The Noble Qur’an’s Disconnected Letters: Meaningless or

Miracle Beyond Belief?

Has the Qur’an’s numeric miracle finally revealed the secrets – or at least part of the secrets –
behind the mysterious disconnected letters that have baffled scholars for centuries?

What follows is a closer look at two of these unique letter combinations...

Out of the Qur’an’s 114 chapters, 29 begin with disconnected letters, letters which seem to
have no meaning, yet have continued to puzzle, mystify and amaze both Muslims and non-
Muslims alike for the past 1400 years. For the purpose of this paper, these letters will be
called ‘special letters’, and the phrases which they create ‘special phrases’.

Altogether, there are 14 different special phrases in the Qur’an, with the same special
phrase often repeated at the beginning of more than one chapter. They are listed below:

‫ ن‬،‫ ق‬،‫ عسق‬،‫ حم‬،‫ ص‬،‫ يس‬،‫ طس‬،‫ طسم‬،‫ طه‬،‫ كهيعص‬،‫ المر‬،‫ ال ــر‬،‫ المص‬،‫ال ــم‬
It has recently been discovered that these special phrases carry some form of numerical
significance. One of the important numbers that appear to be connected to these letters is
the number 7, whose wonders across the entire Qur’an are evident. As for these special
phrases, one point to note is that there are 14 in total, and the number 14 is a multiple of 7
(14 = 2 x 7). But moreover, the different letters making up these phrases is also 14, which is
precisely half the number of letters in the Arabic alphabet:

‫ا ل م ص ر ك هـ ـ ي ع ط س ح ق ن‬
To illustrate how one of these special phrases is connected to the number 7, we will give the
example of the very first phrase to appear in the Qur’an, the three-lettered Alif Lām Mīm
)‫(الم‬. In order to do this, we must first list the 29 chapters which contain a special phrase in
their order of appearance in the Qur’an.

1- Surat1 Al-Baqarah (Chapter 1: The Cow) begins with the three letters )‫(الـــم‬.
2- Surat Al-‘Imran )Chapter 2: The Family of ‘Imran) begins with )‫(الـــم‬.
3- Surat Al-A’raf )Chapter 7: The Heights( begins with the four letters )‫(ال ػػمص‬.
4- Surat Yunus (Chapter 10: Jonah) begins with )‫(ال ػػر‬.
5- Surat Hud (Chapter 11: Hud) begins with )‫(ال ػػر‬.
6- Surat Yusuf (Chapter 12: Joseph) begins with )‫(ال ػػر‬.

1
Surah means “chapter”, and when we say Chapter: The Cow, for instance, the word Surah becomes Surat.

 7- Surat Al-Ra’d )Chapter 13: The Thunder( begins with )‫(الػ ػمػ ػػر‬.
8- Surat Ibrahim (Chapter 14: Abraham) begins with )‫(ال ػػر‬.
9- Surat Al-Hijr (Chapter 15: Stoneland) begins with )‫(ال ػػر‬.
10- Surat Maryam (Chapter 19: Mary) begins with the five letters )‫(كهيعص‬.
11- Surat Taha (Chapter 20: Taha) begins with the two letters )‫(طه‬.
12- Surat Al-Shuara’ )Chapter 26: The Poets( begins with )‫(طسـ‬.
13- Surat Al-Naml (Chapter 27: The Ants) begins with )‫(طس‬.
14- Surat Al-Qasas (Chapter 28: Stories) begins with )‫(طسـ‬.
15- Surat Al-‘Ankabut )Chapter 29: The Spider( begins with )‫(الـــم‬.
16- Surat Al-Ruum (Chapter 30: The Romans) begins with )‫(الـــم‬.
17- Surat Luqmaan (Chapter 31: Luqman) begins with )‫(الـــم‬.
18- Surat Al-Sajdah (Chapter 32: The Prostration) begins with )‫(الـــم‬.
19- Surat Yaasin (Chapter 36: Yaasin) begins with the two letters )‫(يس‬.
20- Surat Sad (Chapter 38: The Letter Sad) begins with the single letter )‫(ص‬.
21- Surat Ghafir (Chapter 40: The Forgiver (God)) begins with the two letters )‫(حـ‬.
22- Surat Fussilat (Chapter 41: Explained in Detail) begins with )‫(حـ‬.
23- Surat Al-Shura (Chapter 42: Council) begins with two sets of special phrases: )‫ (حـ‬in
the first verse and the three letters )‫ (عسؽ‬in the second.
24- Surat Al-Zukhruf (Chapter 43: Ornaments of Gold) begins with )‫(حـ‬.
25- Surat Al-Dukhan (Chapter 44: Smoke) begins with )‫(حـ‬.
26- Surat Al-Jathiya (Chapter 45: Crouching) begins with )‫(حـ‬.
27- Surat Al-Ahqaf (Chapter 46: The Dunes) begins with )‫(حـ‬.
28- Surat Qaaf (Chapter 50: The Letter Qaaf) begins with )‫(ؽ‬.
29- Surat Al-Qalam (Chapter 68: The Pen) begins with )‫(ف‬.

