Mohammed (570 or" 1632). The Koran, er Alkoran (The Book--Arab. qnrdn, literally the reading, or that which ought to be read), is the sacred book of the Mohammedans. According to their belief the Koran was revealed to Mahomet by the angel Gabriel, during a period of twentythree years. It consists of one hundred and fourteen chapters (suras), covering a miscellaneous range of topics, and the materials of which it is made up are largely drawn from ancient Arabian traditions, the Christian New Testament, the Hebrew Bible, the Talmud of the later Jews, and other sources. The compilation of the materials now form ing the Koran was not made until after the death of Mahomet. "The word of God and of the apostle was diligently recorded by his Mahomet's disciples on palm-leaves and the shoulder-bones ol mutton; and the pages, without order or connection, were cast into a domestic chest in the custody of one of his wives. Two years after the death of Mahomet, the sacred volume was collected and published by his friend and successor Abubeker."--Gibbon.
