‒Early Copying, Punctuation and Translation of the Qur'an Individual Studies on Owners of Quran Copies‒
The history and authenticity of the Quran have been widely debated in Orientalism studies, and differing views on this subject have persisted to the present day. Omar Hamdan, Professor of Tafsir at the University of Tübingen, provides an in-depth examination of the oral and written tradition of the Quran, as well as the contribution of Mushaf projects to the Islamic world. This work closely examines and responds to the claims made by some Orientalists regarding the lahn-narration. He also provides information on some prominent Companions and Tabi'un who possessed personal copies of the Quran, often overlooked in contemporary research. Furthermore, the author offers striking analyses of the discipline of i'jam and the use of color in punctuation. This compilation presents various studies on Quranic history and early Quranic copies and serves as a continuation of his work, Der Koran als Kanon (Berlin 2020). Both studies are based on Hamdan's work titled Mine'l-vaḥyi'lmetluvv ile'l-muṣḥafi'l-mudevven (Amman 2020).
