Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ جَمَعَ الْقُرْآنَ عَلَى عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَرْبَعَةٌ، كُلُّهُمْ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ أُبَىٌّ، وَمُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ، وَأَبُو زَيْدٍ، وَزَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ. قُلْتُ لأَنَسِ مَنْ أَبُو زَيْدٍ قَالَ أَحَدُ عُمُومَتِي.
Translation
Muhammad ibn Bashshar narrated to me: Yahya narrated to us: Shuʿba narrated to us, from Qatada, from Anas, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: Four people compiled the Quran during the Prophet’s lifetime, all of them from the Helpers: Ubayy, Muʿadh ibn Jabal, Abu Zayd, and Zayd ibn Thabit. I asked Anas, “Who was Abu Zayd?” He said, “One of my paternal uncles.”
