Word path · where ب-و-أ falls in the muṣḥaf
Each cell is one page of the 604-page Madanī muṣḥaf, lit in proportion to how many times ب-و-أ 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 4 (3 occurrences). The longest stretch without it runs 79 pages — pages 467–545, juzʾ 24–28.
