حدثنا أبي رضي الله عنه، قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن محمد بن الحسين بن أبي الخطّاب، عن محمد بن عبد الله بن مهران، عن صالح بن عقبة، عن المفضّل بن عمر، قال: ذكر أبو عبد الله الصادق (عليه السلام) إنا أنزلناه فقال: من أبين فضلها على السور، قال: قلت: وأي شئ أفضلها، قال: نزلت ولاية أمير المؤمنين (عليه السلام) فيها، قلت: في ليلة القدر التي نرتجيها من رمضان، قال: هي ليلة قدرت السماوات والأرض فيها.
My father (ra) narrated to us, saying that Saʿd b. ʿAbd Allāh narrated to him among others, from Muḥammad b. al-Ḥusayn b. Abī’l-Khaṭṭāb, from Muḥammad b. ʿAbd Allāh b. Mihrān, from Ṣāliḥ b. ʿUqba, from al-Mufaḍḍal b. ʿUmar, who said: “Abū ʿAbd Allāh al-Ṣādiq (as) mentioned the chapter of ﴾<em>Indeed, We sent it down</em>﴿ and then said: “Is there anything (more) to clarify about its superiority in virtue over other chapters?” Al-Mufaḍḍal reports: “I said: “And what is that thing due to which it is superior in virtue?” So he replied: “The guardianship of Amīr al-Muʾminīn (as) was revealed in it.” I retorted: “In the Night of Power which we anticipate in (the month of) Ramaḍān?” He continued: “It is the night in which the heavens and the earth were determined.”
