Appendix 1
One
of the Great Miracles [74:35]
The Quran is characterized by a unique
phenomenon never found
in any human authored
book. Every element
of the Quran is mathematically composed—the suras, the verses,
the
words,
the
number
of
certain letters, the number of
words
from
the
same
root,
the
number
and
variety
of
divine
names, the unique spelling of certain words, the absence or deliberate alteration of certain letters within certain words, and many other elements of the Quran besides its content. There
are two major
facets of the Quran’s mathematical system:
(1) The mathematical literary
composition, and (2)
The mathematical structure involving the numbers of suras and verses. Because of this comprehensive
mathematical
coding,
the
slightest
distortion
of
the
Quran’s text or physical arrangement is immediately exposed. |
Simple to Understand
Impossible to Imitate
For the first time in history we have a scripture with built-in proof of divine authorship—a superhuman mathematical composition.
Any reader of this book can easily verify the Quran’s mathematical miracle. The word “God” (Allah) is written in bold capital
letters throughout the text. The frequency of occurrence of the word “God” is noted at the bottom of each page.
The last page of the text, Page 372, shows that the total occurrence of the word “God” is 2698, or 19x142.
Furthermore, when we add the numbers of all
the
verses
where
the
word
“God” occurs, we obtain
a
total
of
118123, also a multiple of 19 (118123 = 19x6217). Nineteen is the common
denominator throughout the Quran’s mathematical system.
This phenomenon alone suffices as incontrovertible proof that the Quran is God’s message
to the world. No human
being(s) could have kept track
of 2698 occurrences of the word “God,” and the numbers of verses where they occur. This
is especially impossible in view of (1) the age of ignorance during which the Quran
was revealed, and (2) the fact that the suras and verses were widely separated in time and place of revelation. The chronological order of revelation
was vastly different
from the final format (Appendix
23). However, the Quran’s mathematical system is not limited
to the word “God;” it is extremely
vast, extremely intricate, and totally comprehensive.
The Simple Facts
Like the Quran itself, the Quran’s mathematical coding ranges from the very simple, to the very complex. The Simple facts are those observations that can be ascertained without using any tools. The complex facts require the assistance of a
calculator or a computer. The following
facts do not require any tools to be verified:
1.
The first
verse (1:1), known
as “Basmalah,” consists of . . . .19 letters. |
2.
The Quran
consists of 114 suras,
which is .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . .19x6. |
3.
The total
number of verses
in the Quran
is 6346, or .
. . . . . . .19x334. |
[6234 numbered verses & 112 un-numbered verses |
(Basmalahs) 6234+112 = 6346]
Note that 6+3+4+6=
. . . . . .19 |
4.
The Basmalah occurs 114 times, despite
its conspicuous |
absence from Sura 9 (it occurs
twice in Sura 27) &
114= . . .19x6. |
5.
From the missing Basmalah of Sura 9 to the extra |
Basmalah of Sura 27, there
are precisely .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .19 suras. |
6.
It follows
that the total
of the sura numbers |
from 9 to 27 (9+10+11+12+...+26+27) is 342, or .
. . . . . . . . .19x18. |
7.
This total
(342) also equals
the number of words |
between the two Basmalahs of Sura 27, and 342 = . . . . . . . .19x18. |
8.
The famous
first revelation (96:1-5) consists of .
. . . . . . . . . .19 words. |
9.
This 19-worded first revelation consists of 76 letters . . . . . . .19x4. |
10.
Sura 96, first in the chronological sequence, consists of
. . . .19 verses. |
11.
This first
chronological sura is placed atop the last . . . . . . . .19 suras. |
12.
Sura 96 consists of 304 Arabic
letters, and 304 equals . . . . . .19x16. |
13.
The last revelation (Sura
110) consists of .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .19 words. |
14.
The first
verse of the last revelation (110:1) consists of . . . . . 19 letters. |
15.
14 different Arabic
letters, form 14 different
sets of |
“Quranic Initials” (such as A.L.M.
of 2:1), and prefix |
29 suras.
These numbers add up to 14+14+29=57=
.
. . . . . . .19x3. |
16.
The total
of the 29 sura numbers
where the Quranic |
Initials occur
is 2+3+7+...+50+68 = 822, and |
822+14 (14 sets of initials) equals
836, or . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .19x44. |
17.
Between the first initialed sura (Sura 2) and the last |
initialed sura (Sura 68) there are 38 un-initialed suras . . . . . .19x2. |
18.
Between the first and last initialed sura there are . . . . . . . . . .19 sets |
of alternating “initialed” and “uninitialed” suras. |
19.
The Quran
mentions 30 different numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, |
7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 19, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 99, 100, |
200, 300, 1000, 2000,
3000, 5000, 50,000,
& 100,000. The |
sum of these numbers
is 162146, which
equals. . . . . . . . . . . .19x8534. This is a condensed summary of the Simple Facts. |
The Literary Mathematical Composition
The Quran is characterized by a
unique phenomenon never found
in
any other book; 29 suras
are prefixed with 14
different sets of “Quranic
Initials,” consisting of one to five letters per set. Fourteen letters, half the Arabic alphabet, participate in these
initials. The significance of the
Quranic initials remained a divinely guarded secret
for 14 centuries. The Quran
states
in
10:20
and
25:4-6 that its miracle, i.e.,
proof of divine authorship,
was
destined
to
remain secret for a specific predetermined interim: They said, “Why hasn’t a miracle come down to him from his Lord?” Say, “Only God knows the future. Therefore, wait, and I will wait along with you.” [10:20] ***** Those who disbelieved
said, “This is no
more than a
fabrication by him, with
the help of
other people.” Indeed, they
uttered a blasphemy;
a falsehood. Others said,
“Tales from the past
that he wrote
down; they were dictated to him
day and night.” Say, “This was
sent down from
the One who knows
‘the secret’ in
the heavens and the earth.” Surely, He is Forgiving, Most Merciful. [25:4-6] The Quranic
Initials constitute a major portion
of the Quran’s 19-based mathematical miracle. |
|
Historical Background
In 1968, I realized that the existing
English translations of the Quran did not present the truthful message of God’s Final Testament. For example, the two most popular translators, Yusuf Ali and Marmaduke Pickthall, could not overcome
their corrupted religious traditions
when it came to the Quran’s great criterion
in 39:45.
