A Virtuous Task

on . Posted in Ridawi Translations

This concise tract serves as an introductory work on the history of the compilation of the Qur’ān and its compilers. Written in 1322 AH, in reply to two questions about the compilation of the Qur’ān; one received from the author’s hometown, Bareilly, and the other from Aẓīmabād (Patna), Imām Aḥmad Riḍā, in his inimitable style – succinct but comprehensive – briefly explains why Sayyidunā ʿUthmān is referred to as jamiʿ al-Qur’ān (compiler of the Qur’ān), how many others are also conferred this title, who are the compilers, upon whose counsel was it compiled, and why it was compiled.
