What is in juz 27?
Juz 27 covers 7 surahs — 5 Meccan and 2 Medinan — across pages 520–541 of the standard 604-page mushaf. It runs from surah 51, verse 31, to surah 57, verse 29. It contains 1 verse of prostration, at 53:62.
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 27 begins wherever the previous 26 left off rather than at a surah boundary. On that schedule juz 27 falls on day 27. At roughly 22 pages and 399 verses, it averages about 18 verses a page.
