The Quran is the holy book of Islam and consists of 114 chapters or surahs, each containing verses known as ayahs. Surahs vary in length from a few verses to several pages. The surahs are arranged in order of decreasing length, with the exception of the first surah, which is a short prayer, and the last surah, which is often recited as a protective charm.

The Quran is considered by Muslims to be the literal word of God, revealed to the Prophet Muhammad over a period of 23 years. It is the primary source of Islamic law and ethics, and is widely regarded as one of the most influential works of literature in human history.
