The prayer of that period is called الضُّحَى.

Same as حَزِنَ لَهُ according to the S and L and CK; or same as حَدِبَ لَهُ according to the O and some copies of the K — but this last seems to be a mistranscription, since one says حَدِبَ عَلَيْهِ, not حَدِبَ لَهُ.

Core sense — the ninth of the Arabian monthsgenerated

1the ninth of the Arabian months—رَمَضَانُ

This word is used alone as well, though some of the learned disapproved of it; it occurs in a tradition and in poetry. But الرَّمَضَانُ is not used, for it is incorrect.

So called because, when they changed the names of the months from the ancient language, they named them according to the seasons in which they fell, and this month — or نَاتِقٌ, for this was its ancient name — agreed with the days of violent heat; see زَمَنٌ.

Or from رَمِضٌ, said of a man fasting, explained above; or because its effect is as though it burned away sins, from رَمَضَهُ الحَرُّ, explained above; but SM says he does not know how that is, having seen no one except F mention it.

The plural is رَمَضَانَاتٌ, أَرْمِضَآءُ, أَرْمِضَةٌ, رَمَضَانُونَ, and رَمَاضِينُ (Yoo), like شَعَابِينُ. Some of the lexicologists assert that أَرْمُضٌ, which is irregular, is another plural, but this is not well established or accepted.

It is said in a tradition that رَمَضَانُ is one of the names of God; but El-Beyhakee pronounces this tradition to be of weak authority, and clearly it is so, since no learned man has transmitted the word as such — except Mujáhid.

It is related that Mujáhid disapproved of forming a plural from it, saying: I have been told that it is one of the names of God.
