ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Quran code

Well kiddo, the Quran code is a way that people can look for special patterns and messages hidden within the Quran.

You know how sometimes you put together a puzzle and the picture starts to form? It's kind of like that. Some people believe that the verses in the Quran have certain patterns and meanings that can only be seen if you look at them a certain way.

For example, some people think that if you take every 18th verse in the Quran, you will see a pattern. The first letters of each verse spell out a message from God. Other people think that if you count the number of times certain words appear in the Quran, you'll be able to find hidden meanings.

Some people believe that these patterns and messages are proof that the Quran is a miracle sent from God. But other people disagree and think that these patterns are just a coincidence.

So you see, kiddo, the Quran code is a way for people to try to understand the Quran in a deeper way. Some people believe it holds hidden messages, and others think it's just a way for people to see what they want to see.