The Qur’an’s beautiful arrangement of Alif Lām Mīm

Alif Lām Mīm )‫ (الم‬is found in 6 of the above 29 chapters. These are Al-Baqarah, Al-‘Imran,
Al-‘Ankabut, Al-Ruum, Luqmaan and Al-Sajdah.

Firstly, the precise order of these six chapters out of the 29 ‘special-phrase’ chapters creates
a multiple of 7. Their order is as follows:

1. Surat Al-Baqarah

2|Page
 2. Surat Al-‘Imran

15. Surat Al-‘Ankabut

16. Surat Al-Ruum

17. Surat Luqmaan

18. Surat Al-Sajdah

Arranging these six numbers into a single number (in Arabic reading order, from right to left,
because Arabic is the language of the Qur’an( gives us the following:

Al-Sajdah Luqmaan Al-Ruum Al-‘Ankabut Al-‘Imran Al-Baqarah

18 17 16 15 2 1

1817161521 = 259594503 x 7

The final result or quotient, namely 259594503, is also a multiple of 7:

259594503 = 37084929 x 7

The resulting quotient is also a multiple of 7:

37084929 = 5297847 x 7

Not only that, but the digit sum of the final quotient leads to yet another multiple of 7:

5 + 2 + 9 + 7 + 8 + 4 + 7 = 42

42 = 6 x 7

Beautifully, the final result is the number 6, which is the total number of Alif Lām Mīm
openings in the Qur’an!

The verse numbers of Alif Lām Mīm

Alif Lām Mīm is the opening verse of 6 chapters, as already stated. This means that it is
verse 1 of each of these chapters. As trivial as it may seem, arranging these six verse
numbers achieves yet another multiple of 7:

111111 = 15873 x 7

Interestingly, had Alif Lām Mīm been the opening verse of 5 or 7 chapters instead of 6, the
above arrangement would not have produced a multiple of 7.

3|Page
 The total number of verses in each Alif Lām Mīm chapter

The total number of verses in each chapter beginning with Alif Lām Mīm – starting from the
first to the last Alif Lām Mīm chapter – is shown below:

 Surat Al-Baqarah consists of 286 verses.

 Surat Al-‘Imran consists of 200 verses.

 Surat Al-‘Ankabut consists of 69 verses.

 Surat Al-Ruum consists of 60 verses.

 Surat Luqmaan consists of 34 verses.

 Surat Al-Sajdah consists of 30 verses.

Arranging these verse counts produces the following:

Al-Sajdah Luqmaan Al-Ruum Al-‘Ankabut Al-‘Imran Al-Baqarah

30 34 60 69 200 286

The number representing the verse count of each chapter beginning with Alif Lām Mīm, in
the order of appearance in the Qur’an, is 30346069200286. This number has four notable
features:

1. It is 14 digits long, or 2 x 7.

2. It is a multiple of 7:

30346069200286 = 4335152742898 x 7

3. The total number of verses is a multiple of 7:

30 + 34 + 60 + 69 + 200 + 286 = 679

679 = 97 x 7

4. Its digit sum is a multiple of 7, and not just any multiple of 7:

3 + 3 + 4 + 6 + 6 + 9 + 2 + 2 + 8 + 6 = 49

49 = 7 x 7

In other words, this number is a multiple of 7, its digit count is a multiple of 7, its digit sum is
precisely 7 x 7, and the verses being considered total a multiple of 7!

