Summary
The two statements do not contradict each other, because the Quran was revealed in three stages according to Sheikh Abdul Azim al-Zarqani. The all-at-once revelation happened twice, first to the Preserved Tablet and then from the Preserved Tablet to Bait al-Izzah in the lowest heaven on the night of Lailatul Qadr. The gradual revelation took place from the lowest heaven to the Prophet SAW through the angel Jibril AS, from the first revelation until the last.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Kenyataan bahawa al-Quran turun secara berperingkat-peringkat atau sekaligus sebenarnya bukanlah bertentangan di antara satu sama lain.
