Most people think a Makki or Madani Surah just means where it was revealed — Makkah or Madinah. But that's not actually how it works. The real difference is about time, not place. A Surah is classified as Makki if it was revealed before the Hijrah (the Prophet ﷺ's migration to Madinah), and Madani if it was revealed after — regardless of the city it came down in. That means a verse revealed inside Makkah after the Hijrah is still counted as Madani. The Hijrah is the dividing line, not the map. Out of the Quran's 114 Surahs — spread across 30 sections and over 600 pages — roughly 86 are Makki and 28 Madani (with a small number disputed among scholars). It's a small detail that completely changes how you understand the context of what you're reading. Did you already know this, or did it surprise you?
