Mufti Menk – Children’s Series – What is Laylatul Qadr? – The Night of Decree

			Salam Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh My beloved children, you know that lay little cutter is the
Night of Decree where the decree is made by Allah, Allah makes decisions, what's going to happen for
the whole year and so on? Everything Allah decides it and sends it down Subhan Allah for the whole
year. So that's a good powerful, powerful night. Some people call it the night of power, it's fine.
Why is it so powerful? Well, firstly, it is because Allah decided that it will be powerful. Now, how
powerful is it? Allah says, lay let we'll call the
		

			mean el facia. The Night of Decree is better than 1000 months and if you work out 1000 months is
between 83 and 84 years. Wow. One night is better than 83 and a half years Subhan Allah. So what
should I do on that night? Well, I need to make dua to Allah at least I need to at least do a little
bit more than I do on other nights. I know you guys are children, but you can still read one more to
read a little bit more Quran do two units of extra prayer, to seek Allah's forgiveness just to say
Allah Houma, inaka for one to hit bull alpha for me, Oh Allah, you are forgiving. You love to
forgive. So forgive me. Wow. Allah is a full one to hibel Africa. That's the quality of Allah. He
		

			forgives and he loves to forgive. So just love Allah know that Allah is amazing. He's going to
forgive you and He will always forgive you. But you need to seek and ask for that forgiveness. Oh
Allah, forgive me. What I said was wrong, what I did was wrong, and so on. So Allah will forgive you
and He will bless you and He will grant you and then all your do as you want your supplications I
need something make dua Allah protect me protect my parents, protect us from Corona, grand cure to
this person, have mercy on that person, or helped me at school help me this way, do this for me do
that for me, and so on. And there's no harm make your art to Allah. it's beneficial. It's good for
		

			you actually. So that night have decreed what happened is, initially, it was known which night it
is. Now we no longer know which night it is, but we have an idea roughly where it is. So the Prophet
Muhammad wa sallam told us that because two people were arguing and fighting, so Allah took away the
knowledge of the exact night, nevermind, no problem, whatever it was, it's okay. But what happened?
He told us that lay little cutter, you need to look for it, you need to search for it. How do you
search for it? By making dua by reading Salah by doing some extra ibadah extra active worship
something, maybe a few few verses of the Quran more by doing something good a good deed during the
		

			nights of the last 10 nights of Ramadan. So it's in the last 10 nights of Ramadan, most probably one
of the odd nights of the last 10 nights of Ramadan. So the 21st night, the 23rd night the 25th
night, the 27th night or the 29th night, some people say most likely the 27th or 29th. But either
way, it's one of those odd nights, most probably. So all the 10 nights make sure that at least you
make dua for your parents get used to it because when you grow older, you will then become
accustomed you'll become used to
		

			making do and doing some extra acts of worship during the last 10 nights of Ramadan. So I thought
I'd let you know that's a little harder. It's the night of decreed the night of power. Some of the
scholars say that that was the night where the Mirage happened. We're not 100% certain but it's
possible. Some say it was in Raja, some say it was in Ramadan, the 27th of Ramadan, some say 27th of
Raja, perhaps Ramadan is a little bit better in terms of the narration. Allah knows best. But still
what we do know for a fact is that it's the night of power The Night of Decree and Allah will open
your doors. It's more it's better than 1000 months you calculate 12 months every year 1000 months
		

			how many years is that? Imagine you're going to get a reward of worshipping Allah for 83 and
something years, just by one night. May Allah bless you your your loved ones, all of your loved
ones. May Allah unite us all in gentle metal fair dose.
		

			And remember Allah loves you, as salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.
