سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ شَهْرُ رَمَضانَ الَّذِي أُنْزِلَ فِيهِ الْقُرْآنُ وَ إِنَّمَا أُنْزِلَ فِي عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً بَيْنَ أَوَّلِهِ وَ آخِرِهِ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) نَزَلَ الْقُرْآنُ جُمْلَةً وَاحِدَةً فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ الْمَعْمُورِ ثُمَّ نَزَلَ فِي طُولِ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً ثُمَّ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) نَزَلَتْ صُحُفُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ فِي أَوَّلِ لَيْلَةٍ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ أُنْزِلَتِ التَّوْرَاةُ لِسِتٍّ مَضَيْنَ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ أُنْزِلَ الْإِنْجِيلُ لِثَلَاثَ عَشْرَةَ لَيْلَةً خَلَتْ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ أُنْزِلَ الزَّبُورُ لِثَمَانَ عَشَرَ خَلَوْنَ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ أُنْزِلَ الْقُرْآنُ فِي ثَلَاثٍ وَ عِشْرِينَ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, and Muhammad Bin Al Qasim, from Muhammad Bin Suleyman, from Dawood, from Hafs Bin Giyas, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup> about the Words of Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:2#h185"><a href="/books/quran:2#h185">[2:185]</a></a> The Month of Ramazan is that in which the Quran was Revealed</span>, but rather it was Revealed during twenty years between its first and its last’. So Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The Quran was Revealed as a whole in one go during the Month of Ramazan to the Frequented House (البيت المعمور), and then it was Revealed in length over twenty years’. Then he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The Prophet<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘The Parchment of Ibrahim<sup>as</sup> was Revealed during the first night from the Month of Ramazan, and the Torah was Revealed when two (days) had not lapsed from the Month of Ramazan, and the Evangel, when thirteen nights from the Month of Ramazan, and the Psalms was Revealed on the eighteenth from the Month of Ramazan, and the Quran was Revealed during the twenty-third from the Month of Ramazan’.
