Today I'd like to mention that surprisingly the antonym of each of these words is mentioned the exact same times in the Quran. These are not my findings, I did not go through the Quran counting how many times these words were mentioned, but some Muslim scholars did. Relatively recently, there have been studies and research done on the subject of the numerical miracles of the Quran. The focus was on the balance of occurrence or the indicative number of repetition of some words and principals, the outcome was astonishing, adding another dimension of fascination to this great holy book. Let's see:
-The word "death" is mentioned 145 times/the word "life" is mentioned 145 times.
-The word "after life" is mentioned 115 times/the word "this life" is mentioned 115 times.
-The word "angles" is mentioned 88 times/the word "Devils" is mentioned 88 times.
-The word "men" is mentioned 24 times/the word "women" is mentioned 24 times.
-The word "benefit" is mentioned 50 times/the word "corruption" is mentioned 50 times.
-The word "mind" is mentioned 49 times/the word "light" is mentioned 49 times.
-The word "hardship" is mentioned 114 times/the word "patience" is mentioned 114 times.
-The word "month" is mentioned 12 times.The word "day" is mentioned 365 times.
-And my favorite: The word "land" is mentioned 13 times/the word "sea" is mentioned 32 times. If we add them up we get 45, and with the following simple calculations you have:32/45 X 100% = 71.11111111%13/45 X 100% = 28.88888888%. Look familiar?! These are the percentages of land and water on this planet as we know them today!!
The holy Quran is not a book of science, and it has nothing to prove in the scientific field, It's a holy book revealed by Allah to guide humanity. It's a book of prayers and morals. It's not a book of equations and numbers, yet the numerical and scientific bases of the Quran prove that it's the word of Allah not the word of the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). There were no science courses where he could learn the percentages of land and water on this planet!! - (Kuwait Times, 5 Oct 07)
