The “Ijma:’’ on the Permission OfThe

division of Sacred Qur’a:n in Thirty
‘Ajza:’
Introduction

The division of sacred Qur’a:n in Thirty “Ajza: is a latter one . Its exact time is unknown. But it is an
irrefutable fact there is an ‘Ijma:’ of Ummah on the Permission of it [Consensus], and it is one of the
most Powerful ‘Ijma:’. Not a single sound was raised against the Permission of the “Ijma:’ on it.

As “Ijma:’ is one of the sourses of “Isla:m , it is nether an Heresy nor an Heterodoxy [neither Bid’:ah nor
khila:fussunnah].

How ever as the ‘Ijma: is on the Permission and not on the obligation , it is still permitted to print or to
write or to type Sacred Qur’a:n without it.

But it must be noted once for all that this division is flawless . Since it is impossible that there is an
“Ijma:’ on some error or some mistake.

The reason of Division in thirty Parts.

This division of Sacred Qur’a:n is very useful in reciting Sacred Qur’a:n in Tara:vi:h: and recitation of
Sacred Qur’a:n in a month or for the purpose of teaching and preaching of the Text of the Sacred
Qur’a:n.

Heretic Objections by some Heretics in the 21 st Gregorian century , or 15th Hijrah Century

Unfortunately Dr ‘Isra:r and Mirza: Jhelumi: both has criticized this division on the following grounds.

1] This division is independent of the Division of Su:ras [Chapters] of Holy Qur’a:n.

So some parts of a Surah is some time in one part and some parts of a Surah is in the next part. This they
consider as a flaw [S-q-m] or an Ugliness [Qabah:ah/t].

2]This division is not topic wise.

The answer to these two objections is that this division is not in regard to Surah and also not in respect
to topics.

This division is in regard to the recitation of Sacred Qur’a:n in Tara:vi:h: .

Had this division was suggestion with the condition that no Part shall divide any Su:rah , yet this
condition was not satisfied , then there would have been an imperfection and a flaw.

But as it is clear that there was no such condition ever imposed , and as it was never imposed it was
never dropped after its supposed imposition. This condition was absent and rejected from the very
beginning of the division. If there is no condition then no condition is violated, if a condition is not
imposed from the very beginning of the idea of division there is no question , whether it is satisfied or it
is not fulfilled. So the alleged flaw based on a condition which was never imposed is not a flaw. To call it
a flaw is an illogical claim .

As for the objection that the division of Sacred Qur’a:n is a random division or an arbitrary division is
incorrect and modern works shew that there is a mathematical system in the division. How ever strange
but this is proved as follow.

There are 7 Manazil [ Sing: Manzil] in Sacred Qur’an , 558 Ruku’:a:t [Sing : Ruku:’:] , 30 ‘Ajza:’ [Sing: J-z’]

60 ‘Ah:za:b [Sing H:-zb, dwel H:izba:n] , 240 Ruba:’ [Sing : Rub-‘:].

Each part is divided in to two H:izba:n , and each H:izba:n in four Ruba:’: .

Now there is a Mathematical function between such divisions.

Page 2 of 21
 Page 3 of 21

That is the Remainder of divisions is divisible by the number three.

If this is the case then such a division cannot be a random or an arbitrary division.

Modern research does shew that there are 6236 Ku:fic ‘A:ya:t [verses/Sentences] in Sacred Qur’an.

Non Kufic verses which are represented by inverted hearts or the numerical 5 of Sindhi or Urdu language
constitute non Kufic ‘Aya:t.

But we shall focus our attention on the Kufic ‘A:ya:t.

In Tara:vi:h , the verse Bismillahir Rah:ma:nir Rah:i:m is recidted independent of all Surahs for only one
time. So the number of Kufi: Tara:vi:h: verses is 6237.

The total number of letters in Sacred Qur’a:n is 330709.

The tolal Number of words in Sacred Quran is 77797.

