T.,Ha.,S.,M. ط ه س م

Suras 20, 26, 27, and 28 are the only chapters in the Quran that have the initial "T" ( ط ). The initials for these respective chapters are the following:

These suras provide a phenomenal interlocking mechanism using the letter "T" ( ط ) as an anchor between two different sets of initialed suras.

  • Set #1 = T. + Ha. + S. + M. = 107 + 426 + 290 + 944 = 1767 = 19x93

  • Set #2 = T. + Ha. + S. + M. = 107 + 251 + 290 + 1936 = 2584 = 19x136

The first set will include only Sura 19 to the "T" ( ط ) initialed Suras, which is the adjacent initialed sura to Sura 20, which has the initials "T" ( ط ) and "Ha" ( ه ), and shares the common letter "Ha" ( ه ) with Sura 19. Since Sura 18 is not an initialed Sura, then, therefore, Sura 19 is the only initialed Sura that will be added to this first set. The total of these initials comes out to the following total: 1767 = 19x93.

The second set of letters will include the adjacent Suras to Sura 28 and include the corresponding adjacent M ( م ) initialed Suras. This will make the second set consist of suras: 20, 26, 27, and 28, as well as the M ( م ) for the following four suras: 29, 30, 31, and 32. Notice that Sura 28 has the following initials: "T" ( ط ), S ( س ), and M ( م ), with the only shared initial with Suras 29-32 being M ( م ). Also, note that Sura 33 is not an initialed sura; therefore, no other sura will be included in this set. When we aggregate the totals of all these initials in this respective second set, we see that the total comes out to 2584 = 19x136.

It is also worth pointing out that if we calculate the gematrical value of these four letters using the abjad system, we see that the total comes out to 114 = 19 x 6.

Additionally, The letter "T" ( ط ) occurs 1273 times in the entire Quran. 1273 = 19 x 67. 67 is the 19th prime number. Since 1273 is an odd number, we can represent this number in the following format: 1273 = 636 + 1 + 636. It just happens that the first 636 occurrences of the letter "T" ( ط ) occur in the first 19 Suras of the Quran. This makes Sura 20 verse 1, where the first Ta initial is mentioned, the exact middle of the 1273 occurrences for the letter "T" ( ط ) in the Quran.
