\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnswer:<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/u>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAllah states in the Quran, “We have sent it down in a blessed night…”<\/em> (Surah Dukhan: 3)<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tAccording to the majority of the commentators, “blessed night”, refers to <\/span><\/span>Layla Tul<\/span><\/span> Qadr (Night of Power on 610 CE) which occurred in the last ten nights of the month of Ramadan. This is further supported by the verse, “We sent it (the Quran) down in the Night of Qadr”.<\/em> (Surah Qadr: 1)<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIt is narrated in a tradition of the Prophet (sallal lahu <\/span><\/span>Alayhi<\/span><\/span> wa <\/span><\/span>Sallam<\/span><\/span>) that all Prophets, since the creation of man till the end, received their respective Books in the month of Ramadan on different dates. Qatadah (<\/span><\/span>radi<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span>Allahu<\/span><\/span> anhu) reports on the authority of Wathilah (<\/span><\/span>radi<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span>Allahu<\/span><\/span> anhu) that the Messenger of Allah said that Ibrahim (<\/span><\/span>alayhis<\/span><\/span> salaam) received his scriptures on 1st<\/sup> Ramadan, Injil was revealed on 18th<\/sup> Ramadan and the Holy Quran was revealed on the night of 24th<\/sup>, that is, on 25th<\/sup> Ramadan. (Qurtubi, Vol 16, P110)<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe statement that the “Quran was revealed in the Night of Power” means that it was revealed in its entirety from the Preserved Tablet to the lowest sky in one night of the month of Ramadan. However, it was revealed to the Prophet (sallal lahu <\/span><\/span>Alayhi<\/span><\/span> wa <\/span><\/span>Sallam<\/span><\/span>) gradually over a period of <\/span><\/span>twenty-three<\/span><\/span> years. Some scholars have expressed the opinion that the instalment of the Quran that was destined to be revealed in a given year used to be sent down on the Night of Power from the Preserved Tablet to the lowest sky of the Earth. (Qurtubi, Vol 16, P110)<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
