Abstract:

The Hafs narration from Asim is currently one of the most common Quranic narrations, which has raised the question among later scholars as to why, despite the consensus of Muslims regarding at least seven readings and their mutawatir status, this narration enjoys such widespread popularity, and what are its causes and reasons? Since when has this expansion occurred? Which of the probable reasons and causes in this regard is more likely to be correct? In the present writing, through data analysis, the potential reasons and causes for this expansion and prevalence are critiqued and reviewed, and it has become clear that none of the proposed reasons or causes are sufficient, and the main cause remains shrouded in ambiguity.

Machine summary:

It is narrated from Makki bin Abi Talib (437 AH) that in the early third century, people in Basra recited according to the reading of Abu Amr and Yaqub, in Kufa according to the reading of Hamza and Asim, in Sham according to the reading of Ibn Amir, in Mecca according to the reading of Ibn Kathir, and in Medina according to the reading of Nafi; and in the early fourth century, Ibn Mujahid confirmed the name of al-Kisa'i (from the famous and seven readers) and removed Yaqub [from it]... Three) Imalah is considered part of the Hijazi dialects (Bustani, Arabic Dialects, 1386: 64), which is almost non-existent in the Hafs narration; in this regard, recitations such as Hamzah, Warsh, al-Kisa'i, Abu Amr, and Ibn Amir are closer to the Hijazi dialect (for more information, see: Bustani, Arabic Dialects in Quranic Recitations, 1386: entire work), except in the pronunciation of the word "al-Nabiy" which Hafs pronounces without a hamzah according to the Quraishi dialect. 8. Ibn Mujahid says: Muhammad bin Isa bin Hayyan has narrated from Nasr bin Ali from his father that Shu'bah said to him: "Look at what Abu Amr recites from what he chooses for himself, which reaches the people in an evidentiary (isnad) manner" (Ibn Mujahid, al-Sab'ah, 1400: 82; Ibn Asakir, Tarikh Madinat Dimashq, 1995: 67/110).
