The Mesenger of Allaah had gone to meditate and think about the lifestyle of his people, when Angel Jibril (Gabriel) appeared to him and told the Messenger of Islam to read the first five verses of Suuratul Alaq.


Secondly, the instructions by Allaah by making the Ramadan fasting compulsory on Muslims is contained in the Glorious Qur'an from verses 183 to 187 of Suuratul Baqara (chapter 2) of the Book of Allaah.
