Submitters

Submitters are followers of the Egyptian-American biochemist Rashad Khalifa (d. 1990) who established United Submitters International (USI) in Tucson, Arizona. The Submitters reject hadith and believe in the "Qur'an alone" plus the specific mathematical code (19), which Khalifa popularised, whom they consider a "Messenger of the Covenant". The Submitters do not consider themselves to be Qur'anists, as the two are fundamentally different in their core beliefs, specifically regarding the status of Khalifa and the understanding of certain practices.[1][2] Qur'anists have accused Khalifa of "extremism in lying and extremism in disbelief".[3]

Masjid Tucson was a private house at Tucson, Arizona, which Khalifa rented out from a private owner to enable the Friday gatherings of Submitters back in the 1980s. People would gather there every Friday to listen to Khalifa's sermons in the 1980s. After Khalifa, it was abandoned, and now is simply a private home and the Submitters do not gather to pray there anymore. Today, the Submitters are thinly spread throughout the world and gather mainly online.[5]

The USI founded by Khalifa has published a monthly newsletter with the title "Submitter's Perspective" since 1985.[6] Among those influenced by Khalifa's ideas include Edip Yüksel,[7] Ahmad Rashad,[8] and Nigerian High Court Judge, Isa Othman.[9]
