My sLory began ln Lhe early '90s when l meL a young man who never reglsLered Lo Lhe whole
concepL of Cod and rellglon l was born and ralsed a Musllm my enLlre llfe and always belleved
LhaL Lhe Poly Cur'an was a 8ook senL down from Cod AlmlghLy Lo all of manklnd 8ecause of
my upbrlnglng ln a Musllm envlronmenL l have Lo say LhaL meeLlng someone who dldn'L
belleve ln Cod was a raLher lnLrlgulng albelL awkward experlence! neverLheless we slowly
became good frlends
l dldn'L conslder myself very rellglous and was cerLalnly no preacher! naLurally however our
conversaLlons Lended Lo veer ln Lhe dlrecLlon of Lhe Cur'an's mlracles and Lhe noLlon LhaL Lhls
8ook was Lhe word of Cod as Lhls was a Loplc LhaL boLh of us were eager Lo dlscuss
l would show hlm verses from Lhe Cur'an LhaL had Lruly moved me as l had memorlsed Lhem
malnly because of Lhelr beauLlful meanlng and wonderful eloquence AfLerwards l would ask
hlm wheLher any 'manmade' books were Lhls eloquenL ln speech and conLalned such deep
meanlng
Pls responses were lmmedlaLe as he argued for lnsLance LhaL old Arablc poeLry was of greaLer
eloquence Pe sald LhaL old Lngllsh llLeraLure such as LhaL of Shakespeare was also more
eloquenL And Lo close Lhe curLaln on Lhls sub[ecL of llngulsLlc excellence he recommended LhaL
l'd read Lhe saylngs of some of Lhe greaL lndlan rulers of Lhe pasL because accordlng Lo hlm ln
Lhese words was wlsdom and llLeraLure far greaLer Lhan LhaL of Lhe Cur'an
1o Lhls l had no response Cne Lhlng l knew for cerLaln was LhaL many Arab (and nonArab)
Musllms who have read Lhe Cur'an wlll conflrm LhaL Lhere ls someLhlng Lruly speclal abouL Lhe

were naLlve Arablc speakers nelLher of us was an experL on Lhe language whlch made
convlnclng hlm LhaL Lhe Cur'an was a dlvlne plece of llLeraLure a raLher hopeless Lask!
The Qur'an's miracIes
We had a handful of dlscusslons around Lhe Cur'an's mlracles afLerwards l Lold hlm of Lhe
Cur'an's correcL predlcLlon (al8uum 014) LhaL Lhe 8omans would defeaL Lhe erslans ln Lhe
early 7Lh cenLury shorLly afLer Lhey had been severely defeaLed by Lhe erslans and were

AL Lhe end of lL all however hls answer was one and Lhe same namely LhaL he was nelLher a

My frlend was relenLless he en[oyed Lhe facL LhaL Lhere was noLhlng LhaL lnLeresLed hlm abouL
Lhe Cur'an and challenged me Lo flnd LhaL speclal someLhlng LhaL would klll hls boredom
All l could Lhlnk of now was Lhe language of numbers as l LhoughL of Lhe few numerlc
arrangemenLs l had read abouL ln some books on Lhe numbers of Lhe Cur'an 1hey Lalked abouL
Lhe number 19 and LhaL lL represenLed a Lruly unlque and lnlmlLable mlracle AlLhough whaL l
had read abouL Lhe number 19 was only a small deal lL was cerLalnly very lnLeresLlng so l
declded Lo glve lL a go 8uL could numbers convlnce hlm when Lhe hlsLorlc evenLs sclenLlflc
facLs and perfecL language of Lhe Cur'an could noL?
The number 19 and the Qur'an's first verse
l opened Lhe flrsL page of Lhe Poly Cur'an and showed hlm Lhe very flrsL verse
~ ' . = ' - = '
ln Lhe name of Cod MosL Craclous MosL Merclful
AllaLlhah 11
1hen l explalned Lo hlm 1hls verse carrles an asLonlshlng numerlc facL because when you
counL lLs leLLers [usL as Lhey appear ln Lhe Cur'an you wlll flnd lL conslsLs of exacLly 19 leLLers
ConsequenLly when you look for Lhls verse across Lhe Poly Cur'an you wlll noLlce LhaL lL ls

