How the Holy Quran was written and compiled? Part -2
Bismillahir Rahman nir Raheem
Assalam oalaikum,
As I have discussed earlier the first compilation of the Holy Quran
took place as a measure to protect it.
In order to understand the reason why the second compilation became a
necessity first we will have to understand the concept of the 7 Huroof
in the Quran.
The following authentic ahadith will be helpful in understanding the
concept better:
• In Sahih Muslim there is a Hadith which states that once Prophet
Mohammad (saw) was sitting near a pond which belonged to Bani Gifar
clan and Angel Jibra’eel (AS) came to him and asked him to order his
Ummah to recite Al-Qur’an as per a single Harf (word) or Qirat.
Prophet Mohammad (saw) told him that his Ummah was not capable of
doing it, then Jibra’eel (AS) came again and asked Prophet Mohammad
(saw) to order his Ummah to recite Al-Qur’an as per two haroof
(words) or Qirats. Prophet Mohammad (saw) repeated the same words
which he had said on first occasion, this process continued and in the
end Jibre’aal (AS) asked Prophet Mohammad (saw) to order his Ummah to
recite the Qur’an as per seven Haroof or (words) or Qirats. This
permission to recite Al-Qur’an as per seven Haroof was to make it easy
for the Ummah.
• Prophet Mohammad (saw) said:
"The Quran was revealed in seven dialects"
One day when Prophet Mohammad (saw) met Hazrat Jibreel
(alaihis-salaam) he said to him: ‘I have been sent to a nation among
whom there are old, weak and illiterate people. Ask Allah to reveal
The Quran in more than one way (so that they all will be able to read
it).’"'Umar b. Khattab said: I heard Hisham b. Hakim b. Hizam recitingSurah al-Furqan in a style different from that in which I used to
recite it, and in which Allah's Messenger (saw) had taught me to
recite it. I was about to dispute with him (on this style) but I
delayed till he had finished that (the recitation). Then I caught hold
of his cloak and brought him to the Messenger of Allah (saw) and said:
Messenger of Allah, I heard this man reciting Surah al-Furqan in a
style different from the one in which you taught me to recite. Upon
this the Messenger of Allah (saw) told (me) to leave him alone and
asked him to recite. He then recited in the style in which I beard him
recite it. The Messenger of Allah (saw) then said: Thus was it sent
down. He then told me to recite and I recited it, and he said: Thus
was it sent down. The Qur'an was sent down in seven dialects. So
recite what seems easy there from" (Sahih Muslim, Book 4, Number 1782)
