The Night of Decree: A Special Time

Allah sent down the Quran on a special night called Laylat al-Qadr (the Night of Decree) during the month of Ramadan. This night is very blessed and important.

First, the whole Quran was sent down from a special place in heaven to a lower heaven. Then, it was sent down piece by piece to Prophet Muhammad over 23 years.

Prophet Muhammad said that the Night of Decree happens on one of the last 10 nights of Ramadan (either the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, or 29th). During these nights, he and his friends would stay in the mosque, pray, and recite the Quran, waiting for this special night.

On this night, angels come down to earth with blessings and mercy. Some scholars believe that on this night, Allah decides important things like who will live and die, and how much food people will have.

Prophet Muhammad said that this night is better than 1,000 months, and whoever misses its blessings has truly missed out. He also said that if you pray on this night with faith, Allah will forgive your past sins. And on this night, Satan can’t do any harm until dawn, so there is peace.

Allah is highlighting how special and important the Quran is. He sent it down on the Night of Decree, a night that is full of blessings and mercy.

This night is called Laylat al-Qadr because of its high status and importance. On this night, Allah decides what will happen in the coming year, like who will live and die, and how much food people will have.

Allah is saying that the Night of Decree is incredibly significant and important. It’s better than 1,000 months! Doing good deeds on this night is like doing good deeds for 1,000 months.

On this night, angels and the Spirit (Jibreel) come down from Allah with blessings and decrees. It’s a night of peace and goodness that starts at sunset and ends at dawn.

The Prophet Muhammad used to spend a lot of time worshipping and praying during the last 10 nights of Ramadan, hoping to catch the Night of Decree. He knew it was a special time when good deeds would be rewarded greatly.
