What is in juz 18?
Juz 18 covers 3 surahs — 2 Meccan and 1 Medinan — across pages 342–361 of the standard 604-page mushaf. It runs from surah 23, verse 1, to surah 25, verse 20. It contains 1 verse of prostration, at 25:60.
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 18 begins wherever the previous 17 left off rather than at a surah boundary. On that schedule juz 18 falls on day 18. At roughly 20 pages and 202 verses, it averages about 10 verses a page.
