Brilio.net - Lailatul Qadar night is a special feature in the month of Ramadan. Tonight is a very important time for Muslims around the world. In this blessed night, good deeds such as prayer, dhikr and prayer have enormous value. All worship has double the reward. Not to mention the abundant privileges in it.
Celebrating the night of Lailatul Qadar by increasing the number of acts of worship is a highly recommended way to obtain blessings and forgiveness from Allah SWT. One of the main practices is prayer, especially evening prayers (tahajjud) and sunnah prayers before or after obligatory prayers.
Apart from prayer, dhikr is also a practice that is highly recommended on the night of Lailatul Qadar. By remembering Allah SWT through dhikr, the heart becomes calm and full of sincerity. Dhikr can also help you get closer to Him.
Don't forget, prayer is also the main weapon for Muslims in seeking goodness and blessings. Praying more on the night of Lailatul Qadar, both for ourselves and for others, is a sign of our faith and devotion to Allah SWT.
So, let's make the best use of the last nights of the month of Ramadan . Increase your practice of prayer, dhikr and good prayers, and pray so that everyone will be given the strength to continue to be istiqomah in worship. May Allah SWT be pleased with the deeds you do and make you a servant who is always obedient and devout.
This night, filled with blessings, forgiveness and multiple rewards, is a moment that every Muslim eagerly awaits. The presence of this night in every month of Ramadan is a great gift for Muslims, because Allah SWT says in the Koran, "The night of glory is better than a thousand months." (QS Al-Qadr: 3).
Laylatul Qadar night has special features that other nights do not have. Rasulullah SAW said, "Whoever prays on the night of Lailatul Qadar because of faith and hopes for a reward from Allah, his past sins will be forgiven." (HR. Al-Bukhari and Muslim). Therefore, carrying out prayers tonight is a must for Muslims who want to receive the blessings and forgiveness of Allah SWT.

Of the many opinions regarding the arrival of Lailatul Qadar, the most famous is that it comes in the last third of the month of Ramadan. Some scholars recommend carrying out this sunnah prayer on the 21st until the end of Ramadan according to the Hijriyah calendar. You are allowed to perform it after the Isha prayer or after the sunnah tarawih prayer.
