According to tradition, several of Muhammad's <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Companions_of_the_Prophet?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Companions of the Prophet">companions</a> served as scribes, recording the revelations. Shortly after Muhammad's death, the Quran was compiled on the order of the first caliph <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Abu_Bakr?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Abu Bakr">Abu Bakr</a> (<abbr title="reigned">r.</abbr> 632–634) by the companions, who had written down or memorized parts of it.

There are, however, <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Qira%27at?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Qira'at">variant readings</a>, with some differences in meaning. The Quran assumes the reader's <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Biblical_and_Quranic_narratives?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Biblical and Quranic narratives">familiarity with major narratives</a> recounted in the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Biblical_canon?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Biblical canon">Biblical</a> and <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Apocrypha?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Apocrypha">apocryphal texts</a>. It summarizes some, dwells at length on others and, in some cases, presents alternative accounts and interpretations of events. The Quran describes itself as a book of guidance for humankind (<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=auto&tl=en&hl=en-GB&u=https://quran.com/2?startingVerse%3D185">2:185</a>). It sometimes offers detailed accounts of specific historical events, and it often emphasizes the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Islamic_ethics?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Islamic ethics">moral significance</a> of an event over its narrative sequence. Supplementing the Quran with explanations for some cryptic Quranic narratives, and rulings that also provide the basis for <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Islamic_law?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Islamic law">Islamic law</a> in most denominations of Islam, are <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Hadith?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Hadith">hadiths</a>—oral and written traditions believed to describe words and actions of Muhammad. During <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Prayer?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#Islam" title="Prayer">prayers</a>, the Quran is recited only in Arabic. Someone who has memorized the entire Quran is called a <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Hafiz_(Quran)?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Hafiz (Quran)">hafiz</a>. Ideally, verses are recited with a special kind of <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Prosody_(linguistics)?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Prosody (linguistics)">prosody</a> reserved for this purpose called <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Tajwid?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Tajwid">tajwid</a>. During the month of Ramadan, Muslims typically complete the recitation of the whole Quran during <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Tarawih?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Tarawih">tarawih</a> prayers. In order to extrapolate the meaning of a particular Quranic verse, Muslims rely on <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Exegesis?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB"

The <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Syriac_language?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Syriac language">Syriac</a> equivalent is qeryānā (ܩܪܝܢܐ), which refers to 'scripture reading' or 'lesson'.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-Comprehensive_Aramaic_Lexicon-19">[15]</a> While some Western scholars consider the word to be derived from the Syriac, the majority of Muslim authorities hold the origin of the word is qara'a itself.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-Britannica-20">[16]</a> Regardless, it had become an Arabic term by Muhammad's lifetime.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-Britannica-20">[16]</a> An important meaning of the word is the 'act of reciting', as reflected in an early Quranic passage: "It is for Us to collect it and to recite it (qur'ānahu)."<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-21">[17]</a> In other verses, the word refers to 'an individual passage recited [by Muhammad]'. Its <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Liturgy?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Liturgy">liturgical</a> context is seen in a number of passages, for example: "So when al-qur'ān is recited, listen to it and keep silent."<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-22">[18]</a> The word may also assume the meaning of a codified scripture when mentioned with other scriptures such as the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Tawrat?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Tawrat">Torah</a> and <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Injil?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Injil">Gospel</a>.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-23">[19]</a> The term also has closely related <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Synonym?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Synonym">synonyms</a> that are employed throughout the Quran. Each synonym possesses its own distinct meaning, but its use may converge with that of qur'ān in certain contexts.

Muhammad's illiteracy was taken as a sign of the genuineness of his prophethood. For example, according to <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Fakhr_al-Din_al-Razi?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Fakhr al-Din al-Razi">Fakhr al-Din al-Razi</a>, if Muhammad had mastered writing and reading he possibly would have been suspected of having studied the books of the ancestors.

