interesting observation #3
sūrat al-isrāʾ verse 97 contains the phrase عميًا وبكمًا وصمًا (blind, dumb, and deaf).
the sequence of these words in this particular verse is the reverse of what we usually read in the qurān:
صمٌّ بكمٌ عميٌ فهم لا يرجعون
“deaf, dumb, and blind, so they will not return [to the right path].” (Q 2:18)
صمٌّ بكمٌ عميٌ فهم لا يعقلون
“deaf, dumb, and blind, so they do not comprehend .” (Q 2:171)
key detail: in sūrat al-isrāʾ, the verse mentions that on the day of judgment, the disbelievers will be gathered on their faces, dragged upside down. since their bodies are physically flipped, the usual sequence of these words is also flipped.

In Arabic, the word for "hypocrite" is linguistically tied to the word for "tunnel".
The 3-letter root N-F-Q generates both "munaafiq" (hypocrite) and "nafaq" (tunnel).
A hypocrite is like someone who enters a tunnel, they hide their true self or exit from a different side than they entered.
This same root also covers "infaaq" (spending), implying money leaving through a hole.

قَالَ بِشْرُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ
Bishr ibn al-Sirrī (ra) said:
إِنَّمَا الْآيَةُ مِثْلُ التَّمْرَةِ، كُلَّمَا مَضَغْتَهَا اسْتَخْرَجْتَ حَلَاوَتَهَا
“An āyah is like a date: the more you chew it, the more you draw out its sweetness.”

The original root form of the number six should have been سِدْسَةٌ (based on the root س-د-س, which is why "sixth" is سَادِس).
But the actual word used is سِتَّةٌ.

Khalifah Umar ibn Khattab RA once said,
"تَعَلَّمُوا الْعَرَبِيَّةَ فَإِنَّهَا مِنْ دِينِكُمْ"
"Learn Arabic, for it is part of your religion."

{وَلۡيَعۡفُواْ وَلۡيَصۡفَحُوٓاْۗ أَلَا تُحِبُّونَ أَن يَغۡفِرَ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمۡۚ وَٱللَّهُ غَفُورٞ رَّحِيمٞ}
"Let them pardon and forgive. Do you not love that Allah should forgive you? And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."
[Sūrah An-Nūr: 22]
A tremendous benefit for the worldly disagreements that arise between spouses and family is this:
Pardoning and forgiving is a path to Allah's Mercy and Forgiveness.
Do you not love that Allah should forgive you?
These disagreements are not random.
They occur by Allah's decree and wisdom, and within them He has placed opportunities to implement this verse, earn His forgiveness, and attain His mercy.
We need reminders like this so that we recognize these opportunities instead of wasting them.
It is one of the doors through which Allah grants His servants His mercy, forgiveness, and—ultimately—Paradise.
So pardon and forgive one another, seeking the immense promise contained in this noble verse.
