Finish the Quran in Ramadan: a practical 30-day plan
Plan one juz a day in Ramadan, explore a two-khatam schedule and an after-taraweeh routine, with direct links to all 30 juz.
A daily plan can make Quran reading easier to organise during Ramadan. Start with a pace you can sustain, leave time to understand what you read, and adjust for your circumstances.
One juz each day
The Quran is divided into 30 juz. Reading one juz per day completes a reading in 30 days; the schedule below links each day to its juz.
Ramadan can be 29 or 30 days. If you want to finish within the month, spread the final juz over earlier days or plan one day with two juz. Follow local announcements rather than assuming a fixed end date for Ramadan 2027.
Two khatams: two juz per day
Two complete readings total 60 juz. At two juz per day, finish the first reading on day 15 and the second on day 30. On a 29-day month, distribute the remaining two juz across earlier days.
This is an optional planning target, not a religious obligation or a measure of another person's worship. Choose a slower pace if needed.
An after-taraweeh variant
If after taraweeh is a workable time for you, reserve a quiet reading session then. You can read your daily juz in that session or split it between earlier in the day and after prayer.
For two khatams, one practical split is one juz earlier and one after taraweeh. Listening in congregational prayer and personally reading are different activities: keep your reading record clear and ask a local scholar about religious questions.
When you miss a day
Move the missed portion to a spare session, spread it across several days, or extend your finish date. Do not sacrifice careful reading or necessary rest to maintain a checklist.

Frequently asked questions
How much should I read each day for a 30-day khatam?
One juz per day covers the Quran's 30 juz in 30 days. You can divide a juz into smaller sessions.
What if Ramadan lasts 29 days?
Spread an extra juz across earlier days or choose one day to read two juz. The 30-day schedule is a planning tool, not a prediction of the month's length.
How do I plan two khatams?
Read two juz per day for 30 days: juz 1–30 on days 1–15, then repeat on days 16–30. Adjust the total for a shorter month.
Must I read after taraweeh?
No specific session is required by this plan. Choose a sustainable time; ask a local scholar about questions concerning prayer or recitation.
