The most famous of those hadiths is reported in the Muwatta compiled by Malik ibn Anas. *Malik Ibn Anas has reported:[2] Abd Al-Rahman Ibn Abd al-Qari narrated: “ Umar Ibn al-Khattab said before me: I heard Hisham Ibn Hakim Ibn Hizam reading Surat Al-Furqan in a different way from the one I himself had read out this surah to me. Consequently, as (ﷺ)used to read it, and the Prophet soon as I heard him, I wanted to get hold of him. However, I gave him respite until he had I said .(ﷺ)finished the prayer. Then I got hold of his cloak and dragged him to the Prophet to him: “I have heard this person [Hisham Ibn Hakim Ibn Hizam] reading Surah Al Furqan said: “Leave (ﷺ) in a different way from the one you had read it out to me.” The Prophet him alone [O ‘Umar].” Then he said to Hisham: “Read [it].” [Umar said:] “He read it out in the same way as he had done before me.” [At this,] the Prophet said: “It was revealed thus.” asked me to read it out. So I read it out. [At this], he said: “It was (ﷺ)Then the Prophet revealed thus; this Quran has been revealed in Seven Ahruf. You can read it in any of them you find easy from among them. Suyuti, a famous 15th century Islamic theologian concludes his discussion of this hadith:[3] And to me the best opinion in this regard is that of the people who say that this Hadith is from among matters of mutashabihat, the meaning of which cannot be specificaly under- stood. Many reports contradict presence of variant readings:[4] Abu Abd Al-Rahman al- Sulami reports, "the reading of Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman and Zayd ibn Thabit and that of all the Muhajirun and the Ansar was the same. They would read the Quran according to the Qira’at al-‘ammah. This is the same reading which was read out twice by the Prophet to Gabriel in the year of his death. Zayd ibn Thabit was also present in this reading [called] the ‘Al-Ardahah Al-Akhirah’(The last revision). It was this very reading that he taught the Quran to people till his death".[5] in the year (ﷺ)Ibn Sirin writes, "the reading on which the Quran was read out to the prophet of his death is the same according to which people are reading the Quran today".[6] *Other Hadith: said: "The Quran was sent down in seven (ﷺ)From Abu Hurairah: The Messenger of Allah ahruf. Disputation concerning the Qurʾan is unbelief" - he said this three times - "and you should put into practice what you know of it, and leave what you do not know of it to some- -said: "An All (ﷺ)one who does."[7] From Abu Hurairah: The Messenger of Allah knowing, Wise, Forgiving, Merciful sent down the Qur'an in seven ahruf."[7] said: "The Quran was sent down (ﷺ)From ʿAbdallâh Ibn Masʿūd: The Messenger of Allah in seven ahruf. Each of these ahruf has an outward aspect (zahr) and an inward aspect (batn); each of the ahruf has a border, and each border has a lookout."[7] The meaning of this hadith is explained as:[7] (pp. 31) (To be continued in the next issue) (1) https://bewley.virtualave.net/qira.html (2) Malik Ibn Anas,Muwatta, vol. 1 (Egypt: Dar Ahya al-Turath, n.d.), 201, (no. 473).

  • Pocket Guide
    QURAN pocket guide § Maulana Wahiduddin Khan Introduction 3 The Word of God 13 An Abiding Wonder 25 The Teachings of the Quran 51 Selections from the Quran 95 2 Introduction The Quran is the Book of God. It has been preserved in its entirety for all time to come. Although written originally in Arabic, it has been made accessible, thanks to translations, to those who have no knowledge of Arabic. While no substitute for the original, translations serve the signal purpose of spreading the word of God far beyond the Arabic-speaking peoples to a far broader spectrum of humanity. The Quran is apparently in the Arabic language, but in reality, it is in the language of nature, that is, the language in which God directly addressed all human beings at the time of Creation. This divine invocation of humanity is ever-present in the consciousness of all human beings, that is why the Quran is universally understandable—to some on a conscious plane, and to others at the subconscious level. This reality has been described in the Quran as ‘clear revelations in the hearts of those who have been given knowledge.’ This verse 3 goes on to say that ‘none deny Our revelations save the wrongdoers’ (29:49). This means that the Divine Reality, explained by the Quran on a conscious plane, pre-exists in man at the level of the subconscious. The message of the Quran is not, therefore, something which is alien to man. It is in fact a verbal expression of that same Divine Reality which is in consonance with man’s own nature and with which he is already familiar.

  • Nasal Assimilation in Quranic Recitation Table of Contents
    EmanQuotah Linguistics Senior Paper Hadass Sheffer, Advisor Swarthmore College December 9, 1994 Nasal Assimilation in Quranic Recitation Table of Contents Introduction 1 TheQuran 3 Recitation and Tajwi:d 7 Nasal Assimilation in Quranic Recitation 10 Arabic geminates 12 Nasal assimilation rules 15 Blocking of assimilation by pauses 24 Conclusion 26 Bibliography Grateful acknowledgements to my father, my mother and my brothers, and to Hadass Sheffer and Donna Jo Napoli. Introduction This paper is concerned with the analysis of certain rules governing nasality and nasal assimilation during recitation of the holy Quran. I These rules are a subset of tajwi:d, a set of rules governing the correct prescribed recitation and pronunciation of the Islamic scriptures. The first part of the paper will describe the historical and cultural importance of the Quran and tajwi:d, with the proposition that a tension or conflict between the necessity for clarity and enunciation and the desire for beautification of the divine words of God is the driving force behind tajwi:d's importance. Though the rules are functional rather than "natural," these prescriptive rules can be integrated into a study lexical phonology and feature geometry, as discussed in the second section, since prescriptive rules must work within those rules set by the language's grammar. Muslims consider the Quran a divine and holy text, untampered with and unchangeable by humankind. Western scholars have attempted to identify it as the writings of the Prophet Muhammad, a humanly written text like any other. Viewing the holy Quran in this way ignores the religious, social and linguistic implications of its perceived unchangeability, and does disservice to the beliefs of many Muslims.

Malik said, "No-one should carry the Qur'an by its strap, or on a cushion, unless he is pure. If it were permissible to do so, it would also have been permissible to carry it in its cover. This is not because there is something on the hands of the one who carries it by which the Qur'an will be soiled, but because it is disapproved of for someone to carry the Qur'an without being pure out of respect for the Qur'an, and in order to honour it." Malik said, "The best thing that I have heard about this is the ayat 'None touch it except the purified.' (Sura 56 ayat 79) It ranks with the ayat in Surat Abasa (Sura 80), where Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, says, 'No, it is a reminder, and whoever wishes will remember it.

The Prophet (saw) woke up for tahajjud and went to relieve himself. When he (saw) came out, he found that ibn ‘Abbas had made some arrangement for water for him to perform ablution from. Upon this he made a special supplication for him: Allahumma faq-qih-hu fid-deen wa ‘allimhut-ta’weel O Allah grant him understanding of the religion and teach him the (science of) interpretation. Incident during the khilafah of Umar (ra): Umar (ra) had a question to ask about Surah an-Nasr regarding which he asked ibn ‘Abbas (ra).
