The term "Zaboor" holds significant cultural value in the Islamic tradition as it refers to a collection or preservation of the Quranic verses. In early Islamic history, the Quran was preserved in the memory of the scholars and in the form of written manuscripts, but as Islam spread, there was a need to standardize and unify the text. The first known compilation of the Quran into a single book form occurred in the late 7th and early 8th centuries CE, which is known as the Uthmanic codex. Over time, the term "Zaboor" came to refer to this canonical version of the Quran.
