The word(s) "was" appears 365 time(s) in 307 verse(s) in Quran in Muhammad Habib Shakir translation.

(131) The offspring of those whom We bore with Nuh; surely he was a grateful servant.

(132) So when the promise for the first of the two came, We sent over you Our servants, of mighty prowess, so they went to and fro among the houses, and it was a promise to be accomplished.

(133) And make yourself submissively gentle to them with compassion, and say: O my Lord! have compassion on them, as they brought me up (when I was) little.

(134) And give to the near of kin his due and (to) the needy and the wayfarer, and do not squander wastefully.

(135) And they say: Glory be to our Lord! most surely the promise of our Lord was to be fulfilled.

(136) Then We raised them up that We might know which of the two parties was best able to compute the time for which they remained.

(137) Surely (as for) those who believe and do good, We do not waste the reward of him who does a good work.

(138) And he entered his garden while he was unjust to himself. He said: I do not think that this will ever perish

(139) And his wealth was destroyed; so he began to wring his hands for what he had spent on it, while it lay, having fallen down upon its roofs, and he said: Ah me! would that I had not associated anyone with my Lord.

(140) And when We said to the angels: Make obeisance to Adam; they made obeisance but Iblis (did it not). He was of the jinn, so he transgressed the commandment of his Lord. What! would you then take him and his offspring for friends rather than Me, and they are your enemies? Evil is (this) change for the unjust.