 The Numeric System behind Alif Lām Mīm
We now explore the first chapter in which the special phrase Alif Lām Mīm is found, before
we study the very last chapter in which it is cited.

The first chapter starting with Alif Lām Mīm

The first verse of Al-Baqarah, which is Alif Lām Mīm, is followed by a verse which states:

      

This is the Book; in it is guidance sure, without doubt, to those who fear God;

Al-Baqarah, 2:2

Amazingly, we will soon find out that God Almighty has organised the three letters Alif Lām
Mīm across this verse in a manner that is perfectly coherent with the number 7.

Once again, the three letters we are considering are:

‫ا ل م‬
We will now write the second verse of Al-Baqarah below, and search for the above three
letters in each of its words. And under each word, we write the total number of Alif (‫)أ‬, Lām

(‫ )ؿ‬and Mīm (‫ )ـ‬letters it contains:

َ)‫بَ(رَيَب‬
ََ ‫لَ(ؿَا)ََََََََََ َرْي‬ َُ َ‫ؾَ(ذَؿَؾ)ََََََََََاْل ِكَت‬
ََ ََََََََََ)‫بَ(اَؿَؾَتَب‬ ََ ِ‫َذل‬

0 2 2 1

ََ ‫يهَ(ؼَيَهػ ػ)ََََََََََ ُه ًدىَ(ه ػػَدَى)ََََََََََِلْم ُمتَِّق‬

َ)‫يفَ(ؿَؿَـَتَؽَيَف‬ َِ ‫َ ِف‬

3 0 0

The number representing the amount of Alif Lām Mīm letters in each word of the above
verse is 3000221, a multiple of 7:

3000221 = 428603 x 7

Amazingly, the above quotient is also a multiple of 7.

428603 = 61229 x 7

Even more amazingly, the resulting quotient is still a multiple of 7!

5|Page
 61229 = 8747 x 7

In other words, our original number 3000221 is a multiple of 7 three times!

3000221 = 8747 x 7 x 7 x 7

This result can only be a definite confirmation that God Almighty alone could have designed
this verse and perfected every one of its letters. And to appreciate the accuracy of its
words, we will consider one of its more minute details.

The word )‫ (الكتاب‬which means “The Book”, is written in a different manner in standard
Arabic than it is found in the Qur’an. We can observe the difference here:

Qur’anic Arabic Standard Arabic

‫الكتب‬ ‫الكتاب‬

The extra Alif (‫ )أ‬found in the standard version of the word would have destroyed all the
above arrangements, because it would have produced the number 3000231, which is not a
multiple of 7!

The arrangement of words

Part of the greatness of the Qur’an’s numeric miracle is its creativity, and the different
methods by which numbers can be counted and arranged. One of the basic rules when
studying numbers in the Qur’an is the following “one-zero rule”:

 Words containing any Alif (‫)أ‬, Lām (‫ )ؿ‬and Mīm (‫ )ـ‬letters are assigned the number 1.

 Words containing no such letters are assigned the number 0.

We now rewrite the verse with this simple rule in mind:

َ)‫بَ(رَيَب‬
ََ ‫لَ(ؿَا)ََََََََََ َرْي‬ َُ َ‫ؾَ(ذَؿَؾ)ََََََََََاْل ِكَت‬
ََ ََََََََََ)‫بَ(اَؿَؾَتَب‬ ََ ِ‫َذل‬

0 1 1 1

ََ ‫يهَ(ؼَيَهػ ػ)ََََََََََ ُه ًدىَ(ه ػػَدَى)ََََََََََِلْم ُمتَِّق‬

َ)‫يفَ(ؿَؿَـَتَؽَيَف‬ َِ ‫َ ِف‬

1 0 0

1000111 = 142873 x 7

6|Page
 The arrangement of words and letters

From the above arrangements, we can deduce that the total number of Alif Lām Mīm letters
in the verse is 8, and the total number of Alif Lām Mīm words is 4. Let us see the
arrangement below:

Alif Lām Mīm letters Alif Lām Mīm words

8 4

84 = 12 x 7

The last chapter starting with Alif Lām Mīm

The final Qur’anic chapter that begins with the special phrase Alif Lām Mīm as its first verse
is Surat Al-Sajdah. As we did with Surat Al-Baqarah, we now consider the verse that directly
follows these special letters:

       

(This is) the Revelation of the Book in which there is no doubt,- from the Lord of the Worlds.

