Chapter on Merit of the Month of Ramadan

اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ اَلْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:» نَزَلَتِ اَلتَّوْرَاةُ فِي سِتٍّ مَضَيْنَ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ نَزَلَ اَلْإِنْجِيلُ فِي اِثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ مَضَتْ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ نَزَلَ اَلزَّبُورُ فِي ثَمَانِي عَشْرَةَ مَضَتْ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ نَزَلَ اَلْفُرْقَانُ» فِي لَيْلَةِ اَلْقَدْرِ««.
Al-Husayn ibn Said, from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad, from Ali, from Abu Basir, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him: Imam عليه السلام said: “The Torah was sent down after ‘six’ had passed from the month of Ramadan, And the Gospel was sent down after ‘twelve’ had passed from the month of Ramadan, And the Psalms were sent down after ‘eighteen’ had passed from the month of Ramadan, And the Furqan (Quran) was sent down ‘on the Night of Decree (Laylat al-Qadr).’”
