The Mathematical Connection

7 surahs×4 surahs=28
7 surahs with ط in their names × 4 surahs starting with ط

✨ Remarkably, Surah Ta-Ha is the first surah in both groups!

There are exactly 28 letters ط in Surah Ta-Ha!

4×4=16

ط is the 16th letter in the common Hijazi alphabetic order!

Questions to Ponder

⏰ How could such a profound symmetry be created over 23 years of revelation?

📝 The addition of just one word with the letter ط (ṭāʼ) would have disrupted this pattern. And the last revelation was days (or according to one opinion few months) before the death of Prophet ﷺ.

🔮 How did Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) know that his life was nearing its end, allowing him to complete and balance this remarkable structure?

⏳ Given that the Quran was inscribed on stones, parchments, and bones across different locations and scribes, how could Prophet Muhammad ﷺ have maintained such precise count of this letter?
