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 عليهما السلام, who said: “﴾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﴿ [9:36], and the foremost of the months is the month of Allāh عز وجل, 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.”
