This study uses comparative analysis to examine the narrative and theological debates surrounding Mu’āwiyah's personality, the prophet Mohammad's hadiths describing him, and the possibility of him writing down the revelation of the Qur’an. Using traditional and authentic Sunni sources in the fields of history, theology, and exegesis, the article has attempted to examine the possibility of Mu’āwiyah writing down the revelation of the Qur’an, which is raised in the book Mu’āwiyah from Arabia to Empire,written by Stephen Humphrey through comparing it with the words of the prophet Mohammad and Sunni elders.This article, by analyzing historical narratives and the actions that Mu’āwiyah committed, argues that in view of the hadiths and signs that were quoted by the Prophet of Islam Mohammad (peace be upon him) in the Sunni sources regarding Mu’āwiyah's ideological and personal deviation;As well as the behavioral deviations and actions of Mu’āwiyah, which Sunni scholars have interpreted as Mu’āwiyah's renegadeness, we ultimately come to the conclusion that it is much more reasonable to reject Mu’āwiyah's writing down of revelation than to reject the Prophet's hadiths or to deny many of the historical facts and facts related to Mu’āwiyah's actions.
