A.L.M.
(Alef. Laam. Mim.)
The
letters "Alef,"
"Laam,"
and
"Mim"
are
the most frequently used letters in the Arabic language, and in the same order
as we see in the Quranic Initials - "Alef,"
then "Laam,"
then
"Mim"
.These. letters prefix six chapters- 2, 3, 29, 30, 31, and 32 and the total
occurrence of the three letters in each of the six chapters is a multiple of
19, 9899 (19x521), 5662 (19x298), 1672 (19x88), 1254 (19x66), 817 (19x43), and
570 (19x30), respectively. Thus, the total occurrence of the three letters in
the six chapters is 19874 (19x1046), and the alteration of one of these letters
destroys this phenomenon.
Another
relevant example is the reference to Mecca
in
3:96 as "Becca"!
This strange
spelling of the renowned city has puzzled Islamic scholars for many centuries.
Although Mecca is mentioned in the Quran properly spelled in 48:24, the letter
"Mim"
is
substituted with a "Ba"
in
3:96. It turns out that chapter 3 is an M-initialed chapter, and the count of
the letter (M.) "Mim"
would
have deviated from the Quran's code if "Mecca"
was spelled
correctly in 3:96.
