I have heard of the numeric miracles in the Qur’an, can you please provide some information about these?

The numeric equivalencies of certain issues provides one proof of the Qur’ans Divine origin. I am pleased to give you a few examples:

1. Temporal life – dunya – is mentioned 115 times in the Qur’an and the hereafter – akhirah – is mentioned 115 times.

2. Angels – mala’ikah – are mentioned 88 times, and devils – shayatin – are mentioned
88 times.

3. Life – hayat – is mentioned 145 times and death – mawt – is mentioned 145 times.
4. Humankind – nas – is mentioned 368 times and Messengers – rasul – are mentioned 368 times.

5. Desire – raghbah – is mentioned 8 times and fear – rahbah – is mentioned 8 times.

6. Muhammad (PBUH) is named only 4 times in the Qur’an, and law – shari’ah – is mentioned 4 times.

7. Man – rajul – is mentioned 24 times. Woman – mara’ah – and women – nisa – are mentioned
24 times.

There are dozens of other examples but I hope this clarifies this concept for you. It does illustrate that every single word in the Qur’an has been carefully weighed to ensure the even ‘balance’ of the Holy Book.
