A revelatory account of early Islam's great diversity by the world's leading scholar of early Qur'anic manuscriptsAccording to Muslim dogma, the recited and written text of the Qur'an as we know it today scrupulously reflects the divine word as it was originally sent down to Muhammad. Not only did the faithful initially adopt a flexible attitude An examination of early Islamic sources, including accounts of prophetic sayings, and cross-checks against the oldest Qur'anic manuscripts reveal that plurality was in fact the outstanding characteristic of the genesis and transmission of the Qur'an, both textually and orally.By piecing together information about alternative wordings eliminated from the canonical version, the one that gradually came to be imposed during the first centuries of Islam, Franois Droche shows that the Qur'an long remained open to textual diversity.
