The study is mainly about the partitions of the two widespread copies of the Qur'an known as mushafs. One of these partitions is published in Turkey under the supervision of the Presidency of Religious Affairs, and the Board of Inspection and Recitation of the Qur'an. The second one is published by an Islamic delegation and by the Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Foundations, Invitation and Guidance of Saudi Arabia. Both the mushafs are widely used in many countries, especially in terms of the places where they are printed. In the study, the partitions in the mushafs are discussed in a comparative manner in terms of their bases and their functions. In this context, first of all, the mentioned partitions are linked together with the words and practices of The Prophet and his companions. Then the same and different partitions in these mushafs and, different aspects of the same partitions are examined. The functions of existing departments are also mentioned. The "symbol of bowing (Ruku?)" on this mushaf published in Turkey is examined. It is recommended that this section should be named as "the symbol of mawdu?." Even the practices belong to the period of the Prophet, the differences in the partitions show that the existing divisions are based on opinions or judicial judgments (ijtihadi)