When God ALONE is mentioned, the hearts of those
who do not believe in the Hereafter
shrink with aversion. But when others are mentioned besides Him, they rejoice. [39:45] |
Yusuf Ali omitted the crucial word “ALONE” from his translation, and altered the rest of the verse by inserting the word (gods).
Thus, he utterly
destroyed this most important
Quranic criterion. He translated 39:45 as follows:
When God, the One and Only, is mentioned, the hearts of those who believe not in the Hereafter are filled
with disgust and horror; but when (gods) other
than He are mentioned, behold, they are filled with joy. [39:45]
(according to A. Yusuf Ali) |
The expression “When
God, the One and Only, is mentioned,”
is not the same as saying, “When God alone is mentioned.” One can mention “God, the One and Only,” and also mention
Muhammad or Jesus, and no one will be upset. But if “God
ALONE is mentioned,” you cannot mention anyone else, and a lot of people—those who idolize Muhammad
or Jesus—will be upset. Thus, Yusuf Ali could not bring himself
to
present
the
truth
of
the
Quran,
if
it
exposed
his
corrupted
belief.
Marmaduke Pickthall
translated “ALONE” correctly, but destroyed the criterion by inserting his personal belief in parentheses; he translated 39:45 as follows:
And when Allah alone is mentioned, the hearts of those who believe not in the Hereafter are repelled, and when those
(whom they worship) beside Him are mentioned, behold! they are glad. [39:45]
(according to Marmaduke Pickthal) |
When I saw the truth of God’s word thus distorted, I decided to translate the Quran,
at least for the benefit of my own children.
Since I was a chemist by profession,
and
despite
my
extensive religious background—my father
was
a renowned Sufi leader in Egypt—I vowed to God that I would not move from one
verse to the next unless I fully understood it.
I purchased all the
available
books
of
Quranic
translations
and
exegeses
(Tafseer) I could find, placed them on a large table, and began my translation. The first sura, The
Key, was completed in a few
days.
The
first
verse
in
Sura
2
is
“A.L.M.” The translation of this
verse
took
four
years,
and
coincided
with
the
divine unveiling of “the secret,”
the great mathematical Miracle of the Quran.
The books of Quranic exegeses unanimously agreed that “no one knows the
meaning or significance of the
Quranic
Initials A.L.M., or any other initials.” I decided to write the Quran into the computer, analyze the whole text, and see if there
were any mathematical correlations among these Quranic initials.
I used a time-share terminal,
connected by telephone
to a giant computer. To test
my hypothesis, I decided to look at the single-lettered Quranic Initials—“Q”
(Qaaf) of Suras 42 and 50, “S” (Saad) of Suras 7, 19, and 38, and “N” (Noon) of
Sura 68.
As detailed in my first
book
MIRACLE
OF
THE
QURAN:
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE MYSTERIOUS ALPHABETS (Islamic Productions, 1973), many previous attempts
to unravel the mystery had failed.
The Quranic Initial “Q” (Qaaf)
The computer data showed that the text of the only Q-initialed suras, 42 and 50,
contained the same number of Q’s, 57 and 57. That was the first hint that a deliberate mathematical system may exist in the Quran.
Sura 50 is entitled “Q,” prefixed with “Q,” and the first verse reads, “Q, and the
glorious Quran.” This indicated that “Q” stands
for “Quran,” and the total
number of Q’s in the two Q-initialed suras represents the Quran’s 114 suras (57+57 =
114 = 19x6). This
idea was strengthened by the fact that “the Quran” occurs in the
Quran 57 times.
The Quran
is
described
in
Sura
“Q”
as
“Majid”
(glorious),
and
the Arabic word “Majid” has a gematrical value of 57: M (40)+J (3)+I (10)+D (4) = 57.
Sura 42 consists of 53 verses,
and 42+53 = 95 = 19x5.
Sura 50 consists of 45 verses,
and 50+45 = 95, same total as in Sura 42.
By counting
the letter “Q” in every
“Verse 19” throughout the Quran, the total
count comes to 76, 19x4. Here is a summary
of the Q-related data:
1. The frequency of occurrence of “Q” in Sura “Q” (No. 50) is 57, 19x3. |
2. The letter “Q” occurs in the other
Q-initialed sura (No. 42) exactly
the same number
of times, 57. |
3. The total occurrence of the letter “Q” in the two Q-initialed suras is 114, which equals the number of suras in the Quran. |
4. “The Quran” is mentioned in the Quran
57 times. |
5. The
description
of
the
Quran
as
“Majid”
(Glorious)
is
correlated
with
the
frequency
of
occurrence of the letter “Q” in each of the Q-initialed suras.
The word “Majid”
has a gematrical value of 57. |
6. Sura 42 consists
of 53 verses, and 42+53
is 95, or 19x5. |
7. Sura 50 consists
of 45 verses, and 50+45
is also 95, 19x5. |
8. The number of Q’s in all verses numbered “19” throughout the Quran is 76, 19x4. |
Glimpses of the Quran’s mathematical composition began
to
emerge. For example, it was observed that the people who disbelieved in Lot are mentioned in 50:13
and occur in the Quran
13 times—7:80; 11:70, 74, 89; 21:74;
22:43; 26:160; 27:54, 56;
29:28;
38:13;
50:13;
and
54:33.
