Laylat al Qadr has appeared on the last five odd nights in the holy month of Ramadan (21st-23, 25 - 27 - 30).

The Night of Power

Ramadan , the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, is highly revered and serves as a time of deep spiritual reflection.

Laylat al Qadr is believed to fall on one of the odd nights during the last 10 nights of Ramadan, and Muslims are encouraged to spend this night in worship and reflection. It is said that on this night, the gates of heaven are open, and the blessings of Allah are abundant. Muslims believe that any good deeds performed on Laylat al Qadr are multiplied and that it is a night of forgiveness and spiritual renewal.

To observe Laylat al Qadr, Muslims often spend the night in prayer, recitation of the Quran, and supplication. Many mosques hold special prayers and programs throughout the night, and some Muslims choose to spend the night in seclusion, engaging in individual worship and reflection.

When is it Laylat al Qadr?

The exact date of Laylat al Qadr is not known, but Muslims are encouraged to seek out the night of power during the last 10 days of Ramadan. It is believed that the night of Laylat al Qadr is better than a thousand months, and any good deeds performed on this night are considered equivalent to the deeds performed over a thousand months.

According to Islamic belief, it was during one of the off-numbered nights in the last days of Ramadan when the Quran (Islam's holiest text) was first revealed to the prophet Muhammad. The exact day of the night is not officially known but many Muslims believe the 'Night of Qadr' comes with an abundance of mercy from Allah (God).

Muslims also believe that Laylat al Qadr is a night of destiny and that the angels descend to the earth to bring blessing and to record the deeds of humans. It is therefore a time for increased devotion and reflection, as Muslims seek to make the most of this blessed night and to gain the forgiveness of Allah.
