The Quran
The Quran is the holy book of Islam, believed by Muslims to be the word of God as revealed to the Prophet Muhammad over 23 years. Written in Arabic, it consists of 114 chapters, known as Surahs, which cover various topics such as theology, morality, guidance for personal conduct, and social justice. The Quran emphasizes monotheism, the importance of faith, and ethical behavior. It is recited and memorized by millions around the world and serves as a primary source of law and spirituality in Islamic culture. It is regarded as untranslatable in its original form due to its linguistic depth.
