When Is Laylat Al-Qadr 2024

Brothers and sisters in Islam, Ibn Qayyim Rahimahullah

said something profound about when Laylatul Qadr is.

He said if I knew that Laylat al

Qadr was one night out of the entire

year and it wasn't exclusive to Ramadan,

So if Laylat al Qadr was potentially 1

night out of

365

nights of the year, he said it would

be worth it that the believer

gets up every single night of the year

and worships Allah for that entire night

just so he can earn the huge reward

of Laylat al Qadr.

Imagine then brothers and sisters in Islam when

we definitely know that Laylat al Qadr is

in only one of 10 nights of the

year and they are now in Ramadan.

How much energy

and how much motivation should a believer have

to get up for the last 10 nights

of Ramadan?

Brothers and sisters in Islam, this question always

comes up from time to time when we

are especially in the last 10 nights of

Ramadan. People are always concerned and asked when

is Laylat al Qadr? Did you see the

signs? Has anyone seen a dream? When? And

so on.

Laylatul Qadr and when it is, there are

over 40 opinions as Ibn Hajar

mentions.

Some said it is in the odd nights,

and that is something authentic that An Nabi

said. Some said it's on even nights, some

said it's on 27th, some say on 23rd,

on the first night of the last 10,

in the last night of the last 10.

There are so many opinions,

and so the idea here is don't focus

on when Laylat al Qadr is. Don't pay

attention to when it is.

Your attention should be paid on what Laylat

Al Qadr

is, when you know what Laylat Al Qadr

is and what virtue it carries and what

reward it carries and its honor and its

greatness

You will be motivated to worship Allah Azza

wa Jal for all 10 nights

as opposed to the one who is focused

on when Laylat Al Qadr is. When it's

an odd night, he is motivated to worship.

When it's an even night, he is not

motivated to worship. If someone saw a dream

that Laylat al Qadr was last night,

then he gives up on worship all the

way until Al Aid and this is the

problem that happens when you focus on when

Laylat Al Qadr is and if you pay

attention to the Quran Allah Subhanahu wa'ta'ala never

made a mention of when it is, rather

Allah Azzawajal He said

what will give you a clue as to

what

is about Allah focused on what

is and he never said

Allah never focused on when laylatul Qadr was

and then that's why in Suratul Qadr It's

all about what laylatul Qadr is when you

know it's virtue and what it's about you

are motivated to worship all night

and it is Khayrum Al Fisar it is

better than a 1000 months of worship. You

know, there is

a narration in Al Mu'ta that Nabi

saw the ages

of the previous nations and how they lived

for long lives,

and he compared it to the ages of

this Ummah, which is between 60 70 years.

So he felt worried

that we with this short age might not

achieve

what the previous nations achieved of reward because

they lived longer and were able to worship

Allah longer.

So Allah Azzawajal

gave him Laylatul Qadr

We were blessed, we were gifted with Laylatul

Qadr, so we can add a lifetime of

reward into our good deeds.

Imagine you live 10 laylatul Qadr in your

life or 30 laylatul Qadr, or Allah gave

you life and you witnessed 40 laylatul Qadrs

in your life.

Imagine that then that means

40

lifetimes

are added onto your good deeds Allahu Akbar.

You meet Allah

with mountains and ease and ease and centuries

of worship.

We ask Allah

to make us of those who stand up

to accept from us all.

to accept from us all.
