حدثنا أحمد بن علي بن إبراهيم، قال: حدثنا أبي، عن أبيه إبراهيم بن هاشم، عن عبد الله بن المغيرة، عن عمر الشامي، عن الصادق جعفر بن محمد (عليهما السلام)، قال: ﴿إِنَّ عِدَّةَ ٱلشُّهُورِ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ ٱثْنَا عَشَرَ شَهْرًۭا فِى كِتَـٰبِ ٱللَّهِ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ﴾ فغرة الشهور شهر الله عز وجل وهو شهر رمضان وقلب شهر رمضان ليلة القدر ونزل القرآن في أول ليلة من شهر رمضان واستقبل الشهر بالقرآن.
Aḥmad b. ʿAlī b. Ibrāhīm narrated to us, saying that his father narrated to him among others, from his father, Ibrāhīm b. Hāshim, from ʿAbd Allāh b. al-Mughīra, from ʿUmar al-Shāmī, from al-Ṣādiq, Jaʿfar b. Muḥammad (as-d), who said: “﴾<em>Indeed, the number of months with Allāh is twelve [lunar] months in the register of Allāh [from] the day He created the heavens and the earth</em>﴿ [9:36], and the foremost of the months is the month of Allāh (azwj), and it is the month of Ramaḍān. And the heart of the month of Ramaḍān is the Night of Power. The Qurʾān was revealed on the first night of the month of Ramaḍān, so begin the month with the Qurʾān.”
