Juzdaans and Quran covers

A juzdaan is the cloth or leather cover a Quran is kept in, and its job is straightforward: protect the mus-haf from dust, wear and damage when it is not being read. Madrassah versions take the hardest use, which is why the denim ones with zips and pockets are the most bought.

Size is the thing to get right. A cover that is too small will strain at the seams and one that is too large lets the Quran move inside it, so measure the book rather than guessing. Sizes and closures, zip or velcro, are listed on each product page.

Questions and answers

Is a juzdaan the same as a Quran cover?
In everyday use the two words mean the same thing, though juzdaan more often suggests a bag with a closure rather than a slip on sleeve. Both are stocked here under the same range.
What size juzdaan do I need?
Measure the height and width of your Quran and match it against the dimensions on the product page. Common madrassah sizes run around 40cm, with smaller covers for pocket and travel Qurans.
What are the covers made from?
The range covers denim, leather and fabric versions, with denim the most common for madrassah use because it takes wear well. The material is listed per product.
Do they zip or fasten with velcro?
Both are stocked. Zips hold more securely for a bag that gets carried, while velcro is quicker to open and close, which suits daily classroom use.
Do any have a pocket?
Yes, several of the madrassah styles include an outer pocket for a pen, notes or a small kitaab. Whether a cover has one is stated in its title or description.
Why should a Quran be kept in a cover?
It keeps the mus-haf clean and protects the binding and pages from wear, which matters most for a Quran carried to and from madrassah. It is also simply a way of handling it with care.
Are the covers made for madrassah use?
Yes, the denim range in particular is made for exactly that use, sized for standard madrassah Qurans and built to survive a school bag. They move fastest at the start of the madrassah year.
How do I clean a juzdaan?
Spot clean denim and fabric covers with a damp cloth and mild soap rather than machine washing, which can weaken the stitching. Wipe leather with a dry or barely damp cloth only.
Do you sell the Quran with the cover?
Covers are sold separately from Qurans unless a product says otherwise, so you can match a cover to a Quran you already have. Qurans are stocked on their own page.
Can I see the covers in store?
Yes, and matching a cover to your own Quran is easiest done in person. Cii Stores is a physical shop in Ormonde, Johannesburg, and you can also order online for delivery across South Africa.
Is a juzdaan a good gift?
It is a common gift for a child starting madrassah or finishing a sipara, and it pairs naturally with a Quran. It is inexpensive enough to include alongside something else.
How much does a juzdaan cost?
Juzdaans and Quran covers at Cii Stores run from around R70 to R230, depending on size and material. Leather sits at the upper end and denim in the middle.
How much is delivery and how long does it take?
Standard shipping is R160 and orders are delivered within 3 to 5 business days. Delivery is free on orders over R1000.
Can I return a juzdaan?
Yes. Non consumable items can be returned within 7 days in unused, unopened condition and in their original packaging. Please note that sale items are non refundable.
