The Emir of UAE has made a scan of the whole Topkapi Quran from Turkey which is attributed to be the copy that the caliph Uthman made... It is being sold at 225usd per copy...

Who knows, if any of you has the money maybe would want to get a copy of this.. Just for research purposes...

Salaam WayFinder,

Thanks for the link. This book should be very good in terms of Qur'anic research...

Peace,

There is very few things we know about the Mushaf of Topkapi... From what I read, not much studies have been done on it... I also cannot find much online information on this Mushaf... I read on a website somewhere that this mushaf too is incomplete and partial like the Tashkent Mushaf... Any more information on these mushafs are welcomed...

Did anyone here ever purchase this? i would like to order it, but not if it did not turn out to be what it seems to be. How many pages does it have of photographed text? Is it a complete compilation of the manuscript, or only partial?

Salam,

I have a partial copy of it which I did some research on way back...It is a sloppy Quran with lots of missing words and misspellings...There is no way that this was the Quran of Uthman or any of the early scribes...More likely its just a bad copy someone had and passed on through the generations.

Where did you get the partial copy? i'd love a taste-test )
