Surah, juz and ayah name three ways of finding a place in the Quran. Each is useful for a different reading goal.
Find a verse by its reference
A surah is a chapter and an ayah is a verse. Al-Fatihah 1:1 points to the first ayah of the first surah. When you record a place you want to revisit, a surah and ayah reference is more useful than a page number that depends on the printed edition.
Use a juz for a reading plan
The Quran is also divided into thirty parts called ajza, with juz as the singular. A juz can cross surah boundaries, so it works well as a reading division. Use the surah view when you want to study one chapter and the juz view when you want to follow a longer reading plan.
