There's this Hadith someone posted on Facebook about the number of joints being 360 and he sent some links and pics from seatle orthopedic center and other resources confirming the number frankly I don't usually believe these things but I wanted a disclaimer from an authentic source to be sure .
Aisha reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: Every one of the children of Adam has been created with three hundred and sixty joints; so he who declares the Glory of Allah, praises Allah, declares Allah to be One, Glorifies Allah, and seeks forgiveness from Allah, and removes stone, or thorn, or bone from people's path, and enjoins what is good and forbids from evil, to the number of those three hundred and sixty-four, will walk that day having removed himself from Hell. (Translation of Sahih Muslim, The Book of Zakat (Kitab Al-Zakat), Book 005, Number 2199)"0
I'll appreciate your opinions and views on this matter.
Kind regards

Welcome huss97ein!
It wouldn't be a miracle to count the joints in a human corpse, but I don't think anyone can say it's exactly 360 because there isn't universal agreement on what counts as a joint. For instance, the Islamic count relies on counting the plates in our skulls as 'joints' where they fuse together. I wouldn't call those joints, myself, but that could be an Arabic vs. English thing, that English speakers usually think of joints as bones that have some freedom of movement in relation to each other controlled by muscles.
