Allah’s Words Never Run Out

31:27

وَلَوۡ أَنَّمَا فِى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ مِن شَجَرَةٍ أَقۡلَـٰمٌ۬ وَٱلۡبَحۡرُ يَمُدُّهُ ۥ مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِۦ سَبۡعَةُ أَبۡحُرٍ۬ مَّا نَفِدَتۡ كَلِمَـٰتُ ٱللهِ‌ۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ۬ ٢٧

If all the trees on Earth were made into pens, and the ocean supplied the ink, augmented by seven more oceans, the words of ALLAH would not run out. ALLAH is Almighty, Most Wise.

Proofs and revelations

31:27 - See verse 18:109.


Revealed: 18:109 mentions doubling the oceans - representing the number 2. 31:27 mentions 7 more oceans. Combine the two numbers to reveal 27 which matches with the second occurrence of this type of verse in 31:27 and also confirms the 27th night of Ramazan when the Quran was revealed.


Both verses reveal that the words of Allah can never run out.


For extensive proofs on these verses, see Sermon “Beyond Probability” - dated Aug 31st 2007 on the Allah Proven as 1 website (http://www.godprovenas1.com).

    The specific chapter and verse numbers chosen by GOD for these 2 specific verses (18:109 & 31:27) are proof enough for the entire Quran, as these numbers are representative of the beginning verse – 1:1, and the ending verse – 114:6, of the Quran.

This pattern of numbers is actually the number 27, and we all know that the Quran was revealed in Ramadan on the night of the 27th. Thus God has directly alluded to that day, and confirmed the day of the original revelation given to prophet Muhammad.

    This is the reason for which chapter 27 in the Quran is assigned 93 verses, to reflect and reveal the difference between 27 and 93 to be precisely 66. Thus the Sacred structuring and composition reveals only one name – ALLAH – 66. HE is the ONE who ordained and revealed this divine scripture. To bind and seal this chapter, as may be the case with other chapters also, GOD has linked the 1st and the last verse of Chapter 27.

This brings out and projects His Attribute of Omnipotence in a very vivid way. Surely, GOD’S Words (Hadith) never runs out. Alhumdo Lillah.
