Ayat 1. Hâ-Mîm. [These letters are one of the miracles of the Qur’an and none but Allah (Alone) knows their meanings].

Ayat 2. By the manifest Book (this Qur’an) that makes things clear,

Ayat 3. We sent it (this Qur’an) down on a blessed night [(i.e. night of Qadr, Surah No: 97) in the month of Ramadan, the 9th month of the Islamic calendar]. Verily, We are ever warning [mankind that Our Torment will reach those who disbelieve in Our Oneness of Lordship and in Our Oneness of worship].

Ayat 4. Therein (that night) is decreed every matter of ordainments.

Ayat 5. Amran (i.e. a Command or this Qur'an or the Decree of every matter) from Us. Verily, We are ever sending (the Messengers),

Ayat 6. (As) a Mercy from your Lord. Verily! He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower.

Tafseer of Surah Ad-Dukhan Ayat 1 to 6. Ha Mim. These Abbreviated Letters meaning of only knows to Allah. Ayat 2. The Qur'an is its own evidence. In the last Surah (43:3) stress was laid on the fact that everyone could understand it. Here the stress is on the fact that it is a Message of Mercy from Allah in that it warns mankind against evil. Ayat 3. Usually taken to be a night in the month of Ramadan, say the 23rd, 25th, or 27th night of that month. It is referred to as the Night of Power in 97:1-2. See also 2:185. But perhaps we need not fix it literally by the calendar. The night that a Message descends from Allah is indeed a blessed night like a day of rain for a parched land. Ayat 4. In the (Night) is made distinct every affair of wisdom, Such an occasion is one on which divine Wisdom places before us, through Revelation, the solution of spiritual problems of the highest import to mankind. Ayat 5. By command, from Our Presence. For We (ever) send (revelations). Ayat 6. As Mercy from thy Lord: for He hears and knows (All things); It is because Allah is the friend of the friendless and the help of the helpless that He hears all sincere prayers, and as His knowledge embraces all things, He grants to us whatever is best for us, not as we see it, but as He knows it in His perfect knowledge.

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said,  "Whosoever performs Qiyam during Lailat-ul-Qadr (Night of Decree), with Faith and being hopeful of Allah's reward, will have his former sins forgiven.''  [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Ad-Dukhan Ayat 3. We sent it (this Qur’an) down on a blessed night [(i.e. night of Qadr, Surah No: 97) in the month of Ramadan, the 9th month of the Islamic calendar]. Verily, We are ever warning” Qiyam here means what keeps one awake to one's capacity and for worship and makes one perform Nawafil, impels one to beg pardon for sins from Allah, urges one to praise Him. Specially, if a person performs Isha prayer and Fajr prayer in congregation, he will hopefully attain all those distinctions which are mentioned in this Hadith.
