Laylat al-Qadr, often translated as the Night of Power or Night of Decree, is considered one of the holiest nights in Islam. It is believed to occur within the last ten nights of the Islamic month of Ramadan. The exact date is not known, but it is commonly believed to occur on one of the odd-numbered nights, such as the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, or 29th night of Ramadan.
While the specific practices may vary among different Muslim communities, the importance of Laylat al-Qadr is universally recognized, and believers strive to make the most of this blessed night.

Laylat al-Qadr holds immense importance in Islam due to its association with the revelation of the Quran, the holy book of Islam, on this blessed night. Muslims believe it to be a night of unparalleled spiritual significance, described in the Quran as “better than a thousand months.” This emphasis underscores the extraordinary value of Laylat al-Qadr, during which believers engage in heightened acts of worship, including prayers, recitation of the Quran, and supplications.
