The Significance of the Revelation of the Qur'an Being Linked to the Month of Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Also, returning to the beginning of the linking of the revelation of this great book, which is the Noble Qur'an, with this great month, what is its significance, O Shaykh?

Answer:
Yes, we stated that this indicates the virtue of the month of Ramadan, for Allah singled it out with this great distinction and highlighted it, saying:
The month of Ramadhan [is that] in which was revealed the Qur'anشَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ الَّذِي أُنزِلَ فِيهِ الْقُرْآنُ
[Al-Baqarah 2:185]
The Qur'an is meant to make people understand the importance of this month, and the fact that the Qur'an was revealed to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in it has a great indication of the virtue of this month over others. For this reason, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) increased his recitation of the Qur'an in this month, and Jibril (peace be upon him) would descend to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to review the Qur'an with him every night of Ramadan. This indicates that the Qur'an has a special status in this month, both in terms of its revelation in it and its recitation in it. Yes.
