'''Al-Kursī Verse''' (Arabic: {{ia|آیة الکرسی}}) is the [[verse]] 255 of the [[Qur'an 2]] (Sura al-Baqara) in [[Qur'an]]. Some interpreters of Qur'an have taken its following two verses (256-257) to be part of the al-Kursi Verse. This is the only verse in Qur'an in which "[[God]]'s Kursi (seat or throne)" is mentioned as extending to the heavens and the Earth. This is why the verse was known as the al-Kursi Verse. It was called so since the time of the [[Prophet (s)]].
