在奥斯曼（'Uthman）时期，古兰经诵读上的差异变得明显。奥斯曼与众位圣门弟子协商后，下令根据当时保存在哈芙赛（Hafsa）处的艾卜·伯克尔（Abu Bakr）的经卷（Suhuf）誊写一部标准的经本。

During the time of 'Uthman differences in reading the Qur'an became obvious, and after consultation with the Companions, 'Uthman had a standard copy prepared from the Suhuf of Abu Bakr that were kept with Hafsa at that time.

以下是《布哈里圣训实录》中所载的圣训：

The following is the report transmitted in the Sahih Bukhari:

阿奈斯·本·马立克传述：胡宰法·本·叶玛尼在叙利亚人和伊拉克人为征服亚美尼亚和阿塞拜疆而作战的时候来到奥斯曼面前。胡宰法担心他们（叙利亚人和伊拉克人）在诵读《古兰经》上的分歧，便对奥斯曼说：“信士的长官啊！在他们对经典（《古兰经》）产生分歧之前，请拯救这个民族，正如犹太人和基督徒之前所做的那样。”于是奥斯曼派人对哈福萨说：“请把《古兰经》的底本送来给我们，以便我们将《古兰经》的内容抄录成完整的副本，然后把底本归还你。”哈福萨便把底本送给了奥斯曼。奥斯曼随即命令宰德·本·萨比特、阿卜杜拉·本·祖拜尔、赛义德·本·阿斯和阿卜杜勒·拉哈曼·本·哈里斯·本·希沙姆，将底本重新抄写成完整的副本。奥斯曼对三位古赖氏人说：“如果你们与宰德·本·萨比特在《古兰经》的某个用词上有分歧，那就用古赖氏的方言来书写，因为《古兰经》是用他们的语言降示的。”他们照此办理，抄写了许多副本后，奥斯曼把原始底本归还给哈福萨。奥斯曼将他们所抄录的一份副本送往每个穆斯林省份，并下令将其余所有零散的或完整的《古兰经》资料全部焚毁。宰德·本·萨比特补充说：“我们抄录《古兰经》时，我遗漏了《艾哈宰布章》中的一节经文，而我曾听安拉的使者诵读过它。于是我们四处寻找，最终在哈栽美·本·萨比特·安萨里那里找到了它。”（那节经文是）：“信士中有些人对他们与安拉所立的盟约忠实不渝”（33：23）。［布哈里圣训集，第六卷，第某号］

Narrated Anas bin Malik: Hudhaifa bin Al-Yaman came to 'Uthman at the time when the people of Sham and the people of Iraq were waging war to conquer Arminya and Adharbijan. Hudhaifa was afraid of their (the people of Sham and Iraq) differences in the recitation of the Qur'an, so he said to 'Uthmfin, 'O chief of the Believers! Save this nation before they differ about the Book (Qur'an), as Jews and the Christians did before'. So 'Uthman sent a message to Hafsa saying, 'Send us the manuscripts of the Qur'an so that we may compile the Qur'anic materials in perfect copies and return the manuscripts to you'. Hafsa sent it to 'Uthman. 'Uthman then ordered Zaid bin Thabit, 'Abdullah bin Az-Zubair, Sa'id bin Al-'As and 'Abdur Rahman bin Hari-bin Hisham to rewrite the manuscripts in perfect copies. 'Uthman said to the three Quraishi men, 'In case you disagree with Zaid bin Thabit on any point in the Qur'an, then write it in the dialect of Quraish as the Qur'an was revealed in their tongue'. They did so, and when they had written many copies, 'Uthman returned the original manuscripts to Hafsa. 'Uthman sent to every Muslim province one copy of what they had copied, and ordered that all the other Qur'anic materials whether written in fragmentary manuscripts or whole copies, be burnt. Zaid bin Thabit added, 'A verse from Sura al-Ahzab was missed by me when we copied the Qur'an and I used to hear Allah's Apostle reciting it. So we searched for it and found it with Khuzaima bin Thabit Al-Ansari'. (That verse was): 'Among the Believers are men who have been true in their convenant with Allah' (33: 23). [Bukhari, VI, No.

[510] 以下事件促成了奥斯曼穆斯哈夫（经卷）的编订：

510] The following events led to the preparation of the mushaf of 'Uthman:

穆斯林之间曾就诵读《古兰经》的正确方式产生过争议。

 Disputes had arisen among the Muslims about the correct manner of reciting the Qur'an.

奥斯曼向哈芙萨借用了保存在她那里的经卷（Suhuf）。

 'Uthman borrowed the Suhuf, which were kept with Hafsa.

奥斯曼下令四位圣门弟子，其中包括宰德·本·萨比特，将经文抄写成完整的副本。

 'Uthman ordered four Companions, among them Zaid bin Thabit, to rewrite the script in perfect copies.

奥斯曼将这些抄本送往穆斯林的主要中心地区，用以取代当时流传的其他抄本。

 'Uthman sent these copies to the main centres of the Muslims to replace other materials that were in circulation.

约在公元610年,穆罕默德ﷺ的先知使命开始了。

Around 610 Muhammad's Prophethood commences.

第一次启示于希拉山的山洞中 最初以口耳相传的方式流传，后来才形成文字记录。

1st revelation in cave on Mount Hira Transmitted orally, later in written form.

610–632 年，穆罕默德ﷺ在麦加和麦地那。

610-32 Muhammad in Makka and Madina.

多次持续的启示，经众人记诵而口耳相传，并由多位圣门弟子在先知本人的直接指示下将启示记录成文。

Continious revelation on numerous occasions Transmitted orally after memorisation by many, and writing down of revelation by various companions upon the direct instruction of the Prophet himself.

