Ibn Sa'd narrated in al-Tabaqat from Ibn Abbas, who said: "I asked Ubayy ibn Ka'b about what was revealed in the Qur'an in Medina, and he said: 'Twenty-seven surahs were revealed there, and the rest in Mecca.'" For more information about the Medinan and Meccan surahs of the Qur'an, one can refer to the book "Al-Itqan fi Ulum al-Qur'an" by Imam Al-Suyuti.
