Discuss the preservation of the Quran.
The Quran has been meticulously preserved through both oral and written traditions since it was revealed over 1,400 years ago. It was memorized by the companions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and later compiled into a single book during the caliphate of Uthman ibn Affan. The Quran has remained unchanged in its original Arabic language, and millions of Muslims continue to memorize it in its entirety.
