Requested move 29 November 2024

Uthman's QuranMushaf of Uthman – I suggest this move because:

  1. As this article is about a codex (or mushaf) and it is consistent with other articles. (Mushaf of Ali and Mushaf of Aisha).
  2. Uthman Quran is a redirect to Samarkand Kufic Quran, an early manuscript (not a codex) and this title makes it very ambiguous for the reader. Please note that we also have Uthman Taha Quran (a modern-day calligraphy of Quran).
  3. Arabic Wikipedia (the native language of this book) has used this title.
  4. Scholarly sources do not use this title. 'Codex of Uthman' and 'Uthmanic codex' are common. If the word mushaf is obscure, I suggest the word codex to be used instead.

Support "Uthmanic codex": On Google Scholar, it has by far the most hits, above "Codex of Uthman", "Mushaf of Uthman", "Uthman's Quran." ―Howard🌽33 15:47, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
