The Arabic tutor video isn't saying these numerical miracles are true, he's saying they're not real e.g. I've seen someone claim the word 'yawm' meaning day is mentioned 365 times, this doesn't make sense as this is in accordance with the gregorian calendar and also... It's just not true. I'll try and finish the blogging theology one but the guy does mention this 19 thing which doesn't really make sense if I'm honest and I feel like you can infer the number 19, or any number, into any text
Dunno if this guy is a fan of that dajjal rashad khalifa, but he's dwelling on the alleged miracle relating to no. 19. Rashad khalifa was a murtad who outright denied 2 verses of the Quran only because his mathematical fantasy theories didn't add up. Dunno about these This guy's a mureed of the dajjal rashad. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rashad_Khalifa See pg 10 of his "translation" and also a page or two preceding it where he mentions jewish submitters and hindu submitters https://archive.org/details/quranfinaltestam00unit/mode/1up
There are few channels, blogs/websites, books dedicated to this theme. BinImad al-Ateeqi: Arabic Tutor: Quran Structure: https://www.youtube.com/@Quranstructure I haven't watched any of the above (and many more) to evaluate the reliability of claims. Viewers beware! ----- https://www.youtube.com/@9has127/videos http://www.journalofsubmission.com/ Fazely has an interesting channel on mathematical patterns. I have watched few of these randomly and in snatches. Fazely adds more mathematical rigour and sophistication in his videos.
@12:00 minutes Lessan makes few useful points against spurious numerical coincidences (which detract from the genuine miracles) --- Underwood Dudley has written couple of highly entertaining books on how numerical/mathematical coincidences that can be inferred from uncorrelated events. Numerology, or, What Pythagoras wrought The Magic Numbers of the Professor --- There was a thread on sunniport with post from @abu Hasan which cautioned against reading too much into numerical coincidences (especially on frequency of word repetitions). I can't seem to locate it now.
