How the Quran is organised
- Surah: one of the 114 chapters. Each surah is classed as Meccan or Medinan according to its period of revelation.
- Ayah (verse): the standard numbering used here (Hafs ʿan ʿAsim, Kufan count) has 6,236 verses.
- Juz (para): one of 30 parts of roughly equal length, used for reading plans such as one juz a day.
- Manzil: one of 7 parts, for reading the whole Quran in a week.
- Ruku: a thematic section within a surah, marked in many South Asian copies of the Quran.
- Sajda: verses at which prostration is customary. They are marked ۩ in the reader.
Reading with understanding
- Read the Arabic alongside one translation, then compare with the second translation to see different renderings.
- Use verse repeat to listen to a verse several times while following the text.
- Keep reflections in personal notes on any verse, and set a daily goal.
Translations are not the Quran
A translation conveys a translator’s understanding of the meaning. For interpretation (tafsir) and rulings, consult qualified scholars and established works.
