The ‘ayn is the eighteenth letter of the Arab alphabet.
In the science of the secrets of letters it represents number seventy and belongs to the element of earth.
It symbolizes the source of intellect.
Shaykh ad-Dabbaagh informs us that the ‘ayn’ corresponds to forgiveness, which is a part of prophecy.
