What should I do on the night of Laylatul Qadr?

 

What should I do on the night of Laylatul Qadr?

1. Make the duaa that the Prophet taught Aaishah رضي الله عنها

 ((اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي))

O Allah, indeed You are Pardoning, You love to pardon, so pardon me.

2. Read Quraan (the Prophet used to study with Jibreel).

3. Pray Taraweeh or night prayer (if you stand with the imam till  he finishes, then you have the reward of standing in prayer all night).

4. Engage in dhikr – remembrance of Allaah.

5. Make general duaa for yourself, family, friends, Muslim Ummah, Muslim leaders and scholars etc. If a Muslim does not ask Allaah or make duaa He becomes angry.

6. Seek forgiveness for your sins and repent  from them (istighfaar and tawbah). Allaah frees people  from the Fire every night of Ramadhaan.

7. Charity –Sadaqah (Prophet was most generous in Ramadhaan). This is the night that  Allaah decrees  your provisions for the whole year. Use your wealth that Allaah  blessed you with  for good.

8. All types of good deeds.

9. Seclude yourself in the masjid – itikaaf (can be even one hour, one night 10 days).

N.B The night (islamically) start at sunset, Maghrib time, and finishes at dawn, Fajr time.