Rhyme, while found throughout the Quran, is conspicuous in many of the earlier Meccan suras, in which relatively short verses throw the rhyming words into prominence. The effectiveness of such a form is evident for instance in <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Sura_81?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Sura 81">Sura 81</a>, and there can be no doubt that these passages impressed the conscience of the hearers. Frequently a change of rhyme from one set of verses to another signals a change in the subject of discussion. Later sections also preserve this form but the style is more expository.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-216">[200]</a><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-217">[201]</a> The Quranic text seems to have no beginning, middle, or end, its nonlinear structure being akin to a web or net.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-Britannica-20">[16]</a> The textual arrangement is sometimes considered to exhibit lack of continuity, absence of any chronological or thematic order and repetitiousness.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-219">[l]</a><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-221">[m]</a> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Michael_Sells?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Michael Sells">Michael Sells</a>, citing the work of the critic <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Norman_O._Brown?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Norman O. Brown">Norman O. Brown</a>, acknowledges Brown's observation that the seeming disorganization of Quranic literary expression—its scattered or fragmented mode of composition in Sells's phrase—is in fact a literary device capable of delivering profound effects as if the intensity of the prophetic message were shattering the vehicle of human language in which it was being communicated.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-ApproachQuran-222">[204]</a><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-223">[205]</a> Sells also addresses the much-discussed repetitiveness of the Quran, seeing this, too, as a literary device. A text is <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Self-reference?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Self-reference">self-referential</a> when it speaks about itself and makes reference to itself. According to Stefan Wild, the Quran demonstrates this <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Metatextuality?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Metatextuality">metatextuality</a> by explaining, classifying, interpreting and justifying the words to be transmitted. Self-referentiality is evident in those passages where the Quran refers to itself as revelation (tanzil), remembrance (<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Dhikr?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Dhikr">dhikr</a>), news (naba'), criterion (furqan) in a self-designating manner (explicitly asserting its Divinity, "And this is a blessed Remembrance that We have sent down; so are you now denying it?"),<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-224">[206]</a> or in the frequent appearance of the "Say" tags, when Muhammad is commanded to speak (e.g., "Say: 'God's guidance is the true guidance'", "Say: 'Would you then dispute with us concerning God?'"). According to Wild the Quran is highly self-referential.

The Hijazi style manuscripts nevertheless confirm that transmission of the Quran in writing began at an early stage. Probably in the ninth century, scripts began to feature thicker strokes, which are traditionally known as <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Kufic?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Kufic">Kufic</a> scripts. Toward the end of the ninth century, new scripts began to appear in copies of the Quran and replace earlier scripts. The reason for discontinuation in the use of the earlier style was that it took too long to produce and the demand for copies was increasing. Copyists would therefore choose simpler writing styles. Beginning in the 11th century, the styles of writing employed were primarily the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Naskh_(script)?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Naskh (script)">naskh</a>, <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Muhaqqaq?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Muhaqqaq">muhaqqaq</a>, <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Ray%E1%B8%A5%C4%81n%C4%AB?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Rayḥānī">rayḥānī</a> and, on rarer occasions, the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Thuluth?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Thuluth">thuluth</a> script.

One of the first products of this printing house was the Qur'ān. Through the doctor and writer, Johann Georg v. Zimmermann (d. 1795), who was befriended by Catherine II, a copy of the publication arrived in the Göttingen University library. Its director, the philologist Christian Gottlob Heyne (d. 1812), presented the work immediately in the Göttingische Anzeigen von gelehrten Sachen (28 July 1788); therein he pointed especially to the beauty of the Arabic types. To the Arabic text marginal glosses have been added that consist predominantly of reading variants. The imprint was reproduced unchanged in 1790 and 1793 in St. Petersburg (cf. Schnurrer, Bibliotheca arabica, no. 384); later, after the transfer of the printing house to Kazan, editions appeared in different formats and with varying presentation <a

The other copies, already in the hands of Muslims in other areas, were collected and sent to Medina where, on orders of the Caliph, they were burnt (or, according to some historians, were destroyed by boiling). Thus several copies were made, one being kept in Medina, one in Mecca, and one each sent to Sham (a territory now divided into Syria, Lebanon, Palestine and Jordan), Kufa and Basra. It is said that beside these five, one copy was also sent to Yemen and one to Bahrein. These copies were called the Imam copies and served as original for all future copies. The only difference of order between these copies and the first volume was that the chapters "Spirits of War" and "Immunity" were written in one place between "The Heights" and "Jonah." </blockquote></li> <li id="cite_note-sbukhari1-56"><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_ref-sbukhari1_56-0">^</a> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFal-Bukhari" class="citation web cs1">al-Bukhari, Muhammad. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=auto&tl=en&hl=en-GB&u=http://www.sahih-bukhari.com/Pages/Bukhari_6_61.php">"Sahih Bukhari, volume 6, book 61, narrations number 509 and 510"</a>. sahih-bukhari.com.

