Word path · where أ-ل-ف falls in the muṣḥaf
Each cell is one page of the 604-page Madanī muṣḥaf, lit in proportion to how many times أ-ل-ف occurs on it. Counted, not interpreted — a bright page is where the word is dense, which is a fact about vocabulary and not a claim about what the page teaches.
Densest in juzʾ 10 (7 occurrences). The longest stretch without it runs 141 pages — pages 197–337, juzʾ 10–17.
