The word(s) "before" appears 360 time(s) in 348 verse(s) in Quran in Muhammad Habib Shakir translation.

(151) And the throes (of childbirth) compelled her to betake herself to the trunk of a palm tree. She said: Oh, would that I had died before this, and had been a thing quite forgotten!

(152) And we do not descend but by the command of your Lord; to Him belongs whatever is before us and whatever is behind us and whatever is between these, and your Lord is not forgetful.

(153) Does not man remember that We created him before, when he was nothing?

(154) And how many of the generations have We destroyed before them who were better in respect of goods and outward appearance!

(155) And how many a generation have We destroyed before them! Do you see any one of them or hear a sound of them?

(156) Saying: Put him into a chest, then cast it down into the river, then the river shall throw him on the shore; there shall take him up one who is an enemy to Me and enemy to him, and I cast down upon you love from Me, and that you might be brought up before My eyes;

(157) So we too will produce before you magic like it, therefore make between us and you an appointment, which we should not break, (neither) we nor you, (in) a central place.

(158) (Firon) said: You believe in him before I give you leave; most surely he is the chief of you who taught you enchantment, therefore I will certainly cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will certainly crucify you on the trunks of the palm trees, and certainly you will come to know which of us is the more severe and the more abiding in chastising.

(159) And certainly Haroun had said to them before: O my people! you are only tried by it, and surely your Lord is the Beneficent Allah, therefore follow me and obey my order.

(160) Thus do We relate to you (some) of the news of what has gone before; and indeed We have given to you a Reminder from Ourselves.