calculaLor l plugged ln Lhe numbers hlL Lhe equal slgn and showed hlm Lhe resulL
114 = 6 x 19
l Lhen asked Could Lhls connecLlon wlLh Lhe number 19 have been slmply colncldence? Cr dld
someone lnLenLlonally organlse and perfecL Lhese numbers?"
lor Lhe flrsL Llme ln several weeks l sensed slgns of heslLaLlon and surprlse on my frlend's face
perhaps lL was because he saw Lhe resulL wlLh hls own eyes l could noL help buL smlle and
looklng aL my expresslon so dld he Pe Lhen replled 1hls has Lo be a colncldence"
8uL afLer a few momenLs of reflecLlon he Lold me lf you prove Lo me LhaL Lhe entire Poly
Cur'an conLalns a perfecLly deslgned numerlc sysLem Lhen and only Lhen wlll l belleve LhaL lL's

The quest to find a miracIe

sub[ecL unforLunaLely everyLhlng l came across merely hinted Lo some numerlc arrangemenLs
revolvlng around Lhe number 19 and oLher odd and prlme numbers 1hese arrangemenLs
however were very few lacked much conslsLency and cerLalnly were noL sufflclenL enough Lo
persuade my frlend and oLher nonMusllms probably even Musllms Lhemselves!
1hen l began Lhlnklng along Lhe followlng llnes uldn'L Cod AlmlghLy reveal Lhe Cur'an? lf Pe

!ART 1
SOME BASI GUIDELINES
e begin by answering important questions about the Qur'an's numbers, and respond
to some criticism that has targeted this topic.
Among these questions are: hat are the benefits, anyway, of the numeric miracle of
the Qur'an, for both Muslims and non-Muslims? hat is the story of Rashad Khalifa, the
man who claimed both prophethood and the discovery of a mathematical system in the
Qur'an? Does the mathematical technique known as Arabic gematria, or the Abjad
numerals, hold any merit? hat about the various recitations of the Qur'an, and do they
contain a numeric miracle? hat makes the numeric miracle, a miracle?
In this first part of the book, we will establish some important guidelines that must be
followed when extracting numbers from the Holy Qur'an. e will also demonstrate that
we have adhered to these guidelines, and to a sound scientific method that has been
followed throughout this entire book. Finally, we will end with a brief, yet captivating
numeric example from Surat al-Kahf (Chapter: The Cave).

preposlLlons lf Lhey happen Lo be aLLached Lo Lhe word and Lherefore parL of lL Also of course
lf Lhe word lncludes Lhe Lwo leLLers denoLlng Lhe" (namely alif lm) Lhen LhaL word ls also
counLed lor lnsLance Lhe word ( ' ~ ~ ) name" ls repeaLed 22 Llmes ln Lhe Cur'an and ls found
ln four forms )~ ' ( name" ) ~' ( ln Lhe name of" ) ~ ( ln Lhe name of" and )~`' ( Lhe
name"
We musL of course only counL Lhe numbered verses 1he reason Lhls ls menLloned ls LhaL Lhe
8asmala Lhe Cur'an's flrsL verse ls ln facL found 114 Llmes ln Lhe Cur'an buL only on Lwo
occaslons ls Lhe 8asmala numbered namely ln Lhe flrsL verse of Lhe flrsL chapLer SuraL al
laLlhah and Lhe 0Lh verse of SuraL alnaml chapLer 27 1he remalnlng 112 menLlons are
merely slLuaLed before Lhe flrsL verse of every chapLer9 and so carry no number As such Lhey
are noL consldered parL of Lhe Cur'an's verses desplLe belng vlslble Lo any reader who glances
aL Lhe beglnnlngs of Lhe Cur'an's chapLers10
1herefore Lhe Cur'anlc word searches made for Lhe purpose of Lhls book Lake place excluslvely
wlLhln Lhe 2 numbered verses of Lhe Cur'an
The different counting methods
1here ls more Lhan one way Lo counL Lhe leLLers and words of Lhe Cur'an Amazlngly when a
dlfferenL meLhod ls used Lhls does noL acLually desLroy Lhe numerlc arrangemenLs perLalnlng Lo
a parLlcular verse or chapLer lL slmply creaLes new ones! ln oLher words Lhe numerlc mlracle
remalns lnLacL 1hls ls yeL anoLher polnL ln favour of sLudylng Lhe Cur'an's numerlc sysLem
because noL only are numbers ln Lhelr very naLure unblased and lndlspuLable even lf Lwo
people were Lo debaLe LhaL one counLlng meLhod was superlor Lo anoLher Lhey would flnd LhaL
boLh meLhods ln facL produce mlraculous resulLs
Pavlng sald Lhls Lhe Cur'anlc letters can be counLed ln one of Lwo ways
1 Accordlng Lo how Lhey are written (whlch ls used ln Lhls book)
9 AparL from chapLer 9 SuraL al1aubah
10 We wlll neverLheless wlLness laLer on ln Lhe book a prollflc numerlc arrangemenL relaLed Lo Lhe
repeLlLlon of Lhe 114 8asmalas across Lhe Cur'an

