I respect Shady Nasser for his sense of tact and openness to critical studies of the Quran and Islamic history.

Thank you Dr Gabriel and Dr Shady Nasser for a fantastic discussion As an ex Muslim, i really appreciate seeing a very different side of islam from an academic level that we aren't generally exposed to growing up

It's brilliant seeing the collaboration of two such excellent scholars. Hoping for more like this.

go Dr Reynolds! Great guests today, such an important topic! Alhamdulillah

Good to see more videos on how the Quran came together!

Thank you all!

This is a message to All the Nations

Professor Nasser is great! Thank you Prof. Reynolds for your work on this channel!

What a great second interview; Nasser’s scholarship on variant readings has always been phenomenal. Clarifying research themes for a layperson audience is always appreciated.

I much prefer professor Nasser when he offers personal explanations (like a detective) based more on reason and observation rather then just explaining away the standard islamic narrative. These texts didn’t fall from the sky after all and the encyclopaedic volume of variants should drown any notion of tawator.

Any possibility of discussing the following in detail: 1) The history of Quran publishing materials usage like bones, clays, parchments, etc.? 2) The diacritics standardization history of using fathah, kasrah, and dammah? 3) The History of the Quran (97 videos) by Dr Shehzad Saleem?

Great video. And brave.

Great conversation! Your channel motivates me to finish my master thesis!

Here from mythvision pod.

the speaker basically put forward the classical narrative of the collection of the quran with Othman etc. but there was no discussion of the historical or current evidence or confirmation of that narrative. He says there is no reason to doubt those sources per se, which fair enough, but to what degree are they reliable.

Looking forward for more updates like this. TQ.

This is a fair assessment, indeed. I see a shift in Dr. Shady's conclusions, which didn't go in the direction Dr. Gabriel might have wanted. Dismissing the traditional narrative through oral transmission and Hadith in its entirety is a straight-up pseudo-scholarship in the guise of academic scholarship. Thank you, Dr Gabriel, for at least trying to be unbiased in your approach to Quranic studies.

Thank you for this beneficial livestream, Dr.!

What I was missing from the discussion were the impact of Abd Al Maliks language reforms. Abd Al Malik the Marwanian ( not ibn Marwan) instituted a language reform where arabic would be the lingua franca instead of syrioaramaic in his empire. The langauage of the Quran is arabic but its script is syrioaramaic and the vastness of the Classic syriac language totally outshadow the vastness of the arabic language. Abd Al Maliks language reforms led to people slowly forgetting syriac and hence the text of the Quran without diacritics became harder and harder to read as the years went by which naturally resulted in different readings across the empire. Gabriel invite Thomas Alexander or Christoph Luxenberg and have a fruitful discussion on these issues as true critical historians just like you do when you invite Bible schoolars to your show.

Thank you for the interview!

this was a very interesting listen. Thank you!

Quran has been written by Prophet and also collected in the book by him with the help of Almighty God.

14:45 the collection of Abu Bakr was passed onto Hafsa because the 3rd khalifa had not yet been elected. The 2nd khalifa, Umar, left behind a committee to elect the 3rd khalifa; so when Umar passed away, the collection of Abu Bakr, which was with Umar, got passed to his daughter Hafsa, who was also a wife of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

How Quranic verses memorization worked if not doing it chronologically as the revelations received by Muhammad during the last 23 years of his life? If so, why the Quran now not structured accordingly in the chronological order?

He's the real Slim Shady

Amazing conversation!

Wonderful interview. Thank you for bringing this to us!

It is bewildering how such a highly educated person cannot see that a "holy god" has certain standards to meet like purifying the soul of people to meet The Holy God and how is it done in islam thru sex, enticements, power , killing and threats and the humongous difference in the Holiness of Jesus which teaches love, mercy and forgiveness and compassion

What we need is hard evidence not stories

This is to prove that iskam is not a Abrahamic Religion. The origins of islsm is pagan not bade on Yahweh.

Has anyone studying the religion of Islam realized that Aisha's testimony found in the earliest Hadith regarding Muhammad's first revelation has a major timeline issue? According to historical timeline, Aisha (born 623 A.D.) was not living when Muhammad visited the cave and claimed to have an encounter / revelation (610 A.D.). How, then, was she able to give testimony and it become one of the most 'trusted' narrations? This claim breaks the very foundation of Hadith. Khadija (595 A.D. - 619 A.D.) had already passed by the time Aisha was born. If Hadith is supposed to be word of mouth from eye witnesses who saw / heard Muhammad, how is this major issue resolved, reconciled, or justified? Remember, the story is that Muhammad had an experience (610 A.D.), then told his first wife Khadijah, who in turn told her cousin who was a Nestorian Christian. This brings another issue that I'll mention just in case that first issue isn't weighty enough: that man (Khadijah's cousin) is the one who suggested to Muhammad the encounter was the angel Gabriel. In the testimony, the entity did not introduce themselves. This is another issue, but I digress. It begs the conclusion that it was likely Muhammad himself who told this story to his young wife Aisha... and her recounting it to the many Muslims of her day, becoming the beginning of the narrations of Hadith and arguably the foundation of the religion, is clearly flawed according to Islamic jurisprudence and rules of legitimacy.

With the amount of mistakes Shady makes and his very superficial knowledge of the Quranic sciences, I find it amazing how he managed to secure a job at one of the worlds most famous schools. 'Catch me if you can' type of story on display 👍

How is this scholarship they havent come weth not one fact just a bunch of guesses . Two fools

All those variants are ridiculous in the explanation

Quran is transmitted through Tawatur by all of Muslims through 1400 years if thr wuld have been a different quran we wuld have different versions of it like bible has many versions and many manuscripts that differ with each other the qiraat are very well recorded to the time of prophet s.a.w the version of bible are not even close to the early centuries
