Muslims believe the Quran to be verbally revealed through angel [[Gabriel|Jibrīl]] (Gabriel) from God to [[Muhammad]] gradually over a period of approximately twenty-three years beginning in 610 [[Common Era|CE]], when Muhammad was forty, and concluding in 632 CE, the year of his death.<ref name="Britannica"/><ref name = LivRlgP338>''Living Religions: An Encyclopaedia of the World's Faiths,'' Mary Pat Fisher, 1997, page 338, I.B.

Shortly after Muhammad's death the Quran was compiled into a single book by order of the first [[Caliphate|Caliph]] [[Abu Bakr]] and at the suggestion of his future successor [[Umar]]. [[Hafsa]], Muhammad's widow and Umar's daughter, was entrusted with that Quranic text after the second Caliph Umar died.{{Citation needed|date=June 2011}} When the third Caliph Uthman began noticing slight differences in Arabic [[dialect]] he sought Hafsa's permission to use her text to be set as the standard dialect, the [[Quraish]] dialect now known as ''[[Fus'ha]]'' ([[Modern Standard Arabic]]). Before returning the text to Hafsa Uthman made several thousand copies of Abu Bakr's redaction and, to standardize the text, invalidated all other versions of the Quran. This process of formalization is known as the "[[Uthman Qur'an|Uthmanic recension]]".<ref name="Uthman">{{cite web|url=http://www.usc.edu/schools/college/crcc/engagement/resources/texts/muslim/hadith/bukhari/061.sbt.html#006.061.510 |title=CRCC: Center For Muslim-Jewish Engagement: Resources: Religious Texts |publisher=Usc.edu |date= |accessdate=2010-03-16}}</ref> The present form of the Quran text is accepted by most scholars as the original version compiled by Abu Bakr.<ref name = "Uthman" /><ref>See:
