List of chapters in the Quran


The Quran is divided into Surahs and further divided into Ayahs. The real translation of the word Ayat is actually "Sign ". For a preliminary discussion about the chronological order of chapters see page Surah.
Each surah, except for the ninth is preceded by the phrase bismi-llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīm. 29 surahs are preceded by Muqatta'at, unique letter combinations whose meanings remain unclear. The first surah in the Quran is Surah al-Fatihah.
