Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem
Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu
All Praise be Allah Almighty the Lord of the Worlds, and endless blessings upon His Most Beloved and Final Messenger, Hadrat Muhammad Mustafa Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa 'aalihi wa SallamJazak'allah for your question. Indeed
Laylat al Qadr is the most excellent night of the whole year, it is better then a thousand months, one nights worship is equivalent to the worship of a life time. The night occurs during one of the odd nights of the last ten days of
Ramadan, most likely to be on the 27th
Ramadan.
The Most Beloved of Allah, Huzur Nabi
Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam said ''People who won't be able to benefit on this blessed night are listed as follows, unless these people ask for forgiveness for their sins : Muslim enemies, people who don't give
zakaat and encourage people not to either, people who break relationships, laugh at the facts of the grave, people who back bite, being lazy to pray
salaat, not talking to a muslim brother for more than three days, including
haram, shirk, kufar, nazayess.''
On this blessed night pray the following: the
Qur'an al kareem, nafil salaat, tasbih, du'as, astagfar, kalma-e tamjid, Surah ikhlas and plenty of
darood shareef as often as you can. Whoever prays by heart
"Laa elaahaa el-lal laahu Muham-madur rasulul-laah" by praying first time you will be clean of sins, praying second time you will be clear of hell, and praying third time you will be accepted in Paradise. It is quoted in the
Hadith shareef that whoever prays from the heart and with intention, will be forgiven for all their sins.
Huzur Nabi-e-paak
Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam said on the night of
Laylat al Qadr you must pray this
du'a as much as possible:
" ALLAAHUMMA INNAKA AFUWUN TUHIBBUL AFWA F-AFL' ANNAA"
(0 Allah, you are the one who grants pardon for sins, you love to pardon so pardon us)
Astagfar: '' ASTAG FIRULLAA HULLAZI LAA-E-LAAHAA ILLAA HUWAL HAIYUL KAIYUM V-A-TUBU ILAIH''
(I seek forgiveness from Allah, the Almighty, there is no god but He, He is the Self-existent, the eternal and I turn to Him)
Whoever on this night prays :
"Innaa anzalnaahu fee lailatil qadr. Wa maa adraaka maalailatul qadr. LailatuI qadri khairum min alfi shahr. Tanazalul malaa ikatu varroohu fee haa bi-izni rabbihim min kulli amr. Salaamun heeyaa hattaa matlaeel fajr." If they pray
''Innaa anzalnaahu'' (above) 700, or 70, or 7 times at least, Allah
Subhanahu wa Ta'ala will forgive that person's sins, save them from all their troubles and ghosts, also 70,000 angels will pray for that person to go to
Jannat (Paradise).
