Is It True That the Quran Contains 114 Surahs and 6000 Verses?

Islamic scholars unanimously agree that the Quran contains 114 surahs, a count found in the Uthmanic codex and all printed copies. There is no dispute over this number among different Islamic schools or countries.

Scholars agree on 6000 verses as a base number, but disagree on what exceeds this. The additional verses range from 4 to 236 according to different counting methods and Quranic recitations.

Scholars unanimously agree that Al-Aqsa is the second mosque placed on Earth after the Sacred Mosque. Hadith collections confirm this, noting it was built over 2000 years before the Common Era.

Al-Aqsa Mosque covers approximately 144 dunams and 100 square meters (one dunam equals 1000 square meters), forming roughly one-sixth of Jerusalem's Old City. This measurement is confirmed by official sources.

Some medical studies suggest that regular Fajr prayer may help prevent heart disease through sleep regulation and physical activity, but these claims require more peer-reviewed scientific validation.

Islamic traditions mention that certain holy sites are protected from the Antichrist, but these claims are based on hadith traditions without universal scholarly consensus.

Historians unanimously confirm that the Dome of the Rock was built by Caliph Abd al-Malik in 72 AH (691 CE), representing a major Islamic architectural achievement.
