The word 'Surah' means literally eminence or high degree, and also refers to any step of a structure. In The Quraan itself it is applied to a chapter of The Quraan, either because of its eminence or because each chapter is, as it were, a distinct degree or step in the whole Book, which is thus compared to a structure. The chapters of The Noble Quraan are of varying lengths, the longest comprising fully one-twelfth of the entire Quraan and the smallest containing only three verses.
