The 7 Forms Of The Quran... “Once during the lifetime of Allaah’s Messenger (saw), I heard Hishaam ibn Hakeem reciting Soorah al-Furqaan in salaah, and I noticed that he recited it differently from the way in which the Prophet (saw) had taught me. I was on the verge of jumping on him during his salaah, but I managed to control my anger until he completed his prayer. Upon its completion, I grabbed him by the neck of his cloak and said, ‘Who taught you this soorah that I heard you reciting?’ He replied, ‘Allaah’s Messenger (saw) taught it to me!’ I said, ‘You are a liar, for Allaah’s Messenger (saw) has taught it to me in a different way from the way you recited it!’ I then dragged him to Allaah’s Messenger (saw) and said to him, ‘I heard this person reciting Soorah al-Furqaan in a different way from the way that you taught me.’ Allaah’s Messenger (saw) then said, ‘Release him ‘Umar! Recite Hishaam!’ Hishaam recited in the same way that I heard him reciting previously. Then the Messenger of Allaah (saw) said, ‘It was revealed in this way!’ He then said, ‘Recite ‘Umar!’ When I completed reciting it the way he had taught me, he said, ‘It was also revealed in this way. This Qur’aan has been revealed in seven forms, so recite whichever is easiest for you. Sahih Al-Bukhari, vol. 6, p. 482, no. 514
