The length of the Arabic version is not equal to the length of the English version because it depends on the translation. Some translations contain an introduction and tafsir to the ayat, so this makes it bigger than the standard version. The English versions differ from each other, but their page count ranges from 100 to 580 pages. It depends on the translation that you read from; also, if there are tafsir on it or not, all this affects the page count.

How Many Pages Are in One Juz’ in the Quran?

Let’s discuss at the beginning how many Juz are in the holy Quran. There are 30 juz in the holy Quran, and each juz is divided into two parts called “Hizab.”. Each juz consists of some surahs and has its own name, such as Juz amma, which consists of some surahs. Juz is like 20 pages, but it can more or less depend on the book size. When we talk about the average, we say that it is about 20 pages.

How Many Verses Are in the Quran?

This topic is a debatable topic among scholars because many scholars argue that the number of verses in the holy Quran is 6236, but some of them argue that the holy Quran has 6666 verses because they account for the “bismillah” as verses, so this makes the verses in the holy Quran increase.

Some scholars, like Kufa, argue that the holy Quran has 6236 verses, but Ibn Abbas argues that the holy Quran consists of 6616 verses. This topic is debatable because some scholars agree and confirm their count of verses, and they have evidence to defend their opinion, so this topic doesn’t have an end and will be discussed until the end of the life because followers of the scholars see that their scholar’s opinion is the right opinion, and they defend this opinion against any other scholar’s followers.

But the confirmed count of the holy Quran consists of 6236 verses because the only ”bismillah” accepted is the bismillah in the surah al Fatiha; it’s approved as a verse on this surah only, so counting the other Ayat will give us 6236 verses, and this count is the most popular and confirmed by many scholars.

How Many Surahs Are in the Quran?
