Laylatul Qadr
According to the Salaf and scholars Laylatul Qadr is most probably on night of 27th of Ramadan. Which is tomorrow in many parts of the world.
“Verily! We have sent this (Qur'aan) down in the Night of al-Qadr.
And what will make you know what Night of Qadr is?
The Night of al-Qadr is better than one thousand months
.
In it the angels and the Spirit (Angel Jibreel alaihis-salaam) descend, by the Permission of Allah, with all decrees.
Peace it is until the appearance of dawn.”
[Soorah al-Qadr (97): 1-5]
Qiyam:
It is recommended to make Qiyam (standing) in prayer during the nights on which Laylat al-Qadr could fall. This is indicated in a number of Ahadeeth. The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaihi wa-sallam) said:
“Whoever stands (in Qiyam) in Laylat al-Qadr (and it is facilitated to him) out of faith and expectation (of Allah's reward), will have all his previous sins forgiven.”
[Saheeh al-Bukharee and Saheeh Muslim]
Supplication:
It is also recommended to make extensive supplications on the night of Laylat al-Qadr. Aa'ishah (radhi allahu anha) reported that she asked the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa-sallam):
"O Messenger of Allah ! If I knew the night of Laylat al-Qadr, what should I say during it?” And he (sallallahu alaihi wa-sallam) instructed her to say:
“Allahumma innaka afuwwun tuhibbul afwa fa'fu anni”
O Allah! You are forgiving, and you love forgiveness. So forgive me.”
[(saheeh) by Shaikh al-Albanee (Musnad Ahmad, Ibn Majah and at-Tirmidhee)]
