At first, at the time of the Prophet Muhammad, the problems regarding the Qur’an were not significant because the Apostle was still alive. However, after the death of the Prophet Muhammad, there were many events that prompted the need to rewrite the Qur’anic manuscripts, so the peak was after the Yamamah war which resulted in many Huffadh Qur’ans being martyred on the battlefield. So this is where the main role of Umar bin Khattab r.a begins, from proposing that the writing of the Qur’anic manuscripts needs to be done again, after it has been rewritten and recorded, it needs to be maintained and disseminated.
