NUMEROLOGICAL CALCULATIONS (ABJAD) IN THE QUR¶AN

Every letter in the Arabic alphabet has a numerical (gematrical) value. In other words, in Arabic

every letter stands for a number. A number of calculations can be made from this basis. Theseare referred to as numerological (abjad) calculations or ³hisab al-jumal.´239 Muslims who took

advantage of the fact that every letter of the alphabet represents a number have used this in a

number of fields. Ilm¶ul Jafr is one of these.

Jafr is the science of foretelling what is likely to happen in the future. One of the methods

employed by people who engage in this is to compare symbolic forms and letters¶ numerologicalvalues. The main difference between ³abjad ́ and ³ jafr ́ methods is that the former refers to what

has already taken place and the latter to what is likely to take place in the future.240

This method of calculation is a form of writing which goes back several centuries and which waswidely used before the revelation of the Qur¶an. Everything which happened in Arab history was

written down by attributing numerical values to letters thus the date of every event was recorded.These dates were obtained by adding up the particular numerical values of every letter employed.

When certain verses of the Qur¶an are examined in the light of the ³abjad ́ method, we see that a

number of dates emerge which are fully in accordance with the meanings of those verses. Whenwe see that things referred to in these verses actually happened on the dates obtained by this



method, we understand that there is a secret indication regarding those events in the verses.(Allah knows best.)

The 1969 Moon Landing is Indicated in the Qur¶an

The Hour has drawn near and the moon has split. (Qur¶an,54:1)

The Arabic word ³inshaqqa´ (split) used in the above verse is derived from the word

³shaqqa,´ which can also be used to mean ³causing something to rise, ploughing or digging the soil´:

We pour down plentiful water, thensplit the earth into furrows. Then

We make grain grow in it, andgrapes and herbs and olives and

dates and luxuriant gardens andorchards and meadows.

(Qur¶an, 80:25-31)

As we can see, the word ³ shaqqa´ in the above verse is not being used in the sense of ³dividing

into two´ but of ³slicing through the soil, reaping various crops.´ When evaluated in this sense,

the meaning of the word ³ shaqqa´ in the expression ³the moon has split´ (Qur¶an, 54:1) canalso be seen to be referring to the 1969 moon landing and the studies performed on the moon

land. (Allah knows best.) In fact, there is another very important indication here: Some of the³abjad ́ values of certain words in this verse in Surat al-Qamar also point to the figure 1969.

One important point which needs to be stressed in this method of calculation is the likelihood of producing very large or irrelevant numbers. Despite the probability of a relevant number

emerging being exceedingly small, it is striking that such a clear figure should result.

The Hour [has drawn near] and the moon has split.

Hijri: 1390, Gregorian: 1969



In 1969, American astronauts carried out research on the Moon, dug the soil up with various pieces of equipment, split it and carried specimens back to Earth.

We must, however, make it clear that the splitting of the Moon is of course one of the miracles

given to our Prophet (saas) by Allah. This miracle is revealed thus in a hadith:

The people of Mecca asked Allah¶s Apostle to show them a miracle. So he showed them themoon split in two halves between which they saw the Hiram¶ mountain. (Sahih Bukhari)

The above miracle is the splitting of the Moon revealed in the verse. However, since the Qur¶anis a Book that addresses all times, one may think of this verse as referring to the exploration of

the Moon in our own day. (Allah knows best.)

THE MIRACLE OF 19 IN THE QUR¶AN

Another mathematical miracle of the Qur¶an is the manner in which the number 19 is

numerologically encoded in verses. This number is stressed in the words of the Qur¶an: ³There

are nineteen in charge of it.´ (Qur¶an, 74:30), and is encoded in various places in the Book.

Some examples of this can be listed as follows:

The Formula consists of 19 letters.

2nd letter 9thletter

3rd letter 10thletter

4th letter 11thletter

19thletter



The Qur¶an consists of 114 (19 x 6) Suras.

The first Sura to be revealed (Sura 96) is the 19th from the end.

The first verses of the Qur¶an to be revealed are the first five verses of Sura 96 and the total

number of words in these verses is 19.

.




As we have seen, the first five verses consist of 19 words. The ³ ´ is a letter, not a word.Likewise, letters ³ ´ are not included in the calculation either.

The first Sura to be revealed, Surat al-¶Alaq, consists of 19 verses and 285 (19 x 15) letters.

Surat an-Nasr, the final Sura to be revealed, consists of a total of 19 words.

5th word 4th word 3rd word 2nd word 1st word

10th word 9th word 8th word 7th word 6th word

12th word 11th word


19th word 18th word 17th word

Furthermore, the first verse of Surat an-Nasr, which speaks of the help of Allah, contains 19

letters.

begin with the formula, Surat an-Naml follows 19 Suras on.

