The
word "land" appears 13 times in the Qur'an and the word "sea" 32 times,
giving a total of 45 references. If we divide that number by that of
the number of references to the land we arrive at the figure
28.888888888889%. The number of total references to land and sea, 45,
divided by the number of references to the sea in the Qur'an, 32, is
71.111111111111%. Extraordinarily, these figures represent the exact
proportions of land and sea on the Earth today.
