The stages are the stage of origin estimated in the first four Hijri centuries, the stage of development which extended between the fifth and eighth Hijri centuries, and finally, the stage of spread which started from the ninth century to the present time.

Results: The research reached to a result with a general overview of the history of Qur'anic readings in the Arabian Peninsula, highlighting the role of its main regions in this respect and focusing on the essential issues by avoiding the historical narration which is loaded with characters and digressions. Moreover, the research draws attention to some of the influences that accompanied the journey of Qur’anic readings in the Arabian Peninsula from the Prophet’s era to the present day.
