“…Out of 114 surahs (chapters) of the Qur"an, six are titled after animals: Al-Baqarah (the Cow), al-An"am (the Cattles), al-Nahl (the Bee), al-Naml (the Ants), al-"Ankabut (the Spider), and al-Fil (the Elephant). But, as reported by Tlili [3], approximately thirty animal species are mentioned in various Qur"anic surahs. Only one surah bears a plant name, namely, al-Tin (the Fig), 95, but as Khafagi, Zakaria, Dewedar and El-Zahdany indicate, there are about 22 plants belonging to 17 families that are mentioned in the Qur"an [4].…”
