Why Hafs Recitation Appears In Ottoman Time?
Hafs is recitation not a manuscript. Since you didnt provide reference, its difficult to evaluate the claim. If you talk about manuscripts of Quran, western scholarship has a consensus that there are very few errors which van putten associate with scribal errors if compared to the oldest manuscripts. You can watch van putten’s nterviews at mythvision channel Or here in highlights https://youtu.be/BwZ7S2C4Mtw About recitation, a non arab person learn it by diacritics on the word. Since ottoman empire was mostly based on non arab population, they produced it in large numbers. He may be basing it on that (its just a conjucture as u didnt provide the reference to original wordings of Shady Naseer) Note: please provide proper reference to understand the context of cited work.
