Signs of the Holy Qur'an are signs that are used to facilitate the reading of the Qur'an and read it correctly in the Holy Qur'an, and some of these signs have been used since the first century of the lunar calendar.
In the following, we will try to give a short explanation about each of the signs of the Qur'an.
The Sign of the end of the Ayah (verse) along with the number of the Ayaat(verses):
The specified parts of each surah by the Hazrat Muhammad (Peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his progeny) are called Ayaat(verses).
The symbol is used to indicate each ayah(verse) in the Quran available on the Rojat website and application.
And to display the number of ayah(verse), the number of the ayah(verse) is written in the middle of this sign as below:
١٤
The beginning of the new juz' and the end of the previous juz':
The sign that is used at the beginning of each juz' of the Qur'an in order to separate the juz's of the Qur'an is called the mark of the juz' of the Qur'an. Dividing the Qur'an into juz' and hizb's has a history since the time of the Hazrat Muhammad (Peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his progeny) and many hadiths indicate that during the time of the Hazrat Muhammad (Peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his progeny) the Qur'an was divided into parts.
۞The beginning of the new hizb and the end of the previous hizb:
The symbol that is used at the beginning of each hizb of the Qur'an in order to separate the hizbs of the Qur'an is the mark of the hizb of the Qur'an. In the version of the Holy Quran used on the Rojat website and application, instead of using this symbol, the following four symbols are used for your convenience.
The beginning of 1/4 of the juz' and the beginning of the new hizb and the end of the previous hizb:
The mark of 1/4 of the juz', in addition to the mark of the beginning of the new hizb and the end of the previous hizb, indicates the beginning of the juz' of the 1/4 of the juz'.
The beginning of 2/4 of the juz' and the beginning of the new hizb and the end of the previous hizb:
The mark of 2/4 of the juz', in addition to the mark of the beginning of the new hizb and the end of the previous hizb, indicates the beginning of the juz' of the 2/4 of the juz'.
The beginning of 3/4 of the juz' and the beginning of the new hizb and the end of the previous hizb:
The mark of 3/4 of the juz', in addition to the mark of the beginning of the new hizb and the end of the previous hizb, indicates the beginning of the juz' of the 3/4 of the juz'.
The beginning of 4/4 of the juz' and the beginning of the new hizb and the end of the previous hizb:
The mark of 4/4 of the juz', in addition to the mark of the beginning of the new hizb and the end of the previous hizb, indicates the beginning of the juz' of the 4/4 of the juz'.
