Only
one chapter is prefixed with these initials, chapter 7, and the letter "Alef"
occurs
in this chapter 2529 times, "Laam"
occurs
1530 times, "Mim"
occurs
1164 times, and "Saad"
(Saad)
occurs 97 times. Thus, the total occurrence of the four letters in this chapter
(Sura) is :
2529+1530+1164+97 = 5320 = 19x280.
An important observation here is the interlocking relationship involving the
letter "S" (Saad)
.
This
initial occurs also in Sura's 19 and 38. While complementing its sister letters
in Sura 7 to give a total that is divisible by 19, the frequency of this letter
also complements its sister letters in chapters 19 and 38 to give a multiple
of 19.
Additionally,
the Quranic Initial "S" (Saad)
interacts
with the Quranic Initials "K.H.Y.`A." (Kaaf Haa Ya `Ayn) in Sura 19 to give
another total that is also a multiple of 19. (See below). This interlocking
relationship - which is not unique to the initial "S" (Saad)
contributes
to the intricacy of the Quran's numerical code.
