حدثنا أحمد بن محمد بن يحيى العطّار، قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن القاسم بن محمد، عن سليمان بن داود المنقري، عن حفص بن غياث، قال: قلت للصادق جعفر بن محمد (عليه السلام): أخبرني عن قول الله عز وجل: ﴿شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أُنزِلَ فِيهِ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ﴾ كيف أنزل القرآن في شهر رمضان وإنما أنزل القرآن في مدة عشرين سنة أوله وآخره؟ فقال (عليه السلام): أنزل القرآن جملة واحدة في شهر رمضان إلى البيت المعمور، ثم أنزل من البيت المعمور في مدة عشرين سنة.
Aḥmad b. Muḥammad b. Yaḥyā al-ʿAṭṭār narrated to us, saying that Saʿd b. ʿAbd Allāh narrated to him among others, from al-Qāsim b. Muḥammad, from Sulaymān b. Dāwūd al-Munqarī, from Ḥafṣ b. Ghiyāth, who narrated: “I once said to al-Ṣādiq, Jaʿfar b. Muḥammad (as): “Inform me about the saying of Allāh (azwj): ﴾<em>The month of Ramaḍān is that in which was revealed the Qurʾān</em>﴿ [2:185]—how was the Qurʾān revealed in the month of Ramaḍān, considering that the Qurʾān was revealed, from beginning to end, over the course of twenty years?” He (as) replied: “The Qurʾān was revealed in the month of Ramaḍān, in the <em>Bayt al-Maʿmūr</em>—the Inhabited Dwelling—in a single instance, and then it was revealed from the Inhabited Dwelling (to the public) over the course of twenty years.”
