2 Merits Some Ahadith indicate that the fate of every believer for the coming year is decreed on this night. That is why the Du`as for this night ask for special favors in the decree for the year

3 Merits It is reported that whoever keeps awake on the nights of Qadr shall have his/her sins forgiven even if they equal the number of the stars in the heavens.

4 Merits Among the nights of Ramadhan is one special night, which is better than a thousand months (HQ, 97:3). Good deeds performed on that single night are more to those performed over a thousand months. It is the Night of Power (Laylatul Qadr), when the Qur'an was revealed.

5 Merits Laylatul Qadr is the night, which is the best night among the nights of the whole year. The A'amaal (religious performances) of this night are better than the A'amaal of 1000 months. In this night the divine Annual Decree is passed. The Angels and Roohul Ameen (A highly dignified Angel) descend on this earth, in that night. These call on the Imam of the time (A), and what is ordained (by Allāh (SWT)) for everybody is presented before the Imam (A). Allama Majlisi (r.a) says, It is better to take a bath before sunset so that the night prayers may be performed after bath..

6 Merits One, who performs the ghusl on the Night of Qadr and remains awake in it (engaged in worship), shall have all his sins forgiven. Imām Mūsá ibn Ja far al-kāżim (A.S) - [Reference: Wasaail al-shia'h, vol. 10, pg. 358]

7 Merits On the Night of Power the gates of Heaven are opened. There for every is no servant who offers prayer in this night, but Allāh for every prostration stores a tree in the Paradise - the tree whose branches and shade is so vast that if a rider travels for one hundred years through its shade he would not be able to cross it; for every ra'kat would build a home for him in Paradise - the home decorated and built by pearls, topaz, and rubies; for every verse recited a crown from the crowns of Paradise; for every praise (tasbeeh) a bird from the birds of Paradise; for every sitting a rank from the ranks of Paradise; for every witnessing (tashahud) - a chamber from the chambers of Paradise, and for every salutation - a robe from the robes of Paradise would be bestowed upon him by Allāh. And at the breaking of the dawn, companions - youthful and sympathetic, houris of Paradise - pure and decorated, servant obedient and well uniformed, horses - most obedient and swift, flowers, greenery, and good smells, running elegant fountain streams, and many other bounties which make the soul pleased and eyes to shine, would also be bestowed upon him by Allāh. Holy Prophet (S) - [Reference: Spiritual Journey of the Mystics, Chapter 9. Night of Power (Lailatul-Qadr)]

8 Recommended general acts for laylat al-qadr 1. Take a Ghusl preferably near sunset time (wudhu also required) and Give/pre arrange for Sadqah/Charity tonight. 2. Recite two Rak`ah Salaat, in every Rak`ah recite Sura-al- Hamd, and Sura Ikhlaas seven times.(for seeking protection against sinning for the seven organs ) After finishing Salat و أ ت وب إل ي ه times: recite 70 أ س ت غ ف ر للا It is reported from the Prophet (s) that by the time the reciter will rise from his place Allāh (swt) will have forgiven him and his parents. Try to first be really repentant for serious mistakes done, sincerely ask for forgiveness either by: (a) recalling 70 different sins OR (b) feeling remorseful for 10 sins of the 7 main organs: eyes, ears, tongue, hands, mouth, stomach + private parts OR (c) some particular sins that you may have committed repeatedly OR (d) recalling the variety of punishments of different sins and finally resolve NOT TO Repeat them in the future. The Holy Prophet has promised Whoever performs this act will surely be forgiven by the Almighty even before here rises from his place".

9 Recite Two Rak`ah Salaat: in every Rak`ah recite Surah al-fatihah and and Surah al-tawhid / Ikhlaas seven times, after Salaat recite the following:

10 ا ث ب إل ي. Recite 70 times ص ج ي و ا ؾ ف ر الل I seek the forgiveness of Allāh, my Lord, and I repent before Him. astaghfiru allaha wa atubu ilayhi

12 Please open the Holy Qur'an and recite the following: When opening the Qur an and praying for your needs with the intercession of the Qur an, realize that while the Qur an is a cure for spiritual illness, it only benefits the pious ones and the evil doers are deprived of its illumination. Thus increase the chances for Qur an intercession to work on your behalf by earnestly following the rulings of the Qur an.

20 Please place the Holy Qur'an on the head and recite the following: While placing the Qur an on the head, remind yourself that true salvation can only be achieved by always keeping the rules of Qur an ahead of us to follow.
