Ha run Yah ya (Ad nan Ok tar)
The sequence of the Arabic letters in Surat al-Hadid
represent expressions containing our Lord's Commands—and it also car-
ried pertinent scientific advice on the one hand and references concerning
atoms on the other.
This study was conducted taking the Arabic letter "Ra" as the "R" in
Western alphabets or "Mim" as the letter "M." The sequence of the letters
representing the element is not considered. It is sufficient for the letters to
appear side by side. This is because the letters in the element Kr, for ex-
ample, do not represent another element by the name of "Rk."
Scientists have identi-
fied 92 natural ele-
ments. Artificial ele-
ments have also been
obtained by various
experiments in recent
times, but these are
seldom found on
Earth.
To date, the existence
of 110 elements has
been verified by the
International Union of
Pure and Applied
Chemistry (IUPAC).
