The Koran (Al-Koran according to Arabic pronunciation), is the sacred book or kind of bible for any entity that follows Islamic culture. According to history, the Quran is the record of the words (exact written) that were revealed by God (Allah), through the messenger angel Gabriel directly to Muhammad (Muhammad), whose messages were memorized and dictated to his companions; This sacred book is followed today by approximately one quarter of the world's population, that is, around 1.3 million individuals. The holy book of Muslims, is the same revelation identified in the Christian bible "the manifestation of God (Allah) to man", an event comparable to the appearance of Jesus in the Christian religion.
Because he dictated the events to his companions, Prophet Muhammad assured each of them that every word spoken was the divine revelation he had received. It should be noted that the events were not all written at once, since the disclosures of their disclosures are only mentioned in excerpts; that is to say that as soon as he received a message, Muhammad had the habit of communicating it to his companions, if they were not nearby he memorized each step of the event to achieve the exact dissemination of the information, when reciting the prayers many of his companions sought write them to generate thousands of copies.
The Muslims have traditionally called "Koran" only the original Arabic version, with the exact words of God and therefore, any translation is generally called "Meaning of the Qur'an." The book is divided into 114 chapters called suras, which are arranged in a very different way from the organization in the Bible; it does not contain a linear narrative (as for example in the creation story in Genesis). The suras are organized by subject, not a word of their 114 suras has been changed over the centuries; thus the Qur'an remains in every detail the same book as fourteen centuries ago. In only 200 years, already the word of God that was in the Koran inspiring the Arab peoples.
