The word(s) "first" appears 63 time(s) in 59 verse(s) in Quran in Mohsin Khan translation.

(41) "There is nothing but our first death, and we shall not be resurrected.

(42) They will never taste death therein except the first death (of this world), and He will save them from the torment of the blazing Fire,

(43) Say (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم): "I am not a new thing among the Messengers (of Allah i.e. I am not the first Messenger) nor do I know what will be done with me or with you. I only follow that which is revealed to me, and I am but a plain warner."

(44) Were We then tired with the first creation? Nay, they are in confused doubt about a new creation (i.e. Resurrection).

(45) But to Allah belongs the last (Hereafter) and the first (the world).

(46) And those foremost [(in Islamic Faith of Monotheism and in performing righteous deeds) in the life of this world on the very first call for to embrace Islam] will be foremost (in Paradise).

(47) A multitude of those (foremost) will be from the first generations (who embraced Islam).

(48) A multitude of those (on the Right Hand) will be from the first generation (who embraced Islam).

(49) And indeed, you have already known the first form of creation (i.e. the creation of Adam): why then do you not remember (or take heed)?

(50) He is the first (nothing is before Him) and the Last (nothing is after Him), the Most High (nothing is above Him) and the Most Near (nothing is nearer than Him). And He is the All-Knower of every thing.
