"عَنْ أَبِى ظِبْيَانَ قَالَ: قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: أَىُّ القِرَاءَتَيْنِ تَعُدُّونَ أَوَّلَ؟ قُلنَا: قِرَاءَةُ عَبْدِ الله، قَالَ: لَا، إِنَّ رَسُولَ الله ﷺ كَانَ يُعْرَضُ عَلَيْه القُرآنُ فِى كُلِّ رَمَضَانَ إِلَّا العَامَ الَّذى قُبضَ فيه، فَإِنَّهُ عُرِضَ عَلَيْهِ مَرَّتَيْنِ، فَحَضَرَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّه فَشَهدَ مَا نسِخَ مِنْهُ وَمَا بُدِّلَ، وَإِنَّمَا شَقَّ ذِلِكَ عَلَى ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ مَا نُسِخَ منْهُ وَمَا بُدِّلَ، وَإِنَّمَا شَقَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَى ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ لأَنَّهُ عَدَلَ عَنْهُ معَ فَضْلِه وَسِنِّه، وَفَوَّضَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ بِمَنْزِلَةِ ابْنه، وَإِنَّمَا وَلَّى عثمَانُ زَيْد بْنَ ثَابِتٍ لِحُضُورِه غَيْبَةً عَبْدِ الله، وَلأَنَّهُ كَانَ يَكْتُبُ الوْحْىَ لِرَسُولَ الله ﷺ وَكتَبَ الصُّحُفَ فِى عَهْدِ أَبِى بَكْرٍ".

"From Abū Ẓabyān, who said: Ibn ʿAbbās said: Which of the two recitations do you count as the earlier? We said: The recitation of ʿAbdullāh. He said: No. The Qur'an used to be presented to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ every Ramadan, except in the year in which he was taken, when it was presented to him twice. ʿAbdullāh attended it and witnessed what was abrogated of it and what was changed. And it was hard on Ibn Masʿūd, what was abrogated of it and what was changed. And it was hard on Ibn Masʿūd because [the matter] was turned away from him despite his virtue and his age, and was entrusted to one who stood in the position of his son. ʿUthmān only appointed Zayd b. Thābit because of his presence during the absence of ʿAbdullāh, and because he used to write the revelation for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and wrote the manuscripts in the time of Abū Bakr."
