'Lailat ul-Qadr' or 'Night of Power'

The Night of Power in Ramadan : Lailat-ul-Qadr

 

Laylatul Qadr
 (the Night of Power) is described 
in the Quran as,
 "better than a thousand months"

 (97:3). 



Any action done
 on this night such as
 reciting the Quran, 
remembering Allah, etc.
 is better than acting for
 one thousand months
 which do not contain
 the night of Qadr.



" Allah's Messenger used 
to exert himself in devotion 
during the last ten nights to
 a greater extent than 
at any other time." 

(Muslim)



 Allah's peace and blessings 
be upon our beloved Prophet.



Aisha, may Allah 
be pleased with her,
 related that the Prophet said: 



" Look for Laylatul Qadr
 on an odd-numbered night during
 the last ten nights of 
Ramadan."


(Bukhari).



The Prophet said: 


"Whoever prays
 during the night of Qadr 
with faith and hoping for
 its reward will have all 
of his previous sins forgiven." 


(Bukhari and Muslim
 recorded from Abu Hurairah).

Allah said in the

 Qur'an in 

Surah A 1-Baqarah (the Cow):

"Ramadan is the (month)

 in which was sent down

 the Qur'an, as a guide to

 mankind, also clear (signs)

 for guidance and judgment

 (between right and wrong)."

(2:185) 

Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)

 said about Lailatul-Qadr:

 It as narrated by 

Abu Hurayra 

that Prophet said, 

"Anyone 

who stays awake

 for the Night Of Power 

with belief and for the

 pleasure of Allah, 

all his previous sins 

will be forgiven."

(Bukhari and Muslim)
