where it says one thing is like another.

See below for astonishing result of

the words mentioned number of times in Arabic

Holy Qur'an

Dunia (one name for life) 115 ..

Aakhirat (one name for the life after this world) 115

Malaika (Angels) 88 . Shayteen (Satan) 88

Life 145 Death 145

Benefit 50 Corrupt 50

People 50 Messengers 50

Eblees (king of devils) 11 . Seek refuge from Eblees 11

Museebah (calamity) 75 .. Thanks ! 75

Spending (Sadaqah) 73 . Satisfaction 73

People who are mislead 17 Dead people 17

Muslimeen 41 J Jihad 41

Gold 8 Easy life 8

Magic 60 Fitnah (dissuasion, misleading) ! 60

Zakat (Taxes Muslims pay to the poor) 32

Barakah (Increasing or blessings of wealth) 32

Mind 49 Noor 49

Tongue 25 Sermon 25

Desite 8 Fear 8

Speaking publicly 18 Publicising 18

Hardship 114 .... Patience 114

Muhammed 4 Sharee'ah ( Muhammed's teachings) 4

Man 24 . Woman 24

And amazingly enough have a look how many times

the following words appear:

Salat 5, Month 12 , Day 365,

Sea 32, Land 13

Sea + land = 32 + 13 = 45

Sea = 32/45*100q.= 71.11111111%

Land = 13/45*100 = 28.88888889%

Sea + land 100.00%

Modern science has only recently proven that the water covers

71.111% of the

earth, while the land covers 28..889%.

Is this a coincidence? Question is that

Who taught Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) all this?

Reply automatically comes in mind

ALMIGHTY ALLAH

taught him.

This as the

Holy Qur'an