Consistently, they are referred to as
“Qawm,” with the single
exception
of
the
Q-initialed
Sura
50
where
they
are
referred to as “Ikhwaan.” Obviously, if the regular, Q-containing word “Qawm”
were used, the count of the letter “Q” in Sura 50 would have become 58, and this whole
phenomenon would have disappeared. With the recognized absolute accuracy of mathematics, the alteration of a single letter destroys
the system.
Another relevant example is the reference to Mecca in 3:96 as “Becca!” This strange spelling of the renowned city has puzzled Islamic scholars for many centuries. Although
Mecca is mentioned in the Quran properly spelled in 48:24, the
letter “M” is substituted with a “B” in 3:96. It turns out that Sura 3 is an M-initialed sura, and the count of the letter “M” would have deviated from the Quran’s code if “Mecca”
was spelled correctly
in 3:96.
NuN (Noon)
This initial is unique; it occurs in one sura, 68, and the name of the letter is spelled out as three
letters—Noon Wow Noon—in the original text,
and is therefore counted as two N’s. The total count of this letter in the N-initialed sura is 133, 19x7.
The fact that “N” is the last Quranic
Initial (see Table 1) brings out a number of
special observations. For example, the number of verses from the first Quranic
Initial (A.L.M.
of 2:1) to the last initial (N. of 68:1) is 5263, or 19x277.
The word “God” (Allah) occurs 2641 (19x139) times between the first initial
and the last initial. Since the total occurrence of the word “God” is 2698, it follows
that its occurrence outside the initials “A.L.M.”
of 2:1 on one side, and the initial
“N” of 68:1 on the other side, is 57, 19x3. Tables 9 to 20 prove that the initial “NuN” must be spelled
out to show two N’s.
S (Saad) This initial
prefixes three suras,
7, 19, and 38,
and the total occurrence of the letter
“S” (Saad) in these three suras is 152, 19x8 (Table
2). It is noteworthy that in 7:69,
the word “Bastatan” is written in some printings with a “Saad,”
instead of “Seen.” This is an erroneous
distortion
that
violates
the
Quran’s code. By
looking
at
the
oldest
available
copy of the Quran, the Tashkent Copy, it was found that the word “Bastatan” is correctly written with a “Seen”
(see photocopy below). |
|
Historical Note
The momentous discovery that
“19”
is
the
Quran’s common denominator became a reality in January 1974,
coinciding with Zul-Hijjah 1393 A.H. The Quran
was revealed in 13 B.H. (Before Hijrah).
This makes the number of years from the
revelation of the Quran to the revelation
of its miracle 1393 + 13 = 1406 = 19x74.
As noted above, the unveiling
of the Miracle took place in January 1974. The correlation between
19x74 lunar years and 1974 solar years could not escape notice. This is especially uncanny
in view of the fact that “19” is mentioned
in Sura 74.
Y. S. (Ya Seen)
These two letters prefix Sura 36. The letter “Y” occurs in this sura 237 times, while the letter “S” (Seen) occurs 48 times.
The total of both letters
is 285, 19x15.
It is noteworthy that
the letter “Y” is written in the Quran in two forms; one is obvious and the other is subtle. The subtle form of the letter may be confusing to those
who are not thoroughly familiar
with the Arabic
language. A good example
is the word “Araany
” which is mentioned
twice in 12:36.
The letter “Y” is used twice in this word, the first “Y” is subtle and the second is obvious. Sura 36
does not contain
a single “Y” of the subtle type. This is a remarkable phenomenon, and one that does not normally
occur in a long sura like Sura 36. In my book QURAN:
VISUAL
PRESENTATION
OF
THE
MIRACLE
(Islamic
Productions,
1982) every “Y” and “S” in Sura 36 is marked
with a star.
H.M. (Ha Mim) Seven suras
are
prefixed
with
the
letters
“H
” and “M
;” Suras 40 through 46. The total
occurrence of these
two letters in the
seven H.M.-initialed suras
is 2147, or 19x113. The
detailed data are shown in Table
3. Naturally, the alteration of a single
letter “H” or “M” in any of the seven H.M.-initialed suras would
have destroyed this intricate phenomenon. ‘A.S.Q. (‘Ayn Seen Qaf) These initials constitute Verse 2 of Sura 42, and the total occurrence of these
letters in this sura is 209, or 19x11. The letter
“ ‘A” (‘Ayn) occurs
98 times, the
letter “S” (Seen)
occurs 54 times,
and the letter
“Q” (Qaf) occurs
57 times. |
|
A.L.M. (Alef Laam Mim)
The letters “A,” “L,”
and
“M”
are
the
most
frequently
used
letters
in
the
Arabic language, and in the same order
as we see in the Quranic Initials—“A,” then “L,”
then “M.” These
letters prefix six suras—2,
3, 29, 30, 31, and 32—and
the total occurrence of the three letters in each
of the six suras is a multiple of 19 [9899 (19x521),
5662 (19x298), 1672
(19x88), 1254
(19x66), 817 (19x43),
and 570
(19x30), respectively]. Thus, the
total occurrence of the three
letters in the six suras is 19874
(19x1046), and the alteration of one
of these letters
destroys this phenomenon. A.L.R. (Alef Laam Ra) These initials
are
found
in
Suras 10, 11, 12, 14, and 15. The total occurrences of these letters
in these suras are 2489 (19x131), 2489 (19x131), 2375 (19x125), 1197 (19x63), and 912 (19x48), respectively (Table 5). |
|
A.L.M.R. (Alef Laam Mim Ra)
These initials prefix one sura, No. 13, and the total frequency
of occurrence of the four letters is 1482, or 19x78. The letter “A” occurs 605 times, “L”
occurs 480 times, “M” occurs 260 times, and “R” occurs 137 times.
