I had recently came across this narration from Abu Ubayd Al-Qasims Fadail Al-Quran, hadith 468 : > حدثنا أبو عبيد قال : حدثنا حجاج ، عن هارون بن موسى ، قال : أخبرني > الزبير بن الخريت ، عن عكرمة ، قال : لما كتبت المصاحف عرضت على عثمان ، > فوجد فيها حروفا من اللحن ، فقال : « لا تغيروها فإن العرب ستغيرها ، أو > قال : ستعربها بألسنتها ، لو كان الكاتب من ثقيف ، والمملي من هذيل لم > توجد فيه هذه الحروف » > > Abu Ubaid Ikrimah: When the Musahif was written, it was presented to Uthman. He > found some errors and said “do not change them for the Arabs will soon > change them”. Or he said: “They will correctly pronounce them via > their tongues. Had the scribe been from the tribe of Thaqif, and the > one who dictates it from the tribe of Hudhayl, these letters would not > be found in it”. Can someone please explain the context he said this in.
