أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ، أَخْبَرَنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، حدثنا أَبُو مسلم إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، حدثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ رَجَاءٍ، حدثنا عِمْرَانُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمَلِيحِ، عَنْ وَاثِلَةَ
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ: " أُنْزِلَتْ صُحُفُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَوَّلَ لَيْلَةٍ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ، وَأُنْزِلَتِ التَّوْرَاةُ لِسِتٍّ مَضَيْنَ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ، وَأُنْزِلَ الْإِنْجِيلُ لِثَلَاثَ عَشْرَةَ خَلَتْ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ، وَأُنْزِلَ الزَّبُورُ لِثَمَانِي عَشْرَةَ خَلَتْ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ وَأُنْزِلَ الْقُرْآنُ لِأَرْبَعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ مَضَتْ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ " قَالَ الْحَلِيمِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: " يُرِيدُ بِهِ لَيْلَةَ خَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ " قَالَ الْبَيْهَقِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ رُوِّينَا عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: " أُنْزِلَ الْقُرْآنُ جُمْلَةً وَاحِدَةً إِلَى سَمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ، ثُمَّ نُزِّلَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فِي عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً " {وَقُرْآنًا فَرَقْنَاهُ لِتَقْرَأَهُ عَلَى النَّاسِ عَلَى مُكْثٍ وَنَزَّلْنَاهُ تَنْزِيلًا} [الإسراء: 106]

That the Prophet ﷺ said: "The Scrolls of Ibrāhīm were sent down on the first night of the month of Ramadān, the Torah was sent down when six nights of Ramadān had passed, the Gospel was sent down when thirteen had passed of the month of Ramadān, the Psalms were sent down when eighteen had passed of Ramadān, and the Qur'an was sent down when twenty-four had passed of Ramadān." Al-Ḥalīmī, may God have mercy on him, said: "By this he means the night of the twenty-fifth." Al-Bayhaqī, may God have mercy on him, said: We have narrated from ʿIkrimah, from Ibn ʿAbbās, that he said: "The Qur'an was sent down all at once to the lowest heaven on the Night of Power, and after that it was sent down over twenty years." {وَقُرْآنًا فَرَقْنَاهُ لِتَقْرَأَهُ عَلَى النَّاسِ عَلَى مُكْثٍ وَنَزَّلْنَاهُ تَنْزِيلًا} [al-Isrāʾ: 106]
