Requirements: .ePUB reader, 15 MB
Overview: A revelatory account of early Islam’s great diversity by the world’s leading scholar of early Qur’anic manuscripts
According to Muslim dogma, the recited and written text of the Qur’an as we know it today scrupulously reflects the divine word as it was originally sent down to Muhammad. An examination of early Islamic sources, including accounts of prophetic sayings, all of them compared with the oldest Qur’anic manuscripts, reveal that plurality was in fact the outstanding characteristic of the genesis and transmission of the Qur’an, both textually and orally.
