What is in juz 8?
Juz 8 covers 2 surahs — 2 Meccan and 0 Medinan — across pages 128–176 of the standard 604-page mushaf. It runs from surah 6, verse 111, to surah 7, verse 87. It contains 1 verse of prostration, at 7:206.
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 8 begins wherever the previous 7 left off rather than at a surah boundary. On that schedule juz 8 falls on day 8. At roughly 49 pages and 142 verses, it averages about 3 verses a page.
