Quran Surah Names List

The Quran Surah Names List  is divided into 114 chapters, or surahs, of varied length. There are both short and long verses in every chapter. While the biggest chapter contains 286 verses, the shortest just has 3. Over the course of 23 years, the Prophet (SAW) was in Makkah for the first 13 years and then roughly 10 years in Madinah when the Quran was revealed to him.

The Prophet (SAW) named the majority of the surahs in the Qur'an. The Prophet's companions gave some surahs names, like Al-Isra or Al-Zumar, for example. Many chapters are given names based on the major idea or action that takes place there.

Many surahs have multiple names because of how the Prophet (SAW) and his sahaba referred to them. Consequently, you will discover that a surah has a different name in some copies of the Quran. Just the chapter name is changed; the text and contents are identical.
