The Night of Power - Laylatul Qadr - 2013 Dates - UK



So valuable is Laylatul Qadr (The Night of Power) that the Quran devotes a special surah to it “Lailatul Qadr is better than a thousand months” [97:3]


Abu Huraira (RA) narrated that the Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said: “Whoever stands (in prayer) in Laylatul Qadr while nourishing his faith with self-evaluation, expecting reward from Allah, will have all of his previous sins forgiven.” (Bukhari and Muslim).



Not only does the worship of this one night surpass the value of 30,000 nights which is over 83 YEARS OF WORSHIP but an entire lifetime of sins wiped out in this unique and blessed night!Subhanallah!

There is no way we can afford to miss out on such a blessed night!

According to authentic narrations Laylatul Qadr can be found in any of the last ten nights of Ramadan. Therefore we should try our utmost to worship in all of the last ten nights of Ramadan.
If one cannot worship the whole of the last ten nights then one should strive to worship in as many of the last ten nights as is possible in order to gain these immense rewards. Surely to miss out on such rewards will be a source of huge regret on the day of Judgement..

It is also said that Laylatul Qadr moves around the last ten nights of Ramadan and that it is more likely to be found in the odd numbered nights of the last 10 nights of Ramadan: 21st night, 23rd, 25th, 27th & 29th nights.

So if we cannot worship the whole of the last ten nights of Ramadan then we should at least worship the last odd nights. If we still cannot do that then we should worship the 27th night but there is no guarantee that this will be the auspicious night of Power. So in order to catch this night then we must worship all the last 10 nights or as many as we can possibly manage.


The Dates for the last ten nights of Ramadan In the Uk for 2013 are as follows:

21st Night - Monday 29th of July - From Maghrib until Fajr

22nd Night - Tuesday 30th of July 8th - From Maghrib until Fajr

23rd Night - Wednesday 31st of July - From Maghrib until Fajr

24th Night - Thursday 1st of August - From Maghrib until Fajr

25th Night - Friday 2nd of August - From Maghrib until Fajr

26th Night - Saturday 3rd of August - From Maghrib until Fajr

27th Night - Sunday 4th of August - From Maghrib until Fajr

28th Night - Monday 5th of August - From Maghrib until Fajr.

29th Night - Tuesday 6th of August - From Maghrib until Fajr

30th Night - Wednesday 7th August - From Maghrib until Fajr.


If Ramadan is 29 days then Eid Ul Fitr will be on - Thursday 8th of August. If it is 30 days then Eid ul Fitr will be on Friday the 9th of August Insha'Allah

Remember: We can gain 83 years of worship reward and forgiveness for an entire lifetime of sins for worshipping on this one special night. So we CANNOT afford to miss out. If we are working on the days after those nights and we can take those days or go work later on that day then we should try to, even if it means we to work go tired on those days, so be it as it is only once a year whre this opportunity comes and we may NEVER get such an opportunity again as we may not be alive next year!


So make the commitment!

So we should all make a firm commitment to devote ourselves in worship on all of the last 10 nights, if not then on the odd numbered nights, if not then at least on as many nights as we can. If we still cannot do that then at least on the 27th night. We should worship Allah with full sincerity, hope for immense reward, forgiveness and mercy from Allah for an entire lifetime of sins.

We should also make a firm commitment to Allah that we will change ourselves for the better for the rest of the year as Ramadan is for life not just for one month.

We must remember that our time is very short and that this may well be our very last Ramadan as it was the last Ramadan for so many who thought they would make it!

So let us grab this opportunity with both hands! If we walk towards Allah then he will run towards us!

Everybody should take advantage of these precious and holy nights.

[Hamza Asadullah]

Everybody should take advantage of these precious and holy nights.

Apologies I have updated the dates to reflect the fact that the 21st night begins tonight which marks the beginning of the blessed ten nights of Ramadan.

May Allah enable us to make the best of these most blessed ten days and nights of Ramadan. Ameen

[Hamza Asadullah]

Tonight is the 23rd Night and so may well be the blessed Night of Power so we should all make every effort to worship as much as we possibly can.

[Hamza Asadullah]

Tonight is the 25th Night and so may very well be Laylatul Qadr. So we must not waste this blessed night for just a couple hours of worship we can possibly gain over 83 years of worship reward! So we CANNOT miss out.



Subhanallah how generous is Allah!

[Hamza Asadullah]

TONIGHT IS THE 27TH NIGHT!

Although the majority opinion of scholars is that Laylatul Qadr occurs in one of the last 10 night and that it is more likely to occur in one of the odd nights. Some scholars say that of the odd nights Laylatul Qadr is more likely to occur on the 27th night which is tonight. Although there is no guarantee of this it is still a possibility according to some scholars.

So how can we miss out on a night in which we can gain rewards of over 83 years no matter what acts of worship we do.

Subhanallah We cannot afford to miss out on such an opportunity as we may not be alive next year to gain such an opportunity again!

[Taabuu]

On this blessed and holy night, I am praying for all of my Sisters and Brothers in the ummah, and indeed all of humankind. May Allah grant us His peace and forgiveness and shower us with His blessings and mercies,
Ameen.

TONIGHT IS THE LAST ODD NIGHT - 29TH RAMADAN:

There is every possibility that tonight could be the Night of Power. Therefore we must make the best of this night and know that we may reap rewards of over 83 years in such a small amount of time! Most of us will never even live that long!

So do as many voluntary prayers, Qur'an recitation, Dhikr (remembrance) and glorification of , give in charity and do s many Dua's as possible and know that you may receive rewards like such worship was done for over 83 years! Subhanallah!

Allah never stops giving but we tire from asking!