There is a formula at the beginning of the 27th Sura, Surat an-Naml, and in verse 30. There are

thus two formulas in the 27th Sura. It is the formula in the 30th verse of the 27th Sura whichcompletes the total of 114 formulas in the Qur¶an. When we add together the number of the verseand the number of the Sura, 30 and 27, we find the number 57 (19 x 3).

The total number of Suras from Surat at-Tawba (9) to Surat an-Naml (27) is 342 (9 + 10 + 11+12 +13 +14 +15 +16 + 17 + 18 + 19 + 20 + 21 + 22 + 23 + 24 + 25 + 26 + 27). That figure is 19

multiplied by 18.



The sum of all the occurrences of the name ³Allah´ in all the verses whose numbers are

multiples of 19 (i.e., verses 19, 38, 57, 76, etc.) is 133, or 19 x 7.

The ³abjad ́ value of the word ³wahd ́ meaning ³one´ is 19. This word is used with various

other words in the Qur¶an, such as one door, one variety of food. It is used 19 times together with

the name ³Allah.´

Total abjad value of the word 19

The total of the Sura and verse numbers of the occasions when the word ³wahd´ appears 19times is 361: (19 x 19).

The Arabic word ³wahdahu,´ meaning ³worship only Allah,´ appears in the verses 7:70,

39:45, 40:12, 40:84 and 60:4. When these figures are added up without numbers being repeated,the resulting total is 361 (19 x 19).

The number of verses between the first initial letters (Alif, Lam, Mim; Surat al-Baqara 1) and

the final initial letters (Nun; Surat al-Qalam 1) is 5,263 (19 x 277).

There are 38 (19 x 2) Suras without initial letters between the first Sura which has initial

letters and the last to have them.

The word ³ Rahman´ (All-Merciful) appears 57 (19 x 3) times in the Qur¶an.

Thirty different numbers are mentioned in the Qur¶an.

1 7 19 70 1.000

2 8 20 80 2.000 3 9 30 99 3.000

4 10 40 100 5.000

5 11 50 200 50.000

6 12 60 300 100.000



The total of these numbers (again without taking repetitions into account) is 162,146. This is 19x 8,534:

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 + 11 + 12 + 19 +20 + 30 + 40 + 50 + 60 + 70 + 80 + 99 +

100 + 200 + 300 + 1,000 + 2,000 + 3,000 + 5,000 + 50,000 + 100,000 = 162,146 (19 x 8,534).

In addition to these thirty numbers, the Qur¶an also refers to eight fractions: 1/10, 1/8, 1/6,

1/5, 1/4, 1/3, 1/2 and 2/3. The Qur¶an thus contains a total of 38 (19 x 2) different numbers.

The Sura from the beginning to possess 19 verses is Surat al-Infitar. Another feature of this

Sura is that its final word is ³Allah.´ At the same time, this is the 19th appearance of the name

³Allah´ from the end.

The 50th Sura, which begins with the letter Qaf, contains a total of 57 (19 x 3) letters Qaf.

There are also 57 letters Qaf in the 42nd Sura with a letter Qaf at the beginning. The 50th Suracontains 45 verses. Added together, these total 95 (19 x 5). There are 53 verses in the 42nd Sura.

These again total 95 (42 + 53).

50th Sura 57 (19×3) Letter Qaf

42nd Sura 57 (19×3) Letter Qaf

50th Sura 45th verse 50+45=95 (19×5)

42nd Sura 53rd verse 42+53=95 (19×5)

The abjad value of the word ³ M ajeed ,´ used for the Qur¶an, in the first verse of Surah Qaf is57 (19 x 3). As we have stated above, the total number of letters Qaf is also 57.

When we add together the number of times that the letter Qaf appears in the Qur¶an, we reach

a total of 798 (19 x 42). Forty-two is the number of another Sura with Qaf among its initialletters.

The letter Nun appears at the beginning of only the 68th Sura. The total number of times it

appears in that Sura is 133 (19 x 7).

When we add together the number of verses (including the formulas) in Suras the number of

which are multiples of 19, the following is noteworthy:

SURA NUMBER NUMBER OF VERSES

19×1 19th Sura 99

19×2 38th Sura 89

19×3 57th Sura 30

19×4 76th Sura 32



19×5 95th Sura 9

19×6 114th Sura 7

TOTAL =266 (19×4)

The letters Ya and Sin appear at the beginning of Surah Ya Sin. The letter Sin appears 48times in Surah Ya Sin and the letter Ya 237 times. The total of these letters is 285 (19 x 15).

