Question
Assalamualaikum..how to find layatul Qadr
Islamic Ruling & Answer
Walekumussalam,
Laylat al-Qadr cannot be determined with certainty. However, the hadees mention that it should be sought in the odd nights of the last ten days of Ramadan (21, 23, 25, 27, 29). Therefore, one should increase prayer, recitation of the Qurโan, supplication, and seeking forgiveness during these nights.
The Prophet ๏ทบ especially taught to recite this supplication:
ุงูููู ุฅูู ุนูู ุชุญุจ ุงูุนูู ูุงุนู ุนูู
Allahumma innaka โafuwwun tuhibbul โafwa faโfu โanni
Meaning: O Allah, You are Most Forgiving and You love to forgive, so forgive me.
The best approach is to devote oneself to worship during all the nights of the last ten days of Ramadan.