If Bismillah is added in the Kufic Verses the number goes to 6236+113=

As we know that according to the general formula:

Divident = (Divisor)(Quotient) + Remainder

The division algorithm.

Now it is clear that there is a Mathematical relation between the remainders of different types of
divisions , which are made after difficult calculations .Calculations by Humans and not by computers and
calculators. One must appreciate such a hard work , not not make fun of such a wise calculation as done
by the Apostate of Jhelum.

Relation between 114 ‘Aya:t and the number 30 of ‘Ajza:’

114 = (3)(30)+ 24

24 is the remainder [rem].

24 is divisible by 3, 24\3 =8

Hence

24|3

Relation between 558 Ruku’:a:t and the number 114 [Total number of Surah]

558 = (4)(114) +102

102 is rem.

Page 3 of 21
 Page 4 of 21

102\3 = 34

This proves that

102|3

Tara:vi:h Kufic ‘A:yah =6237

Now if this number is divided by three we get the following algorithm

6237 = (207)(30)+ 27. 27 is the rem.

27 \3 = 9

This proves that

27|3

If one take 6236 instead of 6237 even then the remainder is 26, which is just one less that 27.

Relation between

Relation between the number of Ruku:’:a:t and the number of parts of sacred Qur’a:n which is 30.

558 = (18)(30)+ 18.

Rem = 18

18 is the rem’

18\3 = 6

This proves that 18|3

As the total number of Ruba:’: is 240 and total number of Kufic Tara:vi:h: ‘Aya:t is 6237

6237 = (25)(240)+237

Rem = 237

But 237\3 =79

This proves

237|3

Relation between 6237 and 114

6237 =(54)(114)= 81

Page 4 of 21
 Page 5 of 21

81 is the rem

81\3 =27

This shews that

81|3

Relation of 240 Ruba:’: and 114 Surahs

240 = (2)(114)+12

Once again

12\3 =4

This proves that

12|3

Relation of the number of words in Kufic Verses [KV] with 113 Bismillahand the number 30

The total number of kufic verses are 6236.

The total number of letter in these Verses are 77797

Adding the letters of Bismillah which are 19 , 113 time :

77797 +(19)(113)= 332856

Now 332856 has the following algorithm with number 30

3328556 = (11095)(30)+6

Where 6 is the Rem

6\3 =2

This proves that

6|3

Relation between the Number of letters in 6236 ‘Aya:t and the number of words in them

330709 =(4)(77797)+19521

Where 19521 is the Rem

19521\3 = 6507

Page 5 of 21
 Page 6 of 21

This proves that

19521|3

Relation between Taravi:h: Words and Tara:vi:h: Letters.

As mentioned earlier that in Tara:vi:h: one usually recite Bismillah with Jahr independent of any Su:rah.

Bismillah has four words and 19 letters.

This constitute an interesting formation.

(330709+19) = 330728

(77797+4) = 77801

330728 = (4)(77801)+ 19524

Rem = 19524

19524\3 =6508

This proves

19524|3

This does shew that the number 30 was selected to continue the divisibility of remainder by 3.

But this is the reason of selection of the number 30.

These reslt does shew that the number Thirty is a number which is not selected at random , but it is a
number selected wisely to achieve a remainder , which is divisible by the number Three.

But as ‘A:ya:t are not of equal length it was not possible to divide ‘A:ya:t [Verses ]equally in all parts . So
the distribution of ‘A:ya:t in 30 parts is not equal.

Therefore the verses are not divided in ‘Ajza:’ on equality.

But there is some thing which proves a wisdom in the unequal division .

This may imply that the divisions of words and division of letters in each juz’ is also unequal.

So the number 30 was selected on this ground , the distribution of verses was not possible on the
numerical equality.

Page 6 of 21
 Page 7 of 21

But once again it is a bad conjecture that there is a random choice of distribution.

Modern Mathematics have made it easy to understand a Mathematical relation by using Mean
Deviation formula. The finding of this formula is indeed a marvel and disproves tha Absolute Random
theory as proposed by Mirza Jhelumi.

