The Moment of Lailatul Qadar 2025: Make Sure Not to Miss the Odd Nights This Year

Kapanlagi.com - As the end of Ramadan 1446 H approaches, Muslims around the world are eagerly anticipating the last nights full of blessings, especially the night known as Lailatul Qadar. This special night is believed to be more valuable than a thousand months and comes only once a year, but its exact timing remains a mystery in the hands of Allah SWT.

Scholars indicate that Lailatul Qadar is most likely to occur on the odd nights of the last ten nights of Ramadan. With the 21st night already passed, there are now three precious odd nights left to fill with worship: the 25th, 27th, and 29th nights. This is a golden opportunity, as anyone who misses it could lose rewards equivalent to more than 83 years of worship!

This year, many predict that Lailatul Qadar will fall on the 23rd night of Ramadan, specifically on the night of Saturday to Sunday, March 22, 2025. However, since its timing is a divine secret, it is very important to maximize worship throughout all the odd nights during these last ten days. Here is the information, summarized by Kapanlagi.com on Wednesday (26/3).

1. When is the Likely Night of Lailatul Qadar in 2025?

Referring to the classical method formulated by Imam Ghazali, we can estimate the occurrence of the Night of Lailatul Qadar based on the first day of Ramadan, which in 2025 will begin on Saturday. According to this principle, the Night of Lailatul Qadar is estimated to fall on the 23rd night of Ramadan, specifically on Saturday night, March 22, 2025.

However, do not just focus on this prediction, as many scholars also highlight the 27th night as the most potential time, and even the 29th night is considered a night that should not be missed, especially if certain signs start to appear.

While this prediction provides guidance, Islam teaches us that the certainty of the Night of Lailatul Qadar remains a mystery, so Muslims are encouraged to worship earnestly on every odd night during the last ten nights of Ramadan, without solely relying on estimates.

2. What Are the Signs of the Arrival of the Night of Lailatul Qadar?

The Night of Lailatul Qadar is a special night in Islam. Therefore, the occurrence of this moment will be marked by several conditions, namely:

• The emergence of a feeling of tranquility, peace, and boundless blessings that can be felt by a sincere heart in worship and a soul that is humble in remembrance.
• The atmosphere of the night is neither too hot nor too cold, creating a different ambiance from usual nights even though the weather may feel normal.
• The condition of the sun the next morning rising with soft and non-blinding light, as a symbol that the previous night was a night full of serenity and enveloped by the presence of angels in large numbers.

However, Muslims are not advised to rely too much on physical signs alone, as the main goal is to increase worship and have full hope in Allah SWT, not merely to hunt for a specific time.

3. The Night of Lailatul Qadar: The Night the Al-Qur'an Was Revealed

Lailatul Qadar, a night full of blessings and special significance, witnesses the revelation of the Al-Qur'an from Lauhul Mahfuz to the worldly sky in its entirety to Baitul Izzah. This historic moment occurred before the revelation was sent down gradually to the Prophet Muhammad SAW by the angel Gabriel over two decades.

Although some narratives mention the 24th night of Ramadan as the time of the complete revelation, the first verse received by the Prophet actually happened on the 17th night of Ramadan, which is then commemorated as Nuzulul Qur'an by some Muslims.

Thus, we observe that the journey of the revelation of the Al-Qur'an is not a single event, but rather two major phases that complement each other: the complete revelation and the gradual revelation tailored to the needs of the preaching during the time of the Prophet.

4. What Acts of Worship Are Good to Perform on the Night of Lailatul Qadar?

The Night of Lailatul Qadar is the best moment to perform highly valued deeds, and the sharia provides many options for main acts of worship that can be done throughout the night until dawn. Here are the acts of worship:

• The first and most important act of worship is the night prayer or qiyamul lail, which can be complemented with the Tasbih prayer as a form of humility before Allah and to seek forgiveness abundantly in a state of full concentration.
• Other practices include reading the Qur'an in a measured manner, increasing dhikr and istighfar, as well as reciting heartfelt prayers asking Allah to forgive past sins and accept all good deeds.
• Reviving the night can also be done through charity, i'tikaf, and sending blessings upon the Prophet Muhammad SAW, as all of these deeds will be rewarded as if worshipping for 1000 months.

5. Don't Miss the Remaining Odd Nights

In the month of Ramadan 1446 H, Muslims have passed the 21st and 23rd nights, leaving three odd nights full of opportunities to attain Lailatul Qadar: the 25th, 27th, and 29th nights.

The 25th night, which falls on Monday night, March 24, 2025, holds great hope as the time when this blessed night descends, based on various narrations and interpretations.

Meanwhile, the 27th night, which falls on Wednesday night, March 26, 2025, has become a much-anticipated moment, often filled with solemn congregational worship.

Equally important, the 29th night should also be watched for, as many hadiths explain that Lailatul Qadar may occur on the last night as a reward for those who faithfully worship until the end of Ramadan.
