    Peace Noon.
    Why only half a dozen old manuscripts ?

    SO may be the 1924 version was copied from a different manuscript and not the half dozen you mention?

    What was in the original copy of the prophet? Do you know for sure?

    Could the problem that you think is with the 1924 version be with the half dozen old manuscripts?

    GOD bless you.
    Peace.

      peace good logic,
      you haven't researched at all else wouldn't ask why only half a dozen?
      only a few survived from that period which were not available in 1924
      1924 they picked hafs discarded all other versions cast them in the Nile

      original is not available could be one of the earliest i.e. closest to source

      go study see evidence early manuscripts different writing style, structure, etc., then hundreds of years later we see different style emerge e.g., some initials separated, different structure, 1000 alifs added especially in the middle of words then 1924 Cairo then King Fahd Qur'an then https//tanzil.net they add 1000 more alifs and split words in two like ىاىها O you!

      again simple question 4026 (back then 4025) was it AND that / OR that?
      the only way both could be right is if the word used in the language spoken would translate as AND/OR since those parts of dialog of past generations is a translation paraphrasing into Arabic.

      here is another example hafs/warsh variant (they are numerous)

      5724 الذىن the ones ىبخلون stingy وىامرون and directing الناس the people بالبخل in the stinginess ومن and who ىتول turns away فان so indeed الله the God هو huwa/he (word missing in warsh?) الغنى the ample الحمىد the praiseworthy

      do we go with oldest available manuscripts and/or something else?

        Peace Noon.
        I get what you are saying. So we ask the following

        Do the old Mushafs also differ in some way or are they all identical?

        Why didn t they leave the old original one parallel with the new like you would with language translated Qorans now? i.e leave the original as it was from the beginning.

        Is any of it GOD guided?

        I work with the hafs version ,but I can also see that I can use all the other versions regardless of the differences that can be overcome by comparison of the verses -subject and context- The study has a basic criteria which is GOD guidance/teaching as far as my experience has shown me.

        That sums up what I am saying to you about the differences i.e the collective verses on the subject will highlight for you the general message .Other verses will also show you the style and language of Qoran. to compare and check anomalies/sense and reasoning like letters,words out of context and contradictions.
        The search for the answer we are looking for is ongoing and the correction of additions and false interpretations is ongoing.
        In short it is not the difference in letters or odd words that is worrying but the false meaning of thousands of words and sentences of verses that exist in all the interpretations of the Mushafs that is troublesome and alarming.
        Thank you brother.
        GOD bless you.
        Peace.

          peace good logic

          again not about hafs, old manuscripts pre-date him and warsh by 100+ years
          old depends, some are also 100+ years apart and no original that's available

          it's physical evidence from that time period not history according to someone

          the closest to the time of revelation have in common

          1. initials alif lam meem et al not separate as today's
          2. chapter titles are there as they are in current copies
          3. the vast majority of differences are mostly with alifs
          4. there are also variations on words or missing words

          personally disagree with much of today's interpretation e.g., inheritance, kalala meaning etc., likewise much can be determined via context, example

          21112 قل qul/say (if قال qāla/said – in context who said?)

          never states Qur'an (different word) is protected anyone can edit/delete/burn
          381 ص saad والقران and (by) the Qur’an ذى contains الذكر l-dhikri/the reminder

          oldest manuscript 568-645 CE (95.4%) disagrees/pre-dates hafs/warsh (died ~800)

          https//corpuscoranicum.de/en/verse-navigator/sura/22/verse/4/manuscripts/158/page/82v

          21109 توعدون tuaduna/thou promise being (wa missing?)

          توعدن

          222 وترى and thou see الناس the people سكرى sukārā/drunk (with alif?)
          وما and not هم themselves بسكرى bisukārā/in drunkenness (with alif?)

          سكرىا
          بسكرىا

          224 كتب written علىه upon him انه that he من man/who (missing?) تولاه befriends him
          فانه so indeed he ىضله misguided him وىهدىه and guided him الى towards عذب punishment السعىر the blaze

            Peace Noon.

            Since the original cannot be identified and with its exact date, the problem cannot be solved with certainty..
            Predated versions can also contain human errors.

            If you are satisfied with your search and have your evidence ,then work with an old complete manuscript.
            I am satisfied ,through my search, to carry on working with many manuscripts regardless of the changes.

            Thanks brother.
            Peace.

              وَقَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ ذَرُونِـىٓ أَقْتُلْ مُوسَـىٰ وَلْيَدْعُ رَبَّهُۥٓۖ

              And Fir'aoun/Pharaoh said to his chiefs, "You people give me the leave so that I should kill Musa and let him call his Sustainer Lord —

              إِنِّـىٓ أَخَافُ أَن يُبَدِّلَ دِينَكُـمْ أَوْ أَن يُظْهِرَ فِـى ٱلۡأَرْضِ ٱلْفَسَادَ .٢٦

              Since I am certainly afraid that he may cause change/replacement of system/procedure of life of you people or he may cause disturbance/in equilibrium/disrupt status quo in the country".

              The وَ is not possible grammatically. Waw conjuncts. It is apprehension of two possibilities. Giving options either---or

                also وَأَنَّ wa-anna (anna i.e., an inna)/and that indeed

                scribes close to revelation didn't all error on the same word

                likewise, no fatha, kasra, damma diacritic marks back then

                  The hundred percent-correct speech identification value in literary terms is Eloquence par excellence. It is affect of superb composition of Qur’ān enables the reader to pronounce successive syllables easily and smoothly with no stress and fatigue on vocal cavity. This is indicative of superb coherence and contiguity in the text. It is superbly aligned not only for eyes by orthographic adjustments but also in the flow of sound waves generated by the syllables that help the auditory apparatus to retain and smoothly absorb them.

                  إِنِّـىٓ أَخَافُ أَن يُبَدِّلَ دِينَكُـمْ أَوْ أَن يُظْهِرَ فِـى ٱلۡأَرْضِ ٱلْفَسَادَ .٢٦

                  Since I am certainly afraid that he may cause change/replacement of system/procedure of life of you people or he may cause disturbance/in equilibrium/disrupt status quo in the country".

                  Instead of أَوْ put Wa and read the Ayah with little sound. Do we feel some difference?

                      aw an yuẓ'hira fī l-arḍi l-fasāda

                      In 423, Aw cannot be the choice. It is part of compound complex sentence conjunct by waw.

                      وَأَن تَجْـمَعُوا۟ بَيْـنَ ٱلۡأُخْتَيْـنِ إِلَّا مَا قَدْ سَلَفَۗ

                      In addition, it is also prohibited that you might join-simultaneously collect two sisters in your Nikah/Matrimonial bond. However, that which has happened in the past that is a past-retrospective matter —

                      اور اس کی بھی حرمت و تحریم ہے کہ اپنے نکاح میں دو بہنوں کو مجتمع کرو۔یہ فوری نافذ العمل ہوگااس کا اطلاق ماضی میں جو ہو گیا اس پر نہیں ہوگا
                      It is
                      وَ حُرِّمَتْ عَلَيْكُـمْ أَن تَجْـمَعُوا۟ بَيْـنَ ٱلۡأُخْتَيْـنِ إِلَّا مَا قَدْ سَلَفَۗ
