Maa shaa Allah
The first revelation of the Qur’an was sent down:
📅 On the Night of Laylat al-Qadr (The Night of Power),
📆 During the month of Ramadan,
📍 In the Cave of Ḥirā’ (جبل حراء‎), near Makkah,
🕊️ To Prophet Muhammad ﷺ when he was 40 years old.

📖 First Verses Revealed:
The first verses revealed were from Surah Al-‘Alaq (Chapter 96: 1–5):
اِقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ
خَلَقَ الْإِنسَانَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ
اِقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ الْأَكْرَمُ
الَّذِي عَلَّمَ بِالْقَلَمِ
عَلَّمَ الْإِنسَانَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ

Read in the Name of your Lord Who created.
He created man from a clot of blood.
Read, and your Lord is the Most Generous—
Who taught by the pen—
Taught man what he did not know.” (Qur’an 96:1–5)
🕌 This event marks the beginning of the Qur’anic revelation and the mission of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ as the final Messenger of Allah.
🕋 Laylat al-Qadr is now honored every year in the last 10 nights of Ramadan — most commonly believed to be on the 27th night.
