DETAILS OF THE THIRTY PARA OF THE HOLY QUR'AN..
A juzʼ (Arabic:
جُزْءْ,
plural:
أَجْزَاءْ
ajzāʼ, literally meaning "part"
)
is one of thirty parts of varying lengths into which the Quran is divided. It is also known as para in Iran and the Indian subcontinent. There are 30 juz in the quran.
Division into ajzāʼ has no relevance to the meaning of the Qurʼān and anyone can start reading from anywhere in the Qurʼān.
During medieval times, when it was too costly for most Muslims to purchase a manuscript, copies of the Qurʼān were kept in mosques and made accessible to people; these copies frequently took the form of a series of thirty parts (juzʼ).
Some use these divisions to facilitate recitation of the Qurʼān in a month—such as during Ramadan, when the entire Qurʼān is recited in the Tarawih prayers, typically at the rate of one juzʼ a night.
A juzʼ is further divided into ḥizbāni (lit. "two groups", singular: ḥizb, plural: aḥzāb), therefore, there are 60 aḥzāb. Each ḥizb (group) is subdivided into four quarters, making eight quarters per juzʼ, called maqraʼ (lit. "reading"). There are 240 of these quarters (maqraʼs) in the Qurʼān. These maqraʼ are often used as practical sections for revision when memorizing the Qurʼān.
The most commonly memorized juzʼ is juzʼ ‘amma, the 30th juzʼ, containing chapters (sūrah) 78 through 114, with most of the shortest chapters of the Qurʼān. Juzʼ ‘amma is named, like most ajzāʼ, after the 1st word of its 1st verse (in this case chapter 78).
Distribution of sūrah across ajzāʼ, with the length of the bar corresponding to a sūrah being proportionate to the number of letters of the sūrah in the juzʼ divided by the total number of letters in the juzʼ.
The associated names of each Juz’ in the Holy Qurʼān:
