Was the order of the Quranic verses and chapters revealed by God, left to the decision of the Prophet Muhammad, or was it determined by people who came after the Prophet's time? Was it organized chronologically, by date of revelation? Dr. Shabir Ally says that the order of verses within each chapter was dictated by the Prophet Muhammad, but the order of chapters is not so clear. He explains that chapters are interpreted independently of each other (while verses aren't), so their order doesn't matter very much.