Further, the usage of various writers differs considerably on these points : Mukaddasi invariably speaks of the whole Haram Area as Al Masjid, or as Al Masjid al Aksî, "the Akså Mosque," or "the mosque," while the Main-building of the mosque, at the south end of the Haram Area, which we generally term the Aksa, he refers to as Al Mughattâ, "the Covered-part." Thus he writes "the mosque is entered by thirteen gates," meaning the gates of the Haram Area. So also "on the right of the court," means along the west wall of the Haram Area; "on the left side" means the east wall; and "at the back" denotes the northern boundary wall of the Haram Area. Nasir-i-Khusrau, who wrote in Persian, uses for the Main-building of the Aksâ Mosque the Persian word Pushish, that is, "Covered part," which exactly translates the Arabic Al Mughatta. On some occasions, however, the Akså Mosque (as we call it) is spoken of by Näsir as the Maksurah, a term used especially to denote the railed-off oratory of the Sultan, facing the Mihrâb, and hence in an extended sense applied to the building which includes the same. The great Court of the Haram Area, Nâsir always speaks of as the Masjid, or the Masjid al Akså, or again as the Friday Mosque (Masjid-i-Jum'ah).</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&rft.genre=book&rft.btitle=Palestine+Under+the+Moslems%3A+A+Description+of+Syria+and+the+Holy+Land+from+A.D.+650+to+1500.+Translated+from+the+Works+of+the+Medieval+Arab+Geographers&rft.pages=96&rft.pub=Houghton%2C+Mifflin&rft.date=1890&rft.aulast=Le+Strange&rft.aufirst=Guy&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fbooks.google.com%2Fbooks%3Fid%3DBxUyssIX-H4C%26pg%3DRA1-PA94&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AQuran" class="Z3988"></li> <li id="cite_note-89"><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_ref-89">^</a> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFIdrīsīJaubert1836" class="citation book cs1 cs1-prop-foreign-lang-source"><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Muhammad_al-Idrisi?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Muhammad al-Idrisi">Idrīsī, Muhammad</a>; <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Pierre_Am%C3%A9d%C3%A9e_Jaubert?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Pierre Amédée Jaubert">Jaubert, Pierre Amédée</a> (1836). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=auto&tl=en&hl=en-GB&u=https://books.google.com/books?id%3DBRA7AAAAcAAJ%26pg%3DPA343">Géographie d'Édrisi</a> (in French). à l'Imprimerie royale. pp. 343–344. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=auto&tl=en&hl=en-GB&u=https://web.archive.org/web/20230719063143/https://books.google.com/books?id%3DBRA7AAAAcAAJ%26pg%3DPA343">Archived</a> from the original on 19 July 2023.

Il n'en existe pas au monde qui l'égale en grandeur, si l'on en excepte toutefois la grande mosquée de Cordoue en Andalousie; car, d'après ce qu'on rapporte, le toit de cette mosquée est plus grand que celui de la Mesdjid el-Acsa. Au surplus, l'aire de cette dernière forme un parallelogramme dont la hauteur est de deux cents brasses (ba'a), et le base de cents quatre-vingts. La moitié de cet espace, celle qui est voisin du Mihrab, est couverte d'un toit (ou plutôt d'un dôme) en pierres soutenu par plusieurs rangs de colonnes; l'autre est à ciel ouvert. Au centre de l'édifice est un grand dôme connu sous le nom de Dôme de la roche; il fut orné d'arabesques en or et d'autres beaux ouvrages, par les soins de divers califes musulmans. Le dôme est percé de quatre portes; en face de celle qui est à l'occident, on voit l'autel sur lequel les enfants d'Israël offraient leurs sacrifices; auprès de la porte orientale est l'église nommée le saint des saints, d'une construction élégante; au midi est une chapelle qui était à l'usage des Musulmans; mais les chrétiens s'en sont emparés de vive force et elle est restée en leur pouvoir jusqu'à l'époque de la composition du présent ouvrage. Ils ont converti cette chapelle en un couvent où résident des religieux de l'ordre des templiers, c'est-à-dire des serviteurs de la maison de Dieu.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&rft.genre=book&rft.btitle=G%C3%A9ographie+d%27%C3%89drisi&rft.pages=343-344&rft.pub=%C3%A0+l%27Imprimerie+royale&rft.date=1836&rft.aulast=Idr%C4%ABs%C4%AB&rft.aufirst=Muhammad&rft.au=Jaubert%2C+Pierre+Am%C3%A9d%C3%A9e&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fbooks.google.com%2Fbooks%3Fid%3DBRA7AAAAcAAJ%26pg%3DPA343&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AQuran" class="Z3988"> Also at <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite class="citation book cs1">Williams, G.; Willis, R.

