even stones that fall and 3 3
RRRRRRR
roll out in of awe Allah... Verily Allah is never
veiled from what you do (as He forms your
(74)
existence with His Names).
14
Chapter 2: Al Baqara
77. Do they not know that Allah knows what they
RRRRRRR R 3
R
conceal and what they disclose?
(77)
78. There are among them (ummiyyiina) people
RRR
RRR
who have no knowledge of the Book
(knowledge of the reality), other than what they (78)
assume (based on their conditionings); they live
with their (baseless) conjectures.
79. So woe to those who write the knowledge
with their own hands (driven by their illusory
selves), then say, This is from Allah, in RRRRRR 3
exchange for a small price! Woe to what they
write with their hands and woe to what they earn
RRRR
in this way! (79)
15
Chapter 2: Al Baqara
85. Yet you are killing one another and evicting
a group of your people from their homes. You
unjustly unite against them as enemies. And if
RRR
RRR RRR
they come to you as captives, you ransom them
and evict them (although this was forbidden to
RRRRRRR
you). So, do you believe in part of the
knowledge of the reality (Book) and disbelieve
in part? The recompense for those who do so
among you is disgrace in worldly life; and on the
R R R R
Day of Resurrection they will be subject to the
severest of suffering. Allah as your essential 3
reality, is not unaware of what you do.
(85)
86. Those are the ones who have bought the life
RRR
of this world (bodily desires and pleasures) in
exchange for the eternal life to come (the inner (86)
reality). Their suffering will not be lightened, nor
will they be aided!
RR RRRRRRR
87. Indeed, We gave Moses the Knowledge of
the Reality (Book) and then sent a succession of
R RR RR R
Rasuls from among you as reinforcement. And RRRRRRR RRRRRRRR
We gave Jesus, the son of Mary, clear proofs
(states that clearly confirm the knowledge of the
reality). We supported him with the Pure Spirit RRRRRRR
RRRRRRR
(the force We manifested through him). But
every time a Rasul came to you with truths that (87)
went against the desires of your illusory selves,
16
Chapter 2: Al Baqara
17
Chapter 2: Al Baqara
RRR
96. And you will surely find them to be of the
RRR RRR
most ambitious of people about the worldly life!
Even more than those who live in shirq (duality; RRR
RRR
associating partners with Allah). Each one of
them desires to live a thousand years! Whereas 3
a long lifespan will not distance them from
(96)
suffering. And Allah, as their essential reality, is
the Basir (the evaluator of what they do).

besides Allah?
113. The Jews say The Christians have no valid
RRRR RRRR RRRR
grounds and the Christians say, The Jews
have no valid grounds, although they both RRRR
RRRR

supposedly recite the Book (the revealed

Chapter 2: Al Baqara
RRR
RRR
119. Indeed, We disclosed you as the Truth, as
a bringer of good tidings and a fore warner. You
RRR
will not be asked about the attendants of Hell. (119)
120. And never will the Jews or the Christians
approve of you until you follow their
understanding of religion. Say, Indeed, Allah is R 3 RR R
the guide to the realization of your essence (one
cannot be guided unless Allah guides). If you
follow their imaginations or delusions after what (120)
3
has come to you of knowledge, you will have
neither a friend nor a helper from Allah.
23
Chapter 2: Al Baqara
130. And who will turn away from the people of
Abraham (those who believe in the/their reality)
RRRRRRR
except the foolish who are ignorant of the RRRRRRR
RRRRRRRR
qualities of the Names that compose their
essence? Indeed, We have chosen Him in this
(130)
world and purified him. In the eternal life to
come he will be among those that live the results
of having attained their reality.
135. They say, Be Jews or Christians so that you
RRR
will be rightly guided. Say, Rather, we follow
25
Chapter 2: Al Baqara
26
Chapter 2: Al Baqara
RRRRR
143. And thus we have made you a witness over
RRRRR
the people and the Rasul a witness (an observer
of the disclosure of the Names) over you. You
are a just community (based on fairness and
rightness). We changed the qiblah (direction)
R R R R
that you used to face to distinguish those who RRRRRRR
follow the Rasul from those who turn away and
go back. This is very difficult for those other than
3
whom Allah has guided. And never will Allah let
3 RRRRRRR 3
your faith be fruitless. Indeed Allah is the Rauf
and the Rahim, manifesting from the essence of (143)
man.
27
Chapter 2: Al Baqara
145. And if you were to bring all the verses to
those who were given the Book (the knowledge
that guides to the reality), they will still not
follow your qiblah! Nor will you be a follower of
their qiblah. (In fact) they will not follow each
R R RR
others qiblah either. So if you follow their
desires (ideas and wants formed by their
conditionings) after what has come to you of (145)
knowledge, indeed, you would surely be among
the wrongdoers.
RR RR
R
146. Some of those to whom We have given (the
R RR
Book) Knowledge know Him, just as they know
their own sons. But a group of them deliberately R RR
conceal the Truth.
(146)
so that the people will not have any argument RRRRR RRRRR
against you. Though those among you who are
incessant wrongdoers will be against you. So (150)
fear them not, but fear Me so that I may fulfill
My favor upon you, that you may attain the
realization of your innermost essential reality.

