The Preservation of the Holy Quran

The Revelation

The Quran was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) over a period of 23 years. Unlike other books, it was not revealed all at once but in response to specific events and needs of the community.

Compilation

While the Quran was memorized completely by many companions during the Prophet's life, it was standardized into a single written format during the Caliphate of Uthman (RA) to ensure unity in recitation.