2 Accordlng Lo how Lhey are pronounced (whlch ls sLlll belng explored)
1he same ls Lrue for Lhe Cur'anlc words slmply because Lhey are composed of leLLers buL one
more crlLlcal polnL also makes a dlfference Lo how Lhe words are counLed
1 Conslderlng Lhe leLLer ww ( ) whenever lL means and" or ls used for oaLh an
lndependenL word (whlch ls how lL ls counLed ln Lhls book)
2 Conslderlng Lhe leLLer ww )( parL of Lhe word whlch follows lL (whlch ls grammaLlcally
correcL and also ylelds mlraculous resulLs 1hls way of counLlng wlll be explored ln oLher sLudles
of Lhe Cur'an's numbers)
As for Lhe repeLlLlon of a parLlcular word across Lhe Cur'an Lhls Loo can be done ln one of Lwo
ways
1 CounLlng Lhe rooL word on lLs own (whlch ls followed ln Lhls book)
2 CounLlng Lhe rooL word along wlLh any of lLs derlvaLlves (eg lf Lhe word we were looklng for
was )~ ' ( name" we would also look for words llke )~ ~' ( hls name"
)-' ~~ ( names" )+ - '~ ~ ( Lhelr names" eLc)
All of Lhe above counLlng Lechnlques are correcL and produce asLoundlng resulLs buL for Lhe
sake of belng meLhodlcal and conslsLenL LhroughouL our sLudy we have chosen and commlLLed
Lo a speclflc approach for counLlng Lhe Cur'an's leLLers words and word repeLlLlons ln order Lo
leave no room for colncldence ln our flnal resulLs
The basis for arranging the Qur'anic numbers
We wlll encounLer a very large amounL of numerlc arrangemenLs exLracLed from Lhe Poly
Cur'an Some of Lhese arrangemenLs represenL connecLlng Lwo or more numbers LogeLher Lo
creaLe new numbers whlch are also mulLlples of 7
1haL ls when we are faced wlLh a collecLlon of numbers such as Lhe chapLer number verse
number word counL and leLLer counL of a parLlcular verse we follow a speclflc Lechnlque for
comblnlng Lhem
1hls Lechnlque ls Lo arrange Lhe numbers lnLo a slngle number ln Lhe followlng loglcal order
1 ChapLer number
2 verse number

we wlll follow Lhe exacL order by whlch Lhe Cur'an's 114 chapLers and 2 verses are
organlsed because we belleve LhaL Lhls has been decreed from Cod AlmlghLy and Lherefore

