Zayd ibn Thabit composed the Quran in the order of verses told by Prophet Muhammed. Secondly, he re-wrote it at the urge of Caliph Abu Bakr. And, finally, he re-compiled the Holy book in its present form when Uthman was the Caliph (3rd). At the time when Prophet Muhammed was alive, Zayd wrote the verses in the order of the dates. But, the final version was changed to a different order rather than the chronological order of their transmission. The final version was arranged in the order of each topic. I mean the verses of one single topic were arranged sequentially one after another although there were verses on other topics in between many of these verses. This is what Wikipedia says:

“During the time of Uthman
, by which time Islam had spread far and wide, differences in reading the Quran in different dialects of Arabic language became obvious. A group of companions, headed by Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman
, who was then stationed in Iraq

, came to Uthman and urged him to "save the Muslim ummah before they differ about the Quran".

“Uthman obtained the manuscript of the Quran from Hafsah
and again summoned the leading authority, Zayd ibn Thabit, and some other companions to make copies of it.
Zayd was put in charge of the task. The style of Arabic dialect used was that of the Quraish

tribe. Hence this style was emphasized over all others”.

“Zaid and other Companions prepared five copies. One of these was sent to every Muslim province with the order that all other Quranic materials, whether fragmentary or complete copies, be burnt. When standard copies were made and were widely available to the Muslim community everywhere, then all other material was burnt voluntarily by Muslim communities themselves. This was important in order to eliminate variations or differences in the dialect from the standard text of the Quran. The Caliph
Uthman kept a copy for himself and returned the original manuscript to Hafsah
