List of chapters in the Quran

Al-Fatiha, the first surah in the Quran

The Quran is divided into Surahs (chapters) and further divided into Ayahs (verses). The translation of the word Ayah is "Sign [of Allah]". For a preliminary discussion about the chronological order of chapters, see Surah.

Each surah except the ninth (At-Tawba) is preceded by the Tasmiah, phrase: bismi-llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm ("In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.").[1] Twenty-nine surahs are preceded by Muqatta'at (lit. abbreviated or shortened), unique letter combinations whose meanings are unknown. The first surah in the Quran is Al-Fatiha.[2]

Surahs of the Makkah period are more related to themes such as resurrection, judgment, and stories from Judaism and Christianity. Surahs of the Medina period focus more on laws for personal affairs, society, and the state.[3]

  2. ^ 'Ya Sin' has also been interpreted as the invocation 'O thou human being'. In this case, it is not counted as a Muqatta'at. Asad 1980, Footnote to the verse.
