The word(s) "before" appears 367 time(s) in 352 verse(s) in Quran in Abdullah Yusuf Ali translation.

(191) We granted not to any man before thee permanent life (here): if then thou shouldst die, would they live permanently?

(192) Mocked were (many) messenger before thee; But their scoffers were hemmed in by the thing that they mocked.

(193) They said, "Then bring him before the eyes of the people, that they may bear witness."

(194) So We listened to him: and We granted him Yahya: We cured his wife's (Barrenness) for him. These (three) were ever quick in emulation in good works; they used to call on Us with love and reverence, and humble themselves before Us.

(195) Those for whom the good (record) from Us has gone before, will be removed far therefrom.

(196) before this We wrote in the Psalms, after the Message (given to Moses): My servants the righteous, shall inherit the earth."

(197) If they treat thy (mission) as false, so did the peoples before them (with their prophets),- the People of Noah, and 'Ad and Thamud;

(198) Never did We send a messenger or a prophet before thee, but, when he framed a desire, Satan threw some (vanity) into his desire: but Allah will cancel anything (vain) that Satan throws in, and Allah will confirm (and establish) His Signs: for Allah is full of Knowledge and Wisdom:

(199) He knows what is before them and what is behind them: and to Allah go back all questions (for decision).

(200) And strive in His cause as ye ought to strive, (with sincerity and under discipline). He has chosen you, and has imposed no difficulties on you in religion; it is the cult of your father Abraham. It is He Who has named you Muslims, both before and in this (Revelation); that the Messenger may be a witness for you, and ye be witnesses for mankind! So establish regular Prayer, give regular Charity, and hold fast to Allah! He is your Protector - the Best to protect and the Best to help!