157. They are the ones upon whom are blessings
(salawat) from their Rabb (the facilitation
towards the realization of their innermost (157)
essential reality) and grace (the observation of
the beautiful manifestations of the Names). And
it is they who have found the truth.

heavens and the earth (the states of
RRRRRRR
consciousness and the body), the succession of R R RR
night and day (the contrast of observing the
inexistence of the worlds and how it takes on
RRRR
3
forms to appear existent), the ships that sail in
the sea for the benefit of mankind (the
individualized consciousness swimming in the
RRRRRR
RRRRRR
divine ocean of knowledge); how Allah sent
down water from the heavens to bring the earth
RRRRR
RRRRR
back to life after its death (revealing knowledge (164)
from the states of consciousness to manifest
life from the body, which is unconscious of its
reality) and how He disperses therein all animate
beings (how all strength and power within all the
organs in the body are formed with Allah); and
in the directing of the winds (the recognition of
the Names in ones consciousness) and the
clouds that are at disposal between the heaven
and the earth (the initiation of bodily forces
within ones consciousness), there signs for
those who think (for those who use their

173. He has only forbidden to you dead animals,

there is no sin upon you to eat of these without

176. Thus Allah has revealed the knowledge of
reality and the sunnatullah in His knowledge,
which He manifested as multiple universes (176)
(Book), as the Truth. Verily, those who argue
against the Book (in regards to this knowledge
and formation) have fallen far from the truth.
RRRRRRR R
177. Turning (your faces or your consciousness)
to the east or the west (the reality of existence
OR the knowledge of the mechanics of the 3 RRRR
system) does not mean you are experiencing its
reality (albirra). To experience the reality (albirra)
RRRR RRRR
is to believe in Allah in accord with the meaning RRRR RRRR RRRR
of the letter B, and to believe in the life to come,
the angels (the unperceivable forces of the RRRRRR
RRRRRR
RRRRRR
Names of Allah constituting existence), the
RRR
Book (the essence of existence and the
sunnatullah), the Nabis, and who give from their RRRR
RRRR
possessions with the love of Allah to their
relatives, orphans, those in need, travelers who
RRR RRR
are stranded (from their homes), and to free (177)
slaves, and who perform salat (duly turn
introspectively to Allah) and who unrequitedly
share a portion of what Allah has bestowed to
them (zakah), and who stay true to their word,
and who are resistant in the face of calamity,
ailment and violence. Those are the devout and
the protected ones.
178. O believers, retribution (equality based
process) in cases of murder has been
RRR
determined for you: the free for the one with RRR RRR RRR RRR

(the lunar calendar). Say, These (determining
the times of worship via the lunar calendar) are RRRR RRRR
the measurements for the benefit of people and
for Hajj. Experiencing the essence of the reality
RRR
(albirra) is not to enter houses from the back (189) 3
door (the indirect route to the truth), but to
enter from the front door (the direct and short
way), in order to be of the protected ones.
Protect yourselves from Allah so that you may
be enlightened.