A.L.M.S. (Alef Laam Mim Saad)
Only one sura is prefixed with these initials,
Sura 7, and the letter “A” occurs in
this sura 2529 times, “L” occurs 1530 times, “M” occurs 1164 times, and “S” (Saad)
occurs 97 times.
Thus, the total occurrence of the four letters in this sura is
2529+1530+1164+97 = 5320 = 19x280.
An important
observation here is the interlocking relationship involving the letter “S” (Saad). This letter occurs
also in Suras
19 and 38. While complementing
its sister
letters in Sura 7 to give a total that is divisible by 19, the frequency of this
letter also complements its sister letters in Suras 19 and 38 to give a multiple
of 19 (see Page 380).
Additionally, the Quranic Initial “S” (Saad) interacts with the Quranic Initials
“K.H.Y. ‘A.” (Kaaf Ha Ya ‘Ayn) in Sura 19 to give another
total that is also a multiple of 19 (see Page 383). This interlocking relationship—which is not unique to the initial “S” (Saad)—contributes to the intricacy
of the Quran’s numerical
code.
K.H.Y.‘A.S. (Kaaf Ha Ya ‘Ayn Saad)
This is the longest set of initials, consisting of five letters, and it
occurs in one sura, Sura 19. The letter “K” in Sura 19 occurs 137 times, “H” occurs 175 times,
“Y” occurs 343 times, “ ‘A” occurs
117 times, and “S” (Saad) occurs
26 times. Thus, the
total
occurrence
of
the
five
letters
is
137+175+343+117+26 = 798 =19x42.
H., T.H. (Ta Ha), T.S. (Ta Seen),
& T.S.M. (Ta Seen Mim)
An intricate interlocking relationship links these overlapping Quranic Initials to produce
a total that is also a multiple of 19. The initial “H.” is found
in Suras 19 and
20. The initials “T.H.” prefix
Sura 20. The
initials “T.S.”
are found in Sura 27, while the initials “T.S.M.” prefix
its surrounding Suras
26 & 28. It should be noted
at
this
time
that
the
longer, more complex, interlocking and overlapping initials are found in the suras
where uncommonly powerful miracles
are narrated. For example,
the virgin birth of Jesus is given
in Sura 19, which is prefixed with the longest set of initials, K.H.Y.‘A.S. The interlocking initials “H.,”
“T.H.,”
“T.S.,” and “T.S.M.” prefix suras describing
the miracles of Moses, Jesus, and the uncommon
occurrences
surrounding
Solomon
and
his jinns. God thus provides stronger evidence
to support stronger miracles. The frequencies
of occurrence of these initials are presented in Table
6. |
|
What Is A “Gematrical Value”?
When the Quran was
revealed, 14 centuries ago, the numbers known today did not
exist. A universal system was used
where the letters of the Arabic, Hebrew, Aramaic,
and Greek alphabets
were used
as numerals. The number assigned to each letter is
its
“Gematrical Value.” The numerical values of
the Arabic alphabet are shown in Table 7. |
|
Other Mathematical Properties of the Initialed Suras Fourteen Arabic letters, half the Arabic alphabet, participate in the formation of 14
different sets of Quranic
Initials. By adding the gematrical value
of
each
one
of
these
letters, plus the number of suras which are
prefixed with Quranic Initials (29), we
obtain a total
of 722, or 19x19x2. Additionally, if we add the total
gematrical value of all 14 initials, plus the number
of the first sura where the initial
occurs, we get a grand total
of 988, 19x52.
Table 8 presents these data. If we add the number of occurrences of each
of the 14 letters listed in Table 8 as an initial, plus the numbers
of the suras
where it occurs as an initial, the Grand Total comes to 2033, 19x107. See Table
9. |

Table 10
presents
the
total
frequency of each set of Quranic
Initials, plus the total
gematrical
value of these letters in the whole sura. The Grand Total for
all initialed suras
is 1089479. This
number, in excess of one million,
is a multiple of
19
(1089479
=
19
x
57341). The slightest alteration or distortion destroys the system. Note: The total gematrical value of the Quranic Initials in a given
sura equals the gematrical value of each initial multiplied by the frequency of occurrence of that initial
in the sura. |

Major Parameters
of the Quranic Initials
(Suras, Verses,
Frequency, First Sura, & Last Sura)
Table 11 shows
that the sum of numbers
of suras and verses where
the Quranic Initials are found, plus the initial’s frequency
of occurrence in that sura, plus the number
of the first sura where the initials
occur, plus the number of the last sura where the initials occur, produces
a total that equals 44232, or 19x2348.
Thus, the distribution of the Quranic
Initials in the initialed suras is so intricate that their
counts and their placement within suras are intertwined to give a grand total that is a multiple of 19.
It is noteworthy that the initial “N” must be counted as two N’s. This reflects
the fact that the original
Quranic text spells out this initial with 2 N’s.

Grand Total = 43423+295+514 = 44232 = 19x2328. |
A special mathematical coding authenticates the number of verses where the
Quranic Initials themselves are found. As detailed in Table 11, all Quranic
Initials occur in Verse 1, except in Sura 42 (initials in Verses
1 and 2). This fact is supported by the remarkable mathematical phenomenon detailed
in Table 12.
If we multiply the first two columns
of Table 12, instead of adding, we still end up
with a Total that is divisible by 19 (see Table 13).
Obviously, it is
crucial to
have two
different initialed
verses in
Sura 42
in order
to conform with the Quran’s mathematical code. The fact that Verse 1 of Sura 42 consists
of
the
two
Quranic
Initials
“H.M.” and the second verse consists
of
the three Initials “ ‘A.S.Q.” has perplexed Muslim
scholars
and
orientalists
for
14
centuries. By the end
of this Appendix, the reader will see that every element
of the Quran is mathematically authenticated. The elements
we
are
dealing
with
now
are
“the
number of Quranic Initials in
each
initialed sura”
and “the number
of verses that contain Quranic Initials.” Tables
11 through 13 have dealt
with these two elements. |
|
Additional mathematical authentication is shown in Tables 14 and 15. In Table 14,
we have the numbers of all initialed suras added to the number
of verses in each
sura, plus the number of verses containing initials, plus the gematrical values of
those initials. The Grand Total is 7030, or 19x370.

