The Quran’s Miraculous 19-based Mathematical Structure

The Quran’s Miraculous 19-based Mathematical Structure

Salaamun alaykum, dear readers!

The Quran states in verses 74:30-31 that there are 19 angels who are keepers or custodians of the Hellfire, and that their number (the number 19) is destined to someday, somehow serve as a trial for the disbelievers, as well as a tool for the People of the Book (Jews and Christians) to attain certainty and remove doubt from their hearts, and a tool to increase the faith of those who are already believers.

The only way that the number 19 can possibly do all those things is if it confirms the authenticity of the Quran, beyond all doubt, thus causing an increase in the faith and the certainty of Jews, Christians, and Muslims.

[74:30] Over it (the Fire) are nineteen.

[74:31] We have made not but angels as custodians of
the Fire, and We have not assigned “iddatahum” (their number, i.e. the number 19) except as: (1) a trial for those who have disbelieved, (2) so that those who were given the Book may attain certainty, (3) and that those who believed may increase in faith, (4) and that those given the Book—as well as the believers—may not doubt, (5) and that the ones who have sickness within their hearts—as well as the disbelievers—may say, “What did God intend with this example?” Like that, God sends astray whom He wills, and guides whom He wills; none knows the soldiers of your Lord except He. It is but a reminder for humanity.

When verse 74:31 states that the number of the angels guarding over Hell will somehow bring certainty, erase doubt, and increase the faith of people, it’s saying that the number 19 itself somehow will do those things.

  • That is because the verse 74:31 said, “their number” (the number of angels over Hell) will increase faith and certainty, and remove doubt one day. And “their number” is the number 19.

Therefore, we can effectively call this Qur’anic prophecy the “prophecy of 19”.

So how will the number 19 fulfill this prophecy and confirm the authenticity of the Quran?

  • Logically, the only way this number confirms the Quran’s authenticity beyond a doubt is if the number 19 gives the Quran some kind of intrinsic, miraculous, mathematical property that prophet Muhammad could not have accidentally created if he were the one who fabricated the Quran, proving that the Quran really did come from God.
  • This is especially true considering that the Arabic word “bayyinah” (the clear proof) is listed as one of the attributes of the Quran in many verses, such as verse 98:1-2 for example, as if to indicate that the Quran itself contains clear evidence of its own authenticity and divine origin.

The Quran’s Real Challenge to Humanity

Effectively, the way that the number 19 will confirm the Quran’s authenticity beyond all doubts was discovered in 1974. In 1974, Dr. Rashad Khalifa, an Egyptian-American biochemist, discovered that the entire Quran is mathematically composed based on the number 19.

The prophet Muhammad never knew a single thing about the number 19, despite the number 19 being mentioned in the Quran as the thing that will one day confirm Islam beyond all doubts in verse 74:31.

So if you believe Muhammad to be a liar, then here is the challenge for you:

  • Pick a random number (such as the number 7, or the number 15).
  • Use that number to produce any book you want that contains a complex and intricate mathematical system based on that number, without even trying to do it, or without being aware of any mathematical composition. No computers, no calculators, no intention, nothing.
  • That’s because neither prophet Muhammad nor his companions were aware of anything involving the number 19. So even if you believe he fabricated the Quran, we can all agree that he certainly wasn’t consciously trying to produce a mathematically structured book.
  • Therefore, if you can replicate the same phenomenon and produce a book with a complex mathematical structure based on a random number, without consciously trying to do so, then you have successfully answered the Quran’s challenge.
  • And as an added bonus, make sure to find a way to incorporate a prophecy of that random number you chose into your book.

Many people think the Quran’s challenge is to produce a book with the same or even better literary quality as the Quran. But if that were the real challenge, it would be an unfalsifiable one because what counts as a “high literary excellence” varies from person to person.

  • For example, some people love fiction literature, and some people love non-fiction literature. Some hate Shakespearean literature, and some love it.
  • Many people (such as Anis Shorrosh and Taha Hussein) have claimed to produce a book with better literary quality than the Quran, but what are the objective criteria to judge that? The Quran’s challenge has to be falsifiable, or else it is not even a real challenge.

The Seven Anomalous Elements of the Quran

When we study the Quran, we find seven strange or unusual literary components of the Quran. We can call those things the “seven anomalous elements of the Quran“. These seven anomalous elements are:

  • The missing Bismillah of Surah 9
  • The extra Bismillah of Surah 27
  • The starting Bismillah of Surah 1 being assigned a verse number (all the other starting Bismillah are “verse 0” or “unnumbered)
  • The 29 Surahs with Quranic initials.
  • The 19 Surahs with standalone Quranic initials.
  • Surah 42 being the only Surah with two sets of standalone Quranic initials.
  • The Surah numbers and the verse numbers of the Quran, compiled out of their chronological order of revelation.

The reason why these seven elements can be classified as anomalous is because the decision-making process behind their creation used to be unknown. They serve no literary purpose in the Quran.

  • For example, what do the Quranic initials mean and why were some Surahs initialed but not others?
  • Why was Surah 1’s starting Bismillah numbered but the rest are unnumbered? Why is only Surah 9 missing a starting Bismillah?
  • Why does Surah 27 have an extra Bismillah as if to compensate for Surah 9’s missing Bismillah?
  • Why do some Surahs have standalone Quranic initials and others don’t?
  • Why is Surah 42 the only one break the pattern by having two sets of standalone Quranic initials instead of only one set?

Given that a 19-based structure exists in the Quran, and these 7 anomalous aspects serve zero literary function in the Quran, we can reasonably assume that their function is purely mathematical.

Set Theory

Set theory is actually the foundation of the Quran’s 19-based mathematical structure. For those who are unfamiliar with set theory, here is a breakdown:

  • There is the universal set U. In the mathematical structure, set U is the whole Quran.
  • There is set A and set B, which are two distinct datasets that are part of the universal set U.
  • One set operation is “A complement“, which is mathematically written as A’. This means all data-points in set U that are not in set A. This is a common set operation in the 19-based structure.
  • Another set operation is A U B, which means “A union B”. This means combining two datasets (such as Set A and B) into a single set C. This is the most common set operation that occurs in the Quran’s 19-based structure.
  • Another set operation is A ∩ B, which means “A intersection B”. This means all data-points that set A and set B have in common. This set operation remains unexplored.
  • Another very common set operation in the 19-based structure is A ⊆ B, which means that set A is part of set B.

Case Study

Verses 29:14 and 18:25 are a case study from the text of the Quran itself that actually show us what the Quran’s 19-based mathematical structure looks like.

  • [18:25] And they remained in their cave for 300 years, and added 9.
  • [29:14] And certainly, We definitely sent Noah to his people, then he remained amongst them 1000 years, except 50 years. Then the flood seized them, while they were wrongdoers.

These two verses provide a very good case study which shows that God (or whoever you think the author of the Quran is) is deliberately editing the Quran to incorporate a 19-based mathematical structure.

  • Verse 18:25 says that the sleepers remained in the cave for “300 + 9 years.” Verse 29:14 says Noah stayed amongst his people for “1000 – 50 years”.
  • Why use this kind of cryptic phrasing, instead of simply saying “950 years” or “309 years”? From a literary perspective, there is no reason not to do that.

It turns out that verse 18:25 is the only verse in the Quran where the number 300 occurs. And verse 29:14 is the only verse in the Quran where the number 50 occurs.

Also, it happens to be the case that if you add up all 30 integers that occur in the Quran (including the numbers 300 and 50), the result is 162146 (19 x 8534). There would not be a multiple of 19 if either “309” or “950” was mentioned in the Quran instead of “300 + 9” and “1000 – 50”.

  • From this, we can infer that part of the mathematical structure involves adding together the numbers that make up the Quran’s structure (such as the Surah numbers and verse numbers, and the digits that make up the Surah and verse numbers) to produce multiples of 19.

Additionally, there are 30 whole numbers mentioned in the Quran, and 8 fractions. That means there are 38 (19 x 2) unique quantities mentioned in the Quran.

  • From this, we can infer that part of the Quran’s mathematical structure involves multiples of 19 from individual quantities or amounts that make up the Quran’s structure (such as the number of Surahs, the number of verses, the number of certain words, etc.).

Lastly, when we add 162146 (the sum of all unique numbers mentioned in the Quran’s verses) + 38 (the amount of unique quantities mentioned in the Quran) we get 162184 = 19 x 8536.

  • From this, we can infer that adding quantities (such as the number of Quranic verses) with the sum of numbers (such as the sum of Surah numbers and sum of verse numbers) is a common mathematical operation in the Quran’s 19-based structure.

For example, the number of Surahs (a quantity) in the Quran is 114, and the number of verses (a quantity) is 6234. These two values are quantities because they tell us how much of something is in the Quran.

Also, the sum of all Surah numbers is 6555, and the sum of all verse numbers is 333410. These two values are not quantities, because they are not indicating to us how much of something is in the Quran. They are just obtained by adding distinct numbers together.

  • When you add all four values (114 + 6234 + 6555 + 333410) together, the result is 346313 (19 x 18227).
  • If you repeat the same calculation but for all Surahs and verses in between the missing and the extra Bismillahs, the result is 19 + 1951 + 342 + 117673 = 119985 (19 x 6315).

So this case study allows us to learn the valid mathematical operations that can be used to uncover the Quran’s 19-based mathematical structure.

