	Makkan and Madinan Suras (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Suras of the Qur'an have also been classified, according to their origin, into Makkan and Madinan suras.
		A sura is said to be of Madinan origin, when its beginning was revealed in the Madinan phase, even if it has verses from the Makkan period in its text.

		The Qur'an consists of 114 suras (chapters) with a total of 6,236 ayat (verses) excluding the 112 Bismillahs which are mostly considered as unnumbered, or 6,348 including them; the exact number of ayat is disputed, not due to content dispute but due to different methods of counting.