Only one Sura, the seventh, begins with the initial letters ³Alif, Lam, Mim, Sad.´ The letter

Alif appears in this Sura 2,529 times, the letter Lam 1,530 times, the letter Mim 1,164 times andthe letter Sad 97 times. These four letters thus appear a total of 2,529 + 1,530 + 1,164 + 97 times,

or 5,320 (19 x 280) times.

The letters Alif, Lam and Mim are the most frequently used letters in Arabic. They appear

together at the beginning of six Suras: numbers 2, 3, 29, 30, 31 and 32. The number of timesthese three letters appear in each of these six Suras is a multiple of 19. In order: 9,899 (19 x 521),

5,662 (19 x 298), 1,672 (19 x 88), 1,254 (19 x 66) and 817 (19 x 43). The total number of timesall these three letters appear in the six Suras is 19,874 (19 x 1,046).

The initial letters Alif, Lam and Ra appear in Suras 10, 11, 12, 14 and 15. The total number

of times these letters appear in these Suras is 2,489 (19 x 131), 2,489 (19 x 131), 2,375 (19 x125), 1,197 (19 x 63) and 912 (19 x 48).

The frequency with which the initial letters Alif, Lam, Mim and Ra appear is 1,482 (19 x 78)

in total. The letter Alif appears 605 times, Lam 480 times, Mim 260 times and Ra 137 times.

The initial letters Qaf, Ha, Ya, µAyn and Sad appear in only one Sura, the 19th. The letter Qaf appears 137 times in this Sura, Ha 175 times, Ya 343 times, µAyn 117 times and Sad 26 times.The total number of appearances of these five letters is 137 + 175 + 343 + 117 + 26 = 798 (19 x

42).

Other findings on this subject include:

In the whole of the Qur¶an,

- the word ³atee´ (obey!) appears 19 times,

- the words ³ Abd ́ (servant), ³abid ́ (a person who serves) and ³abud u´ (worship) appear a totalof 152 (19 x times,

The numerical abjad values of some of the names of Allah given below are also multiples of

19:

- Al-Wahid (The One) 19 (19 x 1)





Figure 2: The first 19 figures

Conclusion:

The total of the first 19 figures is a multiple of 19.

The total of the first 19 numbers is a multiple of 19.

The connection between the number 19 and the Pascal triangle with regard to the revelationsequence of the Qur¶anic verses

The 96th Sura, the first revealed, comes 19 before the end. It consists of 19 verses and

contains a total of 285 letters (19 x 15). The first five verses of the revelation contain 76 (19 x 4)

letters.

The first verses of the 68th Sura, the second to be revealed, consist of 38 (19 x 2) words.

The third revelation, the 73rd Sura, contains 57 (19 x 3) words.

HALLEY¶S COMET AND 76 YEARS

One of the greatest developments in modern astronomy is the discovery of Halley¶s Comet. The18th-century scientist Edmund Halley discovered that the comet comes around every 76 years.

With that discovery, Halley established that comets have astronomical orbits.

The name ³Halley´ by which the comet is known, appears in a most striking way in verse 76 of Surat al-An¶am in the Qur¶an:

When night covered him he saw a star and said, µThis is my Lord!¶ Then when it set he

said, ³I do not love what sets.´ (Sura An¶am, 76)

SAND DUNES AND THE PLANET MARS

The word ³Ahqaf,´ one of the Surah of the Qur¶an, literally means ³sand dunes.´ In astronomy,

one of the first characteristics that come to mind when the planet Mars is mentioned is the giantcollections of sand, or giant ³sand dunes´ on its surface. These make Mars different to the other

planets.

An examination of the sequence of letters in verse 23 of Surat al-Ahqaf shows that the Arabicletters M im, Al i f , Ra and S in appears side by side to make the word Mars.

The way these letters appear in Surat al-Ahqaf, a word meaning ³sand dunes,´ one of the moststriking features of the planet Mars, is highly noteworthy. In it addition, it is not just Mars that

appears in this Surah, but also its satellite ³Deimos.´ The letters that make up the name of ³Deimos,´ which orbits Mars, appear side by side in verse 30 of Surat al-Ahqaf. These things are

all examples of the infinite knowledge and wisdom our Lord, He who is unfettered by time,manifests in the Qur¶an.

DNA AND THE BEGINNING OF GENETIC HISTORY

The term DNA is an abbreviation of the genetic material in living things. The beginning of thescience of genetics dates back to genetic laws drawn up by the scientist Mendel in 1865. The

date, a turning point in the history of science, is referred to in verse 65 of Surat al-Kahf, or verse

18:65.

When the appearance of the letters D-N-A (Dal-Nun-Alif in Arabic) side by side in places in theQur¶an is examined, they appear most frequently in verse 65 of Surat al-Kahf. The letters D-N-

A appear side by side three times in this verse, in a most incomparable manner. In no other verseof the Qur¶an do the letters ³DNA´ appear consecutively so often.

