References to the Holy Quran contain the name of the Surah [i.e. chapter] followed by a chapter:verse citation, e.g. Surah Al- Jumu’ah, 62:4, and counts Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim [In the name of Allah the Gracious the Merciful] as the first verse in every chapter it appears.

The name of Muhammad^(sa), the Holy Prophet of Islam, has been followed by the symbol ^(sa), which is an abbreviation for the salutation Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). The names of other Prophets and Messengers are followed by the symbol ^(as), an abbreviation for Alayhis-Salam (peace be upon him). The actual salutations have not generally been set out in full, but they should nevertheless, be understood as being repeated in full in each case.
