أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ عَنْ دَاوُدَ وَهُوَ ابْنُ أَبِي هِنْدَ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ
«نَزَلَ الْقُرْآنُ فِي رَمَضَانَ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ فَكَانَ فِي السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا فَكَانَ إِذَا أَرَادَ اللهُ أَنْ يُحْدِثَ شَيْئًا نَزَّلَ فَكَانَ بَيْنَ أَوَّلِهِ وَآخِرِهِ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً»
