AMONG THE RECITERS OF THE QURAN

'Ali not only knew the Quran by heart but shortly after the Holy Prophet's
death undertook to arrange the Quran in the order in which it had been
revealed'
-------


ARRANGEMENTS OF CHAPTERS AND VERSES BY ALI


After the Holy Prophet's death Ali did not call on Abu Bakr (who had
been elected Caliph) for some time. Abu Bakr sent for him and asked him
whether he was displeased with his election as Caliph. Ali replied that it
was not so, but that he had been busy in copying out the Quran in the order
in which it had been revealed, as he had resolved at the time of the death
of the Prophet that he would undertake this duty. This also shows that in
the time of the Holy Prophet the Quran used to be recited in a certain order
and that order was different from the order in which it had been revealed.
That is why Ali decided that he should copy it out in the order in which it
had been revealed so that for purposes of history that arrangement should
also be preserved.