Mathematical Composition of the Quran’s Bismillahs

To begin with, the Bismillah is a phrase in the Quran that says, in Arabic, “Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Raheem“. It means, “In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful“.

The Bismillah verse 1 of the first Surah (al-Fatiha), and verse 0 (also known as an unnumbered verse) in all the other Surahs. The Bismillah is absent from Surah 9 entirely. There is an extra Bismillah in verse 27:30 to make up for the absent Bismillah in Surah 9.

In all, there are 112 “verse 0” (unnumbered) Bismillahs, and two numbered Bismillahs (verse 1:1 and 27:30) in the Quran, and one Bismillah entirely missing from Surah 9, making the total number of Bismillahs to be 114 (19 x 6).

This peculiar literary arrangement is crucial to the 19-based mathematical composition, as shown below. I will explain later why I put asterisks (**) on certain bullet points:

  • There are 19 letters in the Bismillah.
  • There are 19 Surahs from the missing Bismillah in Surah 9 to the extra one found in Surah 27. Of course, the sum of any 19 consecutive integers is a multiple of 19, hence the sum of these Surah numbers is 342 (19 x 18).
  • **There are four words in the Bismillah, and they are: Bism (In the name), Allah (God), Al-Rahman (the Gracious), Al-Raheem (the Merciful). The word Rahman occurs 57 (19 x 3) times in the Quran, and the word Raheem occurs 114 (19 x 6) times in the Quran. This accounts for 2 out of 4 words of the Bismillah.
  • **The remaining 2 words of the Bismillah are Bism and Allah. Both contractions have an inverse relationship. Bism is a contraction involving the root word Ism and the preposition bi. The contraction form (Bism) occurs 3 times, and the root word (Ism) occurs 19 times. But on the other hand, Allah is a contraction involving the root word “ilaah” and the definite article “al-“, and the opposite occurs: the contraction Allah occurs 2698 times (19 x 142) but the root word “ilaah” is not a multiple of 19.
  • **If we add the factors of the 19 occurrences of Ism, Allah, Rahman, and Raheem together (1, 142, 3, and 6 respectively) in the Quran, the result is 152 (19 x 8).
  • **The four words (Ism, Allah, Rahman, Raheem) occur 1938 (19 x 102) times from the first “numbered” Bismillah in the Quran (verse 1:1) to verse 27:29 (the verse right before the second “numbered” Bismillah in verse 27:30). And it occurs 950 (19 x 50) times from the Bismillah in verse 27:30 to the end of the Quran.
  • **In all, the four words (Ism, Allah, Rahman, Raheem) occur 2888 (19 x 19 x 8) times.

Other Facts of the Mathematical Structure

The following related fact are about the number of verses and the sum of the verse numbers.

  • Rule 1: Add the sum of the verse numbers + the number of verses.
  • **Fact 1: Apply Rule 1 to the Quran, the total is 339644 (19 x 17876).
  • **Fact 2: Repeat Rule 1 for the verses in between the missing Bismillah and the extra Bismillah, the result is 119624, or 19 x 6296.
  • Fact 3: Repeat Rule 1 for the verses outside the “missing Bismillah to extra Bismillah” section (verses 1:1 to 8:75, and verses 27:30 to 114:6), the result is 220,020 (19 x 11580).
  • Fact 4: Repeat Rule 1 for all Surahs whose number of verses is a multiple of 19 (Surahs 47, 82, 87, and 96), the result is 1406 (19 x 74).
  • **Fact 5: Repeat Rule 1 for all Surahs except any Surah whose number of verses is a multiple of 19 is 339644 – 1406 = 338238 (19 x 17802).
  • Side note: Just to clarify the methodology, whenever a calculation is done “in between” the missing Bismillah to the extra Bismillah, that means all verses from verse 9:1 to verse 27:29. Verse 9:1 comes after the missing Bismillah, and verse 27:29 comes before the extra Bismillah, hence these two endpoints occur in between the missing and the extra Bismillahs.

The following facts are about the number of verses, sum of the verse numbers, and sum of the Surah numbers of the Quran.

  • Rule 1: The Surah numbers + the number of verses + the sum of the verse numbers.
  • **Fact 1: Apply Rule 1 to the whole Quran, the total is 346199 = 19 x 19 x 959.
  • **Fact 2: Repeat Rule 1 for all verses in between the missing Bismillah at Surah 9 and the extra Bismillah verse 27:30, the total is 119966 (19 x 6314).
  • **Fact 3: Repeat Rule 1 but only for all Surahs from the missing Bismillah of Surah 9 to verse 74:30 (where the number 19 is mentioned), the total is 207670 (19 x 10930).
  • Fact 4: Repeat Rule 1 but only for the Surahs containing letters known as “Quranic initials” separately, the total is 190133 = 19 x 10007.
  • **Fact 5: Repeat Rule 1 but only for the uninitialed Surahs, the total is 156066 (19 x 8214)
  • **Fact 6: Repeat Rule 1, but only for all un-initialed Surahs from the missing Bismillah of Surah 9 to the end of the Quran, the total is 116090 (19 x 6110)
  • Fact 7: Repeat Rule 1 but for all un-initialed Surahs before the missing Bismillah of Surah 9 (which means Surahs 1, 4, 5, 6, and 8), the result is 39976 (19 x 2104).
  • **Fact 8: Repeat Rule 1 with Fact 1’s dataset, but exclude all un-initialed Surahs that come before the missing Bismillah (meaning exclude Surahs 1, 4, 5, 6, and 8), the result is 306223 (19 x 16117)
  • Fact 9: Repeat Rule 1 with Fact 1’s dataset, but exclude all un-initialed Surahs from the missing Bismillah to the end of the Quran. The result is 230109 (19 x 12111).
  • **Fact 10: When you repeat Rule 1, but only from verses 2:1 (the verse with the first Quranic initial) to 68:1 (the verse with the last Quranic initial), the result is 324862 (19 x 17098).

Let’s look at some other simple facts.

  • It is known that the sum of all 30 integers mentioned in the Quran is a multiple of 19. In addition to the integers, there are 8 unique fractions in the Qur’an. In all, there are 38 (19 x 2) individual quantities (both integers and fractions) mentioned in the Quran.
  • There are 114 (19 x 6) Surahs in the Quran.
  • The word Allah occurs in the Quran 2698 times, which is 19 x 142 as it was already mentioned. However, the sum of the verse numbers where “Allah” is found happens to be 118123 (19 x 6217).** The word Allah is important because it is the most important word of the Bismillah. The Bismillah is involved in 3 out of 7 pillars of the 19-based mathematical structure.
  • The total occurrences of the word “Allah” in all verses whose numbers are a multiple of 19 are 133 (19 x 7). The sum of the verse numbers are 6574 (19 x 346).
  • **The total occurrences of the word Allah in the verses whose numbers are not multiples of 19 are 2565 (19 x 135). The sum of the verse numbers is 111549 (19 x 19 x 309).**
  • **There are 85 Surahs where the word Allah occurs. When the numbers of all 85 Surahs are added, plus the amount of verses from the first verse to the last verse that “Allah” occurs in each of those Surahs, the result is 8170 (19 x 430).
  • **When you add all the Surah numbers of all 85 Surahs where the word “Allah” occurs, plus the number of verses from the beginning of those Surahs to the final verse where the word “Allah” occurs, the result is 9101 (19 x 479).
  • **From verse 2:1 (the verse with the first Qur’anic initial) to 68:1 (the verse with the final Qur’anic initial) there are 2641 occurrences of the word Allah, or 19 x 139.
  • The number of occurrences of the word “Allah” before the first Quranic initial in verse 2:1, and after the last Quranic initial verse 68:1, is 57 = 19 x 3. If we add the Surah and verse numbers of the 57 occurrences of the word Allah outside the initialed section, we find the total is 2432 = 19 x 128.
  • The Quranic Shahadah (testimony of faith) is, “There is no God but He,” according to verse 3:18. That is the first pillar of Islam. The Arabic is “Laa ilaha illaa hu“. This phrase occurs 29 times in 19 Surahs. Add the sum of the Surah numbers (507), the sum of the verse numbers where the Shahadah occurs (1592), and the frequency of occurrence of the Shahadah (29), and the sum is 2128 (19 x 112).**
  • The sum of all Surah and verse numbers that range from the first occurrence of the Shahadah to the last occurrence of the Shahadah is 316502 (19 x 16658).**
  • **The Shahadah occurs in 7 verses in between the missing and the extra Bismillahs. Adding the verse numbers of these 7 verses together yields 323 (19 x 17).
  • The word “waahid” means “one” in Arabic. It has a gematric value of 19. Additionally, there are 25 occurrences of this word in total in the Quran, and 19 occurrences of the word “waahid (one)” are about God’s oneness in the Quran.
  • If you add the Surah and verse numbers (without repetition) of the word Quran, in all its grammatical forms, the result is 4408 (19 x 232). We exclude verses 10:15 and 13:31 (which refers to “another Quran”) and 41:44 (which refers to a hypothetical non-Arabic Quran), hence we only included the word Quran when it refers to the one that actually exists.
  • There are 12 Surahs in the Qur’an whose Surah number and number of verses, when added together, makes a multiple of 19. Like for example, Surah 15 is one of those Surahs, and it has 99 verses, and 15 + 99 is 114 (19 x 6). The number 6 is the multiplication factor for Surah 15. When you add up the multiplication factors for all 12 Surahs, the total is 76 (19 x 4).
  • The cumulative value (CV) of a Surah is the sum of its Surah number and all Surah numbers before it. For example, the CV of Surah 1 is 1. For Surah 2, the CV is 3 (since you’re adding Surah 1 + Surah 2). For Surah 3 it’s 6 (2 + 1 + 3). If you add the CV of the 29 Surahs that contain a Qur’anic initial, together, you will get 15675 (19 x 825).
  • The CV of the 85 Surahs that do not contain a Qur’anic initial is 237785 (19 x 12515).
  • **For each Surah, multiply the Surah number with the verse number, then multiply that product with the sum of the Surah and verse number. For example, Surah 1 has 7 verses, so you do 1 x 7 x (7+1) = 56. Do this for the rest of the Surahs and add all products together, the grand total is 25,345,582 (19 × 1,333,978).
  • From Surah 2 (the Surah with the first Quranic initial) to Surah 68 (the Surah with the last Quranic initial), there are 19 alternating sets of initialed and non-initialed Surahs.
  • Within the 114 Surahs of the Quran, 29 of them begin with Quranic initials. Intermixed between the first initialed Surah (Surah 2) and the last initialed Surah (Surah 68) are 38 non-initialed Surahs = 19 x 2.
  • The cumulative value (CV) of a Surah is the sum of its Surah number and all Surah numbers before it. For example, the CV of Surah 1 is 1. For Surah 2, the CV is 3 (since you’re adding Surah 1 + Surah 2). For Surah 3 it’s 6 (2 + 1 + 3).
    • If you add the CV of all initialed Surahs together, you will get 15675 (19 x 825).

