Abstract

The article deals with the issue around the list of the Osman's Quran (Mushaf ʻUthman) in the history of the Golden Horde. On the basis of information from the medieval Arabic sources, it is proved that one of the copies of the Osman's Quran was presented to the Golden Horde ruler Berke by the Mamluk Sultan of Egypt Baybars as a sign of friendship and respect for the fact that Berke Khan became a Muslim and spread the traditions of Islam in the territory of the Golden Horde. The history of this list of the Quran is mysterious, and many scientists and religious figures turned to it, as well as the Tatar historian-educator Shihab al-Din al-Marjani. The article is supposed to consider the relationship between the information of the medieval Arab chroniclers and the statements of Sh. Marjani about the authenticity of the copy of the Quran, which is today on the territory of Uzbekistan.
