A solar year consists of 365 days. Allah has revealed in the Qur’an that the number of months is set as 12. As the Moon returns to the full moon stage 12 times in a year, the division of the year into 12 for humanity is the result of natural development. 365/12 = 30.4 roughly 30 days is the 1-month time that passes between cycles of the moon. It is also one of the 12 parts of the solar calendar. It is an average number of days in a month. You can see that the Qur’an determines the number of words in accordance with this wisdom, paying attention to even the most subtle and sensitive points.
In the Qur’an, the word “days” appears 30 times, the word “month” appears 12 times.
2 different spelling patterns in the Qur’an according to the suffixes of the word days;

Note: When you search for the letters of the word أيام Eyyam, 29 results come instead of 27. But don’t let two of the results surprise you;
a) even though the word ey’murakum in verse 3.80 is the letters we seek, ey-murakum means “Does it command to you?”. An example of this can be seen as mistakenly counting the word” sun “in a text we call the word” day”. Therefore, only the repetition of the word days in the Qur’an is 28.