The following facts involve Surahs 47, 82, 87, and 96, the only four Surahs whose number of verses are a multiple of 19 (having 38, 19, 19, and 19 verses respectively):

  • Fact 1: The only four Surahs whose verse numbers are multiple of 19 are: Surahs 47, 82, 87, and 96. They have 38, 19, 19, and 19 verses respectively. Add the Surah numbers, plus the number of times the word “Allah” occurs in those Surahs (30), and the result is 342 (19 x 18).
  • Fact 2: Add the sum of the verse numbers, and the number of verses to the result from Fact 1, and the new result becomes 1748 (19 x 92).
  • **Fact 3: Add the sum of the verse numbers, the number of verses, the sum of the Surah numbers, and the number of times the word Allah occurs for the whole Quran. The result is 348897 (19 x 18363).
  • **Fact 4: Repeat Fact 3’s calculation but for all Surahs except 47, 82, 87, and 96, and the result is 347149 (19 x 18271).
  • **Fact 5: Repeat Fact 3’s calculation for verses from verse 2:1 (where the first Quranic initial is) to verse 68:1 (where the last Quranic initial is), the result is 327503 (19 x 17237).
  • Fact 6: The cumulative sum of number 47 is (1 + 2 + 3 + 4. ..+ 47), which is 1128. The same rule creates the cumulative sums of the number 82, 87, and 96. All four cumulative sums make a total of 13015 (19 x 685).
  • Fact 7: **The cumulative sum of the number of verses is like this: Surah 1 has 7 verses, Surah 2 has 286 verses, and so on. The cumulative sum of the number of verses of Surah 2 is (286 + 7 = 293). The cumulative sum of number of verses of Surah 3 is (7 + 286 + 200 = 493) because you add the number of verses of the current Surah and the number of verses of all Surahs before it. When you add the cumulative sum of number of verses of Surahs 47, 82, 87, and 96, the total is: 22515 (19 x 1185)
  • Fact 8: **The cumulative sum of the cumulative sums of verse numbers is like this: Surah 1 has a cumulative sum of verse numbers of 28. Surah 2 has a cumulative sum of verse numbers of 41041. So the cumulative sum of the cumulative sums of verse numbers of Surah 2 is (28 + 41041 = 41069). In that way, the cumulative sums of the cumulative sums of verse numbers of Surahs 47, 82, 87, and 96 add up to: 1293121 (19 x 68059).
  • **Fact 9: Repeat the rule from Fact 1 (Surah number + number of times the word Allah occurs), but this time use the whole Quran as the dataset. The result is 6555 + 2698 = 9253 (19 x 487).
  • **Fact 10: Repeat Fact 1 and use the whole Quran as the dataset, but exclude Surahs 47, 82, 87, and 96. The result is 8911 (19 x 469).

If you add the Surah number with the number of verses contained in each Surah, there are 57 (19 x 3) odd-numbered sums, and 57 (19 x 3) even-numbered sums.

  • If you add 57 even-numbered sums together, the result is 6234 (which happens to be the total amount of numbered Quranic verses).
  • If you add the 57 odd-numbered sums together, the result is 6555 (19 x 345). The number 6555 also happens to be the sum of all the Surah numbers.

My Own Discoveries

I found that there are 19 Surahs in the Quran which have a standalone Qur’anic initial. That means the first verse of these 19 Surahs contain no true Arabic words, but only a set of Quranic initials, hence these Surahs have what I call “standalone Quranic initials“.

  • Like Surah 2 for example, the first verse (2:1) is just the three Arabic letters Alif, Lam, and Meem. There are zero actual words in verse 2:1, hence the Quranic initial “Alif, Lam, Meem” in this Surah is standalone.
  • Surah 42 is unique even among these 19 Surahs because it is the only one where both the first AND second verse contain a Quranic initial, and no words or sentences. Verse 1 only contains the letters “Ha” and “Meem” and verse 2 only contains the letters Ayn, Seen, and Qaaf, hence there are two sets of standalone Quranic initials in this Surah.

In contrast, there are 10 other Surahs with Quranic initials in their first verse, yet the Quranic initial is placed before the actual words of the first verse of those 10 Surahs. Hence, the Quranic initials in those Surahs are not standalone initials.

This is significant because the consequence of having standalone initials is the creation of new Quranic verses, because these Quranic initials stand alone in their own Quranic verse.

But adding and subtracting verses in the Quran creates potentially devastating ripple effects for the whole 19-based structure, because not only do the amount and the words/letters of these verses matter, but the Surah that these verses get placed in also have a huge impact. So it has to be done carefully or else the 19-based mathematical structure collapses.

  • If all Quranic initials were standalone, most of the mathematical structure collapses.
  • Also, if all the current standalone Quranic initials were non-standalone but instead were placed in the very next verse after it (thus making that next verse the new first verse), most of the structure collapses due to the deletion of 20 verses.
  • If Surah 42 had one set of standalone initials like her 18 other sisters, instead of being the odd one out by having two sets, most of the mathematical structure collapses.

So what I did was add the sum of their verse numbers (148757) + the sum of their Surah numbers (564). The result is: 148757 + 564 = 149321 (19 x 7859).

  • **Additionally, I found that if you add the sum of the Surah numbers (2345) and the sum of the verse numbers (317254) for all verses from verse 2:1 (the Surah with the first Quranic initial) to Surah 68:1 (the Surah with the final Quranic initial), the result is: 2345 + 317254 = 319599 (19 x 16821).
  • **That means, for all verses in this data set aside from the ones that belong to Surahs with standalone Quranic initials, the result is 170278 (19 x 8962).

Here are a series of related facts that I discovered which involves the Surahs with standalone Quranic initials:

  • Rule 1: The digits of the Surah numbers + digits of the corresponding number of verses of each Surah.
  • Fact 1: Apply Rule 1 to all Surahs with a standalone Quranic initial, the result is 323 (19 x 17).
  • Fact 2: Repeat Rule 1 but for the Surahs with standalone Quranic initials whose number of verses are odd numbers, the result is 190 (19 x 10).
  • Fact 3: Repeat Rule 1 but for the Surahs with standalone Quranic initials whose number of verses are even numbers, the result is 133 (19 x 7).
  • **Fact 4: Repeat Rule 1 but for the Surahs that do NOT have a standalone Quranic initial, the total is 1558 (19 x 82).
  • **Fact 5: Repeat Rule 1 the same set of Surahs from Fact 4, but take away from that set the Surahs that possess all of the following qualities: odd number of verses, odd Surah numbers, their number of verses containing 3 digits, and their total number of verses are divisible by 3. The result is 1539 (19 x 81).
  • **Fact 6: Repeat Rule 1 but for all Surahs EXCEPT the ones with standalone Quranic initials whose number of verses are even numbers, the result is 1691 (19 x 89).

The result is 1729 (19 x 91).
  • Fact 10: Repeat Rule 1 with the same set of Surahs from Fact 4, but exclude from this dataset the Surahs that meet the following two criteria: the Surah number is an odd number, and the number of verses is a three-digit odd number. The result is 1520 (19 x 80).

  • **Fact 13: Repeat Rule 1 for all Surahs that do not have a standalone Quranic initial, while excluding from this dataset any Surahs that possess the following qualities: odd number of verses, odd Surah number, its number of verses contains 3 digits, and its total number of verses is a prime number. The result is 1539 (19 x 81).
  • **Fact 14: Repeat Rule 1 with the same set of Surahs as Fact 7, but exclude from that dataset any Surahs that possess the following qualities: odd number of verses, odd Surah number, its number of verses contains 3 digits, and its total number of verses is a prime number. The result is 1729 (19 x 91).
  • ***Fact 15: Repeat Rule 1 with the same set of Surahs as Fact 8, but exclude from that dataset any Surahs that possess the following qualities: odd number of verses, odd Surah number, its number of verses contains 3 digits, and its total number of verses is a prime number. The result is 1653 (19 x 87).
  • Fact 16: Repeat Rule 1 for all Surahs that do not have a standalone Quranic initial, but exclude any odd-numbered Surah with an odd number of verses from the missing Bismillah to the extra Bismillah, the result is 1444 (19 x 19 x 4).

