> Zayd was later put in charge of the compilation of the Quran at the time of ʿUthmān ibn ʿAffān

Hopefully not being too pedantic with this clarification.

Wasn't Zayd ibn Thabbit originally put in charge of compilation at the time of Abu Bakr's khalifah? After the Battle of Yamama? I recall Abu Bakr having to be convinced to do the compilation in the first place. And then Zayd was again put in charge during the recompilation under ʿUthmān.

Yes, I can clarify that he was _again_ put in charge under Uthman. Good catch
