In the Name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful
The Qur'aan says in Verse 6:159, 'Those indeed who
have broken the unity of their Faith, and have become sects, you have nothing
to do with them ...'.
From the above, the divine dislike
of dividing Islam into sects is obvious! But what is noteworthy is the
arithmetical or numerical code used here to give expression to the divine
concept of the indivisibility of Islam.
The believers are addressed as يا أيها الذين آمنوا (O you who believe)
throughout the Qur'aan for being given necessary instructions on leading a
proper life on this earth. And they are so addressed, in all, 89 times therein.
89 is an indivisible prime number!
So, you see, the divine concept of
the indivisible Islam is codified here by addressing the believers for a prime
number of times - a feat that could only be divine, and not man-made - in the
circumstances in which the Qur'aan was revealed, nearly 1500 years ago!
And the Qur'aan is replete with such
numerical codes leaving no scope for any doubts about its divinity!!