The following related facts involve the number of verses where the four words of the Bismillah (Ism, Allah, Rahman, Raheem) occurs.

  • **Fact 1: The four words occur in 1919 (19 x 101) Quranic verses altogether.

  • Disclaimer: Facts 1-4 were not my discoveries.

Two False Verses

Rashad Khalifa also made the stunning discovery that verses 9:128-129 are actually false verses. These verses are man-made fabrications as proven overwhelmingly by the Quran’s own 19-based system.

It is worth knowing that many Hadith reports indicated that these two verses have very suspicious origins. I discuss that topic in this article: The Story of Verses 9:128-129 – Masjid at-Tajdeed

  • One example is several “authentic” Hadith (Bukhari no. 4364, Muslim no. 1618) saying that Surah 9 was the last complete Surah that was revealed, which means the prophet received the entire Surah all in one revelation. If that was the case, then why are verses 9:128-129 classified as Meccan verses, and the rest of the verses are Medinan, as if to suggest that this Surah was partially revealed?
  • Another example is Zaid ibn. Thabit, who (during the first compilation of the Quran into a book under Caliph Abu Bakr) gathered what he could of the Quran from all available written sources, and even the hearts of men who memorized the Quran, yet did not find verses 9:128-129 with anyone other than Khuzaima ibn. Thabit (Bukhari no. 7191). How did Quran huffaz (memorizers) fail to provide any information about those two verses from their hearts if the Quran was really memorized in full by these men?

But the most conclusive evidence is not the early historical reports; rather, it is the mathematical evidence from the Quran itself, the earliest historical Islamic source, which provides concrete evidence. The Quran’s 19-based structure heavily rejects the inclusion of verses 9:128-129, as if to convey to the public that they are man-made fabrications.

The reason why I put a double asterisk sign (**) on some facts of the 19-based mathematical composition previously in this article is because those facts would not be true if verses 9:128 and 9:129 were added to the calculation.

There are 56 double asterisk signs placed higher up in this article, indicating 56 violations so far to the Qur’an’s 19-based mathematical structure with the addition of verses 9:128-129.

So now, let us examine an additional 112 violations to the 19-based structure caused by these two verses.

  • Altogether, there are at least 168 total violations to the 19-based mathematical structure that are caused by verses 9:128-129.
  • Of course, there may be much more than just 168 violations, but further research is needed to uncover the rest. The original count of violations published in this page before any revisions was somewhere in the 60-70s range, and the number grew to its current amount with further research involving the application of set theory, as well as new discoveries.

The Evidence

The following related facts involve the sum of the Surah numbers and number of verses:

  • Fact 1: Add the Surah numbers and number of verses, do this for all Surahs with 127 verses or less, the result is 10963 (19 x 577).
  • Fact 2: Repeat Fact 1 but for all un-initialed Surah starting from Surah 1 to Surah 9 regardless of how many verses these Surahs have, the sum is 703, 19 x 37.
  • Fact 3: Repeat Fact 1 but for odd-numbered Surahs whose number of verses ends with the digit 9. The total is 646 (19 x 34).
  • Fact 4: Repeat Fact 1 for every odd-numbered Surahs whose number of verses ends with the digit 9 from the missing Bismillah to the extra Bismillah, the result is 114 (19 x 6).
  • Fact 5: Repeat Fact 1, but for all Surahs with 127 verses or less that do NOT obey the rule from Fact 3, the total is 10317 (19 x 543).
  • Fact 6: Repeat Fact 1, but for all Surahs with 127 verses or less that do NOT obey the rule from Fact 4. The result is 10849 (19 x 571)
  • Fact 7: Repeat Fact 1 but for all Surahs which have a total number of verses that is both three-digits long and divisible by 3, the total is 836 (19 x 44).
  • Fact 8: Repeat Fact 1 but only for the Surahs with both digits 1 and 2 in their verse numbers, the total is 1159 (19 x 61).
  • Fact 9: Repeat Fact 1 but only for the Surahs that, when you add up the digits in their Surah and verse numbers, the sum is 19. The grand total will be 1216 (19 x 64).
  • Fact 10: Repeat Fact 1 but for all Surahs that have 7 as the last digit for their number of verses, the total is 798 (19 x 42). 
  • Fact 11: Repeat Fact 1 but for odd-numbered Surahs whose number of verses are also odd, the total is 2774 (19 x 146). All Surahs which obey this rule have 127 or less verses.
  • Fact 12: Repeat Fact 1 using the same set of Surahs as in Fact 11, but exclude any Surah if their number of verses has a digit 9 at the end. The result is 2128 (19 x 112).
  • Fact 13: Repeat Fact 1 using the same set of Surahs as in Fact 11, but exclude any Surah if their number of verses has a digit 9 at the end from the missing Bismillah to the extra Bismillah. That means only exclude Surah 15 with its 99 verses. The result is 2660 (19 x 140).
  • Fact 14: Repeat Fact 1 but for all Surahs with 127 verses or less, but this time excluding all the Surahs from Fact 11, the total is 8189 (19 x 431).
  • Fact 15: Repeat Fact 1 but for odd-numbered Surahs whose number of verses ends with the digit 9 from the extra Bismillah to the rest of the Quran. The total is 532 (19 x 28).
  • Fact 16: Repeat Fact 1 but for all odd numbered surahs whose Surah number is divisible by 3, the number of verses is also divisible by 3, and the number of verses ends with the digit 9. The result is 114 (19 x 6). Note that the same Surah which obeys the rule for Fact 16 is the same Surah that obeys the rule for Fact 4 (Surah 15 with its 99 verses).
  • Fact 17: Repeat Fact 1, but for all Surahs with 127 verses or less, AND does NOT obey the rule from Fact 16 (odd surah number divisible by 3, and the number of verses ends with 9 and is divisible by 3). The result is 10849 (19 x 571)
  • Fact 18: Repeat Fact 1 but for odd-numbered Surahs whose number of verses are also odd, AND those Surahs do not obey the rule from Fact 16. The result is 2660 (19 x 140).
  • Fact 19: Repeat Fact 1 but for all Surahs with 127 verses or less, but EXCLUDING all surahs that obey the following rule: having a digit 9 at the end of their number of verses from the extra Bismillah to the end of the Quran. The result is 10431 (19 x 549)
  • Fact 20: Repeat Fact 1 using the same set of Surahs as Fact 11, but exclude from that set all surahs that have a digit 9 at the end of their number of verses from the extra Bismillah to the end of the Quran. The result is 2242 (19 x 118).
  • Fact 21: Repeat Fact 1 but for the even-numbered Surahs with 127 or less verses, the result is 5320 (19 x 280). 
  • Fact 22: If you repeat Fact 1 but for odd-numbered Surahs with 127 or less verses, the result is 5643 (19 x 297).
  • Fact 23: Repeat Fact 1 using the same set of Surahs as Fact 22, but exclude from that set the odd-numbered Surahs whose number of verses has a digit 9 in the end, the result is 4997 (19 x 263).
  • Fact 24: Repeat Fact 1 using the same set of Surahs as Fact 22, but exclude from that set the odd-numbered Surahs whose number of verses has a digit 9 in the end from the missing Bismillah to the extra Bismillah (meaning exclude Surah 15 only), the result is 5529 (19 x 291).
  • Fact 25: Repeat Fact 1 using the same set of Surahs from Fact 22, but exclude from that set the odd-numbered Surahs whose number of verses ends with the digit 9 from the extra Bismillah to the rest of the Quran, the result is 5111 (19 x 269)
  • Fact 26: Repeat Fact 1 but for all odd-numbered Surahs with 127 verses or less that have an even number of verses, the result is 2869 (19 x 151).
  • Fact 27: Repeat Fact 1 using the same set of Surahs from Fact 22, but exclude from that set any Surah which obeys the following rule: Surah number is divisible by 3, the number of verses is also divisible by 3, and the number of verses ends with the digit 9. That means exclude only Surah 15. The result is 5529 (19 x 291).
  • All of the above facts, except for Facts 14, 15, 21, and 26 would be invalidated if Surah 9 had 129 verses.
  • Side note: Facts 21-27 are new discoveries that I made.

