Lailat-ul-Qadr » The night of Power
In this night (27th of Ramadan), the Holy Quran was sent down from LOH-E-MEHFOOZ (the Preserved Tablet) to the earth. Messenger of ALLAH Sallal Laahu Ta'ala Alayhi Wa Sallam told us to search for Shab-e-Qadr in the odd numbered nights, in the last ten days of Ramzan.
So, the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th or 29th night of Ramadan could be Shab-e-Qadr.
Hazrat Aisha Radiallah Anha stated that Rasool Allah Sallal Laahu Ta'ala Alayhi Wa Sallam said, "Look for Lailat-Ul-Qadr in the odd nights of the last ten days of Ramadhan." (Bukhari)
Hazrat Aisha Radiallah Anha stated that I asked Rasool Allah Sallal Laahu Ta'ala Alayhi Wa Sallam "If I find Lailatul Qadar then what should I do? HE peace be upon him said, recite this Dua."ALLAH HUMMA INNAKA A’FUVUN TOHIB BUL AFVA FA’AFU ANNI" (Tirmidhi)
Dear Brothers and Sisters, please take advantage of this night, from sunset till sunrise. Offer nawafil (prayers), recite QUR'AAN, do repent (Istaghfar), and Pray for pardon, recite many many Salawat (Darood Sharif & Salaam) and make benediction (Dua'as).
Special DU’AA of Lailatul QADR:
"ALLAH HUMMA INNAKA A’FUVUN TOHIB BUL AFVA FA’AFU ANNI"
(Tirmidhi)
"O Allah! You are the Forgiver and You like forgiving so forgive me”
Ummul Momineen Sayyidina Aaisha (Radiyallahu anha)
reported that she asked
Allah's Messenger (sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam),
"O Messenger of Allah!
(sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam),
If I knew which night is Laylat ul-Qadr,
what should I say during it?"
Holy Prophet (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam)
advised her to recite:
"Allahumma innaka `afuwwun
tuh.ibbul `afwa
fa`fu `annee "
O Allah! You are forgiving,
and you love forgiveness. So forgive me.
[Recorded by Ahmad, Ibn Majah, and at-Tirmithi.]
Abu Hurayrah Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu narrated
that the Prophet Sallal Laahu Ta'ala Alayhi Wa Sallam said:
"Whoever stands (in Qiyam) in Laylatul-Qadr
(and it is facilitated for him)
out of faith and expectation of Allah's reward,
will have all of his previous sins forgiven."
(Reported by Al-Bukhari and Muslim).
