What is in juz 15?
Juz 15 covers 2 surahs — 2 Meccan and 0 Medinan — across pages 282–301 of the standard 604-page mushaf. It runs from surah 17, verse 1, to surah 18, verse 74. It contains 1 verse of prostration, at 17:109.
Read one juz a day and the Quran is completed in a month, which is why this division exists at all — it is a measure of quantity, not of subject, so juz 15 begins wherever the previous 14 left off rather than at a surah boundary. On that schedule juz 15 falls on day 15. At roughly 20 pages and 185 verses, it averages about 9 verses a page.