In order to understand the native accounts of the sacred area at Jerusalem, it is essentially necessary to keep in mind the proper application of the various names by which it is spoken of. When the Masjid el Aksa is mentioned, that name is usually supposed to refer to the well-known mosque on the south side of the Haram, but such is not really the case. The latter building is called El Jámʻi el Aksa, or simply El Aksa, and the substructures are called El Aksa el Kadímeh (the ancient Aksa), while the title El Masjid el Aksa is applied to the whole sanctuary. The word Jámi is exactly equivalent in sense to the Greek συναγωγή, and is applied to the church or building in which the worshippers congregate. Masjid, on the other hand, is a much more general term; it is derived from the verb sejada "to adore," and is applied to any spot, the sacred character of which would especially incite the visitor to an act of devotion. Our word mosque is a corruption of masjid, but it is usually misapplied, as the building is never so designated, although the whole area on which it stands may be so spoken of. The Cubbet es Sakhrah, El Aksa, Jam'i el Magharibeh, &c., are each called a Jami, but the entire Haram is a masjid. This will explain how it is that 'Omar, after visiting the churches of the Anastasis, Sion, &c., was taken to the "Masjid" of Jerusalem, and will account for the statement of Ibn el 'Asa'kir and others, that the Masjid el Aksa measured over 600 cubits in length-that is, the length of the whole Haram area. The name Masjid el Aksa is borrowed from the passage in the Coran (xvii. 1), when allusion is made to the pretended ascent of Mohammed into heaven from ·the temple of Jerusalem; "Praise be unto Him who transported His servant by night from El Masjid el Haram (i.e., 'the Sacred place of Adoration' at Mecca) to El Masjid el Aksa (i.e., 'the Remote place of Adoration' at Jerusalem), the precincts of which we have blessed," &c. The title El Aksa, "the Remote," according to the Mohammedan doctors, is applied to the temple of Jerusalem "either because of its distance from Mecca, or because it is in the centre of the earth."</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=Palestine+Exploration+Quarterly&rft.atitle=History+of+the+Haram+Es+Sherif%3A+Compiled+from+the+Arabic+Historians&rft.volume=3&rft.issue=3&rft.pages=122-132&rft.date=1871&rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1179%2Fpeq.1871.012&rft.issn=0031-0328&rft.aulast=Palmer&rft.aufirst=E.+H.&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AQuran" class="Z3988"></li> <li id="cite_note-94"><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_ref-94">^</a> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFLe_Strange1890" class="citation book cs1"><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Guy_Le_Strange?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Guy Le Strange">Le Strange, Guy</a> (1890). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=auto&tl=en&hl=en-GB&u=https://books.google.com/books?id%3DBxUyssIX-H4C%26pg%3DRA1-PA89">Palestine Under the Moslems: A Description of Syria and the Holy Land from A.D. 650 to 1500.

On the side of the court towards the Kiblah (in the direction of Mekka), and facing which the worshipper must stand, the colonade, instead of being single, is, for the convenience of the increased numbers of the congregation, widened out to form the Jami' or place of assembly… coming now to the Noble Sanctuary at Jerusalem, we must remember that the term 'Masjid' belongs not only to the Aksa mosque (more properly the Jami' or place of assembly for prayer), but to the whole enclosure with the Dome of the Rock in the middle, and all the other minor domes and chapels.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=Journal+of+the+Royal+Asiatic+Society+of+Great+Britain+and+Ireland&rft.atitle=Description+of+the+Noble+Sanctuary+at+Jerusalem+in+1470+A.D.%2C+by+Kam%C3%A2l+%28or+Shams%29+ad+D%C3%AEn+as+Suy%C3%BBt%C3%AE&rft.volume=19&rft.issue=2&rft.pages=247-305&rft.date=1887&rft.issn=0035-869X&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.semanticscholar.org%2FCorpusID%3A163050043%23id-name%3DS2CID&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jstor.org%2Fstable%2F25208864%23id-name%3DJSTOR&rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1017%2FS0035869X00019420&rft.aulast=Strange&rft.aufirst=Guy+le&rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jstor.org%2Fstable%2F25208864&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AQuran" class="Z3988"></li> <li id="cite_note-oldest-97">^ <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_ref-oldest_97-0">a</a> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Quran?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_ref-oldest_97-1">b</a> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFCoughlan" class="citation news cs1">Coughlan, Sean. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=auto&tl=en&hl=en-GB&u=https://www.bbc.com/news/business-33436021">"'Oldest' Koran fragments found in Birmingham University"</a>.
