Friday Tazkirah

-
During tazkirah before Friday juma'ah, the ustaz showed a stunning scatter chart. The x-axis was the arrangement of surah (or chapter) in Al-Quran, from An-Nas (the last surah 114th) to Al-Fatihah (the first surah). The y-axis is the number of ayahs (or ayats, verses) for the corresponding surah.

What I saw was just amazing. I wanted to reproduce the same chart. So, I charted like this:

surah, number of ayahs (ayats)
114, 6
113, 5
112, 4
111, 5
... ... and so on.

Then I plotted the numbers on the scatter chart. This is what I got. Can you see the Arabic calligraphic pattern in the chart? Any similarity to the image below the chart?

Love is laborious, is it not? A lot of effort needs to be put in when we love someone or something. After we put in all that effort, we feel something nice inside. Occasionally. This nice feeling accompanies the act of love. Sometimes we hear somebody tell us that he/she fell in love at first sight. That's not really love, is that? That's infatuation. Infatuation doesn't take any effort. It's a feeling that doesn't accompany any action. Love is accompanied by a nice feeling, occasionally. Occasionally, we feel bad. Because the person we love hurt us after all the labor ...
