Abstract :This study was prepared to evaluate the English orientalist John Burton’s views based on his book The Collection of The Qur’ān. Burton was a prominent figure known for his works on the history of the Qur’ān, in the context of the Qur’ānic history in particular, and his efforts to explore the nature of the comments which included the process of the development of the Qur’ānic texts and its far-reaching history after the Prophet Mohammad (pbuh). In contrast to the other orientalists, Burton had a different approach in some topics. From time to time, he criticized other orientalists and tried to connect the issue of jam al-Qur’ān with the naskh (abrogation) and attended to seperate Qur’ān and Mushaf concepts in a sharp contrast. This study basicly aims to examine and explain John Burton’s opinions about the history of the Qur’ān, in other words, the issues related to the textualization and the authenticity of the Qur’ān.Keywords : Kur\'ân Tarihi, Kur\'ân\'ın Cem\'i, Mushaf, Oryantalist, John Burton
