{{Short description|Hypothetical mathematical code in the Quran}}

The term '''Quran code''' (also known as '''Code 19''') refers to the claim that the [[Quran|Quranic text]] contains a hidden mathematically complex [[code]]. Advocates think that the code represents a [[mathematics|mathematical]] proof of the [[God|divine]] authorship of the Quran, however this claim has not been validated by any independent mathematical or scientific institute. Proponents of the Quran code claim that the code is based on [[statistics|statistical]] procedures. The most notable proponent is [[Rashad Khalifa]] who, in 1969, described the Quranic initials through enumerations and distributions, and in 1974, claimed to have discovered a mathematical code hidden in the Quran, a code based around the number 19.
