Islam holds that the Qur'an was repeatedly revealed from Allah to Muhammad verbally through the angel Jibr l (Gabriel) over a period of approximately twenty-three years, beginning in 610 CE, when he was forty, and concluding in 632 CE, the year of his death. Followers of Islam further believe that the Qur'an was memorized, recited and written down by Muhammad's companions after every revelation dictated by Muhammad.
