The Night of Lailatul Qadar, described in Surah Al-Qadr verse 3 as a night that is better than a thousand months, offers a golden opportunity for Muslims to attain rewards for worship equivalent to more than 83 years!

On this blessed night, the Qur'an was first revealed to the Prophet Muhammad SAW, making it a night that is radiant and full of guidance.

Moreover, Surah Al-Qadr verse 4 also reveals the presence of angels and Jibril descending with mercy and decrees from Allah. For those who enliven this night with full faith and hope for rewards, Allah promises total forgiveness for past sins.

Every act of worship, from prayer, dhikr, reading the Qur'an, to a smile and any small charity, will have its rewards multiplied without limit, providing an extraordinary opportunity to draw closer to the Creator.

3. Recommended Prayer to Recite on the Night of Lailatul Qadar

The Night of Lailatul Qadar, a moment filled with blessings and special significance, is the perfect time to raise a prayer highly recommended by the Prophet Muhammad SAW: "O Allah, indeed You are Most Forgiving and love forgiveness, so forgive me."

In a state of humility, we can also add the attribute "Karim" (Most Generous), as a reminder of the vastness of Allah's mercy.

Let us repeat this prayer wholeheartedly, while including personal requests, such as forgiveness, abundance of sustenance, safety in this world and the hereafter, and guidance for our family.

An golden opportunity to draw closer to Him and attain all the goodness that is hoped for.

4. Practices Recommended to Perform on the Night of Lailatul Qadar

The Night of Lailatul Qadar is a special moment full of blessings, and there are several practices we can do to bring it to life with meaning.

First, perform Qiyamul Lail, whether alone or in congregation, with at least two rak'ahs of tahajud prayer ending with witir, while savoring every movement and recitation with humility.

Next, read the Al-Qur'an and reflect on its meanings, so that we can delve into the great messages of Allah on this glorious night.

Don't forget to increase your dhikr and istighfar, utter tasbih, tahmid, tahlil, and takbir as expressions of servitude and remorse for all sins.

Additionally, give charity and spread goodness, whether by providing food, helping neighbors, or donating to orphans and the needy, as every good deed on this night will be multiplied in reward.

If possible, also perform i'tikaf in the mosque, even if only for a short time, so that we can focus on worship without worldly distractions.

5. When Does the Night of Lailatul Qadar Take Place?

Lailatul Qadar, a night full of blessings and secrets, does not have a specific date revealed by the Prophet Muhammad (SAW), but it is believed to occur during the last ten nights of the month of Ramadan.

The odd nights, such as the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, and 29th nights, are the main focus as the most potential times to attain this special night.

A sign often mentioned as an indication of its presence is when the sun rises the next day, and its light appears pale and soft, not dazzling.

The existence of this night is shrouded in mystery, serving as a test of sincerity for Muslims to diligently worship and not just wait for one special night.
