What is the holy book of Islam called and what is its content?

The holy book of Islam is called the Quran, which is considered the word of God (Allah) as revealed to the Prophet Muhammad through the archangel Gabriel over a period of 23 years. It contains 114 chapters or Surahs, which are further divided into verses or Ayahs. The Quran is considered the primary source of Islamic law, morality, and theology, and is widely regarded as one of the finest works in Arabic literature. It is written in classical Arabic and is believed by Muslims to be the literal word of God, without any human alteration or distortion.

The Quran covers a wide range of topics, including the nature of God, the creation of the universe, the purpose of human life, and the afterlife. It contains stories of many prophets, including Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus, and emphasizes the importance of moral values such as compassion, justice, and honesty. The Quran also provides guidance on social and political issues, such as marriage, divorce, inheritance, and governance.

The Quran is considered a miraculous text in the Islamic tradition, both for its eloquence and for the fact that it was revealed in the Arabic language, which was considered by many to be the most refined and sophisticated language of its time. Muslims believe that the Quran is a guidebook for all of humanity and that it contains the final message of God to humanity.