If the mean deviation is calculated we find a remainder very close to a number which is divisible by 3.

This does prove that the dividers of Qur’a:n in 30 parts did considered many things before selecting the
number thirty , and the number of verses in each part was selected on some basis/bases , such that
even the modern formula shews that the mean deviation is supporting the remainder formation as in
other cases.

Mean Deviation for ungrouped Data

[ Σ|x − μ|] \ n = Mean Deviation

--------------------------------------(A)

Where:

μ is the Arithmetic mean, n is the total number of ungrouped data.

Sum of Absolute Deviations = Σ|x - μ|

|x- μ| is always non negative whether x> μ or μ>x or x= μ.

So we shall write x- μ as positive or non negative even if μ>x and if for sake of simplicity mod is not
written.

That is negative sign shall be neglected if any.

We shall calculate the mean of Pure Kufic ‘Aya:t and Tara:vi:h: Kufic ‘A:ya:t

First we calculate the Tara:vi:h: Kufic ‘A:ya:t as it is a very strong probability that the Thirty ‘Ajza:’ were
selected from Tara:vi:h: Kufic Verses [TKV]

As TKV are 6237, then the mean of verse in each part is 6237/30 =207.9

So μ= 207.9

Mean Deviation for the 1st part

Page 7 of 21
 Page 8 of 21

Mean Deviation for the 1st part

Number of verses in the 1st part = 148

This is the Kufic number of verses. Adding one from Taravi:h: Kufic verses it is 149.

Please let it be noted we have just added one verse Bismillah not as a part of Surah Fa:tih:ah: but
independent of it. Some time this verse as a unique verse is added in the 30 th part. But for sake of
convenience it is added in the First Part. Those who are interested to add it independent of all Surahs in
the 30th part may calculate the result as an exercise , left for them.

In the Tara:vi:h when the recitation of entire Sacred Qur’a:n is completed , some ‘A’imah repeat initial
part of Surah Baqarah , but before it they recite Bismillahirah:ma:nirrah:i:m loudly not as a part of of
Surah Baqarah ,but independent of all Surah, as if it is a Surah itself.

It is possible to recite it initially as well. So we have added in the First part neither as a part of Surah
Fa:tih:ah nor as a part of Surah Baqarah but independent of them, but before the beginning of Surah
Baqarah [which is without Bislillah/

[ Σ|x − μ|] = Sum of all Mean Deviations in Absolute Value.

[ Σ|x − μ|] \ n = 77.92, where n = 30

Once again the 2337.6

2337.6 = (77.92 )(30)+ 27.6

One may argue that if rounded up 27.6 becomes 28. But if chopped of it is
still 27. Even in Bracket Function it is 27.What we want to say that
neglecting the fractional or decimal part we get 27.

According to bracket function [x-α]=x , where 0<α<1

For example [1.99998] =1

So the distribution of TKV were not at random and equally not arbitrary but
this does shew that they were selected with a wisdom which is disclosed
only by Mean Deviation Formula for Ungrouped data , a formula which was
not present at that time.

Page 8 of 21
 Page 9 of 21

Was this possible without Divine Assistance , as suggested by Mirza:

Jhelumi: and Dr ‘Israr.

Instead of appreciating such a hard and laborious work with out calculators
and computers and without any modern Mathematical Formulae , only
keeping in mind that the remainder in any case should be divisible by 3, and
performing calculation manually , it is one of the wonders of the religious his
history , which is bluntly discarded by Mirza: Jhelumi: and Dr ‘Isra:r as if they
are the gods of Qur’anic studies [‘Astaghfarullah Va na’:udh:ubillah].

Last but not the least:

If we take Kufic ‘Aya:t with 113 Bismillah as found in Mus:a:h:if then

6236+113 =6349 ‘A:ya:t [ Kufic +113 times Bismillah]

6249 = (211)(30)+19

19 is a well known number in Qur’a:nic Number Functions.

