<blockquote class="definition">The '''Quran''' (Koran), literally "to recite" is the central prophetic text of Islam. It is a text of wisdom said to have been ''revealed'' (i.e. [[Channeled]]) to [[Muhammad]] from [[God]]. Chapters in Quran are called suras and verses are called ayahs. The Quran consists of 114 sura each of which consists of several ayahs. </blockquote>

==Notes==

As in Christianity, interpretation of Quranic suras is typically left up to a [[Tafsir]] (i.e. [[Priests]]).

Like the Christian [[Gospels]], [[Muhammad]] had several "companions" who followed him around and wrote down the things that he said.

Compare Quran to [[Hadith]].