Remarkably, if we multiply
the
first
two
columns
of
Table 14, instead of adding them, we still get a Grand Total that is divisible
by 19 (Table 15).
The number of verses per sura, and the numbers
assigned to each verse are among the basic elements of the Quran. Not only are these elements authenticated
mathematically, but both initialed
and un-initialed suras are independently coded. Since we are now dealing
with the initialed
suras, Table 16 presents
the numbers assigned to these suras, added to the numbers
of verses in each sura, plus the sum
of verse numbers (1+2+3+ ... + n). The Grand total is 190133, or 19x10007.

By adding the number of every sura to the number of the next sura, and accumulating the sums of sura numbers as we continue this process to the end of the Quran, we will have a value that corresponds to each sura. Thus, Sura 1 will have a corresponding value of 1, Sura 2 will have a value of 1+2=3, Sura 3 will have a value of 3+3=6, Sura 4 will have a value of 6+4 =10, and so on to the end of the Quran. The total values for the initialed and the un-initialed suras are independently divisible by 19. The values for the initialed suras are shown in Table 17.
The values
calculated for the un-initialed
suras add up to a total of 237785, which
is also a multiple of 19 (237785
= 19x12515). Mathematical Coding of Special Words The Word “God” (Allah) [1]
As
shown
earlier
the
word
“God”
occurs in the Quran 2698 times, 19x142. [2] The
numbers
of
verses
where
the
word “God” occurs add up to 118123, also a
multiple of 19 (118123
= 19x6217). These simple
phenomena gave us many
difficulties while simply counting the word “God.”
We
were
a
group
of
workers,
equipped with computers, and all of us college
graduates. Yet,
we made several
errors in counting,
calculating,
or
simply
writing
the counts
of
the
word
“God.”
Those
who
still claim that Muhammad was the author
of the Quran are totally illogical; he never went to
college, and he did not have a computer. [3] From the first Quranic Initials (A.L.M. 2:1) to the last initial (N. 68:1), there are 2641, 19x139, occurrences of the word “God.”
[4] The word “God”
occurs 57 times
in the section outside
the Initials (Table 18). [5] By adding
the numbers of the suras and verses where these
57 occurrences of the
word “God” are
found, we get
a total of 2432, or 19x128. See Table
18. [6] The word “God” occurs in 85 suras. If we add the number of each sura to the number of verses between the first and last occurrences of the word “God,” both verses inclusive, the Grand Total comes to 8170 or 19 x 430. An abbreviated representation of the data is shown in Table 19.

[7]
The Quran’s dominant message is that there
is only “One God.” The word “One,” in Arabic “Wahed” occurs in the Quran 25 times.
Six of these occurrences refer to other than God
(one kind
of food, one door, etc.). The other 19 occurrences refer
to God.
These data are found in the
classic reference INDEX
TO THE WORDS OF QURAN. |
WHY 19!
As pointed out later in this Appendix,
all God’s scriptures, not only the Quran,
were mathematically coded with the number “19.” Even the universe at large bears
this divine mark. The number 19 can be looked upon as the Almighty
Creator’s signature on everything He created (see Appendix 38). The number “19” possesses unique mathematical properties beyond the scope of this Appendix. For example:
[1] It is a prime
number. [2] It encompasses the first numeral
(1) and the last numeral
(9), as if to proclaim
God’s attribute in 57:3 as the “Alpha and the Omega.” [3] It looks
the same in all languages of the world.
Both components, 1 and 9, are
the only numerals that look the same in all languages. [4] It possesses many peculiar mathematical properties. For example, 19 is the sum of the first powers of 9 and
10, and the difference between the
second powers of 9 and 10. We now
understand that the
universal coding of God’s creations with
the number 19 rests in the fact that it is the gematrical value
of the word “ONE” in all the scriptural languages—Aramaic, Hebrew, and Arabic. The number 19, therefore,
proclaims
the First Commandment in
all
the
scriptures: that there is only ONE God. As shown in
Table
7, the
Aramaic, Hebrew, and Arabic
alphabets used to double as numerals in accordance with a universally established system.
The
Hebrew
word for “ONE” is “VAHD” (pronounced V-AHAD). In
Arabic, the word for “ONE”
is “WAHD” (pronounced WAAHED). See Table 20. |
|
The Word “Quran”
|
The word “Quran” occurs in the Quran 58 times, with one of them, in 10:15, referring to “another Quran.” This particular occurrence, therefore, must be excluded. Thus, the frequency of occurrence of “this Quran” in the Quran is 57, or 19x3. Two
other
grammatical
forms of
the
word
“Quran” occur
in
12
verses.
These
include the word “Quranun” and
the
word
“Quranahu.”
One of these occurrences, in 13:31
refers
to
“another
Quran” that cause
the mountains
to
crumble.
Another occurrence,
in
41:44,
refers
to
“a
non-Arabic
Quran.”
These two occurrences,
therefore, are excluded. Table 21 shows a list of the suras
and
verses
where
the
word
“Quran,”
in
all
its
grammatical forms, occurs. |
A STRONG FOUNDATION
The Quran’s first verse,
“In the Name of God, Most
Gracious, Most Merciful,”
known as Basmalah, consists
of 19 Arabic letters. Its constituent
words
occur
in
the
Quran consistently in multiples of 19.
