The word(s) "a" appears 54955 time(s) in 6179 verse(s) in Quran in Abdullah Yusuf Ali translation.

(671) Forbidden to you (for food) are: dead meat, blood, the flesh of swine, and that on which hath been invoked the name of other than allah; that which hath been killed by strangling, or by a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by being gored to death; that which hath been (partly) eaten by a wild animal; unless ye are able to slaughter it (in due form); that which is sacrificed on stone (altars); (forbidden) also is the division (of meat) by raffling with arrows: that is impiety. This day have those who reject faith given up all hope of your religion: yet fear them not but fear Me. This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion. But if any is forced by hunger, with no inclination to transgression, allah is indeed Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

(672) They ask thee what is lawful to them (as food). Say: lawful unto you are (all) things good and pure: and what ye have taught your trained hunting animals (to catch) in the manner directed to you by allah: eat what they catch for you, but pronounce the name of allah over it: and fear allah; for allah is swift in taking account.

(673) This day are (all) things good and pure made lawful unto you. The food of the People of the Book is lawful unto you and yours is lawful unto them. (Lawful unto you in marriage) are (not only) chaste women who are believers, but chaste women among the People of the Book, revealed before your time,- when ye give them their due dowers, and desire chastity, not lewdness, nor secret intrigues if any one rejects faith, fruitless is his work, and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (all spiritual good).

(674) O ye who believe! when ye prepare for prayer, wash your faces, and your hands (and arms) to the elbows; Rub your heads (with water); and (wash) your feet to the ankles. If ye are in a state of ceremonial impurity, bathe your whole body. But if ye are ill, or on a journey, or one of you cometh from offices of nature, or ye have been in contact with women, and ye find no water, then take for yourselves clean sand or earth, and rub therewith your faces and hands, allah doth not wish to place you in a difficulty, but to make you clean, and to complete his favour to you, that ye may be grateful.

(675) and call in remembrance the favour of allah unto you, and His covenant, which He ratified with you, when ye said: "We hear and we obey": and fear allah, for allah knoweth well the secrets of your hearts.

(676) O ye who believe! stand out firmly for allah, as witnesses to fair dealing, and let not the hatred of others to you make you swerve to wrong and depart from justice. Be just: that is next to piety: and fear allah. For allah is well-acquainted with all that ye do.

(677) To those who believe and do deeds of righteousness hath allah promised forgiveness and a great reward.

(678) Those who reject faith and deny our signs will be companions of Hell-fire.

(679) O ye who believe! Call in remembrance the favour of allah unto you when certain men formed the design to stretch out their hands against you, but (allah) held back their hands from you: so fear allah. and on allah let believers put (all) their trust.

(680) allah did aforetime take a covenant from the Children of Israel, and we appointed twelve captains among them. and allah said: "I am with you: if ye (but) establish regular prayers, practise regular charity, believe in my messengers, honour and assist them, and loan to allah a beautiful loan, verily I will wipe out from you your evils, and admit you to gardens with rivers flowing beneath; but if any of you, after this, resisteth faith, he hath truly wandered from the path or rectitude."
