Surah Al-Qadr (القدر)
The Power · Meccan · 5 ayahs · Juz 30
- 97:1
إِنَّآ أَنزَلْنَـٰهُ فِى لَيْلَةِ ٱلْقَدْرِ
Verily We revealed it (the Qur'aan) on the night of Qadr. (On the night of Qadr the Qur'aan was brought down from the "Lowhul Mahfoodh" to the heaven above the earth. It was from here that Jibraeel عليه الصلاة والسلام brought the Qur'aan to Rasulullaah ﷺ over a period of twenty-three years.)
- 97:2
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا لَيْلَةُ ٱلْقَدْرِ
Do you know what is the night of Qadr (night of Taqdeer or night of Power)?
- 97:3
لَيْلَةُ ٱلْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ
The night of Qadr is better than a thousand months. (Therefore, the person who engages in Ibaadah during the night of Qadr will be rewarded more than a person who engages in Ibaadah for a thousand months that do not include a night of Qadr.)
- 97:4
تَنَزَّلُ ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ وَٱلرُّوحُ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِم مِّن كُلِّ أَمْرٍ
The angels and the “Rooh" (Jibra'eel عليه الصلاة والسلام) descend with every decision (order) on this night by the command of their Rabb. (It is on this night that the angels with duties on earth receive their instructions for the forthcoming year.)
- 97:5
سَلَـٰمٌ هِىَ حَتَّىٰ مَطْلَعِ ٱلْفَجْرِ
It (this night) is full of peace (blessings and serenity) and (all of this) lasts (from sunset) until the break of dawn. (The entire night is therefore blessed.)
