Criticism
Received
“Do you
know the meaning of paper?
0 ÷ 0 = 0: represents complete
transformation?
You wrote the history of the number system along with the dynamic number zero,
an abstract idea. You claim that it is part of the number system—how?”

✅ Scholarly Response to the Criticism
1. Understanding the Purpose of the Paper
Clarification:
This paper is not a speculative essay. It is a scholarly exploration of
a new paradigm in mathematical and physical thinking, rooted in:
- The Quranic concept of time and
transformation (Surah Al-Asr)
- Modern limitations in number
theory and division by zero
- The need for a time-aware,
event-based number interpretation
Purpose of
the Paper:
To propose a redefinition of numerical behavior based on dynamic events—a
system where time, direction, and change become mathematical
parameters.
2. The Statement: 0 ÷ 0 = 0 as Complete Transformation
Traditional
View:
In classical mathematics:
- 0 ÷ 0 is undefined
because it can represent any number (ambiguous result).
- It's considered an
indeterminate form in calculus.
ADNS View:
- In Al-Asr Dynamic Number System,
every operation must reflect a real, time-bound, and event-based
transition.
- 0 ÷ 0 = 0 is defined as a complete
transformation with zero residue:
- An action begins from nothing
(0),
- Ends in a state of total
transition (0),
- Meaning: the process occurred,
but the net measurable output = 0.
Example:
- Melting and vaporizing ice: If all mass converts and
disperses as vapor, no physical ice remains → Mass m = 0, Input Energy =
0, Net Result = 0.
- But an event occurred:
energy was applied, molecules changed states.
This
aligns with thermodynamic entropy and quantum transformations
(wave collapse).
3. Rooted in Quranic Philosophy: Surah Al-Asr
Ùˆَالْعَصْرِ – “By Time”
(Qur’an 103:1)
The entire ADNS framework is grounded in:
- Time-bound reality: every number
is attached to a process (duration-based).
- Gain/loss: Numbers are
directional, representing states of benefit or decay.
🕰
In this view, 0 is not emptiness, it is a moment of transition —
a bridge.
4. Abstract Concepts in Mathematics Have Precedent
To respond
to the claim that "dynamic zero is an abstract idea," we present:
|
Concept |
Was Once Abstract? |
Accepted Today? |
|
Imaginary Number (√−1) |
Yes – Thought to be useless |
Yes – Used in engineering and
quantum physics |
|
Infinity (∞) |
Abstract |
Used in calculus, limits |
|
Zero itself |
Once rejected by Greeks |
Now foundational in math |
|
Negative numbers |
Once considered impossible |
Standard today |
➡🕰 ADNS follows this historical pattern: challenging
old limitations with new functional utility.
5. Historical Continuity: Number System Evolution
Your paper
presents:
- Prehistoric counting methods
(tally marks, clay tokens)
- Egyptian base-10 system
(Prophet Yusuf’s grain system)
- Hindu-Arabic numeral system
with positional zero
- ADNS as a natural extension
in the event-based digital era
We are not
replacing old math,
but expanding the language of numbers to include dynamic time-based
meaning.
📚 Scientific
& Philosophical References
- Physics: Energy transformations that
yield no visible matter (E.g., complete annihilation: 0 remains).
- Quantum Mechanics: Observer-dependent reality,
waveform collapse = transformation of undefined state to definite outcome.
- Thermodynamics: Systems can undergo change
(entropy) without leaving physical traces.
- Calculus: l'Hôpital's Rule helps interpret
0/0 as limit behavior – ADNS interprets it as meaningful state change.
✅ Conclusion
“0 ÷ 0 =
0” in ADNS is not mathematical heresy.
It is a bold philosophical assertion rooted in Quranic insight, thermodynamic
reasoning, and historical evolution of number theory.
This new
interpretation:
- Gives zero a dynamic
identity
- Embraces change, not static
state
- Introduces numbers as event-based
entities tied to time (Al-Asr)
Respected
Professor Doctor Sahib,
We
warmly welcome your questions and critical insights, especially regarding our
original research. With sincerity and clarity, we offer this concise and
fact-based response to your thoughtful queries.
Our
definition of 0 ÷ 0 = 0 represents the concept of total
transformation, where an event begins and ends at zero — signifying a
complete but trace-free change. This concept is central to the Al-Asr
Dynamic Number System (ADNS), which views numbers not as static values but as
event-based, time-bound entities, aligned with the Quranic perspective
of creation and transformation.
Thank
you for engaging in this important dialogue. We value your contribution in
advancing this scientific and philosophical journey.
With
respect and appreciation,
GM Shahzad