The number of this exceptional verse in which the term DNA appears so strikingly is 18:65.

These numbers are an expression of the date when the science of genetics began. This cannot be

regarded as a coincidence. Because only in verse 18:65 of the Qur¶an do the letters ³DNA´appear three times consecutively. This is something miraculous, because the scientific worldonly came up with the name DNA (Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid) comparatively recently.

In Surat al-Kahf, which refers to DNA and the year 1865 when the science of genetics began,

DNA is repeated 7 times, as is RNA (the Arabic letters Ra-Nun-Alif). Like DNA, the RNAmolecule is a molecule giving rise to genetic structure. For that reason, the appearance of DNA

and RNA an equal number of times in this Surat is further proof that these molecules werereferred to in the Qur¶an hundreds of years ago. (Allah knows the truth.)

QUANTUM PHYSICSAt the time of the revelation of the Qur¶an, quantum physics and atomic sub-articles were

unknown. But in terms of both the facts indicated by and the sequences of letters within theQur¶an, it contains indications of all past and future sciences. Another example of this can be

seen in verses 37 and 39 of Surat al-Kahf, in which the names and weights of these fundamental particles are indicated in a miraculous manner. (Allah knows the truth.)





We tried, as usual, to travel to heaven in search of news but found it f illed with f ierce

guards and meteors. (Surat al-Jinn,

The ³guards´ in the sky is highly compatible with the ozone layer of the atmosphere. Because itis the protective layer in the sky, keeping harmful rays away from the Earth.

The appearance side by side of the letters that comprise the world ozone, and in the above versethat refers to the ³protective´ nature of the sky, cannot be explained by chance. This is a miracle

created in the Qur¶an by our Lord.

UNDERGROUND ENERGY RESOURCES: PETROL

Petrol, the one of the most important sources of energy, was first referred to by that name in a

book titled De Re M etall ica (On the Nature of Minerals), published in 1556 by the GermanGeorgius Agricola. There are also important references to this important energy resource, named

only many hundreds of years later, in the Qur¶an. (Allah knows the truth.)

The letters that comprise the word ³petrol´ appear side by side in only one verse of the Qur¶an.The Arabic words ³ fee t hul umat i al-ard i´ in verse 59 of Surat al-An¶am, meaning ³the darkness

of the earth,´ appear in the same verse and suggest the subterranean formation of petrol.

«. He knows everything in the land and sea. No leaf f alls without His knowing it. There is

no seed in the darkness of the earth, and nothing moist or dry which is not in a Clear Book.

(Surat al-An¶am, 59)

The word petrol, which began being used hundreds of years after the revelation of the Qur¶an, is

written or read pretty much the same in different languages, such as Turkish, English andArabic«



* T here is no letter ³P ́ in Arabic, t he letter ³Be´ bein g used a s it s equivalent .

When scientists describe how petrol is formed, they refer to it emerging after a long period of time from plant and animal remains. Another verse of the Qur¶an that suggests this reads:

He Who brings forth green pasture, then mak es it black ened stubble. (Surat al-A¶la, 4-5)

(For a more detailed account, see Harun Yahya, Allah¶s M iracle s in t he Qur ¶ an, Vol. 1, 8th

edition, July 2006)

THE RETINA: THE LAYER OF THE EYE

The retina is a layer of the eye that contains cells that allow us to see. At the time of the

revelation of the Qur¶an, this layer that made sight possible was unknown and the term retinawas not in use. Yet the letters that comprise the word ³retina´ appear side by side in only one

place in the Qur¶an, in verse 8 of Surah Fatir. This verse also refers to ³seeing,´ for which reasonthere is a strong possibility that it refers to the retina. (Allah knows the truth.)

And what of him the evil of whose actions seem f ine to him so that he sees them as good?

Allah misguides whoever He wills and guides whoever He wills. So do not let yourself waste

away out of regret for them. Allah knows what they do« (Surah Fatir,

* T he Arabic al phabet consist s of consonant s alone. T he letter al i f is used to in fl uence t he way

word s are read .

This verse, which contains the word ³retina´ that makes sight possible, refers to the Arabic verb³raa,´ meaning ³to see.´ Verse 19 contains the sentence ³The blind and seeing are not the

same.´ Damage to the retina can lead to permanent blindness. Verse 20 refers to ³nor are



darkness and light.´ That term is highly significant in terms of the formation of the retina¶slight-sensitive calls. All these terms regarding sight are very rare in the Qur¶an. The fact that the

word ³retina´ appears only in these verses out of thousands, is another of Allah¶s miracles in theQur¶an.
