عَلَيْهَا تِسْعَةَ عَشَرَ
"Over it is nineteen"
Verse 30
Introduction
The word "Al-Muddaththir" means "the hidden one, the cloaked one". This name symbolically represents the emergence of the mathematical miracle that had been hidden for 1400 years through this chapter.
Al-Muddaththir, the 74th chapter of the Quran, holds the key to its mathematical miracle. Particularly with its 30th verse "Over it is nineteen", it reveals the significance of the number 19.

Verses 1-10: The Call and Warning
O you hidden secret.
Come out and warn.
Extol your Lord.
Purify your garment.
Forsake what is wrong.
Be content with your lot.
Steadfastly commemorate your Lord.
Then, when the horn is blown.
That will be a difficult day.
For the disbelievers, not easy.
Verses 11-25: Portrait of the Disbeliever
Let Me deal with one I created as an individual.
I provided him with lots of money.
And children to behold.
I made everything easy for him.
Yet, he is greedy for more.
He stubbornly refused to accept these proofs.
I will increasingly punish him.
For he reflected, then decided.
Miserable is what he decided.
Miserable indeed is what he decided.
He looked.
He frowned and whined.
Then he turned away arrogantly.
He said, "This is but clever magic!
"This is human made."
⭐Verses 26-37: Declaration of Nineteen
I will commit him to retribution.
What retribution!
Thorough and comprehensive.
Obvious to all the people.
Over it is nineteen.
The key to the Quran's mathematical miracle
We appointed angels to be guardians of Hell, and we assigned their number (19):
• To disturb the disbelievers
• To convince Christians and Jews
• To strengthen faith of the faithful
• To remove all traces of doubt
• To expose the hypocrites
Absolutely, (I swear) by the moon.
And the night as it passes.
And the morning as it shines.
This is one of the great miracles.
A warning to the human race.
For those among you who wish to advance, or regress.
Verses 38-56: Conclusion and Warning
Every soul is trapped by its sins.
Except for those on the right.
While in Paradise, they will ask.
About the guilty.
"What brought you to this retribution?"
They will say, "We did not observe the contact prayers (Salat).
"We did not feed the poor.
"We blundered with the blunderers.
"We disbelieved in the Day of Judgment.
"Until certainty came to us now."
The intercession of the intercessors will never help them.
Why are they so averse to this reminder?
Running like zebras.
Who are fleeing from the lion!
Does each one of them want to receive the scripture personally?
Indeed, they do not fear the Hereafter.
Indeed, this is a reminder.
For those who wish to take heed.
They cannot take heed against GOD's will. He is the source of righteousness; He is the source of forgiveness.
