Pearl of Wisdom
											
	'Allah the Glorified has made asking for forgiveness a means for increasing the sustenance of the people and His mercy upon them and He the Glorified has said: ask for forgiveness from your Lord, verily He is all forgiving. Therefore, the mercy of Allah be upon he who repents and asks for abandoning his sin and does good deeds before the arrival of his death.'
 Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib [as] Nahj al-Baldgha, Sermon 143

					Harm and Benefi			 | 
				
		
				
		 		 | 
					 
 
| 
       The word “darran” which means harm and the  opposite “nefan” which means        benefit are used in these forms equally 9 times. The interesting  point is        that in 8 of these 9 repetitions, these two words are used  emphasizing the        opposite meanings involved and used in the same verse. There is a        mathematical miracle in this repetition’s being not 9 but 8. If  all these        repetitions were in conjunction, there would be 9 repetition  symmetries in        the use. So the 8 times repetition shows the relation between  these words        and 1 time separate use shows the mathematical miracle. The verses  these        two words are used in conjunction are as follows: 5.The Feast 76,  7.The        Purgatory 188, 10.Jonah 49, 13.The Thunder16, 20.Ta-Ha 89, 25. The         Distinguisher 3, 34.Sheba 42, and 48.Victory 11. Apart from these 8  uses,        the word “harm” (darran) is used in the sura Jinn’s 21st verse,  and the        word “benefit” (nefan) is mentioned in the sura Women 11th verse  only        once. The following is an example of these words’ being used  together:        76-         Say”Would you worship besides God powerless idols who can neither  harm        you, nor benefit you”                                                                    5. The Feast, 76                            |            The word |                       Number of  occurrence |                               | Harm             |            9 |                               | Benefit             |            9 |
