SAMARIUM = Sm
62
The French scientist Paul Lecoq de Boisbaudran dis-
covered the element Samarium (Sm) in 1879. In the Surah
the letters "S" and "M" first come together after the 62 nd let-
ter. These letters appear together as "M" and "S." But there is
no element bearing the abbreviation Ms, the reverse of Sm.
Number of letters from the beginning of the verse to the letters "Sm": 62
Atomic number of the element "Sm": 62
(Surat al-Hadid, 15)
POTASSIUM = K
39
The British chemist Sir Humphrey Davy first obtained
the element Potassium (K) using electrolysis in 1807.
Potassium is a requirement for plants, animals and also the
human body. It can be found quite easily as it is commonly
found in the world of nature. It also has a wide field of application, from
the making of explosives to the production of medicine.
There are 39 letters between the beginning of Surat al-Hadid and the
first appearance of the letter "K," that figure being the element's atomic
mass. In addition there are 19 letters between the beginning of the verse and
here. It is also noteworthy that this is the atomic number of the element K.
Number of letters between the beginning of the verse and the letter "K": 39
Atomic mass of the element "K": 39
(Surat al-Hadid, 2)