The Qur'anic and mathematicaI basis for arranging the Qur'an's numbers
Many researchers lnLo Lhe Cur'anlc numbers have aLLempLed Lo exLracL a numerlc mlracle from
Lhe Cur'an and mosL of Lhese sLudles have concenLraLed on adding leLLers and words
LogeLher
8uL maLhemaLlcs has revealed LhaL more complex meLhods can be employed such as poslLlonal
noLaLlon whlch we have used exLenslvely Lo reveal a new dynamlc and capLlvaLlng mlracle of
numbers
1he maLhemaLlcal Lechnlque known as poslLlonal or placevalue noLaLlon has proven lLs
effecLlveness and brllllance across Lhe enLlre Cur'an 1he magnlflcence of Lhls concepL lles ln lLs
slmpllclLy eople from all walks of llfe and areas of knowledge use lL every day ?eL because lL
has no llmlLs masslvely large numbers are ofLen achleved whlch only adds Lo Lhe awelnsplrlng
feellng one recelves when such numbers Lurns ouL Lo be perfecL declmalfree mulLlples of 7 or
even mulLlples of 7 Lwlce Lhree Llmes or more
1o explaln Lhls concepL we sLarL by saylng LhaL every number ls composed of digits and every
dlglL ln LhaL number possesses a place value (ones Lens hundreds Lhousands eLc) Also
every place value ls Len Llmes greaLer Lhan Lhe one precedlng lL 1he orlgln of Lhls sysLem can ln
facL be Laken from Lhe Cur'an lLself where Cod AlmlghLy speaks of Lhe rewards of Lhose who
perform good deeds and speclflcally menLlons Lhe number 10
Pe LhaL doeLh good shall have ten times as much Lo hls credlL
AlAn'am 10
We can undersLand Lhls sysLem by wrlLlng a chaln of numbers based upon Lhe number 10
1 - 10 - 100 - 1000 - 10000 - 100000 - .......
Lvery number ln Lhe chaln ls Len Llmes greaLer Lhan Lhe number before lL 1o glve a more
pracLlcal example we know LhaL Lhe number of verses ln Lhe Cur'an ls 2 Lach of Lhls
number's four dlglL has a place value

Lhousands hundreds Lens ones
1hls can be represenLed ln numerlcal form

1000 x 100 x 2 10 x 1 x
1he sum of Lhls chaln ls of course Lhe orlglnal number
6000 + 200 + 30 + 6 = 6236
1hroughouL Lhls book we wlll wlLness how Lhls meLhod marvellously conveys lLself across Lhe
leLLers words verses and chapLers of Lhe Cur'an Cne facL whlch can be concluded aL Lhls polnL
ls LhaL Lhe exlsLence of Lhls maLhemaLlcal dlsclpllne ln Lhe pages of Lhe Cur'an more Lhan 14
cenLurles ago ls buL evldence LhaL Lhls 8ook had already revealed one of Lhe essenLlal
foundaLlons of maLhemaLlcs well before lL came Lo be known by maLhemaLlclans!
8uL one may well ask a crlLlcal quesLlon why do we arrange numbers lnsLead of slmply addlng
Lhem?
1he slmple answer ls LhaL whlle addlng preserves Lhe LoLal sum of parLlcular leLLers words
verses and chapLers lL does noL preserve Lhelr exacL deLalls whlch ls whaL ls requlred Lo
lllusLraLe [usL how mlraculous Lhe Cur'an ls
AlLhough we wlll come across cerLaln arrangemenLs LhaL do produce mulLlples of 7 when
added ln LruLh anyone can creaLe a supposed verse" add lLs words LogeLher Lo creaLe a
mulLlple of 7 and clalm dlvlnlLy 1hls ls no mlracle however
1he Lrue mlracle ls ln placlng each word ln lLs intended locaLlon lnslde any parLlcular verse
asslgnlng a number Lo each word and creaLlng an arrangemenL based on such baslc albelL
asLoundlng loglc Arranglng numbers ln Lhls manner preserves Lhe locaLlon of each word wlLhln
a verse ln oLher words lf Lhe order of any word had shlfLed Lhe resulLlng number would
auLomaLlcally change and no longer become a mulLlple of 7
Cod AlmlghLy has organlsed Lhe words of Pls 8ook ln a speclflc order whlch cannoL and musL
noL be edlLed 1herefore we oughL Lo sLudy Lhe numbers LhaL acLually represenL Lhese words ln
a manner whlch safeguards Lhelr exacL order lnslde a verse !usL as every word ln Lhe Cur'an
has a speclflc place so should every number
1he advanLages LhaL arranglng numbers has over addlng Lhem are plenLy Cne beneflL ls LhaL
when we arrange Lhe leLLer counL of each word ln a verse for lnsLance we are securely
fasLenlng Lhe poslLlon of each word ln LhaL verse buL Lhls proLecLlon lnsLanLly dlsappears when
we merely add Lhe leLLers of every word LogeLher
lurLhermore when we arrange Lhe leLLer counL of each word of a verse lnLo a slngle number
we can clearly see Lhe componenLs of each word ln LhaL number whereas Lhese can no longer
be dlsLlngulshed lf merely Lhe sum ls found

