The '''Qur'an''' is a collection of liturgical and homiletic texts of undetermined Jewish-Christian provenance dating to the 7th and 8th centuries CE which are regarded by Muslims as both divinely revealed in their unity to [[Muhammad]], the founding prophet of Islam, around the mid-7th century CE, and normative. It is usually divided into 114 chapters or Suras of unequal (decreasing) size counting from the 2nd one. Theological proclamation (kerygma) and polemics, moral reflection and paraenesis and legal advices, naturalistic poetry and apocalyptic discourses frame its complex and rather discontinuous style.
