first i have to say that quran was revealed to prophet mohammad who couldn`t read or write 1400 years a go in arabia.<< **this part can be interesting for Christians and the Jewish :It is mentioned in the book of Isaiah chapter 29 verse 12 :"And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned.">>
the spritual and moral content and the devine beauties of the quran is so attractive that most people become muslims because of
the strong love between themselves and the one god(god of ibrahim, jesus,moses and others who is one god and has no partners or son or daughter), it is a book that when recited moves people to tears. a book that is memorised completely by millions of people
but some people are after proofs , they cant have faith easily, they are after signs
if you are like them,I want to share with you just some of the many many miracles of the quran.
WORD REPETITION IN THE QURAN
keep ind that quran is considered by arabs whether muslim or NOT as the greatest piece of arabic literature, and and it was impossible to just add or delete words in order to get these balances.
The word "land" appears 13 times in the Qur'an and the word "sea" 32 times,
If we add up the total words of both "sea" and "land" we get 45 , the calculation:
32/45 X 100% = 71% = percentages of Water (Sea) in the world
13/45 X 100% = 29% = percentages of Land in the world
The statement of "seven heavens" is repeated seven times. "The creation of the heavens (khalq as-samawat)" is also repeated seven times.
"Day (yawm)" is repeated 365 times in singular form, while its plural and dual forms "days (ayyam and yawmayn)" together are repeated 30 times. The number of repetitions of the word "month" (shahar) is 12.
The number of repetitions of the words "plant" and "tree" is the same: 26
The word "payment or reward" is repeated 117 times, while the expression "forgiveness" (mughfirah), which is one of the basic morals of the Qur'an, is repeated exactly twice that amount, 234 times.
When we count the word "Say," we find it appears 332 times. We arrive at the same figure when we count the phrase "they said."
The number of times the words, "world" (dunya) and "hereafter" (akhira) are repeated is also the same: 115
The word "satan" (shaitan) is used in the Qur'an 88 times, as is the word "angels" (malaika).
The number of times the words "man" and "woman" are repeated in the Qur'an, 23, is at the same time that of the chromosomes from the egg and sperm in the formation of the human embryo. The total number of human chromosomes is 46; 23 each from the mother and father.
The word "salawat" appear five times in the Qur'an, and Allah has commanded man to perform the prayer (salat) five times a day
*****look at the complete list of word repetitions in the link for mathematical miracles below***

2- Embryology in the Quran link:

3-Holy Quran and The Lowest Part of the Earth
http://inthenameofgod.brinkster.net/HTML%20DailyPrayers/The%20Holy%20Quran%20mentions%20the%20lowest%20part%20of%20the%20earth%20and%20states%20that%20it%20is%20near%20Jerusalem.htm
4-or in the qoran it is said that the universe is ever expanding which has been proven in recent years
5- it said there is cure in eating bee`s honey and it has been proven by doctors that honey has this effect
6-it said that sun and moon are rotating and it has been proven that they are rotating around their axeses
7-it is also mentioned that the earth is egg-shaped, not spherical, a fact which was recently discovered;
8-it empfesizes that God will put together in perfect order the very tips of our fingers in the day of judgement when he recreates our bodies, and recently
sientists discovered that fingerprints are unique to ones identity, yet the Holy quran empesized that 1400 years a go.
"Does man think that WE Cannot assemble his bones? Nay, WE are able to put Together in perfect order The very tips of his fingers."

dont forget that qoran says that christianity and judiasm was from
god too but prophet mohammad was the last prophet for mankind ,who had the
the same message that jesus and moses and abraham and other propohets had.
and that is to worship one god without partners.
*to non-muslims: what do you say about the miracles( they are too many to be coincidenses )?
* to muslims : why do they ignore the clear facts and proofs?
here is a link to some famous scientists point of view a bout the miracles in the quran.

To rhsaunder:
I dont know what book you read, or what verse are you talking about in" crushing chest ", but maybe it was not refering to what the auther thaught. so it was a misundrestanding and misintrepeting of a one verse of the Holy quran by the auther of that book.but what about the examples I provided??

ok , even if the percentages change lets say in 2000 years from now, it will always be a miracle that these words represent the right percentage of land and sea "in the
time of the revelation of Quran"
and now we are 1400 years later and the percentages are still right.

and there were alot of his companions that used to write the verses when they were revealed to prophet mohammad and some used to memorize it . then they used to make lots of copies of the writings and prophet mohammad checked them to be all
correct .and the memorizers checked too.
and God said he will protect the quran.
so it is the same as it was revealed to prophet mohammad. and the miracles confirm it .look if there were changes to Quarn some of the mathematical miracles would be distroyed. but God will always protect the quran his final message to mankind from changing.
