In The Name of Allãh The Beneficent The Merciful
The New Discovery [1] :
Along the former fourteen centuries of our religion our scholars kept honest enough to confess that they did not know exactly what those 14 letters mean.
They either humbled themselves saying : God only knows what those letters might mean, or used their sense to say : letters from which alQur'a̅n was designed, as a matter of a challenging miracle .
Some further more claimed mystic knowledge of it, and others could observe their mathematical order, a means though clearer it is, but still limited, and not perfectly satisfactory , though it follows an academic method , notifying the significance of such, Surahs being 29 in number just as the number of the Arabic Alphabet letters, countable ticknically somehow as 28 letters , while the letters addressing the Surahs are 14 in number, thus being lack of proof gave chance to the nun and named Muslims to raid (1) [2].
Now in our very age , it is truly good tidings to say that Alexandria University could say a clear-cut view , about those Opening Letters .
Ph.D. Mohammed Badri Abd L Jalil , whom I can say that I shared him many academic agonies has concentrated on the problem , just as soon as he finished with his PhD. to introduce his researches through the Egyptian magazine of MINBAR aL ISLAM . A theory, though I had not read it by then in such magazine having heard facts about it through him directly and confirmed about its possibility in a precedent M.A.degree research in my name through the same University, and resumed the attempt newly in Nigeria ; For the favor of the English reading muslim .
The theory depends a direct linguistic interpretation , by consulting the original meaning of each letter in the eloquent early Arab tongue , and the significance of each letter in the light of the patient analytical reading of the Holy Gardinaries ( Surahs ) in which these letter existed.*
