Introduction:

There is a lot of Qur'an books [massahif] written till the day of Othman Ibn Afaan, he burn the other books and he keep one authorized copy. For example there is:

^{1- Qur'an according to Ali bin
abi talib}

^{2- According to Ibn Mass'oud}

^{3- According to Aobi bin Ka'ab}

^{That does not mean that these people
WRITE the Qur'an; this does mean that they are a references for how the Qur'an could be
read. There is 7 ways to read the Qur'an (according to the verse about the 7 letters in
the Qur'an [alssib' ailmithani]) + 3 other ways "completed" (mokimila) + 4
additional, they call it abnormal [shaza]. The 7 ways readers and their disciple:}

^{1- Nafaa': Qalon + Warsh}

^{2- Ibn Kathir: Albizi + Qonbil}

^{3- Abi amro: Aldori + Alsosi}

^{4- Ibn Amer: Ibn Aban + Ibn Thkwan}

^{5- Assemm: Abo Biker + Hafas}

^{6- Alkessa'i: Allith + Aldori}

^{7- Hamza: Albizaz + Abo Isa Alsirfi}

^{The 3 ways readers and there disciple:}

^{1- Abo Ji'faar: Ibn Wardan + Ibn Jmaz}

^{2- Yaccob: Rois + Roh}

^{3- Khalif: Almrozi + Iddres}

^{The 4 ways readers and their disciple:}

^{1- Ibn Mohisn: Albizi + Ibn Shinboz}

^{2- Alyazidi: Soliman Ibn Alhakam +
Ahmed Bin Farah}

^{3- Alhassan Albassry: Abo Na'im
Albalkhi + Aldori}

^{4- Ala'mash: Amotodi + Alshinbzi
Alshttaoi}

^{The diffrence is: 1- spelling 2- tone
(harkat) 3- A'rab (Arabic grammar) 4- using a similar word but different (like FIGHT,
KILL) 5- changing place of words. 6- adding or removing words. What I'm trying to say is
clear; nobody could say that there is one Qur'an. I'm trying to make Muslims notice that
the Qur'an is not "filohen mahfouz" or "in saved plates". If it was
one; so why are all these diffrences in it. Muslims not accept the Gospel; because it is
officially four. They want the original Gospel. They not accept the word "according
to ..." but they have it. Today's Qur'an which all we use is according to Aobi Ibn
Ka'ab.}