The following related facts involved the digits of the Surahs and verse numbers:

  • Fact 1: Add all the digits of the Surah numbers and verse numbers together, the result is 1881 (19 x 99).
  • Fact 2: Repeat Fact 1 but multiply the sum of the Surah number digits with the sum of the verse number digits, the total is 7771 (19 x 409).
  • Fact 3: Repeat Fact 1 but only for the odd-numbered Surahs, the result is 950 (19 x 50). But incredibly, the sum of the digits of the Surah numbers itself is a multiple of 19 in this case (513 = 19 x 27).
  • Fact 4: Repeat Fact 1 but for the even-numbered Surahs, the result is 931 (19 x 49).
  • Fact 5: Repeat Fact 1 but for all odd Surahs whose number of verses is a prime number, the result is 266 (19 x 14).
  • Fact 6: Repeat Fact 1 but for all Surahs whose Surah numbers are odd, the number of verses are odd, and the number of verses is a three-digit number. The result is 38 (19 x 2).
  • Fact 7: Repeat Fact 1 but for all Surahs that possess the following qualities: odd number of verses, odd Surah numbers, their number of verses containing 3 digits, and their total number of verses are divisible by 3. The result is 19. 
  • Fact 8: Repeat Fact 1 but for all Surahs that possess the following qualities: odd number of verses, odd Surah numbers, their number of verses containing 3 digits, and their total number of verses is a prime number. The result is 19.
  • Fact 9: Repeat Fact 1 but for Surahs which are odd-numbered, whose number of verses are prime numbers that ends with the digit “7,” and the surah number is divisible by 3 and 9. The result is 38 (19 x 2).
  • Fact 10: Repeat Fact 1 but for all Surahs except any odd-numbered Surah whose number of verses is a prime number, the result is 1615 (19 x 85).
  • Fact 11: Repeat Fact 1, but for every Surah which is NOT an odd-numbered Surahs with a three-digit odd number of verses, the result is 1843 (19 x 97).
  • Fact 12: Repeat Fact 1, but for all Surahs that DO NOT possess the following qualities: odd number of verses, odd Surah numbers, their number of verses containing 3 digits, and their total number of verses are divisible by 3. The result is 1862 (19 x 98).
  • Fact 13: Repeat Fact 1 but for all Surahs that DO NOT possess the following qualities: odd number of verses, odd Surah numbers, their number of verses containing 3 digits, and their total number of verses is a prime number. The result is 1862 (19 x 98).
  • Fact 14: Repeat Fact 1 but for all odd-numbered Surahs whose number of verses are also odd from the missing Bismillah to the extra Bismillah, the result is 114 (19 x 6).
  • Fact 15: Repeat Fact 1 but for all the odd numbered Surahs that do not obey the rule from Fact 14, the result is 836 (19 x 44).
  • Fact 16: Repeat Fact 1 but exclude all Surahs that do not obey the rule on Fact 14, the result is 1767 (19 x 93).
  • Fact 17: Repeat Fact 14, but exclude all Surahs whose Surah numbers are odd, and the number of verses are odd, and the number of verses is a three-digit number. Essentially, that means do the same Surahs as in Fact 14, but exclude the Surahs from Fact 6. The result is 76 (19 x 4).
  • Fact 18: Repeat Fact 14 but exclude all Surahs that possess the following qualities: odd number of verses, odd Surah numbers, their number of verses containing 3 digits, and their total number of verses are divisible by 3. The result is 95 (19 x 5).
  • Fact 19: Repeat Fact 14 but exclude all Surahs that possess the following qualities: odd number of verses, odd Surah numbers, their number of verses containing 3 digits, and their total number of verses is a prime number. The result is 95 (19 x 5).
  • Fact 20: Repeat Fact 1 but exclude all Surahs from the missing Bismillah to the extra Bismillah that do NOT possess the following qualities: odd number of verses, odd Surah numbers, their number of verses containing 3 digits, and their total number of verses are divisible by 3. The result is 1786 (19 x 94).
  • Fact 21: Add the digits of the Surah numbers and the digits of the number of verses of the odd-numbered Surahs with odd-numbered verses from the missing Bismillah to the extra Bismillah, the total is 114 (19 x 6). A total of 7 Surahs (Surahs 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 25, and 27) fit this criterion.
  • Fact 22: Repeat Fact 1 for all odd-numbered Surahs except that which possesses all the following qualities: odd number of verses, odd Surah numbers, their number of verses containing 3 digits, and their total number of verses are divisible by 3. The result is 931 (19 x 49).
  • Fact 23: Repeat Fact 1 but exclude the Surahs that possess this characteristic: the sum of the Surah number digits + the sum of the digits of the number of verses = 19. the result is 1691 (19 x 89).
  • Fact 24: Repeat Fact 1, but exclude all Surahs that possess both qualities: sum of the Surah number digits equal 9, and the sum of the verse number digits equal 10. The result is 1805 (19 x 19 x 5).
  • Fact 25: Repeat Fact 1 for all odd-numbered Surahs, excluding any odd-numbered Surah which has a number of verses that is a prime number. The result is 684 (19 x 36).
  • Fact 26: Repeat Fact 1, but only for all Surahs that have a composite number as the Surah number, and a prime number as the verse number. The result is 399 (19 x 21).
  • Fact 27: Repeat Fact 1, but exclude all Surahs that have a composite number as the Surah number, and a prime number as the verse number. The result is 1482 (19 x 78).
  • Fact 28: Repeat Fact 1 only for all Surahs that have a composite number as the Surah number, and a prime number as the verse number. But this time exclude from this dataset all Surahs that have a number of verses that ends with the digit “7,” and the surah number is divisible by 3 and 9. That means only exclude Surah 9 (with its 127 verses) and Surah 45 (with its 37 verses). The result is 361 (19 x 19).
  • All of these facts, except Fact 4, 5, 11, 15, 16, 17, 26, and 28 would be invalidated with the inclusion of verses 9:128-129.

The following series of facts involve the last digits of verse numbers:

  • Fact 1: For all Surahs which consist of 3 digits, add the last digit of their number of verses. The result is 76 (19×4).
  • Fact 2: We copy Fact 1, but for the Surahs with odd number of verses (not even), whose number of verses has 3 digits. The result is 38 (19 x 2).  
  • Fact 3: Repeat Fact 1 but for all Surahs whose number of verses are three-digit even numbers, the result is 38 (19 x 2).
  • All except Fact 3 will be invalidated with the inclusion of verses 9:128-129.

This series of facts involves the addition of the number of verses of the Surahs: 

  • Fact 1: Add the number of verses of odd-numbered Surahs whose number of verses are also odd and are three-digit numbers. The result is 361 (19 x 19). 
  • Fact 2: Add the number of verses for all Surahs whose Surah number digits add up to 9, and digits of the number of verses add up to 10. The total is 247 (19 x 13).
  • Fact 3: Add the number of verses for all Surahs whose number of verses ends with the digit 9, the result is 627 (19 x 33).
  • Fact 4: Add the number of verses for all Surahs having 129 verses or more, the total is 1577 (19 x 83).
  • Fact 5: Add the number of verses for all Surahs with number of verses that begin with the digit 1. The result is 126122 (19 x 6638).
  • Fact 6: Add the number of verses for single-digit Surahs, and their number of verses contain a number 1 and 2. The result is 247 (19 x 13).
  • Fact 7: Add the number of verses for all Surahs whose number of verses begin with the digit 1, except for the single digit Surahs that contain a number 1 and 2 in their number of verses. The result is 125875 (19 x 6625).
  • Fact 8: Add the number of verses for all Surahs whose number of verses begin with the digit 1, except for the odd-numbered Surahs whose number of verses are also odd and are three-digit numbers. The result is 125761 (19 x 6619).
  • Fact 9: Verse 2:1 is the first initialed verse, and verse 68:1 is the final initialed verse of the Quran. The total number of verses from verse 2:1 to 68:1 is 5263 = 19 x 277.
  • Fact 10: Repeat Fact 1 with the same set of verses from Fact 9, but exclude from this set all Surahs from Fact 1, the result is 4902 (19 x 258).
  • Fact 11: Repeat Fact 1 with the same set of verses as Fact 9, but exclude the verses from any Surah whose Surah number digits add up to 9, and the digits of the number of verses adds up to 10. The result is 5016 (19 x 264).
  • Fact 12: Repeat Fact 1 with the same set of verses from Fact 9, but exclude from this set all Surahs having 129 verses or more, the result is 3686 (19 x 194).
  • Fact 13: Repeat Fact 1 with the same set of verses as Fact 9, but exclude from this set the verses from any single-digit Surah whose number of verses contains both a 1 and a 2. The result is 5016 (19 x 264).
  • Fact 14: Add the number of verses of all Surahs whose number of verses ends with the digit 9, ranging from verse 2:1 to 68:1, and the result is 532 (19 x 28).
  • Fact 15: Add the number of verses for all Surahs whose number of verses ends with the digit 9 outside the “verse 2:1 to verse 68:1” range, the result is 95 (19 x 5).
  • All of these facts, except Facts 7, 8, 10, and 15 would be invalidated with the inclusion of verses 9:128-129.

This series of Facts involve adding the digits of the number of verses. 

  • Fact 1: Add the digits of the number of verses of all odd-numbered Surahs, the result is 437 (19 x 23).
  • Fact 2: Repeat Fact 1 but only for the odd-numbered Surahs whose number of verses are odd and three-digit numbers. The result is 19.
  • Fact 3: It thus follows that for odd-numbered Surahs whose number of verses are NOT three-digit odd numbers, the result is 418 (19 x 22).
  • All calculations except Fact 3 would be invalidated with the inclusion of verses 9:128-129.

The following facts involve the last 2 verses of each Surah. 

  • Fact 1: If we take the last two verses of each Surah, and add all of the digits up, the sum would be a multiple of 19. So the last two verses of Surah 2 are verses 285 and 286, and we are adding together 2+8+5+2+8+6. For Surah 1 the last two verses are 6 and 7, so we add 6+7. We do this for all Surahs and the grand total if we add all of these digits up is 1824 (19×96).
  • Fact 2: Copy Fact 1, but for the uninitialed Surahs. And instead of adding the individual digits, we add the verse numbers together. So for Surah 2 we add the last two verses (285+286), Surah 3 we add the last two verses (199+200). We do this for all uninitialed Surahs, and the grand total is 6897 (19 x 363).
  • Fact 3: For each Surah, we will add up the number of times the digit “7” appears in the last two verses of each Surah. So for Surah 2 the last two verses are 285-286, and the digit 7 appears zero times. For Surah 25 the digit 7 in the last two verses (76 and 77) appears three times. We do this for the last two verses of every Surah, and the total is 38 (19 x 2).
  • All three calculations would be invalidated with the inclusion of verses 9:128-129.

