What is in juz 4?

Juz 4 covers 2 surahs — 0 Meccan and 2 Medinan — across pages 62–81 of the standard 604-page mushaf. It runs from surah 3, verse 93, to surah 4, verse 23.

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 4 begins wherever the previous 3 left off rather than at a surah boundary. On that schedule juz 4 falls on day 4. At roughly 20 pages and 131 verses, it averages about 7 verses a page.
