Virtues Of Ramadan: #3


#3: Laylat al-Qadr Repeats Once Every Year; in Ramadan


The fact that the Qur’an was sent down from the Lawḥ al-Maḥfūẓ to the first heaven in Ramadan is a blessing on its own for us. The nature of Laylatul Qadr being in Ramadan itself is another blessing for us. Sending down the Qur’an has taken place. Done. But Laylatul Qadr repeats every other Ramadan. This makes the month of Ramadan more virtuous, and the blessings upon us more abundant. Alhamdulillah!

In Sūrah al-Qadr, 97:1-5, Allah says in description of Laylatul-Qadr:

“Verily, We have sent it (this Qur’an) down in the Night of Al-Qadr (Decree). And what will make you know what the Night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is? The Night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is better than a thousand months. Therein descend the angels and the Rūḥ [Jibrīl] by Allah’s Permission with all Decrees. (All that night), there is peace (and goodness from Allh to His believing slaves) until the appearance of dawn.”

This means, if you coincide with the night of decree, the blessings you attain is better than (not equal to) the blessings you attain from the deeds of 83 years and 4 months. In other words, worshipping Allah in this night is better than worshipping Him a thousand months.

An Overview of Laytal al-Qadr

Laylat al-Qadr   variously rendered in English as the Night of Decree, Night of Power, Night of Value, Night of Destiny, or Night of Measures, is, in Islamic belief, the night when the first verses of the Quran were revealed to the Islamic prophet Muhammad.[5] It is one of the nights of the last ten days of Ramadan. Muslims believe that on this night the blessings and mercy of God are abundant, sins are forgiven, supplications are accepted, and that the annual decree is revealed to the angels who also descend to earth, specially the Angel Gabriel, referred to as "the Spirit", to perform every and any errand decreed by God. Islam holds that God Almighty alone answers our supplications and that He alone receives them and forgives humanity and gives them what they ask for and that on this particular night Muslims should actively seek God's forgiveness and engage in various acts of worship.