The following related facts involves the sum of the surah numbers, the sum of the verse numbers, and the sum of the number of verses.

  • Fact 1: When the Surah numbers, the number of verses, and the sum of the verse numbers of all Surahs whose number of verses end with a digit 9 are added (like Surah 10, which has 109 verses, thus the last digit of the number of verses is 9), the result is 23655 (19 x 1245).
  • Fact 2: Repeat Fact 1 for all Surahs whose number of verses does NOT end with a digit 9, the result is 322544 (19 x 16976).
  • Fact 3: Add the number of verses with the sum of the verse numbers for all Surahs whose number of verses ends with the digit 9 from the missing Bismillah to the extra Bismillah, the result is 11153 (19 x 587).
  • Fact 4: Repeat Fact 3, but for all Surahs from Surah 9 (which contains the missing Bismillah) to Surah 27 (which contains the missing Bismillah) whose number of verses does NOT end with a digit 9, the result is 108471 (19 x 5709).
  • Fact 5: Repeat Fact 3 but for all the Surahs in the Quran, EXCEPT Surahs whose number of verses ends with the digit 9 from the missing BIsmillah to the extra one, the result is 328491 (19 x 17289).
  • Fact 6: Repeat Fact 3, but for all Surahs in the Quran EXCEPT the Surahs that obey the rule from Fact 4, the result is 231,173 (19 x 12167).
  • Fact 7: Add the Surah number and the verse numbers of all Surahs with a digit 9 at the end of its number of verses, the sum is 23028 (19 x 1212).
  • All of the above would be invalidated if Surah 9 had 129 verses.

The following facts involve the quantity of the digits 1, 2, 8, and 9 in the verse numbers.

  • Fact 1: Let’s look at the all the verse numbers in the Quran and find out how many digit “1’s” are there. For example: verse 1, verse 10, verse 11, etc. The grand total is 2546 (19 x 134).  
  • Fact 2: Repeat Fact 1 but for un-initialed Surahs only, the total number of 1’s in the verse numbers is 1406 (19 x 74).
  • Fact 3: Repeat Fact 1 but instead of the digit 1, count the total number of 2’s, 8’s, and 9’s in all the verse numbers, we get 3382 (19 x 178).
  • Fact 4: Add the products for Facts 1 and 3 together. The sum is 5928 (19 x 312). This tells us how many digits 1, 2, 8, and 9 there are in the verse numbers of the whole Quran.
  • All four facts are violated with the inclusion of verses 9:128-129.

Here are a series of related facts:

  • Fact 1: For all Surahs whose Surah number begins with 9, and verse number ends with 9, add the number of verses and sum of the verse numbers. Only one Surah fits this description, Surah 96 with its 19 verses, and its sum of the verse numbers is 190. The result is 190 + 19 = 209 (19 x 11).
  • Fact 2: Repeat Fact 1 but for all Surahs except the one whose Surah number begins with a 9 and number of verses ends with a 9 (Surah 96). The result is 339,435 (19 x 17,865).
  • Fact 3: Repeat Fact 1 for all verses from the missing Bismillah to the extra Bismillah (verse 9:1 to 27:29), but exclude any Surah whose Surah number begins with a 9 and number of verses ends with a 9. No Surah is excluded from this set because no Surah fits this exclusion criterion. The result is 119624 (19 x 6296).
  • All three facts would be invalidated if Surah 9 had 129 verses.
  • If Surah 9 had 129 verses, it would meet the exclusion criterion for Fact 3 and be removed from Fact 3’s calculation, which would cause the result to not be a multiple of 19.

The following related facts involve the count of the word Allah in the Surahs whose number of verses ends with the digits 7 and 9:

  • Fact 1: In all Surahs whose number of verses ends with the digit 7 (Surahs 1, 9, 25, 26, 45, 86, and 107) the word “Allah” occurs in those Surahs 209 (19 x 11) times.
  • Fact 2: In all Surahs whose number of verses does NOT end with the digit 7, the word Allah occurs 2489 (19 x 131).
  • Fact 3: The word “Allah” in all Surahs whose number of verses ends with the digit 9 occurs 190 (19 x 10) times in those Surahs.
  • Fact 4: The count of the word Allah in all Surahs whose number of verses does NOT end with the digit 9 is 2508 (19 x 132).
  • Fact 5: The frequency of the word Allah in all Surahs whose number of verses ends with either 9 OR 7 is 399 (19 x 21).
  • Fact 6: The frequency of the word Allah in all Surahs whose number of verses ends with NEITHER 9 or 7 is 2299 (19 x 121).
  • All Facts, except Fact 6, are invalidated with the inclusion of verses 9:128-129.

Surah 1 is unique because it is the only Surah whose starting Bismillah is a numbered verse. Surah 9 is unique because it is the only Surah whose Bismillah is missing.

  • Fact 1: The gematrical value of the first letter of every Surah from Surah 1 to Surah 9 is 38 (19 x 2). The gematrical value of the last letter of every Surah.
  • Fact 2: The gematrical value of the last letter of every Surah from Surah 1 to Surah 9 is 570 (19 x 30). This assumes Surah 9 has 127 verses and ends with the letter “Noon”.
  • Fact 3: When you add 570 and 38 together, you get 608 (19 x 32).
  • All three calculations are violated with the inclusion of verses 9:128-129.

Here is a series of related facts that I have discovered:

  • Fact 1: Add the Surah numbers and verse numbers for all verses from verse 2:1 (the verse with the first Quranic initial) to 68:1 (the verse with the last Quranic initial) and the result is 319599 (19 x 16821). This was already mentioned previously.
  • Fact 2: Repeat Fact 1 but only for all odd-numbered Surahs with a three-digit odd number of verses, and its number of verses is divisible by 3. Only Surahs 11 (with its 123 verses) and 17 (with its 111 verses) obey this rule. The result is 13870 (19 x 730).
  • Fact 3: Add the Surah numbers and verse numbers for all verses from verse 2:1 (the verse with the first Quranic initial) to 68:1 (the verse with the last Quranic initial), but this time exclude all odd-numbered Surahs with a three-digit odd number of verses, and its number of verses is divisible by 3. The result is 305729 (19 x 16091).
  • Fact 4: The dataset for this verse is all verses ranging from verse 2:1 to verse 68:1 that do not belong to a Surah with a standalone Quranic initial. Repeat Fact 1 using this dataset, but exclude from this set all odd-numbered Surahs with a three-digit odd number of verses, and its number of verses is divisible by 3. The result is 156408 (19 x 8232).
  • All four facts are invalidated with the exclusion of verses 9:128-129.

Surah 9 (having 127 verses) and Surah 96 (having 19 verses) obey the following rule: Surah number is a composite number that starts with 9, and their number of verses are prime numbers whose digits add up to 10.

  • Fact 1: Add the Surah numbers, the number of verses, and the sum of the verse numbers of Surahs 9 and 96 together, the result is 8569 (19 x 451).
  • Fact 2: Repeat Fact 1, but this time the dataset is all Surahs excluding any Surah whose Surah number is a composite number that starts with 9, and their number of verses are prime numbers whose digits add up to 10. The result is 337630 (19 x 17770)
  • Fact 3: Repeat Fact 1, but the dataset this time is all un-initialed Surahs. Excluding from this dataset any Surah whose Surah number is a composite number that starts with 9, and their number of verses are prime numbers whose digits add up to 10. The result is 147497 (19 x 7763).
  • Fact 4: Repeat Fact 1 with the dataset being all un-initialed Surahs from the missing Bismillah to the end of the Quran. Exclude from this dataset any Surah whose Surah number is a composite number that starts with 9, and their number of verses are prime numbers whose digits add up to 10. The result is 107521 (19 x 5659).
  • All four facts are invalidated with the inclusion of verses 9:128-129.

Here are a series of facts involving all Surahs whose Surah number starts with the digit 9, and the number of verses is a composite number (Surahs 90, 91, 92, 94, 95, 98, and 99).

