Al-Quran is the eternal miracle. It is the last Book
of Allah sent for the guidance of humanity through
the last Prophet, Muhammad, peace be upon him
(PBUH).
Divisions of
the Quran
Al-Quran is divided into thirty equal divisions,
which are called juz in Arabic. There are 114
chapters, of varying length. The longest chapter is
Al-Baqarah consisting of 286 verses and the shortest
chapter is AlKawthar consisting of three verses
only. The whole Quran has 6,236 verses. It has 540
Rukus and seven Manzils.
The
chapters revealed before the migration of the
Prophet to Madina are called Makkan, whereas those
sent down after the migrations are called Madinan.
Topics
of the Chapters
Makkan chapters generally consist of brief sentences
which are full of enthusiasm, poetical, lofty and
brilliant. They stress the Unity and Majesty of
Allah, the Most Exalted, Most High (SWT), denounce
idol worship, promise paradise for the righteous and
warn wrongdoers of their punishment in Hellfire,
confirm the prophethood of Muhammad (PBUH), and
remind humanity of the past prophets and events of
their time.
On
the other hand, the Madinan chapters are lengthy and
the verses are more prosaic. They outline
ritualistic aspects of Islam such as Zakah, Fasting,
and Hajj, lay down moral and ethical codes, criminal
laws, social, economic, and state policies, give
guidelines for foreign relations, rules and
regulations for battle and the captives of war. They
also contain descriptions of some of the early
battles of Islam, condemnation of hypocrites,
emphasis on the unified basic message of all the
past prophets, and confirmation that the process of
prophethood and revelation is complete, so that no
Prophet will come after Muhammad [PBUH], no new book
will be revealed, and Allah's religion is complete
through Al-Quran. So here Allah [SWT] exhorted the
followers of truth to make Al-Quran as their only
guide.
