Finishing Juz Amma is a big achievement. The next step should build on it without a sudden jump in difficulty.
The usual next step: Juz 29 (Tabarak)
| Surah | Number | Verses |
|---|---|---|
| Al-Mulk | 67 | 30 |
| Al-Qalam | 68 | 52 |
| Al-Haqqah | 69 | 52 |
| Al-Ma’arij | 70 | 44 |
| Nuh | 71 | 28 |
| Al-Jinn | 72 | 28 |
| Al-Muzzammil | 73 | 20 |
| Al-Muddaththir | 74 | 56 |
| Al-Qiyamah | 75 | 40 |
| Al-Insan | 76 | 31 |
| Al-Mursalat | 77 | 50 |
Suggested order
- Al-Mulk first: a famous surah with a special virtue. See how to memorise Al-Mulk.
- Then either forwards (Al-Qalam onwards) or backwards from Al-Mursalat; ask the teacher which suits your child.
Adjust the daily amount
Juz 29 has longer surahs than most of Juz Amma, so measure in verses, not surahs. Many children manage 2 to 5 verses a day here.
Protect Juz Amma
- Revise a fifth of Juz Amma each weekday, so the whole juz is covered every week.
- Use Juz Amma surahs in salah.
Other options
Some families choose special surahs next, such as Yasin or Al-Kahf (often recited on Fridays). These are longer, so they suit older children with strong revision habits.
Teacher’s tip: celebrate Juz Amma properly before starting Juz 29. A clear finish line gives your child energy for the next one.
