حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ وَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

فَأَمَرَ عُثْمَانُ زَيْدَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ وَسَعِيدَ بْنَ الْعَاصِ وَعَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ وَعَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ أَنْ يَنْسَخُوهَا فِي الْمَصَاحِفِ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ إِذَا اخْتَلَفْتُمْ أَنْتُمْ وَزَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ فِي عَرَبِيَّةٍ مِنْ عَرَبِيَّةِ الْقُرْآنِ فَاكْتُبُوهَا بِلِسَانِ قُرَيْشٍ فَإِنَّ الْقُرْآنَ أُنْزِلَ بِلِسَانِهِمْ فَفَعَلُوا

ʿUthmān ordered Zayd b. Thābit, Saʿīd b. al-ʿĀṣ, ʿAbdullāh b. al-Zubayr and ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. al-Ḥārith b. Hishām to write the Quran in the form of a maṣāḥif (books) and said to them. "In case you disagree with Zayd b. Thābit regarding any dialectic Arabic utterance of the Quran, then write it in the dialect of Quraysh, for the Quran was revealed in this dialect." So they did it.
