The Isolated Letters of the Qayyūm al-asmā'


UNDER REVISION -LAST UPDATED

19/1/09

 

Stephen Lambden UC-Merced

The isolated letter(s) are given below along with the(ir) abjad numerical value(s) -- not that these numeical values are necessarily significant as they are registered neither various important mss. consulted or in secondary sources. The following sources and mss. were consulted regarding the isolated letters of the QA.

(1) Muhammad Karam mss. 1261

(2) 1323 AH / 1905 CE.

(3) E. G. Browne, Coll. mss. F11

(4) ADD

(5) See the paragraph below.

A letter Q.  in the 5th column indicates a disconnected letter(s) or series of letters found in the Q.; often with x__ or cross referencing indicating how often these isolated letters occur in the Qur'an. If the letter Q. is in brackets (Q.) it indicates a possible extension, contraction or rearrangement of a qur'ānic series of isolated letters. Also in column  five (5) Qur'ānic and Qayyūm al-asmā' parallels registering extensions or  contractions or rearrangements of a given set of isolated letter(s) series  in the Q. and / or (elsewhere) in the Qayyūm al-asmā' itself are noted. It should further be noted that it appears from mss. I have seen four surahs of the Qayyūm al-asmā' are (like most qur'ānic surahs save 28 of the total 114) without isolated letters:  namely, Qayyūm al-asmā' sūrahs, 52, 64, 67 and 74. Why these are blank or without isolated letters remains unknown --  there may be some deep meaning or colored inks might, for example, have made caused the text to fade and become illegible??
