The word(s) "says" appears 38 time(s) in 35 verse(s) in Quran in Muhammad Habib Shakir translation.

(11) He said: So shall it be, your Lord says: It is easy to Me, and indeed I created you before, when you were nothing.

(12) He said: Even so; your Lord says: It is easy to Me: and that We may make him a sign to men and a mercy from Us, and it is a matter which has been decreed.

(13) It beseems not Allah that He should take to Himself a son, glory to be Him; when He has decreed a matter He only says to it "Be," and it is.

(14) And says man: What! when I am dead shall I truly be brought forth alive?

(15) Have you, then, seen him who disbelieves in Our communications and says: I shall certainly be given wealth and children?

(16) By no means! We write down what he says, and We will lengthen to him the length of the chastisement

(17) And We will inherit of him what he says, and he shall come to Us alone.

(18) Until when death overtakes one of them, he says: Send me back, my Lord, send me back;

(19) And among men is he who says: We believe in Allah; but when he is persecuted in (the way of) Allah he thinks the persecution of men to be as the chastisement of Allah; and if there come assistance from your Lord, they would most certainly say: Surely we were with you. What! is not Allah the best knower of what is in the breasts of mankind.

(20) And he strikes out a likeness for Us and forgets his own creation. says he: Who will give life to the bones when they are rotten?