  • Fact 1: Add the Surah numbers, the number of verses, and the sum of the verse numbers of these seven Surahs. The result is 1482 (19 x 78).
  • Fact 2: Repeat Fact 1 for all Surahs of the Quran EXCEPT those seven Surahs, the result is 344717 (19 x 18143).
  • Fact 3: Repeat Fact 1 for all un-initialed Surahs except those seven Surahs, the result is 154584 (19 x 8136).
  • Fact 4: Repeat Fact 1 but for all un-initialed Surahs from the missing Bismillah to the end of the Quran, except those seven Surahs, the result is 114608 (19 x 6032).
  • Fact 5: Repeat Fact 1, but this time only for all Surahs whose Surah number starts with the digit 9, and the number of verses is an odd composite number (only Surahs 91 and 92 obey this rule). The result will be 570 (19 x 30)
  • Fact 6: Repeat Fact 1 but for all Surahs of the Quran except any Surah whose Surah number starts with the digit 9, and the number of verses is an odd composite number (Surahs 91 and 92). The result is 345629 (19 x 18191).
  • Fact 7: Repeat Fact 1 but only for all un-initialed Surahs except any Surah whose Surah number starts with the digit 9, and the number of verses is an odd composite number (Surahs 91 and 92), the result is 155496 (19 x 8184).
  • Fact 8: Repeat Fact 1 but only for all un-initialed Surahs from the missing Bismillah to the end of the Quran, except any Surah whose Surah number starts with the digit 9, and the number of verses is an odd composite number (Surahs 91 and 92), the result is 116090 – 570 = 115520 (19 x 19 x 320)
  • Fact 9: Add the Surah numbers, the number of verses, and the sum of the verse numbers of all Surahs whose Surah number starts with the digit 9, and the number of verses is a composite number (Surahs 90, 94, 95, 98, and 99). The result is 912 (19 x 48).
  • Fact 10: Repeat Fact 1 but for all Surahs of the Quran except any Surah whose Surah number starts with the digit 9, and the number of verses is an even composite number. The result is 345287 (19 x 18173).
  • Fact 11: Repeat Fact 1 but for all un-initialed Surahs, except any Surah whose Surah number starts with the digit 9, and the number of verses is an even composite number (Surahs 90, 94, 95, 98, and 99), the result is 155154 (19 x 8166).
  • Fact 12: Repeat Fact 1 but for all un-initialed Surahs from the missing Bismillah to the end of the Quran, except any Surah whose Surah number starts with the digit 9, and the number of verses is an even composite number (Surahs 90, 94, 95, 98, and 99), the result is 115178 (19 x 6062)
  • All of the above Facts, except Fact 9, will be invalidated with the inclusion of verses 9:128-129.

When the Surah numbers, total number of verses, and the amount of verses whose digits add to 10 in the Surahs ranging from the missing Bismillah to the extra Bismillah are added (Surah 9 to verse 27:29), the total is 2470 (19 x 130), assuming that the two suspect verses are not included. 

For all 9 Surahs that have a 128th verse, multiply 128 x 9 and add the product to the sum of the Surah numbers. The result is 1273 (19 x 67). This assumes Surah 9 does not have a 128th verse.

The total occurrence of the word “Allah” from the beginning of the Quran to the end of Surah 9 is 1273 (19 x 67). If the verse 9:129 is added, it would be 1274, not a multiple of 19.

In Surah 9, the Surah number (9) plus the number of verses (127) plus the number of times the word “Allah” occurs in Surah 9 (168) gives a total of 304 (19 x 16). This would be invalidated only if you include the two false verses.

Only 9 Surahs have 128 or more verses. In these 9 Surahs, there are only 19 verses that are a multiple of 128 or 129. If you add verses 9:128-129, there would be 21 verses, which is not a multiple of 19.

  • Additionally, the sum of the verse numbers of those 19 verses add up to 2698 (19 x 142). This would be invalidated if the two false verses were included in the calculation. 

43 Surahs end with the Arabic letter “Noon”. Add all of their Surah numbers + the number 43, and you get 1919 (19 x 101). If Surah 9 had 129 verses, it would end with the letter “Meem” and there would no longer be a multiple of 19.

Number 19 and the Lunar and Solar Calendars

The Metonic cycle is the phenomenon where every 19 solar years (235 lunar months), the sun, moon and earth return to the same exact position that they are currently in.

In other words, whatever position the Earth, sun, and moon are in right now, they will all come back to this exact position every 19 years.

  • To give an example: If the new moon occurred on February 17th in 2026, then it will once again occur on February 17th in the year 2045, which is 19 years later.

Some lunar calendars rely on this phenomenon to realign their calendars with the solar calendar (hence they are referred to as “lunisolar calendars”).

  • That’s because 19 lunar years is 228 lunar months, but 19 solar years is 235 lunar months. That’s a difference of 7 months.
  • So what lunisolar calendars (such as the Hebrew calendar) do is that within every 19-year interval, seven of those years are selected to include an extra 13th lunar month.
  • Usually, a year has 12 lunar months in a lunisolar calendar, but 7 out of every 19 lunar years are given an extra 13th lunar month, to allow the calendar to align with the solar calendar every 19 years.

The words “sun” and “moon” are mentioned together in the Quran 19 times, likely in reference to the sun and moon realigning every 19 years during the Metonic cycle.

  • Verse 75:9 (the 19th occurrence) mentions the sun and moon “coming together” (crashing into each other) during the end times, which is likely an implicit reference to the Metonic cycle.
  • [75:9] And the sun and the moon have come together.

Apart from number 19, the Qur’an is filled with interesting, well-known numerical phenomena. Number 19 is just the only one that the Quran says will prove it as the truth.

  • You can think of the other, more recognized and discussed signs and patterns in the Quran (like scientifically accurate information found ahead of its time, word symmetries, ring composition in some instances, Muhammad’s victory at the Battle of Badr against all odds, etc.) as strongly hinting toward divine origin without providing definite, 100% conclusive proof.
  • But adding the 19-based structure into the discussion with all the other signs tilts the probability of the Qur’an having divine origin from “high possibility” to “100% certainty“.

One of the well-known numerical patterns in the Qur’an is that the singular form “month” occurs 12 times (representing the 12 individual months that make up a year, both in solar calendars and the lunar calendars).

  • Fact 1: If you add the Surah number, the number of verses, and the sum of the verse numbers for each Surah where the word “shahr” (month) occurs in singular form, the result is 75,468 (19 x 3972). This assumes Surah 9 has 127 verses.
  • Fact 2: Repeat Fact 1 for any Surah that does not contain the singular word “month”, the result is 270,731 (19 x 14249).
  • Fact 3: Add the digits of the Surah numbers and the number of verses for all Surahs where the Arabic word “shahr” (singular form of the word month) and the words “sanah” (singular form of the word year) and “aam” (another singular form of the word year) occurs, the result is 209 (19 x 11).
  • Fact 4: Repeat the same calculation for Fact 3, but this time for all Surahs where neither shahr, sanah, nor aam (the singular forms of the words month and year) occurs, the result is 1672 (19 x 88).

Also, the word “yawm” (day) occurs 365 times in the singular form, which represents the 365 days that make up a solar year.

  • One important finding is that the GV (gematric value) of all grammatical forms of the 365 occurrences of the singular word “day” (yawm) is 22781 (19 x 1199).
  • Additionally, the GV of the first 354 instances of the singular word “yawm” (representing the 354 days that make up a lunar year) is 22103. The ratio of 22781/22103 is 1.0307.
  • The number 1.0307 is the currently recognized ratio between the solar year and the lunar year as established by science.
  • Surah 74 is the one where we learn about the prophecy of 19, and verse 74:46 contains the 333rd word “day” (out of the 365 occurrences of the singular word day). The GV of the first 333 occurrences is 20862 (19 x 1098).
  • The number 19 occurs in 13 verses where the singular word “day” occurs, either as a Surah number or a verse number. The word “day” in these 13 verses occurs 19 times.

All grammatical forms and derivatives of the word “day” (365 singular, 30 plural, 70 time adverbs, 10 possessive forms) occur 475 (19 x 25) times.

  • All of these 475 words occur in 423 (19 x 23) verses.
  • The word sun occurs 33 times in the Quran. It is noteworthy that the solar (Gregorian) and lunar (Islamic) calendars reunite every 33 years. For example, if it was Ramadan on February 17 this year, it will take 33 years for Ramadan to occur on February 17 again.
  • During those 33 years, the sun rotates 475 times on its own axis (known as a Carrington rotation), which means if you were standing on the sun, you would experience 475 “days” in 33 solar years.
  • It is worth noting that the 30 occurrences of the plural word “days” (ayyam) likely represents the fact that the average length of each months is 30 days.

Lastly, here is a series of related facts that I discovered:

  • Fact 1: Add the number of verses and the sum of the verse numbers of all Surahs where any grammatical form of the word “day” occurs (singular, plural, possessive, and time adverb). The result is 330182 (19 x 17378). This would be invalidated if Surah 9 had 129 verses.
  • Fact 2: Repeat Fact 1 for all Surahs that do not contain any version of the word “day”, the result is 9462 (19 x 498).
  • Fact 3: You would obtain the same result as Fact 1 if you only focused on the Surahs containing the 365 singular forms of the word “day”.
  • Fact 4: You would obtain the same result as Fact 2 if you only include the Surahs that do not contain any of the 365 singular forms of the word day.

So we have learned that the Metonic cycle and the solar and lunar calendars are represented in the Qur’an, and all are connected back to the Qur’an’s 19-based mathematical structure in some way.

As a side note, the average pregnancy is 266 (19 x 14) days.

  • The 266th overall occurrence of the word “day” (whether singular, plural, possessive, or time adverb) is verse 43:65. That happens to be the 247th occurrence of the singular word “day” amongst all 365 occurrences, and 247 = 19 x 13.
  • The GV of all 266 occurrences of the word “day” in all grammatical forms (singular and plural) up to verse 43:65 is 16644 = 19 x 876.

The Written Quranic Text Is Revelation Too

Some Muslims may say “The omissions of the letter Alif that we see throughout the Quran in the Bismillah is just a man-made product of the Uthmanic style of writing. It was not something that God ordered or commanded. Muhammad was only given an oral Quran, not a written Quran. So we do not really know how the Bismillah is spelled, so any multiples of 19 that resulted from omitting a letter Alif from the Bismillah is man-made.“

The predominant narrative amongst Muslims is that there was no written Quran during the prophet’s lifetime, and that the Quran is primarily an oral revelation given to the prophet. The official story is that the Quran was only compiled into writing after the prophet died, and that because of this, the written Arabic text is not Quranic revelation.

