I always knew those letters were not just letters. It has meanings.
Hidden meanings written like a code, encrypted code. Why do I have this
thought?
1. Al Qur’an is perfect – Therefore, no letters are meaningless.
2. Understanding Qur’an – there are 7 stages of meanings. The more we learn, insyaAllah we’ll be able to understand it better.
And now I found the answer… Magnificent He who created Qur’an.. Subhanallah..

This is a very enlightening extract i came across and would like
to share with my bros and sisters in Faith, may Allah raise your ranks
in ibaada.. inshAllah!
“From a lengthy tradition dealing with Sa’ad bin Abdullah Ash’ari’s meeting with Imam al Mahdi (a.t.f.s.), in which Sa’ad
asked Imam al Mahdi (a.t.f.s.) the interpretation regarding the words:
Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Swad in Surah al Maryam. Imam replied, “These words are from the concealed codes regarding
which Allah informed His Servant the Prophet Zakariyah (a.s.) and
regarding which it was revealed to the Holy Prophet Mohammad (s.a.w.s.).
The incident is as follows: Prophet Zakariyah (a.s.) asked his Lord to
teach him the names of the Five Pure Ones, to which Jibra’eel descended
and taught him the five names. Whenever Prophet Zakariyah (a.s.) recited
the four names, Mohammad (s.a.w.s.), Ali (a.s.), Fatemah (a.s.) and
Hasan (a.s.), his heart would be enlightened and his sorrow would part
away, but when he took the name of Husain (a.s.) he would become
sorrowful and turn restless. One day he asked Allah Almighty, “My Lord!
When I utter the names of these four Pure Personalities, my sorrow
parts away, but when I take the name of Husain, I turn sorrowful and
weep & wail.” Then Allah, the Mighty the Sublime revealed to him
regarding Kaf, Ha, Ya, Ain, Swad. Kaf stands for Karbala, and Ha for
Halakah (perdition) of the Prophet’s Household, Ya for Yazid, the
oppresser and murderer of Husain (a.s.), Ain for Atash (thirst), and
Swad for (Sabr) Patience and forbearance of Husain. When Prophet
Zakariyah heard this he was so much grieved that for three consecutive
days he refused to come out of his place of worship and did not permit
people to meet him, and remained grief-stricken and wept profusely. And
he recited the following elegy: O Lord! Will you let the best of
Creatures see the plight of his son? O Lord! Will you allow this
disaster to fall upon his House-hold? O Lord! Will you let Ali and
Fatemah wear the dress of grief and will they witness this calamity”? He
(Prophet Zakariyah) would always say, “O Lord! Bestow upon me with a
son who would be the light of my eyes in my old-age, and when you
present me with a son make my love intense for him and then let me taste
the grief of his loss as Your Friend Mohammad (s.a.w.s.) who will mourn
the death of his son. Thus Allah blessed Prophet Zakariyah (a.s.) with a
son Prophet Yahya (a.s.) whose death was mourned by Prophet Zakariyah.
Prophet Yahya (a.s.)’s period of (his mother’s) pregnancy was six
months similar to that of Imam Husain (a.s.).”
……
in another tradition……
“Allamah Majlisi has quoted in Biharul Anwar, that the author of
Durrus Sameen has written in the interpretation of the following verse
of the Qur’an,
“Then Adam received from his Lord (certain) words, and Allah turned to him (mercifully)” [16]
That Prophet Adam (a.s.) saw the names of Prophet Mohammad
(s.a.w.s.) and Imams (a.s.) written on the base of the Empyrean (Arsh)
and Jibra’eel instructed him to say: O the Praiseworthy (Hameed), by the
right of Mohammad (s.a.w.s.), O Most High (Ali), by the right of Ali, O
Creator (Fatir), by the right of Fatemah, O Benevolent (Mohsin), by the
right of Hasan and Husain, and from you is goodness. When Prophet Adam
uttered the name of Husain his eyes were filled with tears and his heart
was pained. Adam told Jibra’eel, “O brother Jibra’eel! When I take the name of the fifth one
among them, my eyes get filled with tears and my heart gets shattered.”
