Early manuscripts of the Qur'an were typically written on animal skin. We know that in the lifetime of the Prophet, parts of the revelation were written on all kinds of materials, such as bone, animal skin, palm risps, etc. The ink was prepared from soot.

Script
Duk rubutun Alkur'ani na farko ba shi da wani alamar digo ko alamar sautin harafi kamar yadda aka bayyana a sama. Haka kuma babu wasu kanun labarai ko rabe-rabe tsakanin surori, ko wani nau'in rarrabawa, ko kuma wata alama ta fili da ke nuna karshen aya. Malamai sun raba rubutun farko zuwa nau'i biyu:
All old Qur'anic script is completely without any diacritical points or vowel signs as explained above. Also there are no headings or separations between the sSras nor any other kind of division, nor even any formal indication of the end of a verse. Scholars distinguish between two types of early writing:
Kufi, wanda yake da nauyi sosai amma ba shi da yawan gaske.
Kufi, which is fairly heavy and not very dense.
Hijazi, wanda yake haske, mai yawa, kuma ɗan karkata zuwa dama.
Hijazi, which is lighter, more dense and slightly inclined towards the right.
Wasu sun yi imani cewa rubutun Hijazi ya fi rubutun Kufi tsufa, yayin da wasu ke cewa dukkansu sun kasance a amfani a lokaci guda, amma rubutun Hijazi shi ne salon da ba shi da tsari sosai. [Wannan shi ne ra'ayin N. Abbott: 'Ba za mu ƙara iya zana layin rarrabuwar lokaci tsakanin abin da aka saba kira rubutun Kufi da rubutun Naskhi ba, haka kuma ba za mu iya ɗaukar na ƙarshe a matsayin ci gaban na farko ba. Wannan ... yanzu yana buƙatar a amince da shi sosai. Kayan aikinmu sun nuna cewa akwai salo biyu da ke aiki a lokaci guda, dukkansu na halitta ne' (Abbott, op. cit., shafi na 16)]
Some believe that the Hijazi is older than the Kufi, while others say that both were in use at the same time, but that Hijazi was the less formal style. [This is the view of N. Abbott: 'We can no longer draw a chronological demarcation line between what are commonly termed the Kufi and the Naskhi scripts, nor can we consider the latter as a development of the former. This ... now demands a more general recognition. Our materials show that there were two tendencies at work simultaneously, both of them natural ones' (Abbott, op. cit., p.16)]

Some Peculiarities Of The Ancient Writing
Bayan an rubuta kwafi masu yawa na Alqur'ani bayan zamanin Annabi Muhammadu ﷺ da na Halifofi Masu Shiryayyu, kuma marubutan wadannan rubuce-rubuce sun kiyaye sosai rubutun Alqur'anin 'Uthmaniyya.

Numerous copies of the Qur'an were made after the time of the Prophet Muhammad and the Rightly-Guided Caliphs, and the writers of these manuscripts strictly observed the autography of the 'Uthmanic Qur'an. There are, compared to the usual Arabic spelling, some peculiarities. Here are a few of them, only concerning the letters alif, yti, WtiW, by way of examples: [For more examples see Kamal, op. cit., pp.47-9; a list of these peculiarities has been provided by M.

Ana yawan rubuta harafin alif a saman wani harafi maimakon bayansa.
The letter alif is often written on top of a letter instead of afterit.
Ana cire harafin ya (ko alif) na kalmar.
The letter ya (or alif) of the word is omitted.
