LAILAT-UL-QADR



In the name of God, the Benevolent, the Merciful:

1 Lo! We revealed it on the Night of Predestination.

2 Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Night of Power is!

3 The Night of Power has more blessings than a thousand months.

4 The angels and the Spirit descend therein, by the permission of their Lord, with all decrees.

5 (The night is) Peace until the rising of the dawn.


Maybe the term Night of Power is not ideally interprets the meaning of LAILAT-UL-QADR.. It is the interval between Predestination or Predetermined fate, and the free Will that constitutes Divine judgment..


This represents the ultimate Islamic philosophy that is complex to understand by both Muslims and non-Muslims.. Where the demise of Predetermination sounds conflicting with the Free-Will.. This had created confusion, that grows among many to question the value of endeavor.. However, Islam had also recommended endeavor as the true and main quality of belief, regardless signs of blessings and forgiveness, if any..


For Muslims, it is the annual opportunity to cordially admit submission, win an changed fate, and seek precious forgiveness..
For non-Muslims, it is a blessed moment that showers all creation..!!

Saom Magbool (May your fast be accepted)..
Be Blessed, and may have all your prayers accepted..