ln addlLlon one polnL we hlghllghLed earller ls LhaL arranglng numbers causes Lhem Lo
poLenLlally become Lruly masslve 1hls creaLes a wonderful elemenL of suspense because one
wlll wonder boLh how blg Lhe number mlghL geL and wheLher lL wlll remaln a mulLlple of 7 Cf
course as a number geLs larger Lhe probablllLy of lL belng a mulLlple of 7 geLs smaller
lor example Lhe Cur'an's openlng chapLer SuraL allaLlhah conslsLs of 1 words lf we were Lo
creaLe an arrangemenL based on Lhe leLLer counL of each of lLs words we would arrlve aL a 1
dlglL number (whlch by Lhe way ls a mulLlple of 7!) 1hroughouL Lhls book we wlll encounLer
numbers LhaL are much larger Lhan Lhls even more Lhan 100 dlglLs11 long and see wheLher Lhey
perfecLly dlvlde by 7 lL ls Lhrough such examples LhaL we appreclaLe Lhe Lruly lnlmlLable naLure
of Lhe Cur'an's numerlc arrangemenLs
uurlng Lhe Llme of Lhe ropheL Muhammad (pbuh) numbers were of course used yeL Lhls
Lechnlque of arranglng numbers dld noL exlsL 1herefore Lhe only explanaLlon for Lhe exlsLence
of such a sysLem would have Lo be LhaL Lhe Cur'an ls a dlvlne revelaLlon WhaL ls Lruly

Lhe Cur'an and made sure LhaL Lhey were all mulLlples of 7 ls very dlfflculL Lo faLhom 1he more

In this part, we explore some of the mysteries of the number 7 in both the Holy Qur'an
and the Sunnah (i.e. Teachings) of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), and understand
why and how God Almighty has given this number such high regard.
e will reflect upon some of the wonders of this number in Allah's Book, and witness
how the Qur'an's letters, words, Verses and Chapters come into perfect synchronisation
with this number in ways that challenge imagination.
e will also reflect upon certain specific Qur'anic words and Verses on their own, and
discover relationships and consistencies that are always in harmony with the number 7.

The First and Last Mention of 7 in the Qur'an: Symmetry Unmatched
A number of profound numerlcal conslsLencles are found beLween Lhe flrsL and lasL menLlon of

1he number 7 ls flrsL clLed when Cod AlmlghLy declares

Al8aqarah 229
1he lasL Llme Lhe number ls menLloned ls ln Lhe followlng verse
And (have We noL) bullL over you Lhe seven flrmamenLs
Alnaba' 712
now we observe Lhe followlng facLs LhaL demonsLraLe a mysLerlous accuracy beLween Lhe
above Lwo verses
Fact 1
1he number of ChapLers from SuraL Al8aqarah where 7 ls flrsL clLed Lo SuraL Alnaba' where lL
ls lasL clLed ls 77 ChapLers a mulLlple of 7
77 = 11 x 7
So havlng [usL conflrmed LhaL Lhe number of ChapLers ln beLween Lhe flrsL and lasL clLaLlon of 7
divides by 7 we Lackle more senslLlve grounds by asklng WhaL abouL Lhe number of Verses?
Fact 2
lf we counL Lhe number of verses from Lhe verse where 7 ls flrsL menLloned (29Lh verse of
SuraL Al8aqarah) unLll Lhe lasL verse where 7 ls menLloned (12Lh verse of SuraL Alnaba') we
flnd Lhe number of Verses Lo be preclsely 49 And Lhls ls a perfecL mulLlple of 7
5649 = 807 x 7
So far we have dlscovered LhaL both Lhe number of ChapLers and verses beLween Lhe flrsL and
lasL repeLlLlon of Lhe number 7 are exacL mulLlples of 7 8uL Lhere's more Lo come
Fact 3
1he number of verses from Lhe very beglnnlng of SuraL Al8aqarah (1he ChapLer where 7 ls flrsL
menLloned) unLll Lhe very end of SuraL Alnaba' (1he ChapLer where 7 ls lasL menLloned) ls 70
a mulLlple of 7
5705 = 815 x 7
So noL only are Lhe numbers of ChapLers and verses Lurnlng ouL Lo be mulLlples of 7 buL don'L
forgeL LhaL Lhe number 7 ls Lhe very sub[ecL of our dlscusslon because we are looklng aL where
Lhls number ls used ln Lhe Cur'an!

