Aisha (May Allah be pleased with her) reported
Allah’s Messenger (Peace be upon him) as saying:
“Everyone has been created with three hundred and
sixty Joints.
Whoever mentions Allah’s greatness (says Allahu
Akbar), praises Allah, extols Allah, and seeks
forgiveness from Allah and removes stones from
the path of the people, enjoins what is good and
forbids the evil to the amount of those three
hundred and sixty joints (sulama), he walks on
that Day (of Judgment) having distanced himself
from the Hell fire.”
(Sahih Muslim, The Book of Zakat, Number 2199)
Narrated Buraydah ibn al-Hasib (May Allah be
pleased with him):
“I heard the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him)
say,
“A human being has three hundred and sixty joints
for each of which he must give alms. “
The people asked him: “Who is capable of doing
this?”
He replied:” It may be mucus in the mosque which
you bury, and something which you remove from
the road; but if you do not find such, two rak’ahs
in the forenoon will be sufficient for you.“
(Sunan Abu-Dawud, General Behavior (Kitab Al-
Adab), Book 41, Number 5222)
The Scientific Fact: The joint is a point of
articulation of two bones, a bone and gristle, or
two gristles in anypart of the human body.
The total number of joints, according to scientists,
are:
1- Skull joints: 86
2- Throat joints: 6
3- Thorax joints: 66
4- Spine and Pelvis joints: 76
5- Upper limbs: 32 x 2 = 64
6- Lower limbs: 31 x 2= 62
Total number of joints: 360
Facets of Scientific Inimitability: Our beloved
Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him), said
that there are three hundred and sixty joints in the
human body. He declared this fact when although
at that time it was impossible to know such
information with precision as most of these joints
are fine and in positions where it is hard to notice.
The exact number of joints was not discovered
until development in the fields of anatomy and
histology.
Thus, the Prophet (peace be upon him) accurately
pinpointed the number of joints fourteen centuries
ago while modern anatomy came to assert this
scientific fact only recently.
This is yet another miracle of the miracles of the
revelation that nobody knew at the period of the
Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him).
Allah says in the Noble Quran;
"We will show them Our signs in the horizons and
within themselves until it becomes clear to them
that it is the truth. But is it not sufficient
concerning your Lord that He is, over all things, a
Witness?"
(41:53)
