Hadith and Sunna are the necessary test separating true Muslims, who accept no source but the Quran, from false Muslims who are attracted to them.1, 2

Verse 74:31 gives five purposes for the number 19, including convincing Jews and Christians, strengthening believers, and exposing hypocrites and disbelievers who stay indifferent despite the evidence.1, 2, 3, 4
Even the phrase There is no god except He, the First Pillar, conforms to the code only when the false verse 9:129 is excluded, because God rejects what hypocrites utter even if it is the truth.1, 2
God deliberately permitted the addition of two verses to Sura 9 to show the code's function, prove tampering is impossible, and distinguish believers from hypocrites, who uphold traditions.1, 2, 3
Hypocrites went astray after having been on the path, so they have no excuse and are placed in the lowest part of Hell.1, 2, 3, 4
In the Fatehah, those whom God blessed are the righteous, those who deserve wrath are the disbelievers, and those who went astray are the hypocrites, matching the opening verses of Sura 2.1, 2, 3, 4
Hypocrites sit with the believers and claim belief, so they receive the light of the Quran, moving forward when they follow it and standing still when they ignore it.1, 2, 3
A hypocrite claims to be a believer while not believing, and usually does not know that he or she is not a believer, whereas a disbeliever openly says he does not believe.1, 2, 3
Dr. Khalifa found through his own experiments that a person claiming belief could not say the testimony with God alone, showing he was not a believer.1, 2, 3
God gives criteria in the Quran, such as 39:45, to tell whether one is a believer: hypocrites dislike it when God alone is mentioned and are pleased when Muhammad is mentioned with Him.1, 2, 3
Khomeini is an example of a hypocrite: he believes he is a believer and leads the Islamic Revolution in the name of Islam, but does not act according to God's law.1, 2, 3, 4
Nobody thinks he or she is going to hell, yet the Quran tells us that the majority of people are going to hell.1
The Quran devotes many more verses to hypocrites than to disbelievers because hypocrites are more damaging, and it places them in the lowest pit of hell.1, 2
Because God calls the hypocrites liars even when they say something true, believers must reject all hadith attributed to the Prophet, even true ones, which are Satan's bait.1, 2, 3
God accepts prayers for forgiveness for the believers but not for the hypocrites, who will not be forgiven whether forgiveness is asked for them or not.1, 2, 3
Hypocrites and disbelievers stay outside God's circle as long as they remain so, but as soon as they decide to believe they step into God's kingdom.1, 2, 3
Striving sternly against the disbelievers and hypocrites is for their own good, like grabbing someone by the clothes to stop him from falling into a ditch.1, 2, 3
A hypocrite claims to be a believer while not believing in the heart, and one Quranic criterion in 39:45 is disliking God alone mentioned while liking others mentioned with Him.1, 2, 3, 4
There are only two kinds of people, those in God's kingdom and those in Satan's kingdom; disbelievers and hypocrites both belong to Satan's kingdom.1, 2, 3, 4
Hypocrite men and women belong with each other, advocate evil, prohibit righteousness, and are stingy, and they are truly wicked.1, 2, 3
Hypocrites sit among the believers and look and act like believers, so believers must be careful what they listen to, and this is a test for all.1, 2, 3, 4
The spending of those who disbelieve is not accepted, especially when they observe the contact prayers lazily and give charity grudgingly.1, 2
Quran 39:45 is the great criterion: when God alone is mentioned the hearts of disbelievers in the Hereafter shrink, and when others are mentioned they rejoice.1, 2, 3, 4
A person who appears righteous and carries the Quran yet says it is not complete is the worst danger, worse than an open disbeliever.1, 2, 3
Hypocrites and disbelievers give up the right to be forgiven, and God does not forgive or guide the wicked whether or not forgiveness is asked for them.1, 2, 3
God distinguishes those who support Him and His messengers even in privacy; true believers profess belief in the messenger outside the group, not only where everyone agrees.1, 2, 3, 4
The story of the Israelites asking for a king shows that people may say things without meaning them, since most turned away when fighting was decreed.1, 2
Hypocrites are not attracted to a community during persecution and difficult times, but they would show up if the community offered worldly rewards.1, 2, 3
The command in 33:1 to reverence God and not obey disbelievers and hypocrites is addressed to Muhammad but applies to all of us in everything we do and say.1, 2, 3
Saying what you do not do is most abominable to God, so whoever asks others to do the five prayers must be doing them himself.1, 2
Enemies infiltrate the believers' communities, but believers should not become paranoid or hunt for them, and should hope they change their hearts.1, 2, 3
Hypocrites in the Prophet's time pretended to be the most enthusiastic Muslims and then quietly withdrew in order to break the community.1, 2, 3
There are only two kinds of people, those in God's kingdom and those in Satan's kingdom, with disbelievers and hypocrites both falling under disbelievers.1, 2, 3
Hypocrites look and act like believers, sit with us, and spread doubt, so they are more dangerous; God reserves the lowest pit of Hell for them, and we must be careful what we listen to.1, 2, 3, 4
His religion prohibits alcohol, so working in a brewery would have been hypocritical for him unless the work had nothing to do with alcohol.1, 2, 3
Praying to show off, or skipping prayer out of embarrassment before friends, cheats oneself like living only on food with no calories.1, 2, 3, 4
On the Day of Judgment hypocrites who were with the believers but doubted will be separated from them by a barrier, so mere presence does not guarantee success, since God wants solid believers.1, 2, 3, 4
People who say we believe must be tested so that the truthful are distinguished from the liars.1, 2, 3
God guides sincere Muslims to the perfect Quran, while insincere people are left with a fake Quran; a sincere believer has a perfect Quran.1, 2, 3
Quran 74:31 gives five reasons for the number 19, including disturbing the disbelievers and exposing the hypocrites and disbelievers who will dismiss it as unimportant.1, 2, 3
Throughout the Quran only the hypocrites declare that Muhammad is God's messenger; believers know it and do not need to say it.1, 2, 3
The 19 based code serves to expose hypocrites and disbelievers, and God misleads or guides whomever He wills.1