Fact 4
1he number of verses from Lhe beglnnlng of SuraL Al8aqarah up Lo Lhe verse whlch precedes
Lhe one menLlonlng Lhe number 7 ln LhaL very ChapLer ls 2 a mulLlple of 7 2 4 x 7 1hls
makes perfecL sense of course because Lhe verse whlch menLlons 7 ls Lhe 29Lh verse of SuraL
Al8aqarah meanlng LhaL 2 verse precede lL
ln oLher words when we counL Lhe number of verses from Lhe flrsL verse Lo Lhe verse LhaL
comes dlrecLly before Cod's saylng
It is He ho hath created for you all things that are on earth; Moreover His design
comprehended the heavens, for He gave order and perfection to the seven firmaments;
and of all things He hath perfect knowledge.
Al8aqarah 229
we flnd LhaL Lhere are exacLly 2 verses 1haL ls regardlng Lhe flrsL Llme 7 ls menLloned ln Lhe
Poly Cur'an
Whlch begs Lhe quesLlon WhaL abouL Lhe lasL Llme Lhls number ls ever menLloned ln Lhe
Cur'an? ls Lhere any slmllar arrangemenL Lhere?
1he answer ls yes ln facL Lhe correspondlng arrangemenL ls so beauLlful LhaL lL lnvolves Lhe
same number 2 lf we counL Lhe number of verses from Lhe verse comlng dlrecLly after Lhe
12Lh verse of SuraL Alnaba' (where 7 ls lasL clLed) unLll Lhe very end of SuraL Alnaba' we flnd
LhaL Lhere are preclsely 2 verses!
1haL ls noL all however now we ask WhaL abouL Lhe number of verses from Lhe very
beglnnlng of Lhe Cur'an Lo Lhe very end of SuraL Alnaba' Lhe ChapLer whlch lasL menLlons Lhe
number 7?
Fact 5
CounLlng Lhe number of verses from Lhe flrsL verse ln Lhe Poly Cur'an Lo Lhe lasL verse ln SuraL
Alnaba we flnd LhaL Lhere are 712 verses a number whlch perfecLly dlvldes by 7
5712 = 816 x 7
Fact 6
llnally lL ls lnLeresLlng Lo noLe LhaL ln Lhe Arablc language Lhe number 7 ln word form (le
seven) can be wrlLLen ln several dlfferenL ways dependlng on Lhe conLexL of a glven passage

1haL belng sald when Lhe number ls flrsL found ln Lhe Cur'an ln SuraL Al8aqarah lL ls wrlLLen
as ( ~ ) wlLh Lhree leLLers (, ~ _ ) When lL ls lasL clLed however lL ls wrlLLen as
( ~ ,' ) wlLh four leLLers( , ~ _ ,' )
1herefore Lhe LoLal number of leLLers maklng up Lhe flrsL and lasL menLlons of 'seven' ln Lhe
Cur'an ls 7!
lL ls necessary Lo ask Lhe followlng quesLlon Could Lhese conslsLencles have been slmply bllnd
colncldence? 1hls ls a [udgmenL LhaL we do noL make lL ls up Lo each lndlvldual reader Lo
declde for Lhelr own We slmply sLaLe whaL we personally belleve and Lry Lo supporL our vlews
wlLh evldence LhaL addresses human lnLellecL
So far, we've witnessed precision that extends as far as individual words examined on
their own, so just what could be found if all the words of the Qur'an were similarly
analysed? Scientific reasoning suggests that such numerical coincidence can only exist
in a book when the author actually makes the effort of arranging his words in a specific
manner.
And we belleve LhaL Lhe arrangemenLs LhaL are found ln Lhe Cur'an whlch relaLe Lo Lhe number

AL Lhls polnL and from Lhls polnL onwards lL ls cruclal Lo noLe Lhe followlng
e follow one fixed mathematical method of arranging numbers, according to their
logical sequence in the Holy Qur'an. In other words, the Arabic language, the language
of the
1
Qur'an, is communicated from right to left, unlike English, for instance, which reads from
left to right. This means that one begins reading the Chapters of the Qur'an from the
right to the left. In accordance with this rule, we arrange the numbers from right to left,
exactly as they appear in the Qur'an.
Unique Numbers in the Qur'an
1here are a few unlque numbers LhaL dlsLlngulsh Lhe Poly Cur'an from any oLher LexL Among

