Abstract

Codification and determination of the order of the surahs of the Qur'an is an important aspect in the study of the Qur'an which is related to the systematics of the mushaf. The problem in this research is how the process of codification of the Qur'an took place from the time of the Prophet Muhammad SAW to the Caliph Uthman bin Affan. And examines the views of Imam As-Suyuti in his work Al-Itqan fi ulumu Al-Qur'an. The method used is qualitative with a type of library research, through deductive analysis of relevant primary and secondary sources. Research shows that the codification of the Quran took place gradually and systematically to maintain the purity of revelation, while the order of the surahs in the Mushaf was determined by the Prophet's guidance, which stemmed from revelation, not merely the ijtihad of the Companions. These findings confirm that the structure of the Mushaf of Uthman has both historical and theological legitimacy within the Islamic scholarly tradition.