Mean Deviatiom

. μ= 207.9 =6237\30

Number of Ayahs in each Juz = x

Here's a count of the number of Ayahs (verses) in each Juz of the Qur'an...

Juz 01, x = 148 verses.

Adding 1 for Bislillah as an Independent verse we have 149. Taking x= 149 we have:

|x - μ| = 223.1

Juz 30, x = 564 verses

|x - μ| =356.1

... That's 6236+1=6237 verses in total.

Note that the above is according to Taravi:h according to Kufic Verses of recitation.

Σ|x - μ|= 2337.6

[Σ|x - μ|]\n = [2337.6]\30
=77.92
(77)(30)+27.6, where 27.6 is a remainder.
Now using Bracket function [27.6]=27.
Similarly if the decimal part is chopped of it is 27.

Page 12 of 21
 Page 13 of 21

As the fractional parts were chopped of instead of rounding of

as it was a normal tendency 27 is the result.
xɛ {y| 207.9-77.92≤y≤207.9+77.92}
Where x is the number of verses in the ith Juz’ of Sacred
Qur’a:n. ‘i’ is Natural Number
1≤i≤30
Also
6237 = (207)(30)+27

If we take

Then

Σ|x - μ|=2338.124

[Σ|x - μ|]\n, n=30

[Σ|x - μ|]\30 =77.93746

Also

2338.124 = [77][30]+28.124

The remainder is 28.124

It is just one more than 27

Also

6236 = {207}{30}+26

26 is just one less than 27

According to

According to the research of Dr ‘:Abdul H:afi:z: Fad:ili: the total number of verses of Surah An-Nisā’ of
the Qurān is 177 whereas it is 176
according to other calculators.

http://www.ijhssnet.com/journals/Vol_2_No_19_Special_Issue_October_2012/27.pdf

It may be the case that Dr Fa:d:ili: has taken one of the Gh:air Ku:fic ‘Aya:t in Kufic ‘A:yat.

How ever if only one of the two opinions given above is true then the number of verses once again
become 6237.

So once may recalculate himself if he partially agree with the learned scholar stated above.

Finally it may also be noted that there are 8 Ruba:’ in each Part. Thus 240 Ruba:’: in each Part of Sacred
Qur’a:n. As the Verses vary in length , it is impossible to divide them equally in Rub-‘: [Pl: Ruba:’:].

But it is surprising to note that the average number of verses in each ruba’: is 25.98333, if the verses are
taken as 6236.

6236= [25][240]+236

The remainder =236 , which is very close to the diviser 240.

If instead of 6236 . the number 6237 is taken then according division algorithm as follow

Page 14 of 21
 Page 15 of 21

6237= [25][240]+237

Rem =237 , more close to the number 240.

Also this means that the average number was taken as 25 in each Rub-‘: , chopping or neglecting the
fractional or decimal part.

Once again it is a very very strong probability if not certainty that the number Ruba’: in Sacred Qur’an
were selected so that there would be an average [‘Ausat:] of 25 veres , neglecting the fractional
[decimal] parts.

An answer to an objection

An objection is made that there is a Surah , which is divided such that only one of its verse is in one part
and all the verses are in the next part.

But the wisdom behind this , is to provide an irrefutable proof that the parts were suggested
independent of the division of Surahs.

As there is an ‘Isjama:’ on the

So the average number of verses over the

Divisions of Sacred Qur’an, 240 Ruba:’ ,60 ‘Ah:za:b, , it is not an objection that such division is not found
in Qur’a:n and H:adi:th: . Since ‘Ijma:’: is itself a source of ‘Isla:m.

More than 800 years have passed and no one has criticized this most powerful ‘Ijma:’: .

Inspite of all this Mr. Jhelum calls these Holy Divisions of Sacred Qur’a:n as BLUNDER several time in his
lecture, [‘Astagh:farullahVa Na’:u:dh:ubillah] , which is disgrace and disrespect of holy ‘Ijma:’: .