第632年先知去世。最后一次启示在他去世前几天降下。

632 Prophets death. Last revelation few days before this.

完整的启示既保存在众多圣门弟子的记忆中，也记录在各种书写材料之上。

Compelete revelation left behind both in the memories of various companions as well as on various writing materials.

先知去世时，完整的启示已经留存下来。

At the death of the Prophet, complete revelation left behind.

632-34 Abu Bakr's caliphate 633 During the battle of Yamama several companions who knew the Quran by heart were killed. Wait, I should translate into Chinese. Here is the translation: 632-34年 阿布·伯克尔的哈里发时期 633年 在也玛墓战役中，数位熟记《古兰经》的圣门弟子殉难。

632-34 Abu Bakrs caliphate 633 During the battle of Yamama several companions who knew the Quran by heart were killed.

阿布·巴克尔指示宰德·本·萨比特编纂一部包含全部启示的完整抄本。

Abu Bakr instructs Zaid b. Thabit to prepare a single copy of the complete revelation.

翟德·本·萨比特将所有启示汇集到"苏suhuf"中，既包括口述来源，也包括书面来源，并要求每一段经文都须有两位见证人。这些"苏suhuf"由阿布·伯克尔保管。

Zaid b. Thabit brings together all the revelation into the Suhuf from both oral as well as written sources demanding two witnesses for each piece. The Suhuf remain with Abu Bakr.

在先知去世后的第一年或第二年，整部启示被抄写到书页（Suhuf）上。

During the 1st/2nd year after the Prophets death the entire revelation was copied onto sheets (Suhuf).

哈里发欧麦尔的统治（634–644）

634-44 Umar's Caliphate.

启示作为先知ﷺ所留下的遗产，既以口头形式流传，也被记录在各种材料上。其内部的编排顺序为穆斯林所熟知，并被他们严格遵守。

The revelation, as left by the Prophet, was available both orally and written on various materials. Its internal order was known to the Muslims and strictly observed by them.

阿布·伯克尔收集了这些零散的材料，并将其内容抄写在书页（Suhuf）上。

Abu Bakr collected these loose materials and had their contents written on to sheets (Suhuf).

艾卜·伯克尔曾将各种口述和书面材料汇集成一份完整的抄本。此后，这份抄本由欧麦尔保存，再后来由他的女儿哈法赛保存。

Abu Bakr had made one single copy from the various verbal and written material. This copy was later kept by 'Umar and then by his daughter Hafsa.

“Uthman 让人从这份抄本复制了许多份，分送到穆斯林世界的各个地方，而原本的 Suhuf 则归还给了 Hafsa，并一直留在她那里直到她去世。此后，据 Ibn Abi Dawud 记载，Marwan b. Hakam（卒于 65/684 年）从她的继承人手中收回了这份抄本并将其销毁，大概是担心它可能成为新纷争的起因。“Uthman 自己也留存了其中一份副本。这一经文版本，又称“Uthman 定本（Mushaf 'Uthman）”，实际上构成了 sahaba 的 ijma'（共识），他们全体都同意，其中包含了 Muhammad ﷺ 从 Allah 那里带来的启示。

'Uthman had many copies prepared from this copy and sent them to various places in the Muslim world, while the original Suhuf were returned to Hafsa and remained with her until her death. Later, Marwan b. Hakam (d. 65/684), according to a report in Ibn Abi Dawud, collected it from her heirs and had it destroyed, presumably fearing it might become the cause for new disputes. 'Uthman also kept one of the copies for himself. This version of the text, also known as 'Mushaf 'Uthman in fact constitutes the ijma'(consensus) of the sahaba, all of whom agreed that it contained what Muhammad had brought as revelation from Allah.

根据伊本·阿比·达乌德（117-8页），哈贾季执政时期对《古兰经》进行了十一处改动，其中包括：将5:48中的“shari'atan wa minhajan”改为“shir'atan wa minhajan”；将12:45中的“ana atikum bi-ta'wilihi”改为“ana unabbi'ukum bi ta'wilihi”。

[According to Ibn Abi Dawud (117-8) eleven changes were made under al-Hajjaj, among them e.g. 5:48 'shari'atan wa minhajan' into 'shir'atan wa minhajan'; 12:45 'ana atikum bi-ta'wilihi' into ana unabbi'ukum bi ta'wilihi.

根据伊本·阿比·达乌德的记载，这些是在编纂奥斯曼的《古兰经》定本时所出现的错误（第37-49页）。

These are again according to Ibn Abi Dawud mistakes which were made in the preparation of Uthmans copy (pp. 37-49).

[12:45 例如]的第一个版本是乌班（Ubay）的读法（同上，第138页）和伊本·麦斯欧德（Ibn Masud）的读法（同上，第39页）。] 这一文本的广泛流传及其无可争议的权威性，也可以从锡发音战役（伊历37年）的记载中推知：先知去世27年后，且在奥斯曼的抄本颁布五年之后，穆阿威叶的军队将古兰经的书页绑在长矛上，以中止这场战斗。[参见苏尤蒂，《哈里发史》，H. 译]

The first version of 12:45 e.g. was the reading of 'Ubay (ibid. p. 138) and Ibn Masud (ibid. p. 39).] The wide distribution of this text and its undisputed authority can also be deduced from the reports on the battle of Siffin (A.H. 37) 27 years after the death of the Prophet, and five years after 'Uthman's copies were distributed, Mu'awiya's troops fixed sheets from the Qur'an on their spears to interrupt the battle. [See Suyuti, History of the Caliphs. transl. H.
