@PhDniX @GabrielSaidR @therealsidky existence of the same doublets in lower layer of San'a 1 Mushaf or in other companions mushafs is the counter example of the main thesis of the article. There is no difference between Musahaf in this regard. Existence of doublets is not an outcome of editorial process but

@PhDniX @GabrielSaidR @therealsidky an intrinsic feature of Qur'an. supporting Harmonious Theory not the Two source or Redaction Theories.Doublets act as links between different parts of Qur'an. That is passages before & after them in different Surah's which they have appeared are similar/related in their content.

@PhDniX @GabrielSaidR @therealsidky Contrary to the main claim of the article based on the harmonious theory it is anticipated that the number of Makki/Makki and Madina/Madina pairs be more than Makki/ Madina pairs. Because Makki Surah's are similar to content & style to each other than Madanis & vice versa.

@PhDniX @GabrielSaidR @therealsidky Therefore an instance of a doublet if it is appeared in a Majkan surah it is more probable to be found in another Makjan Surah.Because the context of its first instance if appearance us more probable to be found in another Makki surah rather than a Madinan one and vice versa.

@PhDniX @GabrielSaidR @therealsidky

@PhDniX @GabrielSaidR @therealsidky Stories of Prophets & Punishment stories are found more in Makkan Surahs. Number 14 &15 in the Table are about the stories of Prophets Hud&Shu'ayb respectively. It is natural their repition be found in another narration of the same stories which more probably will be Makkan sura.

@PhDniX @GabrielSaidR @therealsidky @KhalilAndani
which lo and be hold is Sura Hud chapter 11 a Makkan. Doublets are definitely important for understanding structure of the Quran & its interpretation. They are parts that text folds on or link to itself.
For example case number 11 in the table discussed in paper:

@PhDniX @GabrielSaidR @therealsidky @KhalilAndani Q6:10/Q21:41
Messengers were certainly derided before you. Then those who ridiculed them were besieged by what they used to deride.

@PhDniX @GabrielSaidR @therealsidky @KhalilAndani Generally there were 2 type ofwarnings that messengers gave to the unbelievers punishment in this world &punishment in hereafter. Q6:10 talks about punishment in this world &Q21:41 punishment in hereafter. Doublet verse fits very well in both context.Linking the 2type of warnings

@PhDniX @GabrielSaidR @therealsidky @KhalilAndani In both cases punishment in this world and the punishment in here after overwhelm those who derided them unexpectedly. One innthiscworld and one after death which is certain and not too far for each individual.

@PhDniX @GabrielSaidR @therealsidky @KhalilAndani In regard to the lower text of San'a1 the recent article by Eleonore Cellard in JNES80 refutes Asma Hillali hypotheses & effectively leave us with the other onky alternative of B. Sadeghi's Companion's Mushafs which kind of refutes the main thesis of the article under discussion.