The first word . . . . . . . . “Ism” (Name) . . . . . . . . . . . . occurs
. . . . . . .19 times. |
The second word . . . . . “Allah” (God) . . . . . . . . . . . occurs
. . . . . . . . 2698 times
(19x142). |
The third word . .
. . . . . “Al-Rahman” (Most
Gracious) . . . . . . . . . . . . 57 times, 19x3. |
The fourth word . .
. . . . “Al-Raheem” (Most
Merciful) .
. . . . . . . . . . . 114 times, 19x6. |
Professor Cesar Majul looked at the gematrical value of more than 400 attributes of God, and found only four names whose gematrical
values are multiples
of 19:
Divine Name Gematrical Value |
|
1. “Waahed” (One) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ….19 |
2. “Zul Fadl Al-`Azim” (Possessor of Infinite Grace) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2698 |
3. “Majid” (Glorious) . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
…..57 |
4. “Jaami`” (Summoner) .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . …114 |
As noted above, the
only Divine Names whose gematrical values are divisible by 19 correspond exactly to the frequencies of occurrence of the Basmalah’s four words. The figure below illustrates this remarkable phenomenon:
The Five Pillars of Islam
Although the Quran provides
numerous important commandments governing all aspects of our lives (see for example 17:22-38),
five basic “pillars”
have been traditionally emphasized. They are:
1. Shahaadah: Bearing witness
that there is no other god besides
God.
2. Salat: Observing five daily Contact
Prayers.
3. Seyaam: Fasting during the ninth month of the Islamic
calendar (Ramadan).
4. Zakat: Giving away 2.5% of one’s net income as a charity to specified people.
5. Hajj: Pilgrimage to Mecca once in a lifetime for those who can afford it. Like
everything else in the Quran, these are mathematically structured.
1. One God (Shahaadah) As mentioned earlier, the word “ONE” that refers to God occurs in the Quran 19
times. The reference to God “ALONE” occurs 5 times, and the sum of the sura and verse numbers where we find these
five occurrences is 361, 19x19. The “First Pillar of Islam” is stated in 3:18 as
“LAA ELAAHA ELLA HOO”
(There is no other god
besides Him). This most important expression
occurs in
19 suras. The first occurrence is in 2:163,
and the last occurrence is
in
73:9.
Table 22 shows that the total
of sura numbers, plus the number of verses
between
the
first
and last occurrences, plus the sum of these
verse numbers
is 316502, or 19x16658. Also, by adding the numbers of the 19 suras where LAA ELAAHA ELLA HOO
occurs, plus the
verse numbers where
this crucial expression is found, plus the total number of occurrences (29), the Grand Total comes to 2128, or 19x112. The details are shown in Table
23. 2. The Contact Prayers “Salat” The word “Salat” occurs in the Quran
67 times, and when we add the numbers
of suras and verses of these 67 occurrences, the
total comes to 4674, or 19x246
(see INDEX OF THE QURAN) 3. Fasting (Seyaam) The commandment to
fast is mentioned in 2:183, 184, 185, 187, 196;
4:92; 5:89, 95; 33:35, 35; & 58:4. The total of these numbers
is 1387, or
19x73. It is noteworthy that 33:35 mentions fasting
twice, one for the believing men, and the other for the believing women. |
|
4. The Obligatory Charity (Zakat) & 5. Hajj Pilgrimage to Mecca
While the first
three “Pillars of Islam” are obligatory upon all Muslim
men and women, the Zakat and
Hajj are decreed
only for those who can afford them. This explains the interesting mathematical phenomenon associated with Zakat and
Hajj.
The Zakat charity is mentioned in 2:43, 83, 110, 177, 277; 4:77, 162; 5:12, 55; 7:156; 9:5, 11, 18, 71; 18:81; 19:13, 31, 55; 21:73; 22:41, 78; 23:4; 24:37, 56; 27:3; 30:39; 31:4; 33:33; 41:7; 58:13; 73:20; and 98:5. These numbers
add up to 2395. This total does not quite make it as a multiple
of 19; it is up by 1.
The Hajj Pilgrimage occurs in 2:189, 196, 197; 9:3; and 22:27. These numbers
add up to 645, and this total does not quite make it as a multiple of 19; it is down
by 1.
Thus, Zakat
and Hajj, together, give a total of 2395+645
= 3040 = 19x160.
THE QURAN’S MATHEMATICAL STRUCTURE The Quran’s suras, verses,
words, and letters are
not
only
mathematically
composed, but also arranged into a superhuman structure that is purely
mathematical, i.e., the literary content has nothing
to do with such an arrangement. Since the physical construction of the Quran is purely mathematical, it would be expected
that the
numbers mentioned
in the Quran must conform with the Quran’s
19-based code. A total of 30 unique
numbers are mentioned throughout the Quran, and the sum of
all these numbers
is 162146, a multiple
of 19 (162146 = 19x8534). Table 24 lists
all the numbers mentioned in
the
Quran,
without the repetitions. The numbers which
are mentioned only once in the Quran
are: 11, 19, 20, 50, 60, 80,
99, 300, 2000,
3000, 5000, 50000,
and 100000. All the numbers
mentioned in the
Quran, with repetitions, occur
285
times,
and this number is a multiple of 19; 285 =
19x15. |
|
The Numbers of Suras and Verses The numbering system
of the Quran’s suras
and verses has
been perfectly preserved. Only a few unauthorized and easily detectable printings deviate from the
standard system that is divinely guarded. When we add the numbers of all
suras, plus the number of verses in every
sura, plus the sum of verse numbers, the Grand total for
the whole Quran
comes to 346199,
19x19x959. Table
25 is an abbreviated
presentation
of
these
data.
