Laylatul Qadr (Night of Decree)

From the Quran. 

بِّسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ إِنَّآ أَنزَلْنَـٰهُ فِى لَيْلَةِ ٱلْقَدْرِ

Verily, We have sent it (this Qur’ân) down in the night of Al-Qadr (Decree).

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا لَيْلَةُ ٱلْقَدْرِ

And what will make you know what the night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is?

لَيْلَةُ ٱلْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ   

The night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is better than a thousand months (i.e. worshipping Allâh in that night is better than worshipping Him a thousand months, i.e. 83 years and 4 months).

تَنَزَّلُ ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ وَٱلرُّوحُ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِم مِّن كُلِّ أَمْرٍ   

Therein descend the angels and the Rûh [Jibrîl (Gabrîl)] by Allâh’s Permission with all Decrees,

سَلَـٰمٌ هِىَ حَتَّىٰ مَطْلَعِ ٱلْفَجْرِ   

(All that night), there is Peace (and Goodness from Allâh to His believing slaves) until the appearance of dawn.

Quran Surah Al- Qadr 97: 1-5.

Hadith: Arabic Text followed by English Translation. 

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ

تَحَرَّوْا لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ فِي الْوِتْرِ مِنَ الْعَشْرِ الأَوَاخِرِ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ

رواه البخاري (2017)،

It was narrated from ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) that Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said,:

Search for the Night of Qadr in the odd nights of the last ten days of Ramadan.
