This fascinating and important book by Dr. Ahmad Ali Al-Imam, who specializes in Quranic Sciences, attempts to investigate the nature of the seven Ahruf in which the Quran has been revealed and the reason for the variations in readings among the Qurra' of the Quran.

This book studies, examines, and discusses:

  • The revelation of the Qur'an in the seven ahruf concluding that they represent seven linguistical ways of recitation.

  • The compilation of the Quran during the lifetime of the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhe Wassalam) and the preservation of the Qur'an in the memories of the Companions as well as in written form, the compilation during the time of Abu Bakr, and the further compilation during the time of 'Uthman.

  • The Uthmanic masahif and their relation to the seven ahruf.

  • The language of the Quran and whether it includes one, several, or all the dialects of the Arabs.

  • The origin of the qira'at and conditions governing accepted readings.

  • Ikhtiyar (i.e., the selection of one reading rather than another) and the rules governing the Qurra' who selected a reading
