Qirat Al Ammah And Use Of Hamzah In Hijazi Script
Because there is no objection from the Quraish to the language of the Quran reported. Moreover, the Quran says that it is the language of its immediate audience.
@Irfan76 thank you Sir that does make sense. The only thing that confused me was his claim that the earliest grammarians attest that hamzah/glottal stop wasn’t pronounced in Hijaz. If that is true, why is it found in all later recitations? All your points make sense that such mass oral transmission through which the Quran reached us certainly makes it improbable that hamzah would be added when it was not recited that way by the early generations. But could you shed some light as to why the early grammarians would say that the hamza wasn’t pronounced by the Hijazi’s originally? Where is he getting that information from and is it possible he is misinterpreting or misunderstanding their statements? Because an academic certainly can’t present false information. TIA
