The first Sura of the Qur'an is called "al-Fatiha" (Arabic: الفاتحة , English: "the Opening" or "the Opener"). The second Sura is called "al-Baqara" (Arabic: البقرة , English: "the Cow"). It is called the Sura of the Cow because it references the Biblical story of the Golden Cow.

During the twenty two year period of the Quranic revelations, Prophet Muhammad lived in Mecca for twelve years (610 622 A.D.) and in Medinah for ten (622 632 A.D.). Of the 114 Surahs of the Holy Quran, about 92 were revealed in Mecca and 22 in Medinah. Some Surahs are a composite. Generally speaking, there are three characteristics which distinguish Meccan Surahs from the Medinite ones: 1. The Meccan Surahs deal mainly with faith, while the Medinite Surahs deal mainly with action or the implementation of faith. 2. Meccan Surahs are generally prophetic, while the Medinite Surahs deal with the realization and fulfillment of prophecies. 3. Meccan Surahs emphasize Man's relationship with God, while Medinite Surahs emphasize man's relationship with fellow man and lay down rules and regulations for social and moral conduct.