Al-Sajdah, 32:2

Again, we will look for the number of Alif (‫)أ‬, Lām (‫ )ؿ‬and Mīm (‫ )ـ‬letters in each one of the
words in this verse:

َ)‫بَ(رَيَب‬
ََ ‫لَ(ؿَا)ََََََََََ َرْي‬ َِ َ‫ؿَ(تَفَزَيَؿ)ََََََََََاْل ِكت‬

)‫يفَ(اَؿَعَؿَـَيَف‬ َِ ‫َ ِف‬

4 0 1 0

The number 40100221 is a multiple of 7 even when completely reversed!

40100221 = 5728603 x 7

12200104 = 1742872 x 7

7|Page
 The arrangement of words

Using the “one-zero” rule, we assign the number 0 to any words containing no Alif Lām Mīm
letters, and the number 1 to words containing any of these letters:

َ)‫بَ(رَيَب‬
ََ ‫لَ(ؿَا)ََََََََََ َرْي‬ َِ َ‫ؿَ(تَفَزَيَؿ)ََََََََََاْل ِكت‬

ََ ‫يهَ(ؼَيَهػ ػ)ََََََََََ ِمفَ(ـَف)َََََََََََّربََ(رَب)ََََََََََاْل َعمَ ِم‬

)‫يفَ(اَؿَعَؿَـَيَف‬ َِ ‫َ ِف‬

1 0 1 0

10100111 = 1442873 x 7

The arrangement of words and letters

The number of words containing any Alif Lām Mīm letters is 5, and the number of Alif Lām
Mīm letters in the verse is 10:

Alif Lām Mīm letters Alif Lām Mīm words

10 5

105 = 15 x 7

Having established some of the approaches to dealing with the special phrases numerically,
two particular special phrases will now be explored, in an attempt to show that the
inimitability of the number 7 is not limited to a few chapters, but stretches across the entire
Qur’an, and that its miraculous nature is no coincidence.

Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf: The only two special phrases found in a single chapter; a profound
example of the magnificence of the number 7 in the Qur’an

Of all 29 chapters containing a special phrase, there exists one particular chapter which
contains two. The rest contain only one. This, if anything, is a curious fact.

In any case, the critical question is this: does the number 7 have something to say about
these two peculiar phrases? These form the opening two verses of Surat Al-Shurah
(Chapter: The Council):

   

Ḥā Mīm )1( ʿAyn Sīn Qāf )2(

Al-Shurah, 42:1-2

Since two phrases are being dealt with in a single chapter rather than one, potentially many
more multiples of 7 may be found. An interesting point to make is that Al-Shurah is the 42nd
of the Qur’an, and 42, of course, is a multiple of 7 )42 = 6 x 7(. In this, perhaps, is a hidden
suggestion as to the significance of the number 7 in this chapter.

Brief introduction to both phrases

The first special phrase, Ḥā Mīm )‫(حم‬, is actually the opening phrase of 7 chapters in the
Qur’an, Al-Shurah being one of them. It consists of two letters, namely Ḥā )‫ (ح‬and Mīm )‫(م‬.

The second special phrase ʿAyn Sīn Qāf )‫(عسق‬, is only mentioned in Al-Shurah. However, its
three letters ʿAyn )‫(ع‬, Sīn )‫ (س‬and Qāf )‫ (ق‬are found in other special phrases across the
Qur’an. Having said this, an interesting fact appears with respect to the letter Qāf )‫(ق‬,
which, crucially, is the first letter in the word Qur’an )‫(قرآن‬. The only other time the letter
Qāf )‫ (ق‬is found in a special phrase is in fact in Surat Qāf (Chapter: The Letter Qāf). As the
name suggests, the opening phrase in this chapter is the single letter Qāf. Interestingly, in
both chapters (Al-Shurah and Qāf), the letter Qāf is repeated precisely 57 times, despite Al-
Shurah being a slightly longer chapter than Qāf. Adding these occurrences of the letter Qāf
gives the number 114, which is the total number of chapters in the Qur’an! This, of course,
is only a minor yet profound observation, and the focus of this work will now shift to a much
more detailed investigation of the five opening letters in Al-Shurah.

