According to
traditional practice only the first BISMILLAH before
Sura `Fathiha' is counted as a verse. And all other
"Bismillahs" are treated as `Headings' for
various Suras and therefore not counted as verses.
-
Caution: The
traditional Sura Nos. will tally in all copies of the
Quran. But in some translations the `Verse Nos' have
been changed by splitting the verse into two or three
parts and sometimes in the translations all the
Bismillahs are given Verse Nos. The correct No. of
Suras and the Correct No. of verses in each Sura as
per the accepted traditional version is given in this
pamplet.