That idea is thoroughly disputed by the Quran itself. In a few verses, God mentions that the whole Quran was written down in parchment by scribes of the prophet during the prophet’s life.

  • [80:11-16] No! Indeed, it is a Reminder. So whoever willed shall remember it. It (Quran) is in honored pages, exalted, purified. It is by the hands of scribes, noble, pious.
  • [52:1-3] By the Mount, and the Book that is written in unrolled parchment.
  • [33:6] The prophet is closer to the believers than their own selves, and his wives are their mothers. The relatives are closer to one another in God’s Book than the rest of the believers and the immigrants. But continue doing acts of kindness to your allies. That has been written in the Book.

Moreover, we see in verse 25:5 that disbelievers accused the prophet of writing down the Quran from another human being rather than from God. The disbeliever would not make this accusation if there was no written copy Quran available to the prophet the time.

  • [25:5] And they said, “Tales of the previous ones which he has written, while they were dictated upon him morning and evening!”

Additionally, verse 98:2-3 mentions the messenger reciting purified pages of a written text that contains correct writings. That means there was a correct, pure, written text of the Quran available to him.

  • [98:2-3] A messenger of God reciting purified pages, in which there are correct writings.
  • This is a very important verse because many Muslims believe there is no perfect written copy of the Quran available, but instead, only the oral recitation is perfect. But verses 98:2-3 states that the messenger had pages of purified and correct Quranic text available to recite from.
  • Given that God endorses a correct, purified written version of the Quran, there is definitely a specific textual spelling of each word in the Quran that God intended.

That means, regarding the Bismillah, it has an omitted Alif (thus causing it to be 19 letters rather than 20) not because of Uthman’s personal orthographic style, but because this was an instruction given by God to the prophet, and he passed that instruction onto his scribes.

  • And further evidence is that in the Quranic text there are other occurrences of the word Bism that do not have an omitted Alif.
  • The only time an Alif is omitted is when writing the Bismillah specifically.
  • If this was simply due to the conventions of Uthmanic orthography, then this rule would have been applied for all occurrences of the word “Bism” throughout the Quran, but it does not. Since we now know that a written Quran existed during the time of the prophet, we know that this is how the prophet told scribes to spell it, and that spelling carried over when the written text was standardized under Caliph Uthman.

The Quran: Not in Chronological Order

For the longest time, it has always been a mystery as to why the Surahs of the Quran are not arranged in the chronological order that they were revealed. Aside from the Quranic initials and the missing Bismillah, this was one of the strangest things about the Quran.

For example, the first revealed Surah is believed to be Surah 96, the second is Surah 68, the fifth is Surah 1, the sixth is Surah 111, and so on. The final three revealed Surahs are believed to be Surah 5, Surah 9, and Surah 110.

Moreover, God didn’t simply finish a Surah and move on to the next. New verses were being placed into both new and existing Surahs seemingly randomly. And some verses within the Surahs themselves were not even revealed in the order that they were compiled.

In other words, this is probably the most randomized compilation process of any book on Earth.

  • Of course, a Muslim will not truly call this “random” because we believe that it’s God who is making the decisions.
  • But to a non-Muslim, it looks like Muhammad just assigned completely random positional orders to the Surahs and the verses.

The only explanation for this phenomenon is verses 75:17 and 24:1. Verse 24:1 indicates that God differentiates the Surahs from one another. Verse 75:17 says the compilation of the Quran is God’s responsibility.

  • That means according to how Muslims understand it, the prophet was given instructions from God about the correct way to compile the Quran into its current order, including the positional order of each Surah and the number of verses in each Surah, and the “why” behind this is known only to God.
  • [75:17] Indeed, upon us is its (Quran’s) compilation and its recitation.
  • [24:1] This is a Surah which We have brought down and obligated, and We revealed therein clear verses, so that you may remember.

But as you have seen, the Surah numbers and verse numbers are an essential component of the 19-based mathematical structure. If the position numbers of the Surahs and verses were based on their chronological order of revelation, or even if their assigned positions were off by a little bit, then most of the mathematical structure would collapse.

So this adds another layer of unlikelihood to the claim that prophet Muhammad fabricated the Quran. If he truly fabricated the Quran, then it would be nearly impossible to produce such a complex mathematical structure without being aware of it, and while assigning the positional numbers to the Surahs and verses at random.

Conclusion

When you look at a skyscraper, it doesn’t take a genius to know that it didn’t randomly pop into existence by itself, or by accident. We don’t need a probability calculator or use statistical formulas to know that the chances of this occurring are astronomically small.

Likewise, when we analyze the complexity of the Quran’s 19-based structure, we see that it is too complex and intricate to have been accidentally fabricated by Muhammad, a person who had zero knowledge of anything related to the number 19.

  • The only explanation is that Muhammad is not the author of the Quran. He had nothing to do with the creation of the Quran.
  • Instead, the Quran was authored by God.

The 19-based structure, while sufficient as proof on its own, should be viewed together with the following other pieces of evidence of the Quran’s authenticity:

  • The fulfillment of the Quran’s Byzantine victory prophecy in Surah 30.
  • Prophet Muhammad’s victory at the Battle of Badr against overwhelming odds.
  • Many pieces of information in the Quran that were scientifically confirmed much later.
  • The brief story in verse 66:3 where the prophet entrusted a secret to one of his wives, then she spilled the secret to another of his wives, then God told him, then he confronted her and told her that God told him. This event at least provided undeniable direct proof to his wives.

Now regarding the two false verses of the Quran, the question is: if God said in the Quran that it is preserved and that no falsehood can ever enter it, then why would there be two verses in today’s copies of the Quran?

The answer is because God only guaranteed that “the Quran” will be preserved, rather than “man-made copies of the Quran”. Falsehood cannot enter only the original Quran. This begs the question: What is the original Quran?

  • The original Quran exists in two forms: physical, and oral.
  • The physical form is inside the “guarded tablet” (verse 85:22). The oral form of the original Quran is the “tanzeel” (transmission) that came directly from God to the prophet (verse 41:42).
  • Every written Quran that we produce is not the original Quran, but a physical copy of the original written Quran that exists with God. Every verse of the Quran that we recite is an oral copy of the original oral transmission (tanzeel) given to the prophet by God.
  • God is not going to magically chop off anyone’s hand for writing mistakes in the physical Quran copies, nor destroy the vocal cords of anyone who accidentally makes a mistake in the oral Quran copies. When the Quran is guarded from falsehood, that means the original is guarded, not its copies.

Some might say, “When God says falsehood can never enter the Quran, that means the Quran is protected through mass memorization. Since mass-memorization did not filter out verses 9:128-129, those must be genuine verses.“

  • But according to Sunni Islam, the Quran is missing the verse of stoning adulterers to death. (Tirmidhi, no 1432, graded Sahih). A sheep also ate the verse about breastfeeding adults (Sunan Ibn Majah 1944, graded Hasan). An entire Surah whose length resembles Surah 9 is missing from the Quran according to Sahih Muslim 1050.
  • How could the Sunnis claim that large chunks of the Quran are absent from our memory today, if mass memorization is the tool that protected the Quran from falsehood and tampering?
  • No, the only logical explanation is that when God says falsehood cannot enter the Quran, that means falsehood cannot enter the original copy of the Quran that exists with God in the “preserved tablet” (verse 85:22). The man-made written copies and the people’s memory of the Quran are not protected from falsehood and tampering.
  • In order to make our man-made copies look and sound exactly like the original Quran, God put a built-in security system inside it based on the number 19. And that 19-based system is sounding the alarm about verses 9:128-129, informing us that they are false, man-made verses.

Most importantly, an important prophecy in the Quran has finally been fulfilled. It was prophesized in verse 74:31 that the number 19 will someday increase the faith and certainty for believers and People of the Book (Jews and Christians) and remove the doubts from their hearts.

This means the number 19 was destined in the Quran to prove the authenticity of the Quran beyond all doubts.

  • As you have seen, the discovery of the Quran’s extensive 19-based mathematical composition is the fulfillment of this prophecy, proving beyond all doubts that the Quran is the truth and that God is real. Why? Because prophet Muhammad (who had zero knowledge of number 19) could not have unintentionally or unknowingly created a book with a highly complex mathematical structure based on the number 19.

God did not have to do this service for humanity, leaving behind such conclusive proof that He exists and that the Quran came from Him. God did not have to leave behind a security system to allow people access to the pure, unadulterated Quran. He does not owe a single thing to anyone except whatever He wants to owe us, while everyone owes everything to Him.

Yet, promises are promises, and God makes sure His promises are fulfilled.

And in that process, many unanswered questions became answered, such as:

  • In what way does the Quran contain “clear proofs of the guidance” (verse 2:185)? How is the Quran itself the miracle of prophet Muhammad (verse 29:50-51)?
  • How does the Quran confirm the previous scriptures (verse 5:48 and others)?
  • What is the meaning of the Quran’s challenge to humanity?
  • In what way is the Quran actually preserved?
  • How to explain the mysteries involving the Quran’s literary structure (the initials, the missing Bismillah of Surah 9, the extra Bismillah in 27:30, why Surah 1 has its starting Bismillah as a numbered verse, the compilation of the Quran out of its revelation order, the unusual variability in chapter and verse lengths, and more)?

So, please enjoy this miracle, frequently express gratitude for it, and let this deepen your faith and dedication to God.