The first verse following Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf

The verse following Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf in Al-Shurah is the third verse of this chapter,
namely:

9|Page

Thus doth (He) send inspiration to thee as (He did) to those before thee,- God, Exalted in
Power, Full of Wisdom.

Al-Shurah, 42:3

The letters Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf will now be looked for in each word of this verse. In
Arabic, of course, these five letters are:

‫ح م ع س ق‬
ِ ‫ؾَ(ؾَذَؿَؾ)ََََََََََي‬
ََ ‫وحيَ(يَوَحَي)ََََََََََإِلَ ْي‬

2 1 0

The resulting number, 21011000010, is a multiple of 7 when read from either direction:

21011000010 = 3001571430 x 7

1000011012 = 142858716 x 7

Interestingly, the letter Ḥā )‫ (ح‬of the special phrase Ḥā Mīm, despite being repeated only
twice in this verse, is remarkably distributed in a manner that produces a multiple of 7.
Looking solely for this letter across the words of this verse creates the following
arrangement:

ِ ‫ؾَ(ؾَذَؿَؾ)ََََََََََي‬
ََ ‫وحيَ(يَوَحَي)ََََََََََإِلَ ْي‬

Ḥā Mīm in verse 5: the verse of glorification

The 5th verse of Al-Shurah is a description of the sheer greatness of God Almighty, and the
extent to which He deserves praise and glory. At the same, it is a reassurance that He alone
is Most Forgiving and Most Merciful:

celebrate the Praises of their Lord, and pray for forgiveness for (all) beings on earth: Behold!
Verily God is He, the Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Al-Shurah, 42:5

As profound as this verse is, what is also astounding is its remarkable numeric relationship
with the first special phrase of Al-Shurah and the most repeated special phrase in the
Qur’an, Ḥā Mīm. In Arabic, these two letters are:

‫ح م‬
Searching for these two special letters in each word of verse 5 produces the arrangement
found below:

The letter Ḥā )‫(ح‬, despite being repeated only three times in this verse, is arranged in

Who could have created such infallible arrangements in one verse, which fittingly happens
to depict the heavens almost collapsing by God’s Majesty? Who is it that could have
designed such a flawless system within a single verse, whereby searching for two letters,
either separately or collectively, still gives rise to perfect multiples of 7? Could it possibly
have been the messenger of God, Muhammad (peace be upon him), an unschooled man
who love more than 14 centuries ago, or God Almighty Himself, the very creator of the
seven heavens and the earth?

 Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf in verse 11

In the 11th verse of Al-Shurah, God proclaims Himself the creator of the heavens and the
earth, and emphasises His uniqueness by stating that nothing is like Him in any way:

(He is) the Creator of the heavens and the earth: He has made for you pairs from among
yourselves, and pairs among cattle: by this means does He multiply you: there is nothing

Al-Shurah, 42:11

It was noted from previous verses that one can search either for all the letters of a particular
special phrase within a verse, or simply for one of those letters. That being said, the letter
Sīn )‫(س‬, which is repeated no more than 4 times in this verse, is remarkably arranged across
its words:

Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf in verse 17: the verse of balance

In verse 17 of Al-Shurah, God Almighty states:

It is God Who has sent down the Book in Truth, and the Balance (by which to weigh
conduct). And what will make thee realise that perhaps the Hour is close at hand?

Al-Shurah, 42:17

In this verse, God declares that it is none other than He who has revealed the Qur’an in both
truth and balance.

Interestingly, having mentioned balance, could this verse have actually balanced the
arrangement of both Ḥā Mīm and ʿAyn Sīn Qāf within its words? In other words, could the
arrangement of each of these two special phrases on their own – using the one-zero
balancing rule that was applied earlier with Alif Lām Mīm – produce a multiple of 7 in both
cases? Let’s find out.

Firstly, searching for the letters Ḥā Mīm only, the following rule will be applied:

 The number 1 is assigned to each word containing any Ḥā Mīm letters (regardless
their amount).
 The number 0 is assigned to each word containing no Ḥā Mīm letters.

