also known as Surah Bani Israel [The Children of
Israel]
Ayat 82.
And We send down from the Qur'ân that which is a healing and a mercy to
those who believe (in Islâmic Monotheism and act on it), and it increases the
Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers) nothing but loss.
Hazrat
Aishah (May Allah be pleased with
her) reported: I asked: "O Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH)! If I realize Lailat-ul-Qadr (Night of Decree), what should I
supplicate in it?'' He [SAWW](PBUH) replied, "You should supplicate: Allahumma
innaka `afuwwun, tuhibbul-`afwa, fa`fu `anni (O Allah, You are Most
Forgiving, and You love forgiveness; so forgive me).'' [At-Tirmidhi Hadith #
3513].
Lesson : Although no specific sign of Lailat-ul-Qadr has been mentioned in the
Ahadith, some eminent scholars have stated, on the basis of their own
experiences and observation, that since angels descend on this night, one feels
a peculiar tranquillity and peace of mind and one is overwhelmed with a unique
tenderness of heart. The night is neither very hot nor very cold but a temperate
one. Similarly, the sun that rises on the next day is also not very hot etc.
etc. Allah knows the truth of the matter despite all that has been said in this
regard. In any case, on this auspicious night every Muslim should earnestly pray
to Allah for the forgiveness of his sins with reference to His Attribute of
Forgiveness.