RRRRR
200. And when you complete the rites of your

though you despise it. Perhaps you dislike a
thing that is good for you and like a thing that is
bad for you. Allah knows, but you know not.

217. They ask you about fighting in the sacred
RRRRRR
RRRRRR
month (the month in which fighting is
prohibited). Say, Fighting in that month is a 3
RRR RRR
grave matter! But preventing (people) from the
path of Allah, denying ones essence and being R
ungrateful to the al-Masjid al-Haram by RRRR RRRR 3
preventing people from entering therein and
expelling them, is far graver in the sight of Allah! RRR R R R R R R RRRR R RRRRR
Fitnah (provocation) is worse than killing. If RRRRRRR
they could, they would fight you until you
renounce your faith. And whoever among you
turns away from his religious understanding and
dies as a denier of the truth, all his good deeds
R R R RRRRRRR R
will become worthless, both in this world and (217)
the eternal life to come. Those are the
inhabitants of fire (suffering) and will forever
abide therein.

231. And once you divorce your wives and they
reach the end of the three- months waiting
period, either retain them with kindness or RRRRRRRR
release them by good means. Do not keep them
attached to yourselves to cause them misery,
RRRRR RRRRR
and whoever does so will only do wrong to 3 RRRRRRRR
himself. Do not take the creeds of Allah lightly.
And remember the favor of Allah upon you and 3
the Book and Wisdom He revealed to you to
RRRR
3 RRRR RRRR
advise you based on the letter B. Protect
yourself from Allah and know well that Allah, as (231)
3
the essence of everything (in respect of the
dimension of the Names) is aware of everything.
232. When you divorce your wives and they
reach the end of the waiting period, do not
prevent them from getting remarried, if they
RRRRRRRR
agree among themselves on mutual terms. This
is an advice upon those who believe in Allah and
the life to come. This is better (clean from 3
RRRR
humanly conditionings) and purer for you. Allah

the father is responsible for their provision and

Allah is the Sami and the Aleem.

and receive it back in manifold! It is Allah who

constricts (contraction and restriction within the RRRR

RRRR
ego; the Qabid) and grants relief (opens,
expands, spreads with the Names; the Basit)...

To Him you will be returned!
246. Did you not see the group from the
RRRRRRR
Children of Israel after the time of Moses, they
had said to their Nabi, Disclose for us a king RRRR
(leader) and we will fight in the way of Allah.
The Nabi asked, What if war is prescribed for
RRR
3 RRR
you and you refrain from fighting?... They said,
Why shouldnt we fight in the way of Allah?
Especially when we have been driven out of our 3 R
homes and from our children! But when war
3 RR R
was prescribed upon them, except for a few of
them, they turned away from fighting. Allah (as (246)
the One who created them with His Names) is
Aleem (All Knowing) of the wrongdoers.

whoever does not drink from it, is of me, except
those who take but a handful from it... Except

252. These are the signs of Allah... Which we tell
you in Truth... You are indeed one of the
revealed Rasuls. (252)
RRRRRRRR
256. There is no compulsion in (acceptance of)
the religion (the system and order of Allah;

and train them so they grow accustomed to you,
then place each of them upon four different

you make, Allah knows (makes you live their
outcome), but the wrongdoers have no helper. (270)
53
Chapter 2: Al Baqara
273. (Your unrequited giving) is for the needy
3 RRRRRRR
RRRRRRR
who have fully submitted themselves to the way
of Allah without sparing any time to work for RRRRRR
RRRRRR RRRRRR
worldly sustenance. And because they refrain
from asking, one who has no insight into their
RRRRRR
situation would think they are wealthy, but you RRRRRR
will recognize them from their faces. They will
never shamelessly ask for something from

another. Thus, whatever good you give, surely
Allah is Aleem of it.
274. Those who give from their wealth by night
