Chapter 1 · Revelationكَيْفَ كَانَ بَدْءُ الْوَحْىِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
How the revelation to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ began
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَجْوَدَ النَّاسِ، وَكَانَ أَجْوَدُ مَا يَكُونُ فِي رَمَضَانَ حِينَ يَلْقَاهُ جِبْرِيلُ، وَكَانَ يَلْقَاهُ فِي كُلِّ لَيْلَةٍ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ فَيُدَارِسُهُ الْقُرْآنَ، فَلَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَجْوَدُ بِالْخَيْرِ مِنَ الرِّيحِ الْمُرْسَلَةِ.

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ، وَمَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، نَحْوَهُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ
Translation
Ibn Abbas reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was the most generous of people, and he was most generous in Ramadan when Jibril (Gabriel) met him. He used to meet him every night of Ramadan and study the Qur'an with him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was truly more generous in doing good than the wind that is sent forth.

Ibn Abbas berichtete: Der Gesandte Allahs ﷺ war der freigebigste der Menschen, und am freigebigsten war er im Ramadan, wenn Dschibril (Gabriel) ihn traf. Er traf ihn in jeder Nacht des Ramadan und studierte mit ihm den Koran. Der Gesandte Allahs ﷺ war wahrlich freigebiger mit dem Guten als der ausgesandte Wind.
Türkçe
İbn Abbâs (r.a.) şöyle rivayet etti: Resûlullah ﷺ insanların en cömerdiydi. En cömert olduğu zaman da Cebrâil'in kendisiyle buluştuğu Ramazan'dı. Cebrâil onunla Ramazan'ın her gecesinde buluşur ve onunla Kur'ân'ı karşılıklı okurdu. Resûlullah ﷺ hayır konusunda gönderilmiş rüzgârdan daha cömertti.
