'''Sura''' (Arabic: سورة), in technical usage, means a part of [[the Qur'an]] that has a coherent content and has a beginning and an ending. The Qur'an has 114 suras beginning with [[sura al-Hamd]] and ending with [[sura al-Nas]]. Suras of the Qur'an, except for [[sura al-Tawba]], begin with "bism Allah" (English: "In the name of [[Allah]] the All-beneficent the All-merciful") phrase. The word "sura" is used 8 times in singular form and 1 time in plural. There's a disagreement about the order of suras being "[[Tawqifi]]" (specified by Allah) or "[[Ijtihadi]]" (by judgment of [[the companions]]). | '''Sura''' (Arabic: سورة), in technical usage, means a part of [[the Qur'an]] that has a coherent content and has a beginning and an ending.