Conclusions

1] There is an irrefutable ‘Ijma:’: on the 30 Holy Parts of Sacred Qur’a:n , so to call is a Blunder is a
disgrace . and who so ever calls it a Blunder , becomes an heretic at best and an Apostate at worst.

2] The Canon of Sacred Qur’a:n cannot be reopened or any alleged correction in the division or change
in the number of Division , which is 30.

3] There is a wisdom in the division in 30 parts, 60 ‘Ah:za:b, 240 Ruba:’: .

4] There is a divine assistance in the ‘Ijma:’: of mentioned above divisions.

01:10:1441 AH /HE

[HE=Hijrah Era]

5:23:2020 CE

Note:

It was reported from Yazid bin Abdullah, from Abdullah bin Amr (RA), that he said, “O Allah’s Messenger
(PBUH)! In how many days should I recite Qur’an?” He (the Prophet, PBUH) replied, “In one month.” I
said, “I am capable of more!” – and he made it less, until he said, “Recite it in seven.” So he (Abdullah
bin Amr, RA) said, “I am capable of more!” But he (the Prophet, PBUH) said,

“He who recites it in less than three (days) will not understand it.”

(Hadith No. 1390, Chapters pertaining to the Month of Ramadan, Sunan Abu Dawud, Vol. 2).

A number of scholars have derived and deduced a permission for reciting the Whole Sacred qur’a:n in
thee days.

Also

It was narrated from Abdullah bin Amr (RA) that Allah’s Messenger (PBUH) said, “No one properly
understands who reads the Qur’an in less than three days.”

(Hadith No. 1347, Chapters of Establishing Prayer & Sunnah regarding them, Sunan Ibn Majah, Vol. 2).

Also

Page 16 of 21
 Page 17 of 21

It was reported from Abu Salamah, from Abdullah bin Amr (RA) that the Prophet (PBUH) said, “Recite
the Qur’an in one month.” He responded, “I find myself (more) energetic.” The Prophet (PBUH) said,
“Recite it in twenty (days).” He responded, “I find myself (more) energetic.” The Prophet (PBUH) said,
“Recite it in fifteen.” He responded, “I find myself (more) energetic.” The Prophet (PBUH) said,

“Recite it in ten.”

He responded, “I find myself (more) energetic.” So he (the Prophet, PBUH) said, “Recite it in seven and
do not do more than that.”

(Hadith No. 1388, Chapters pertaining to the Month of Ramadan, Sunan Abu Dawud, Vol. 2).

So a division was made in 30 parts since 30 is LCM of 3 and 10.

This is a different approach from division in 7 Manazil.

LCM (3,10)=30

Similarly LCM(3,10,15)= 30

So division of Sacred Qur’a:n in Thirty Parts is very helpful in recitation of Sacred Qur’a:n for those who
want to recite it in 3 or 10 or 15 days.

How ever some more things are needed according to 6236 Kufic verses +1 Bismillah independent of all
Surahs as in Tara:vi:h: .

So the number is 6237.

The average verses in 3 days

6237\3

6237 = (2079)(3)+0

A perfect division

Average verses in 10 days

6237\10 = 623.7

6237 = (623)(10)+7

Rem 7 Just one more than number 6 , which is divisible by 3.

How ever if it is discarded since it is not divisible by 3 , even then there is a good approximation for the
other two. Once is just above and one is just below.

Average verses in 15 days

Page 17 of 21
 Page 18 of 21

6237\15 = 415.8

6237 = (415)(15)+12

12 is divisible by 3

How ever it is not possible to divide verses exactly in the average , since they are of unequal lengths.

Number of verses in Parts 1 to 10 =1328 [Including Bismillah asan independent verse , independent of
all Surahs, as we see in Tara:vi:h:]Number of Verses in Parts 11 to 20 =2085.

Number of Surahs in Parts 21 to 30 =2851