That being said, for further clarification, the letters Ḥā and Mīm in Arabic are:

The resulting number, 101010000 is a multiple of 7:

101010000 = 14430000 x 7

The same logic will now be repeated for ʿAyn Sīn Qāf, which, in Arabic are:

‫ع س ق‬

ََ َ‫ؿَ(أَفَزَؿ)ََََََََََاْل ِكت‬

The above arrangement produces 1110000010000, which is also multiple of 7:

1110000010000 = 158571430000 x 7

Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf in verse 29: a statement of God’s ultimate power

In Al-Shurah’s 29th verse, God Almighty beautifully declares that He not only created the
heavens and the earth, but that He has power over all his creations:

As a simple reminder, the letters Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf in Arabic are:

Searching for these letters in every word of this verse creates the following:

Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf in verse 49: God alone determines gender

Parents who await the birth of their child will often have a particular preference as to
gender. Some may hope that it turns out a boy, others may wish for a girl. Ultimately,
however, as they know full well, that is not in their hands, but is solely up to God’s Will:

Interestingly, the above verse is the 49th of Al-Shurah (49 = 7 x 7), and the total number of
Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf letters it contains is 7. But more importantly, how are these letters
organised across its words? This is demonstrated below, but as a quick reminder, the

 Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf in Al-Shurah’s final two verses: a wonderful arrangement

The last two verses of Al-Shurah, verses 52 and 53, are connected in meaning. The 52nd
verse features God Almighty telling the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) that he is
no more than a messenger of God, and that God has granted him the light of the Qur’an and
guided him to the straight path. The final verse follows on this by confirming that this
straight path is that of God, to whom everything belongs.

That being said, it would make sense to look for the arrangement of Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf in
both verses together, which, of course, is going to produce a relatively large number. In any
case, Al-Shurah’s final two verses state the following:

1000000102010000 = 142857157430000 x 7

Interestingly, the above arrangement of Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf in Al-Shurah’s final verse is a
multiple of 7 even when reversed (just like the verse 3 of the chapter, which comes directly
after these special phrases!):

102010000001 = 14572857143 x 7

In other words, the third verse (which is the first verse to follow the special phrases found in
verse 1 and 2) and the last verse of this chapter are both multiples of 7 if read from either
direction!

Since this chapter seems to be inextricably connected to the number 7, does the 7th verse of
Al-Shurah have anything interesting to add?

Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf in the 7th verse of Al-Shurah

Verse 7 of Al-Shurah is as follows:

Thus have We sent by inspiration to thee an Arabic Qur'an: that thou mayest warn the
Mother of Cities and all around her,- and warn (them) of the Day of Assembly, of which
there is no doubt: (when) some will be in the Garden, and some in the Blazing Fire.

Al-Shurah, 42:7

In this verse, the letters of the first special phrase, Ḥā Mīm, are repeated 6 times in this
verse. The letters of the second special phrase, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf are repeated 8 times. In total,
therefore, the letters of the two special phrases Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf are found 14 times in
this 7th verse of Al-Shurah, and 14 is a multiple of 7:

14 = 2 x 7

This verse is not as simple as that, however. In order to extract precisely how many times
each of the five letters (Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf) are repeated in this verse, the letters of every
word will be broken down, and any occurrence of these five letters will be marked in red:

From the above illustration, one can deduce that the 14 repetitions of Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf
are distributed among these special letters in the following manner:

 Ḥā )‫ (ح‬is repeated 2 times.

 Mīm )‫ (م‬is repeated 4 times.
 ‘Ayn )‫ (ع‬is repeated 3 times.
 Sīn )‫ (س‬is repeated 1 time.
 Qāf )‫ (ق‬is repeated 4 times.

