Imam Ali (AS) said, No verse [of the Quran] was revealed but that I knew the occasion of its revelation and where it was revealed, [whether] in daytime or night, on a mountain or a plain; and my Lord has gifted me with an intelligent heart and an eloquent tongue.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : ما نَزَلَتْ آيَةٌ إلاّ وَقَدْ عَلِمْتُ فيما نَزَلَتْ وَ أيْنَ نَزَلَتْ في نَهار أوْ لَيْل في جَبَل أوْ سَهْل وَ إنَّ رَبِّي وَهَبَ لِي قَلْباً عَقُولاً وَ لِساناً قَؤُولاً