Thus, the slightest alteration of a single sura or verse would
have destroyed this system. As shown in Table 16, if we consider only
the
29
initialed
suras,
these
same data produce a Grand
Total which is also a multiple of 19. It follows that the
data for the un-initialed suras are
also
divisible by 19. Table
26 is an abbreviated presentation of the same data related to the 85 un-initialed suras. |
|
Superhuman Numerical
Combinations
Let us write down the number of each verse
in the Quran,
preceded for each sura by the number of verses in that
sura. Thus,
Sura
1,
which
consists
of
seven verses, will be represented by the number 7 1234567.
What we are doing here is forming long numbers by writing the numbers of verses next to each other. To find the number representing Sura 2, you write down the number of verses in
this sura, 286, followed by the number of every verse, written next to each other.
Thus, the number representing Sura 2 will look like this: 286 12345.....284285286.
The two numbers representing the first two suras are:
7 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 & 286 1 2 3 4 5.....284
285 286.
Putting these two numbers together to form one number representing the first two suras, we get this number:
7 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 286 1 2 3 4 5.....284
285 286.
This process is continued until every verse in the Quran is written down, thus
forming one very long number encompassing the
number
of
every
verse
in
the
Quran. The number representing the whole Quran is a multiple of 19 & consists
of 12692 digits, which is also a multiple of 19.
7 1234567
286 12345...286...5 12345
6 123456 |
FIRST No: This very long
number
consists
of
12692
digits
(19x668)
and
includes every verse
in the Quran.
The number of verses in each sura precedes its verses. A special
computer program
that
divides
very
long
numbers
has
shown that this long number
is a multiple of 19. |
Instead of putting the total number of verses in every sura ahead of the sura, let
us put it at the end of every sura. Thus, the number representing Sura 1 will look
like this: 1234567 7, instead of 7 1234567. The number representing Sura 2 will look
like this: 12345.....284 285 286 286 instead of 286 12345.....284285286. The numbers representing the first two suras will look like this:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
7 & 1 2 3 4 5.....284
285 286 286.
Putting these two numbers
together to form a longer number representing the first two suras, we get a number that looks like this:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
7 1 2 3 4 5.....284 285 286
286.
Since we are putting the total number
of verses per sura at the end of each sura,
we must put the total number of numbered verses (6234) at the end of the Quran.
The last numbers, therefore, represent
the last sura (123456 6), followed by the
number of verses in the Quran (6234):
1 2 3 4 5 6 6 & 6234 >>> 1 2 3 4 5 6
6
6234.
Putting together
all the verses
of all the suras, produces
a long number that consists of 12696 digits,
and is a multiple of 19.
1234567 7 12345...286 286 12345...123456 6 6234 |
SECOND No:
The number of every verse
in every sura
is followed by the number
of verses per sura. The last 11 digits
shown here are the 6 verses of the last sura, followed by its
number of verses
(6), followed by the number
of numbered verses in the Quran (6234). The complete, very long number, is a multiple
of 19. |
Now let us include the number of every sura.
Write down the number of every verse in every sura, followed by the number of
the sura, followed
by the number of verses in the sura. Thus, the number representing Sura 1 looks like this: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
1
7. The number representing Sura 2 looks like this: 1 2 3 4 5 .....284 285 286
2
286. The number representing the last sura (No. 114) looks like this: 1 2 3 4 5 6
114 6. The total number of numbered verses is added at the end. The number representing the whole Quran is a multiple of 19; it looks like this:
1234567 1 7
12345...286
2
286 ...123456 114 6 6234 |
THIRD No: The number
of every verse,
followed by the sura number, then the
number of verses in the sura. The total number
of numbered verses is added
at the end. The long number (12930
digits) is a multiple of 19. |
Instead of putting the
total number of verses in every sura after the sura, let us now put it ahead of the sura. Thus, the number representing Sura 1 looks like this:
7 1234567 1, instead of 1234567 1 7, and the number representing Sura 2 looks like
this: 286 12345.....284 285 286 2, instead of 12345.....284 285 286 2 286. This very long number representing the whole Quran is a multiple of 19.
7 1234567
1 286
12345...286 2...6 123456 114 6234 |
FOURTH No: The total number
of verses in each sura
is followed by the number
of every verse, then the sura number. The last 14 digits shown above are
the number of verses in the last sura (6), followed by the numbers
of the six verses (123456), followed by the number
of the sura (114), then the total number
of numbered verses in the Quran.
The very long
number (consisting of 12930 digits) is a multiple of 19. |
Now, let us write down the number of every verse in every sura, followed by the sum of verse numbers for every sura. Sura 1 consists of 7 verses, and the sum
of verse numbers is 1+2+3+4+5+6+7 = 28. Thus, the number representing Sura 1
looks like this: 1234567
28.
The sum of verse numbers for Sura 2 is 41041 (1+2+3+
... + 286). Thus, the number representing Sura 2 looks like this: 12345...284 285 286 41041.
The number representing the last sura, which consists
of 6 verses, looks like this: 123456 21, since 1+2+3+4+5+6 = 21.
The complete
number, representing the whole Quran, consists
of 12836 digits and is a multiple
of 19. It looks like this:
1234567 28 12345...284285286
41041...123456
21 |
FIFTH No: The number of every verse in every sura is followed by the sum of verse numbers.
The long number
consists of 12836 digits, and is a multiple of 19. |
Remarkably, if we take the “Fifth No.” shown above and reverse the order of verse
numbers and sum of verse numbers, i.e., move the sum of verse numbers, and put it ahead of the sura, the resulting long number is still a multiple of 19.
28 1234567
41041
12345....285286.....21
123456 |
SIXTH No: Placing the sum of verse numbers
ahead of each sura, instead
of after it, produces a long number
(12836 digits) that is also a multiple of 19. |
Even writing the suras backward,
i.e., reversing the order of suras by starting
with the last sura and ending with the first sura, and placing the sum of verse numbers
after the verses of each sura, the product is still a multiple of 19.
