I am asking about the numerical miraculousness in the Holy Quran.
The Holy Quran is truth and miraculous in its eloquence and sciences, and it must be protected from doubts and illusions. Scholars have agreed on the prohibition of interpreting it based on personal opinion without textual evidence or linguistic basis.
It is not befitting for a Muslim to strain himself to extract numerical relationships out of enthusiasm, for the Quran is full of evident miracles.
Numerical miracles have recently emerged, and to delve into them, one must adhere to strict guidelines: conformity with the Quranic script, accuracy of statistical methods, reliance on transmitted readings (Qira'at Mutawatirah), and the clear manifestation of the miraculous aspect such that humans are incapable of producing anything similar. Most of what has been written about numerical miracles does not adhere to these guidelines.
