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

(261) And they have invented a blood-relationship between Him and the Jinns: but the Jinns know (quite well) that they have indeed to appear (before his Judgment-Seat)!

(262) "If only we had had before us a Message from those of old,

(263) Already has Our Word been passed before (this) to our Servants sent (by Us),

(264) But when it descends into the open space before them, evil will be the morning for those who were warned (and heeded not)!

(265) How many generations before them did We destroy? In the end they cried (for mercy)- when there was no longer time for being saved!

(266) before them (were many who) rejected messengers,- the people of Noah, and 'Ad, and Pharaoh, the Lord of Stakes,

(267) They say: "Our Lord! hasten to us our sentence (even) before the Day of Account!"

(268) Behold, there were brought before him, at eventide coursers of the highest breeding, and swift of foot;

(269) When some trouble toucheth man, he crieth unto his Lord, turning to Him in repentance: but when He bestoweth a favour upon him as from Himself, (man) doth forget what he cried and prayed for before, and he doth set up rivals unto Allah, thus misleading others from Allah's Path. Say, "Enjoy thy blasphemy for a little while: verily thou art (one) of the Companions of the Fire!"

(270) Those before them (also) rejected (revelation), and so the Punishment came to them from directions they did not perceive.
