After the Prophet's death, the differences in the oral transmission of Quran, variant dialects, the difference of codices, and the lack of orthographical signs in the text lead to the appearance of variant readings, qira'at, of Quran. The
variant readings and arguments over the recognition of them and the
respected criterion resulted in the establishment of the knowledge of
Quran-reading. Using different sciences as grammar (syntax), hadith,
jurisprudence and exegesis of Quran, readers all over the Islamic world
innovated particular readings of Quran. Finally, Ibn Mujahid, using his
position as the chief reader of Baghdad and applying his political power and
authority selected the present seven readings from five important places as the
canonical ones and declared others as deviant (shadh). Besides the scholarly
feature of Ibn Mujahid, the cultural status of Baghdad, the reputation of kufa
in this field and the special condition of the fourth century, were the effective
factors which Ibn Mujahid by his intelligence and cleverness used to canonize
the seven readings of Quran.
