Might grasp your attention! Dr.Tariq Al Swaidan discovered some verses in the Holy Qur'an that mention one thing is equal to another, i.e. men are equal to women. Although this makes sense grammatically, the astonishing fact is that the number of times the word MAN appears in the Holy Qur'an is 24 and number of times the word WOMAN appears is also 24, therefore not only is this phrase correct in the grammatical sense but also true mathematically, i.e. 24 = 24.

Here are some more examples of the balance between the terms mentioned in The Noble Qur'an:

Life 145 times mentioned...... Death 145 times mentioned

Benefit 50 ...... Corrupt 50

Dunia (one name for life) 115 ..... Aakhirat (one name for the life after this world) 115

Malaika (Angels) 88 ........... Shayteen (Satan) 88

People who are mislead 17 ........... Dead people 17

Magic 60 .......... Fitnah (dissuasion, misleading) 60

Zakat (Taxes Muslims pay to the poor) 32 ... Barakah (blessings of wealth)

In religious matters people argue to believe in blind faith, but where is the difference in Christian blind faith and let's say the blind faith that was used in....

"The Manson Family"
"People's Church" (Jonestown)
"Heaven's Gate" (Hale Bop)
"Aum Shinrikyo"
"Movement for the Restoration of the Ten Commandments of God"
"Catholic Inquisitions"

All done in the name of God and through blind faith. Religious groups never seem to question their sources, yet say how everyone else is at risk.

Why the "S".
There is a difference in the noun when there is one OBJECT to two OBJECTS.
There is no difference in the noun between two OBJECTS and a squillion OBJECTS.
Why keep the plural law in grammar?

Isaiah 13:13 Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the Lord of Hosts, and in the day of His fierce anger.

It just dawned on me what this is talking about. From verse 10 to 13 it speaks of the sky blotting out the moon and stars, and dimming the sun. Mankind shall become an endangered species, and the earth will tumble out of its orbit. All of this could easily come to pass should Yellowstone ignite like a rocket booster. And there's not thing one we can do about it. Well, maybe not. A few verses later it speaks about how all of this happens after the king of Babylon is destroyed. Maybe we don't want to hang the man just yet...
