	Old Hijazi is the Arabic spoken in the Hijaz region, which includes Mecca and Medina~~, at the time of Muhammed~~. The characteristics of this language were revealed by (1) early Arabic texts written in Greek and Hebrew letters, (2) the investigation into the Quranic Consonantal Text (QCT) which is the underlying consonantal skeleton (in Arabic, rasm رسم) of the Qur'an. Old Hijazi differs markedly in pronunciation and grammar from the later classical Arabic that is imposed upon the Quran by modern day Muslims and scholars who follow the Muslim tradition of Quranic readings.		Old Hijazi is the Arabic spoken at the time of Muhammad in the Hijaz region, which includes Mecca and Medina. The characteristics of this language were revealed by (1) early Arabic texts written in Greek and Hebrew letters, (2) the investigation into the Quranic Consonantal Text (QCT) which is the underlying consonantal skeleton (in Arabic, rasm رسم) of the Qur'an. Old Hijazi differs markedly in pronunciation and grammar from the later classical Arabic that is imposed upon the Quran by modern day Muslims and scholars who follow the Muslim tradition of Quranic readings. The imposition of Classical Arabic on the Quran is what led to the mismatch between the pronunciation and the text, which means the Quran was originally written phonetically in Old Hijazi.