123456 21 12345 15..12345..286 41041 1234567 28 |
SEVENTH No: Reversing the order
of suras—starting from the last sura and
ending with the first sura—and writing down
the number of every verse,
with the sum of verse numbers
for every sura after its verses, the product
is a long number consisting of 12836 digits.
This long number
is a multiple of 19. |
Write the sum of verse numbers for the whole Quran (333410), followed by
the number
of
numbered
verses
in
the
Quran
(6234),
then
the
number
of
suras
(114). Every sura is then represented by its number followed by its number of verses.
The numbers representing Suras 1 and 2 are 1 7 and 2 286. The complete number, covering all suras of the Quran, consists of 474 digits,
and is a multiple of 19—it looks like this:
333410 6234
114 1 7
2
286
3
200..113 5 114
6 |
EIGHTH No: The Grand
Sum of verse
numbers (333410) is followed by the
number of numbered verses (6234), the number of suras (114), then the sura number and number of verses of every sura. |
Now let us reverse the order of sura number and its number of verses as presented in the “Eighth
No.” Thus, the numbers representing the first two suras look like
this: 7 1 & 286 2, instead
of 1 7 & 2 286. The complete number also consists of 474 digits and is still a multiple
of 19. It looks like this:
333410 6234 114 7 1 286 2 200 3 ..... 5 113
6
114 |
NINTH No: Reversing the sequence of sura number
and number of verses still gives us a long number that is a multiple of 19. |
If we write down the sum of verse numbers for Sura 1 (28), followed by the
sum of verse numbers for Sura 2 (41041), and so on to the end of the Quran, and
placing the Grand Sum of verse numbers (333410) at the end, the resulting
long number (Tenth No.) consists
of 377 digits, and is a multiple
of 19.
28 41041
20100 .....
15 21 333410 |
TENTH No: The sums of verse
numbers for every
sura in the Quran, are written
next to each
other, followed at the end
by the Grand
Sum of verse
numbers (333410). This long number (377 digits) is a multiple of 19. |
If we write down the number of suras in the Quran (114), followed by the total number of numbered verses (6234), followed
by the number of every sura and its
sum of verse numbers, the final long number (612 digits) is a multiple
of 19.
114 6234 1 28 2 41041 3 20100....113 15 114
21 |
ELEVENTH No: The number
of suras, followed by the number
of numbered verses, then the number
of every sura and its sum of verse numbers,
produce this long number (612 digits) that is a multiple of 19. |
Lest anyone may think that any Quranic parameter
is left un-guarded with this awesome mathematical code, let us look at more parameters.
If we write down the number of suras (114), the number of numbered verses (6234), followed by the Grand
Sum
of
verse
numbers
in
the
whole
Quran
(333410), followed by the numbers
of every sura and its verses, we end up with a very long number (12712 digits)
that is a multiple of 19.
114 6234 333410 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7...114 1 2 3 4 5 6 |
|
TWELFTH NUMBER |
If we write down the numbers of verses in every sura next to each other, we end
up with a 235-digit number
that is a multiple of 19. To do this, write
down the number of numbered verses in the Quran (6234),
followed by the number of numbered verses in every sura, then close with the number of verses in the Quran. The final long number looks like this:
6234 7 286
200 176 .....
127 .... 5
4
5
6
6234 |
(total verses) (First 4 suras) (Sura 9) (Last 4 suras) (total verses) |
|
THIRTEENTH NUMBER |
If we write down the number of numbered verses in the Quran (6234),
followed by the number of suras (114), followed
by the number of every
verse in every sura,
then close with the number
of verses in the Quran
(6234) and the number of suras (114), the final number consists of 12479 digits,
and is a multiple of 19.
6234 114
1234567
12345...286...123456
6234
114 |
|
FOURTEENTH NUMBER |
Another long number that consists of 12774 digits is formed by writing down the
number of every
verse in every
sura, followed by the number
of every sura added to its number of verses.
Sura 1 consists of 7 verses, and the total 1+7 is 8.
Therefore, the number representing Sura 1 looks like this: 1234567 8. Since Sura
2 consists of 286
verses,
the
number
representing
Sura
2
looks
like
this:
12345...286 288. This is done for every sura in the Quran.
The final combined number consists of 12774 digits, and is a multiple of 19.
1234567 8 12345.....286 288..... 123456 120 |
(1+7) (2+286) (114+6) |
|
FIFTEENTH NUMBER |
More specialized features are in Appendices 2, 9, 19, 24, 25, 26, 29, and 37.

A Witness From the Children of Israel
[46:10]
Proclaim: “What if it is from God, and you disbelieved in it? A witness from the Children
of Israel has borne
witness to a similar phenomenon, and he has believed, while
you have turned too arrogant to believe.
God does not guide the wicked.” [ 46:10 ] |
The following quotation
is taken from STUDIES IN JEWISH
MYSTICIM,
(Association for Jewish
Studies, Cambridge, Mass., Joseph Dan & Frank Talmage, eds., Page 88, 1982). The quotation
refers to the work of Rabbi Judah the Pious (12th Century AD):
The people [Jews] in France made it a custom to add [in the morning prayer] the words: “ ’Ashrei temimei derekh [blessed are those who
walk the righteous way],” and our Rabbi, the Pious, of blessed
memory, wrote that they were completely
and utterly wrong. It is all gross falsehood, because there are only nineteen times that the Holy Name
is mentioned [in that portion of the morning prayer] . . .and similarly you find the word ’Elohim nineteen times in the pericope of Ve-’elleh
shemot. . . . Similarly, you find that Israel were called “sons”
nineteen times, and there are many other examples.
All these sets of nineteen
are intricately intertwined, and they contain many secrets and esoteric meanings, which are contained in more than eight large volumes. . .
Furthermore, in this section there are 152 (19x8) words ...
