This article lists all occurrences of the words ''iman'' (إِيمَٰن) and ''kufr'' (كُفْر) in the Qur'an. The purpose is to analyze the claim (miracle) that they both appear 25 times in the genitive.
==Genitive==
Most Arabic words have a trilateral root.
* ''iman'' has the root امن (i-m-n)
* ''kufr'' has the root كفر (k-f-r)
From these roots we can derive many words by adding (or sometimes dropping) letters like:
* '''''k'''u'''ff'''a'''r''''' - "disbelievers"
* ''mu''''m'''i'''n'''een'' - "believers"
* '''''a''''''m'''a'''n'''na'' - "we believe"
* ''na'''k''''''f'''u'''r'''u'' - "we disbelieve"