!ART 3
THE NUMERI MIRALE OF THE FIRST VERSE IN THE QUR'AN: THE
"BASMALA"
In this part, we experience a divine miracle in four words: the verse most recited in the
life of every Muslim. Before eating, drinking, and reciting the Qur'an; before any activity
for that matter, Muslims recite this verse as an introduction to their daily lives.
It is the first verse of the Qur'an, commonly known as the "Basmala":
~ ' = ' - = '
AllaLlhah 11
&sing the unequivocal language of numbers, we will witness how every single letter in
this verse carries with it a divine miracle, proving that such a verse could not have been
the work of man.
e finally ask: Besides the Qur'an, does any book carry so many hidden numeric
accuracies within its words? Can anyone realistically respond to the challenge of the
Qur'an and produce a book, even a chapter, like it?

!ART 4
THE NUMERI MIRALE OF THE FIRST HA!TER IN THE QUR'AN:
"AL-FATIHAH" THE O!ENING
After exploring the vast numeric miracles of the Basmala verse, which is found, among
other chapters, in Surat Al-Fatihah, we now take on board this very chapter in its
entirety, in an attempt to unlock the breathtaking numeric secrets it possesses.
"Al-Fatihah" means The pening, and most fittingly, it is the opening chapter of the Holy
Qur'an, and a chapter like no other, as the Prophet (pbuh) himself swore that God
Almighty did not reveal any chapter which resembles Al-Fatihah in any Holy Scripture,
be it the ld Testament, the New Testament, or the Holy Qur'an itself.
Having said this, we now embark on a magnificent journey with this captivating, albeit
very short, chapter, but using one of the languages of our 21st century: the simple
language of numbers. The numeric patterns we are about to witness will not fail to
fascinate, and remind us of the unintelligible wonders of this profound book that is the
Holy Qur'an. This system of numeric perfection is but a concrete declaration that no
other than God Almighty could have designed such a book and revealed its message to
humanity.

The Greatness of AI-Fatihah

explalned LhaL Lhls chapLer was Alhamdullllahl 8abbllAlamln (le SuraL AllaLlhah) whlch ls
Lhe seven ofLrepeaLed verses (AlMaLhanl) and Lhe Crand Cur'an whlch has been glven Lo
me"49 lL ls consldered Lhe moLher of Lhe 8ook and on one occaslon when Cod AlmlghLy speaks
of Lhls ChapLer ln Lhe Poly Cur'an he menLlons Lhls chapLer before menLlonlng Lhe Cur'an
lLself And We have besLowed upon Lhee Lhe Seven CfLrepeaLed (verses) (le SuraL Al
laLlhah) and Lhe Crand Curan AlPl[r 17
ln addlLlon AllaLlhah ls Lhe only chapLer whlch feaLures ln all flve of Lhe dally prayers of
Musllms lL ls Lhe flrsL of Lhe Cur'an's 114 chapLers and Cod has chosen for lL Lo conslsL of

And now we may ask Lhls quesLlon uoes Lhls chapLer carry wlLh lL an lnherenL mlracle LhaL ls

A GLIM!SE AT SURAT AL-IKHLAS HA!TER: SINERITY: A
HA!TER EQUALLING ONE THIRD OF THE QUR'AN
After witnessing something of the numeric secrets of Al-Fatihah, the Qur'an's greatest
chapter, we arrive at a chapter which equals a third of the Qur'an in reward. In this small
chapter is a statement of God Almighty's supremacy and uniqueness.
e embark on a journey which involves God's Beautiful Names and how they are
reflected in this chapter, and admire how every letter in this wonderful chapter is crafted
with such careful precision so as to produce a miracle not in meaning or language
alone, but a numeric miracle that is founded on the number 7, bearing witness to the
Greatness of its Creator.
A Third of the Qur'an
1he ropheL Muhammad (pbuh) was slLLlng wlLh hls companlons one day when he asked Lhem
wheLher anyone of Lhem was capable of readlng a Lhlrd of Lhe Cur'an ln one nlghL When Lhey

namely Pe ls Allah Lhe Cne" (le SuraL Allkhlas) lndeed Lhe ropheL once explalned 8y Plm
ln Whose Pand my llfe ls lL ls equal Lo oneLhlrd of Lhe Curan"
And we ask whaL are Lhe secreLs of Lhls splendld chapLer? And can Lhe language of numbers
reveal a new mlracle LhaL can prove lLs mlraculous naLure? We begln our [ourney wlLh SuraL Al

