چکیده:
The fame and popularity of Hafs from Asem method of Qurān recitation and its conformity with the most of available versions of the Qurān has made its evidence authenticity and validity very significant. Deploying an analytical-descriptive method، the present paper attempts to criticize the available views in this regard. In some references of the Shia and Sunni biographies of the narrators of traditions، Abdarrahman Selmi، Asem and Hafs are weakened while Othman is regarded as among Abu Abdarrahman’s scholars. The investigations showed that proving the affiliation of Abdarrahman to Othman demands a strong documentation and evidence. The reasons led to Asem’s weakening in transmitting traditions are in contradiction to his consolidations and focus to the Qurān recitation. The origin for Haf’s weakening was that he was mistaken with Hafs Basari and Azadi and not narrating the ancients’ sayings correctly. Likewise، Othman’s presence in this recitation’s evidence is null due to some reasons. Using historic and biographies of the narrators of traditions references، this writing proves that the weak evidence of this recitation is not reliable.

Examination of the Narrators (Rijal) of the Recitation of Hafs from Asim Asim recited the Quran to Abu Abd al-Rahman ibn Habib al-Sulami, a Shiite who was one of the companions of Imam Ali7, and also to Zirr ibn Hubaysh, who had also taken his recitation from Abdullah ibn Masud.
Therefore, the narrators of the recitation of Hafs from Asim are Imam Ali7, Abu Abd al-Rahman ibn Habib al-Sulami, Asim, and Hafs (Ma'rifat, al-Tamhid, 2/65).
It is clear that proving all or even some of these matters regarding Abu Abd al-Rahman is subject to reflection and requires strong documentation; especially since Sheikh Tusi has considered him among the companions of Imam Ali7 (Tusi, Ikhtiyar Ma'rifat al-Rijal, 72) and narrations from him have been transmitted in three of the Four Books of the Shiites, namely Man La Yahduruhu al-Faqih (Saduq, 4/235), al-Kafi (Kulayni, 5/4, Hadith 6), and Tahdhib al-Ahkam (Tusi, Tahdhib al-Ahkam, 6/123, Hadith 216).
2. The presence of Uthman in the chain of narration of Hafs's recitation from Asim In some books, Uthman ibn Affan is mentioned as one of the teachers of Abu Abd al-Rahman al-Sulami's recitation, and even in some sources, the name of Uthman is mentioned before the name of Imam Ali(as) (Dhahabi, Ma'rifat al-Qurra, 1/147).
It has also been narrated that Abu Abd al-Rahman al-Sulami considered Imam Ali(as) to be the sole authority in recitation (Dhahabi, Ma'rifat al-Qurra al-Kibar, 1/108; Ibn al-Jazari, Ghayat al-Nihayah, 1/546).
