The Qur'an is one book -- it does not have multiple books. However, it is separated by chapter (in Arabic, سورة "Sura"). There are 114 Suras in the Qur'an, each named after a particular theme in that chapter. For example, Sura 19, called "Maryam", talks about Jesus' birth in Israel by the Virgin Mary and is thus named after her. In addition, the Qur'an is divided into 30 "juz" (جزء ; in English, "part" or "section"). It is tradition that on each of the juz is read on a different day of Ramadan, a month in the Islamic calendar.
