The Quran was first found out during the month of Ramadan, the 9th month of the Islamic Lunar Calendar. This blessed month is thought through by many Muslims these days because of the month of Fasting. However, long earlier than fasting has become incumbent, it become known by using the earliest partners because of the month of the Quran.
We revealed [the Quran] during the Night of Decree. And what can make you know what is the Night of Decree? The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months. The angels and the Spirit descend therein by permission of their Lord for every matter. Peace it is until the emergence of dawn.” [97:1-5]
Laylat-al-qadr
The significance of this night is fairly emphasized in both Quran and hadith. Now not handiest is it known as a blessed nighttime in Surah al-Dukhan, but an entire bankruptcy of the Quran, Surah al-Qadr, is devoted to it. The night time of Decree is described to be full of distinctive features, better than 1000 months, and is called the night time on which angels descend the earth – along with the angel of revelation, Jibreel himself. Laylat-al-qadr is deemed as a substantial opportunity, as believers who spend the night in remembrance and prayer can be rewarded in abundance ways extra than on any regular night time. This nighttime is visible as a blessing and mercy from Allah. In step with narration, considered one of its virtues is that spending this night in prayer out of religion and sincerity will result in all beyond sins being forgiven.
The nighttime power of Allah occurs in the month of Ramadan. It is also called the night time of Decree as it’s far said that on this night the decrees or destinies for the upcoming 12 months are sent down:
“On that night is made distinct every precise matter – Every matter [proceeding] from Us. Indeed, We were to send [a messenger] as a mercy from your Lord. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing.” [44:4-6]
What is Laylat-al-qadar
Qadar refers to the four beliefs
- Allah knows everything about everything.
- Everything from the beginning to eternity is within His knowledge.
- Fifty thousand years before the creation of the universe, Allah determined everything that will happen in Laohe Mahfuz.
- Whatever happens, good or bad, happens because of His will.
- Nothing can happen outside of His will.
Everything that exists is created by Allah. - Allah creates all the features and actions of all creations.
Belief in Qadr means that no one’s will or action is outside the will of Allah. Allah has given man the will and ability to act. He gave man the ability to distinguish between good and evil. At the same time, man cannot will anything, unless Allah wills it.
So, everything that will happen in the life of Rasoolullah and all of us, has been predestined by Allah. During the lifetime of the Prophet, the Arabs of that time would commit various wrongdoings and the verses would be revealed in that context—this is also preordained. Who, when, and what will do wrong — is also predetermined. All the events of creation in Laohe Mahfuj are pre-ordained long before creation.
Who can tell you what this great night is?
Night of Qadr Any of the last ten nights of Ramadan, or any of the last ten odd nights. Let’s see what’s the benefit of not specifying it. Those who consider Qadr to be a specific night of Ramadan, worship more ‘hujug’ on that night. But on other days it is loose. On other nights they are seen performing outrageous events, entertainment, and relatively little worship. By praying one night long, he is sure that he has won the reward of a thousand nights.
