Few years ago, I had the opportunity to visit the Kauba Mosque (an Umra). As it was a golden opportunity, I tried hard to prepare my self spiritually.
While the date of departure closing, one day I prayed/ wished to the Lord of the Creation (around me) to show me a sign to follow. On the first glance, I spotted a number printed in black on a white pickup lorry reading: 19.
A second time, while on a journey from Mecca to Medina, we came down from a bus for prayer/ salat. While walking away from the bus an inspiration overtook me ‘look at the bus number’. I stopped & glanced back to read: 19, printed in Gold!
Due to an unavoidable circumstance I had to leave from Saudi Arabia prior to the set date. So one day after I’m back in my country, I wondered ‘I did pray direct to God to show me a sign, but I haven’t been given a sign’! Instantly an inspiration came: ‘the numbers on the vehicles?’ Then I thought. Okay IF the number of days I was able to stay in Saudi Arabia happens to be exactly 19, THEN THAT NUMBER MUST SURELY BE THE ANSWER TO MY PRAYER! If so, I would be obliged to FOLLOW.
I counted … Oh my God!
I now have encountered 19, on 3 different occasions. I tried hard to convince myself that it’s just nothing. Have no meaning. However, I gave the benefit of the doubt. And it paid off well.
During my quest for “the meaning of 19 & 3” I came across a blog on which the author describes “I am in search of the Siraat-e- Mustaqueem (The straight path). I have travelled the world looking for it. He who holds the map of the path I realized is “closer to me than my jugular vein”… “I am (http://asqfish.wordpress.com/about/) the mother of one of those three,” … “nineteen year old, handsome, bright, intelligent and good muslim boys”…
I still wondered what correlation is between 19 and 3. Is it 19 times 3, which is equal to 57? Could 19 and 3 be the map of the path or a way to find the map?
[The above was written about a year ago but due to unavoidable circumstances I couldn’t continue this piece of writing.
Well, today I have a good reason to continue because I believe the author (that had inspired me to ponder more into the true meaning of the sign that God inspired me – 19, on 3 different occasions) had reached to the “KEY of the map”.]
(Today: 21 Jan 2011)
My quest to find the map awakened me to connecting dots.
Along my journey I had reached to ‘the first dot’ a moment earlier and had followed the ‘dots’ to reach to a point where I’m now. BTW, there was always a choice that if I should ‘move forward’ or ‘sit idle ’. I suppose I moved forward (maybe at tortoise speed but forward).
I would consider the dot - ‘THE CREATOR’S SIGNATURE’ (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5584275782001385561#) or ‘The ‘Al-Qur’an the Ultimate Miracle’ (http://creatorsignature.com/alquran.htm) or ‘Witness a miracle’ (http://www.mathmiracle.com/) or ‘Miracle 19’ (http://www.quranmiracles.com/19/) - to be as the ‘KEY DOT’, the “KEY of the map”.
One of the most important dot is that “… the Prophet (Muhammad) married an intellectually and physically mature lady Ayesha.” “… she was 19 …”! (http://iopot.blogspot.com/2009/08/she-was-19.html). This dot could be considered as one of the important reason for the number of Angels guarding the Hell to be 19. (Please refer Qur’an 74, Verses 27 – 30.)
What I learnt so far is that each & every one-of-us/ ‘Children’s of Adam’ requires to connect dots individually for viewing The Map. ‘We actually are Spiritual beings on a Human journey (not the other way)’.
‘The complete map' I consider it to be as ‘the Qur’an’ that is preserved in the Tablet - al-lawh al-mahfuz. I consider it would encompass the ‘Complete knowledge’ which God taught OUR hereditary father - Adam. (Please refer Qur’an 85: 21 – 22). We should acknowledge that God taught our hereditary father Adam (PBUH) all the knowledge. (Please refer Qur’an 2:31)
We are supposed to contact direct to our Creator IF we desire glancing the map! God is very closer to ‘those who believe’. Guess how close? (Please refer Qur’an 8:24)
Perception of The Map, may defer for each of us /Children of Adam because individually we cannot view the full Map. However we must be sure if we are viewing the correct Map. There are certain dots that have to be found if we wish to view the correct Map.
One of the last dot that I discovered is ‘the realization of the combination of the three Verses of Qur’an’.
The 3 Verses of the 19 encoded scripture!
In conclusion:
On my quest to connect the dots, what matters to me now is … that …
Eternity has already begun! (http://www.harunyahya.com/eternity01.php)
After life there is more! What dreams may come?
May I be among the victors? (Please refer Qur’an 41:30)
Peace to All.
