Numbers in this Surah
The same dataset feeds a small panel for the Surah pages. A reader on Yaseen sees the numbers of Yaseen, and one tap brings them here.
How we count
No number here is typed in by hand. Each one is produced by the same three steps.
Source text
The Tanzil text of the Qur'an, with the Quranic Arabic Corpus, which records the root and dictionary form of each of its 77,429 words.
Counting rule
Each figure has a written rule: which word, which forms. The rule is shown beside the number, in plain English.
Check it yourself
Open any number to list its ayat. Each ayah opens in the reader, with its Tafsir and recitation.
Every form of the word or root is counted. No choices were made.
The figure holds for the forms named in the rule, for example the singular only.
A figure often quoted elsewhere that this dataset does not reproduce. We show both.
