Question:
What is the wisdom behind the number seventy and seven appearing more frequently than others in the Noble Qur'an?
Answer:
Allah knows best. I do not prefer, nor do I approve of, attaching significance to these numbers and believing that they indicate something. These numbers come according to the context of the speech and the report in which they appear. The intention is not directed at the numbers themselves, nor that they indicate pessimism or optimism, or anything else that the superstitious believe. Yes.