Combining these repetitions into a single arrangement from right to left (Arabic reading
order), beginning with Ḥā, followed by Mīm, ʿAyn, Sīn and Qāf (as this is the order of the
Qur’an( gives rise to the following:

‫ق‬ ‫س‬ ‫ع‬ ‫م‬ ‫ح‬

Qāf Sīn ʿAyn Mīm Ḥā

4 1 3 4 2

25 | P a g e
The number 41342 is a multiple of 7:

41342 = 5906 x 7

In addition, each special phrase considered separately creates a multiple of 7. Beginning

with Ḥā Mīm, the arrangement looks like this:

‫م‬ ‫ح‬
Mīm Ḥā

4 2

42 = 6 x 7

Similarly, ʿAyn, Sīn Qāf is shown below:

‫ق‬ ‫س‬ ‫ع‬

Qāf Sīn ʿAyn

4 1 3

413 = 59 x 7

Amazingly, the marvels of this verse are still not complete. The letter Ḥā )‫(ح‬, the first letter
of Al-Shurah’s first special phrase, is repeated a mere 2 times in this verse. Nevertheless,
the arrangement of these 2 repetitions forms a multiple of 7:

Words literally containing Ḥā Mīm in Al-Shurah: intriguing insight

The special phrase Ḥā Mīm, though in itself is not a word, consists of two letters that often
come together to help create a word. To strike a parallel example in English, the letters ‘th’
do not form a word, but are often written together as part of a word, such as in ‘ethics’,
which, of course, is an actual word.

28 | P a g e
Similarly, there are words in Al-Shurah which contain the letters Ḥā Mīm )‫ (حم‬as part of a
word, such as )‫‘ (الحميد‬The Praiseworthy’, )‫‘ (رحمة‬mercy’, and so on. Across the entire
chapter, there are five such words, and these are the following:

 )‫‘ (بحمد‬with the praise’, found in verse 5.

 )‫‘ (رحمته‬His mercy’, found in verse 8.
 )‫‘ (رحمته‬His mercy’, found in verse 28.
 )‫‘ (الحميد‬The Praiseworthy’, found also in verse 28.
 )‫‘ (رحمة‬mercy’, found in verse 48.

Arranging these verse numbers in their Qur’anic order )including the repeated verse 28(
produces a magnificent result:

Verse Verse Verse Verse Verse

48 28 28 8 5

Amazingly, the number 48282885 is a multiple of 7, not once, but twice:

48282885 = 6897555 x 7

6897555 = 985365 x 7

In other words:

48282885 = 985365 x 7 x 7

The multiples of 7 inherent in this chapter, Surat Al-Shurah, are still not over. Many more
multiples await, multiples which are in fact (unbelievably!) more profound and remarkable
in nature than those already witnessed above. It is now time to take a in-depth look at the
following awe-inspiring arrangements.

Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf across the entire chapter: a whole new level of miracle

The profoundness of the numeric arrangements that will now be witnessed are, believe it or
not, monumentally larger than those already encountered, and involve far greater detail.

The following table is the result of a decent amount of counting. It represents the total
number of every special letter in every one of Al-Shurah’s 53 verses. Despite the sheer
amount of numbers in this table, readers are assured of their complete accuracy, as they
have been checked many times. Nevertheless, any reader wishing to double check the work
done below is welcome and in fact encouraged to do so.

TOTALS 57 53 98 208 297 51 348

As the above table illustrates, the totals for Ḥā Mīm are separated from those of ʿAyn Sīn
Qāf, simply because these are two different special phrases found in two different verses.

To begin with, the total number of Ḥā Mīm letters and ʿAyn Sīn Qāf are clearly depicted as
348 and 208, respectively. Arranging these two numbers represents the first and easiest
multiple of 7 that can be extracted from the above table:

Total ʿAyn, Sīn and Qāf letters Total Ḥā and Mīm letters

208 348

The resulting number is in fact a multiple of 7 twice:

208348 = 4252 x 7 x 7

What if a more ambitious approach was taken, however? What about arranging the total
number of Ḥā Mīm letters from every verse? The number would look something like this:

31 | P a g e
 Verse 52 Verse 51 Verse 50 >>>> Verse 1

Ḥā Mīm letters Ḥā Mīm letters Ḥā Mīm letters >>>> Ḥā Mīm letters

4 11 9 >>>> 2

The resulting number is:

4119451113811845552848611376761628811118173918151449641065104402

This number, despite being no less than 64 digits in length, is a perfect, decimal-free
multiple of 7!!

4119451113811845552848611376761628811118173918151449641065104402 =

588493016258835078978373053823089830159739131164492805866443486 x 7

What if the same outcome repeated itself with ʿAyn Sīn Qāf, Al-Shurah’s second special
phrase? Wouldn’t that be quite simply miraculous?

