Another mathematical miracle of the Qur'an is the manner in which the number 19 is numerologically encoded in verses. This number is stressed in the words of the Qur'an: "There are nineteen in charge of it." (Qur'an, 74:30), and is encoded in various places in the Book. Some examples of this can be listed as follows:
The Formula consists of 19 letters.
The Qur'an consists of 114 (19 x 6) Suras.
The first Sura to be revealed (Sura 96) is the 19th from the end.
The first verses of the Qur'an to be revealed are the first five verses of Sura 96 and the total number of words in these verses is 19.

As we have seen, the first five verses consist of 19 words. The "
Furthermore, the first verse of Surat an-Nasr, which speaks of the help of Allah, contains 19 letters.

There is a formula at the beginning of the 27th Sura, Surat an-Naml, and in verse 30. There are thus two formulas in the 27th Sura. It is the formula in the 30th verse of the 27th Sura which completes the total of 114 formulas in the Qur'an. When we add together the number of the verse and the number of the Sura, 30 and 27, we find the number 57 (19 x 3).
The total number of Suras from Surat at-Tawba (9) to Surat an-Naml (27) is 342 (9 + 10 + 11 +12 +13 +14 +15 +16 + 17 + 18 + 19 + 20 + 21 + 22 + 23 + 24 + 25 + 26 + 27). That figure is 19 multiplied by 18.

Total abjad value of the word | 19 |

2 | 8 | 20 | 80 | 2.000 |

6 | 12 | 60 | 300 | 100.000 |
The total of these numbers (again without taking repetitions into account) is 162,146. This is 19 x 8,534:
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 + 11 + 12 + 19 +20 + 30 + 40 + 50 + 60 + 70 + 80 + 99 + 100 + 200 + 300 + 1,000 + 2,000 + 3,000 + 5,000 + 50,000 + 100,000 = 162,146 (19 x 8,534).

Other findings on this subject include:
In the whole of the Qur'an,
- the word "atee" (obey!) appears 19 times,
- the words "Abd" (servant), "abid" (a person who serves) and "abudu" (worship) appear a total of 152 (19 x 8) times,
- Al-Wahid (The One) 19 (19 x 1)
- Aj-Jami (The Gatherer) 114 (19 x 6)

The place of the number 19 in the Pascal triangle
The total of the first 19 numbers in the Pascal triangle is 57 (19 x 3).
The connection between the number 19 and the Pascal triangle with regard to the revelation sequence of the Qur'anic verses
It [the Qur’an] is simply a reminder to all the worlds. You will certainly know the truth of it after a while.
