Why do the numbers differ from one website to another?
- Some count the root (every word built on it), others a single word, others the exact form as written in the Mushaf: all three numbers are given here.
- Prefixes and suffixes (و، ب، ال…) are taken into account; a search on the raw text may miss some, or count words from another root that are spelled the same way.
- The counts follow the Hafs reading and the grammatical analysis of each of the 77,429 words of the Quran.
Results are ranked automatically: only texts of the Quran and translations of their meaning are shown, with no machine-written text. For a legal opinion, consult a scholar.
