Dedication to Learning & Preserving the Holy Qur’an
Hazrat Musleh-e-Maud (ra) further states:
“It is proven regarding Hazrat Ali (ra) that he had committed the Holy Quran to memory (hafiz) and in fact, he had started the work of compiling the Holy Quran according to the order of its revelation immediately after the demise of the Holy Prophet (sa).”
