It is commonly accepted that the spelling of the pre-exilic books of the Bible was generally defective like that of contemporary epigraphy, and that the matres lectionis were inserted into the original texts by scribes during the first half of the Second Temple period. This article argues that the orthography of the ancient books of the Bible was from its beginning similar to that of the MT . The difference between the current biblical spelling and the defective spelling of the inscriptions should instead be understood as a matter of different registers .

This study investigates the origin, transmission, and reception of two hadith with doctrinal significance on the formation of early Sunni identity and memory of the past—the Mountain hadith, in which the Prophet designates each of the first three caliphs as either a saint or a martyr; and the Ten Promised Paradise hadith, which names the first four caliphs and another five or six Companions as the future residents of paradise. The study identifies Qatāda b. Diʿāma and Hilāl b. Yasāf as the earliest transmitters of both hadith. Analysis of their transmission of the Ten Promised Paradise hadith reveals the emergence of a seminal trend among Kufan traditionists, who, by advocating for an all-embracing approach to ʿUthmān, ʿAlī, and the latter’s opponents, allowed various Kufan groups to find common ground, which was also accompanied by the formation of a comprehensive historical narrative on the first fitna.
本研究调查了两段圣训的起源、传播和接受情况，这两段圣训在教义上对早期逊尼派身份的形成和对过去的记忆具有重要意义--《山岳圣训》，在这段圣训中，先知将前三位哈里发分别指定为圣人或殉道者；以及《十方乐土圣训》，这段圣训将前四位哈里发和另外五六位同伴指定为未来的乐土居民。该研究指出，卡塔达-本-迪亚玛（Qatāda b. Diʿāma）和希拉尔-本-亚萨夫（Hilāl b. Yasāf）是这两段圣训最早的传播者。通过分析他们对 "十方乐园 "圣训的传述，可以发现库法传统学家中出现了一种开创性的趋势，他们主张以一种包罗万象的方式对待ʿUthmān、ʿAlī 和后者的反对者，从而使不同的库法团体找到了共同点，同时也形成了关于第一次 "灾难 "的全面历史叙事。

The oral transmission of the Quran has long been the subject of dispute. Some scholars have asserted that the canonical reading traditions are products of attempts at deciphering the ʿUthmānic text without reference to a living oral tradition. Although our understanding of the written Quran in early Islam has advanced considerably in recent years, the same cannot be said for the oral Quran. A careful study of the consonantal dotting patterns between the canonical readings reveals independent Medinan, Meccan-Basran, and Kufan regional traditions. Through additional statistical analysis and corresponding manuscript evidence, I demonstrate the existence of an inherited oral tradition that likely dates to the time of the ʿUthmānic recension and among the first generation of the followers of Muḥammad.
