Talk:21 Ramadan

Untitled[edit]

I asked Irishpunktom why he added the disputed tag and he replied on my talk page with:

Hey, The reason I added the {{disputed}} is because I've always understood that all muslims believe that the first revealaton occoured on the 27th of Ramadan, or the Laylat al-Qadr. But i'm not 100% on this. --Irishpunktom\^talk 09:36, 29 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'm just posting it here so people can see why the page is disputed. Evil Monkey∴Hello 20:16, 6 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The exact date of Laylat al-Qadr is disputed by Shia and Sunni scholars. There are differing reports even within one particular Islamic sect. Adamcaliph 17:31, 11 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

This article should be merged with the main article on Lailatul Qadr, as there is nothing further to expand upon and it is too short to stand alone. Regarding the dispute, I was also of the opinion (as I was taught) that the Quran was revealed on Laylatul Qadr (whose exact date is unknown), rather than specifically on the 21st.

I agree with the above comment as it is not known for sure the exact date the Quran was first revealed and any mention is pure speculation. Also, the Gregorian date used in the article seems to be incorrect following a quick conversion using multiple convertors via a google search. August 10, 610 apparently coresponds to Ramadan 15, 13 B.H, which would make August 16, to be Ramadan 21. Nonetheless, it should be noted that the date may be off by a day in either direction.