And here we stop and ask: can a human being of even the highest calibre of linguistic
excellence create a literary passage in which he describes himself using various names,
whilst maintaining that the letters of these many names spread out across his passage,
only for a different multiple of 7 to present itself each time? Besides the fact that authors
never write with such a plan in mind anyway and that the Prophet Muhammad (peace
be upon him) was a man who could never read or write, designing such a complicated
piece of literature is literally impossible.
And now we analyse Lwo more names of Cod whlch have also been menLloned alongslde each

!ART 6
IN EVERY VERSE, AND EVERY WORD, LIES A MIRALE
In this part, we discover new truths into the numeric system underlying the Holy
Qur'an's magnificent letters. e will yet again prove, through the language of numbers,
that every verse carries with it an astounding numeric miracle that deserves pondering
and reflection.
e will select different verses from across the Holy Qur'an in an attempt to show, by
way of example, that God Almighty has deposited in each of His verses a number (or
more!) that is a multiple of 7: a tangible indication that no human can replicate a verse,
(even a word, as we will show!) similar to any in the Qur'an.
Indeed, one of the sheer wonders of this Book is that we find a miracle in each verse,
and often in segments of verses, even in mere words, and that is what we will attempt to
illustrate in the pages to follow.

"And We WiII AssuredIy Guard It...": A !Iedge to !rotect the Qur'an

!ART 7
A QUR'ANI MIRALE IN 3 LETTERS
Among the real mysteries of the Holy Qur'an are those seemingly random letters found
at the forefront of about one quarter of the chapters of the Qur'an. That being said, has
the age arrived where we finally discover at least some of the secrets behind these
'special' letters? Can the language of numbers reveal some of their marvels?
Although scholars have never been able to fully explain the meaning behind these
letters, most have appropriately given their opinion on the matter by saying, "God knows
best!". Indeed, they did not discourage reflecting upon these letters and researching
them. And as such, we have undertaken a detailed study into the arrangement and
repetition of these mystifying letters, only to discover that underlying them is a most
profound miracle of numbers.
In this part is an abundance of numeric illustrations depicting the relationship of these
letters with the number 7, which is the basis of the these letters' numeric system and the
foundation of the numeric miracle in general. This part is also a response to any claims
that the Holy Qur'an contains meaningless letters, because the numeric system behind
the special letters is clear evidence of their inimitability, in today's age of numbers and
information.

Accordlng Lo slmple probablllLy Lheory lf we were Lo exLracL a number from a llLerary passage
whlch happens Lo be a mulLlple of 7 Lhen Lhe probablllLy of colncldence would have Lo be 1/7

The numeric miracIe: unbiased fact

When lL comes Lo Lhe numerlc mlracle however lL magnlflcence lles ln LhaL Lhere ls no debaLe

flxed number LhaL can never change and so ls Lhe number of verses Also for lnsLance Lhe
number of words and leLLers found ln Lhe Cur'an's openlng chapLer ls known and so are all Lhe
Cur'anlc numbers 1hese facLs have never been alLered slnce Lhe Cur'an was senL down 14
cenLurles ago and never wlll Lhey be alLered elLher As a resulL Lhe clear unblased naLure of

Lhe Poly Cur'an was revealed ln a perlod of Llme well before any sophlsLlcaLed sLudy of

Colncldence cerLalnly may occur once Lwlce or even several Llmes buL nelLher does lL occur
always or conLlnuously 1hankfully we have been able Lo wrlLe an enLlre book abouL Lhe
numerlc sysLem behlnd Lhe leLLers words verses and chapLers of Lhe Cur'an
Pavlng sald LhaL we ask Lhls can we auLhor even a small book abouL a numerlc sysLem found ln

Lhls book possess Lhe same klnd of flawless language eloquence and dlsLlncLlveness en[oyed by
