Overview

A Uthmanic copy of the Qur'an kept at the place where the she-camel knelt, in Busra. Ibn Fadl Allah al-Umari mentions that it bears traces of blood. 2

The record holds nothing beyond this: an additional source is needed, especially on Busra and on the chain of attribution for this claim.
