The Scriptures III

Not a very clear pic., but this is an image of the original writing in "Koofi"mode of writing taken from the "Tashkent copy" (On the right is given the same writing in modern mode of writing). The Qur'an written down for the second (Copied from the first ever written Qur'an preserved with Hafsah RA-the wife of the prophet PBUH) and "official" time during Khilafah of Uthman RA within 15-20 years of the death of the prophet PBUH. Many of you are familiar with the above document but this is just to indicate ALL the Qur'ans written or printed anywhere in the world subsequently MUST conform to this writing (In addition to the verbal preservation in the form of Huffazd -Plural of Hafizd- those who put the whole Qur'an to memory, better than mechanical recording). Hafizd means guardian, the reason why every copy of Qur'an is certified by a Hafizd to be correct. Actual preservation therefore is sonic (the sounds which the Hafizd must learn to produce with his mouth tongue and gutters, even if he does not understand the meaning or significance of the sound)
There is no other Scripture preserved like this IN ITS ORIGINAL FORM.
Real Guardian is God Himself who makes His promise, "We have, without doubt sent down this message; and We will assuredly guard it" ChapterXV, Verse 9.

Always loved trying to read the old Kufi script; it's always easier when you see the parallel text but very hard without it. When you see it written without harakaat or nuqaat you can see where the single written version represents various qira'aats.

Yes and that's the beauty that many dont recognise how it must have been dveloped.
Un logon ki zabandani kitni oonchi thi (Arabi) What kind of control and deep understanding they had.
Of course I could not even begin to think about it, writing it in blog would be impossible for me. Today, only scholars of Qur'an can see it and may be not all. Thanks for comment. Would like Issa to know more Arabic than you (wish)
