Quran

The correct and preferred spelling of the Muslim holy recitation. It consists of 114 chapters (surahs). The Quran is written in Arabic. For Muslims, it is considered the word of God revealed to the Prophet Muhammad over a period of 23 years.

Some older texts, newspapers, and some who distinguish translations of the Quran into English or other languages use the spelling Koran. Unless there is a compelling reason or this is in a title or text, use Quran to avoid confusion.
