as salaamu alaykum wa rahmatAllahi wa barakatuh,

We actually had a discussion on this same article in the al-Taqwa masjid.   You can read it [url=http://www.jannah.org/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl/YaBB.pl?board=masjid&action=display&num=1464]here[/url]

Not this again!! I have received this dozens of times in e-mail and have seen it on various message boards.  Am I the only one that thinks this is silly??? If the Quran did NOT mention opposites equal numbers of times, it would not make it any less truthful.  And also, Who goes and counts all these words anyways??? Wouldn't that time have been better spent actually READING the Quran and learning from it.  I think that this is just a sad reflection of many Muslims perception towards the Quran-many are interested in it's outer form-we hang it on our walls, count the words in it, engrave it in jewelry and wear it around our necks but how many of us actually READ it??? :(
