We saw earlier that the word “day” in the Quran, with its singular, plural and derivative uses constitudes a miracle. Apart from this, the noun phrases of the same word also produce mathematical miracles as well. For example, we see this miracle in phrases like “that day” used in connection with the end of the world (yewme izin) and the “the day of resurrection day” (yewmül qiyameh). Both noun phrases are used; 70 times. Here are two example verses for these words:
Many faces will be joyous on that day. (88:8)
…the whole earth is within His fist on the day of resurrection. (39: 67)
