LaylatulQadr is a holy night that occurs during Ramadan where worship is greatly rewarded. It is said to be better than 1000 months or over 83 years of worship. Signs of this night include it being calm and peaceful, with good deeds feeling heartfelt. The morning after has the sun rising clearly without rays, like a brass plate. Hadith describe the prophet noting how sins can be forgiven for praying this night seeking Allah's reward. Muslims aim to spend its last 10 nights in worship, gaining its reward even if unsure of its exact date.

1. LaylatulQadr

2. Amongst the nights of Ramadhaan, there is one called 'LaylatulQadr',a night that is noted for its greatest blessings. The Noble Qur'an describes it as being greater in blessedness and spiritual virtue than a thousand months, which in turn means that it is more valuable than eighty three years and four months. Fortunate indeed is that person who attains the full blessings of this night by spending it in the worship of Allah, because he has then attained the reward of 'Ibaadah' (worship) for eighty three years,four months and even more. Indeed (the granting of) this night for the faithful Muslims is a great favour. ~LaylatulQadr: The Night of Power~

3. ~The signs of Laylatul-Qadr~ From amongst the signs of Laylatul-Qadar is that it is a calm night and the believer's heart is delighted and at peace with it, and he becomes active in doing good actions, and the sun on the following morning rises clearly without any rays.FataawaRamadhaan - Volume 2, Page 852, Fatwa No. 841; Fataawa ash-Shaykh Muhammad as-Saalih al-Uthaymeen - Volume 1, Page 563 From amongst the signs of Laylatul-Qadar is that it is a calm night and the believer's heart is delighted and at peace with it, and he becomes active in doing good actions, and the sun on the following morning rises clearly without any rays.FataawaRamadhaan - Volume 2, Page 852, Fatwa No. 841; Fataawa ash-Shaykh Muhammad as-Saalih al-Uthaymeen

4. ~Ahadith on signs of Laylatul-Qadr~ Allaah's Messenger (sallallahualaihiwasallam)described the morning after Lailatul-Qadr, so that the Muslim may know which day it is. From Ubayy, (RA), who said:that he (sallallahualaihiwasallam) said: "On the morning following Laylatul-Qadr the sun rises not having any rays, as if it were a brass dish, until it rises up." {Muslim, Abu Dawud, Tirmithi and IbnMajah}

5. Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle said, "Whoever establishes the prayers on the night of Qadr out of sincere faith and hoping to attain Allah's rewards (not to show off) then all his past sins will be forgiven." Bukhari (Book #24 Hadith #34)

6. The Muslim should strive to seek it in the last ten nights of Ramadaan, as enjoined by the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), hoping to earn reward. If it so happens that a person spends this night in prayer out of faith and seeking reward, then he will gain its reward, even if he does not know that that was Laylat al-Qadr.
