A juz' (Arabic: جزء, plural اجزاء ajza' , literally means "part") is one of thirty parts of roughly equal length into which the Qur'an is sometimes divided. This division facilitates recitation of the Qur'an in a month, especially during Ramadan when the entire Qur'an is recited in the Tarawih salat; reciting approximately one juz' a night. A juz' is further divided into two ahzab (groups), and each hizb (group) is in turn subdivided into two quarters, making four quarters per juz'. The most commonly referred and memorized juz' is "juz' Amma'," which is the 30th juz' and contains Surahs 78 through 114, most of the shortest suras in the Qur'an. 'Amma is generally taught first to children. Juz Amma is named after the 1st word of the 1st sura (i.e. sura 78) in that juz. Muslims from South Asia also refer to a juz' as a para (paara) [1].