Jibra’eel replied, “This son of yours (Husain) will be
surrounded by such afflictions that all other calamities will seem low
and less when compared to it.” Prophet Adam asked Jibra’eel as to what
those afflictions would be, to which Jibra’eel replied, “He will be
killed as a thirsty, forlorn and a lonely traveller. He will have no
friend or helper. Would that you see him calling out: O thirst! O
loneliness! and his thirst would spread between him and the heavens like
smoke. No one will answer his call except the swords and the rain of
death, and he will be butchered like a sheep from the back of his neck.
And the enemies will rob the belongings from his tents, and his blessed
head, while those of his companions, will be paraded on the points of
lances in the cities in the midst of his (imprisoned) ladies. Thus it
has been revealed in the knowledge of the Lord.” Thus Prophet Adam and
Jibra’eel both started weeping as a mother weeps over the loss of her
son.
And it has been narrated from other trustworthy reports, that on
the day of Eid, Imam Hasan (a.s.) and Imam Husain (a.s.) entered the
house of their Grandfather the Prophet of Allah Mohammad (s.a.w.s.) and
said,
“O grandfather! Today is the day of Eid, and the children of
Arabs have worn new and colourful clothes, while we do not have any new
dress with us, hence we have come to you.”
The Prophet pondered over their state and wept that he did not
have a dress with him suitable for them, nor did he desire to send them
disheartened and with a broken heart. He lifted his hands and prayed,
“O Allah! Make ammends for their and their mother’s heart.”
Suddenly Jibra’eel descended with two white dresses among the dresses of Paradise. The Prophet was overjoyed and said,
“O Masters of the youth of Paradise! Take these dresses which
have been stitched by the tailor (from Allah) according to your sizes.”
Both the Imams saw that the dresses were white in colour and
hence said, “O Grandfather! These are of white colour, how can we wear
it, when the children of Arabs have worn colourful clothes”?
The Prophet put his head down and started thinking about it when
Jibra’eel said, “O Mohammad (s.a.w.s.)! Rejoice and cool your eyes. The
powerful dyer of the Divine colour will fulfil their desire and make
them happy by those colours which they desire. Hence O Prophet, do order
that a ewer and vessel be brought.”
A vessel was brought and Jibra’eel said, “O Prophet of Allah! I
shall pour water over these dresses and you wring them until the desired
colour appears. The Prophet soaked the dress of Imam Hasan (a.s.) and
said,
“Which colour do you desire”?
Imam Hasan (a.s.) replied that he preferred the green colour, to
which the Prophet rubbed the dress with his own hands which turned into
bright green colour similar to emeralds, by the will and command of
Allah. He then handed it over to Imam Hasan (a.s.) who wore it. Then
Jibra’eel took another dress and started pouring water in the vessel.
The Prophet then turned towards Imam Husain (a.s.), who was of five
years of age at that time, and asked, “O light of my eyes! Which colour
do you desire”?
To which Husain replied that he preferred the red colour. The
Prophet again rubbed the dress with his own blessed hands and it turned
into bright red colour similar to rubies. He then handed it over to Imam
Husain (a.s.) who wore it too. The Holy Prophet and both Imams were
overjoyed and they returned back to their mother. When Jibra’eel saw
this he started weeping. The Prophet said,
“O brother Jibra’eel! This is not the day to mourn, when my sons
are rejoicing and are happy. By Allah! Please let me know the reason
for your grief.”
Jibra’eel replied, “I mourn because your sons have selected one
colour each. As regards your son Hasan, he will be poisoned and because
of it’s effect his body will turn green. And as regards your other son
Husain, be will be killed by swords and his head severed, while his body
will be smeared with red blood.” Hearing this the Prophet started
weeping and his sorrow increased.
[16] Surah al Baraqah: 37.
