Its virtue: The night of qadr is the most virtuous night of the year. Allah says in the Qur’an: “We revealed it on the night of power [that is, qadr
What will tell you what the night of power is? It is better than a thousand months” (97:1-3). Any action, for example, reciting the Qur’an, making remembrance of Allah, and so on, on the night of qadr is better than the same act performed for one thousand months.
When is it preferred to seek this night?
It is preferred to seek this night during the last ten nights of Ramadan, as the Prophet, upon whom be peace, strove his best in seeking it during that time. We have already mentioned that the Prophet would stay up during the last ten nights, would wake his wives, and then would remain apart from them to worship.
Which night is it? :
Scholars hold different opinions as to the exact night that is the night of qadr. Some hold the opinion that it is the 21st, some say the 23rd, others say the 25th and still others say it is the 29th. Some say that it varies from year to year but it is always among the last ten nights of Ramadan. Most scholars, though, vouch for the 27th.
Ahmad recorded, with a sahih chain, from Ibn ‘Umar that the Prophet said: “He who likes to seek that night should do so on the 27th.” Ubayy ibn K’ab said: “By Allah, and there is no God but Him, it is during Ramadan – and He swore to that – and by Allah, I know what night it is. It is the night of the 27th. Its sign is that the sun rises in the morning white and without any rays”. This is related by Muslim, Abu Dawud, Ahmad, and by at-Tirmidhi who called it sahih.
Praying and making supplications during the night of qadr: Al-Bukhari and Muslim record from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet, upon whom be peace, said: “Whoever prays during the night of qadr with faith and hoping for its reward will have all of his previous sins forgiven”.
As to the supplication during the night of qadr, ‘Aisha said: “ I asked the Messenger of Allah: ‘ O Messenger of Allah, if I know what night is the night of qadr, what should I say during it’? He said: “Say: O Allah, You are pardoning and You love to pardon, so pardon me.” This is related by Ahmed,Ibn Majah, and by at-Tirmidhi, who called it sahih