Once again, arranging the total number of ʿAyn, Sīn and Qāf letters from every verse into a
single number produces:

143529211041534040414211352538796304855988671218243230

The above 54-digit number is, remarkably, yet another multiple of 7!

143529211041534040414211352538796304855988671218243230 =

20504173005933434344887336076970900693712667316891890 x 7

After all this, could there be anything left? As extraordinary as it may seem, there actually
are a few left.

What if an arrangement was constructed representing the number of separate Ḥā and

(separate) Mīm letters of each verse, instead of finding the sum of Ḥā and Mīm in every
verse? To clarify matters, such an arrangement would of course be by far the largest yet,
and would look like this:

Verse 52 Verse 51 >>>> Verse 1

Total Mīm Total Ḥā Total Mīm Total Ḥā >>>> Total Mīm Total Ḥā

4 0 9 2 >>>> 1 1

The resulting number which arises from forming such an arrangement is:

40925440508313080110804041503220803171511001217060704210512053531011105310
612163171150122409051318242417340220011

32 | P a g e
Incredibly, this 113-digit number is a perfect multiple of 7:

40925440508313080110804041503220803171511001217060704210512053531011105310

01737595878588915578759748916762888573 x 7

What if the same logic from the above arrangement was applied to Ḥā Mīm, ʿAyn Sīn Qāf;
that is, to all 5 special letters? The arrangement would be practically enormous to say the
least, and would look like this:

Verse 52 >>>> Verse 1

ʿAyn Sīn Qāf Mīm Ḥā >>>> ʿAyn Sīn Qāf Mīm Ḥā

0 1 0 4 0 >>>> 0 0 0 1 1

The massive number which arises is given below:

10401129202154203401105024383110130010803341101128000140122410125002232000

0151101310018241342002411307301240101221110000011

For once, the resulting arrangement is actually not a multiple of 7. Peculiarly, however, it is
a multiple of another prime number, namely 11:

10401129202154203401105024383110130010803341101128000140122410125002232000

0151101310018241342002411307301240101221110000011 =

13736482728931031091128300663749100111010000001 x 11

To this final result, I must confess to that I have honestly no explanation. God, of course,
always knows best.

One fact remains certain, however, namely that the number 7 is by no means the only
miraculous number in the Noble Qur’an, simply because many other numbers are found
within its verses. On many occasions have other numbers - including many prime numbers
such as 11, 13, and 19 - portrayed various examples of their miraculous presence in the
Qur’an, and the above outcome is perhaps one more indication.

 Conclusion

In conclusion, out of the 29 Qur’anic chapters that begin with special phrases, we have
performed a detailed investigation of merely one, and have in spite of this extracted no less
than 30 profound multiples of 7.

Some critical questions instantly spring to mind: What would we find if we were to study all
29 chapters? What would we find if we were to study the six other chapters that began
with Ḥā Mīm? Will we ever discover all the wonders behind the Qur’anic numbers? Are we
possibly at the brink of a groundbreaking, earth-rattling, historic discovery that presents
tangible, literal proof of God Almighty’s existence and pure majesty?

Crucially, we cannot forget that this Noble Qur’an was revealed more than 1400 years ago,
to man who was unschooled, in a time and place where mathematics was virtually
unknown. How could someone in the position of Muhammad (peace be upon), elegantly
design an ingenious numeric system with such sensitive, intricately woven details and allow
it to stand the sturdy test of time, only for the people of the 21st century to finally unlock its
glorious secrets? How could he have possibly been able to create such massive numbers,
and verify their accuracy in 7th century Arabia?

It is a feat, which even in the digital age we live in today, is absolutely impossible to
accomplish, to say the very least.

The Noble Qur’an, in fact, has the emphatic answer to that in only a few lines; and one
which has actually stood the challenging test of time to this very day:

Do they not consider the Qur'an (with care)? Had it been from other Than God, they would
surely have found therein Much discrepancy.

Al-Nisa’, 4:82

Or do they say, "He forged it"? say: "Bring then a Surah like unto it, and call (to your aid)
anyone you can besides God, if it be ye speak the truth!"

Yunus, 10:38
