What is Laylatul Qadr?
Laylatul Qadr, the Night of Decree, is the night the Quran began to be revealed and is better than a thousand months; it is sought in the odd nights of the last ten nights of Ramadan, and many Muslims especially observe the 27th night.
Surah al-Qadr describes the Night of Decree as better than a thousand months, a night in which the angels and the Spirit descend by Allah’s permission, and which is peace until the break of dawn.
The Quran does not name the exact night. The hadith directs believers to seek it in the odd nights of the last ten nights of Ramadan, so the nights of the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th and 29th are the focus. Many Muslims, especially in South Asia, give particular attention to the 27th night; others strive on all the odd nights or on every night of the last ten. Scholars have held different views, and Allah knows best, so this page lists every odd night.
An Islamic night belongs to the day that follows it: the “night of the 27th” begins at sunset on the evening of 26 Ramadan and lasts until Fajr. The dates below are the evenings on which each night begins.
- Pray, recite the Quran, make dhikr and ask for forgiveness during the night. The Prophet ﷺ taught ‘A’ishah a short dua for this night (below).

Frequently asked questions
When is Laylatul Qadr 2025?
By the Umm al-Qura calendar (Saudi Arabia), Laylatul Qadr 2025 is on Wednesday, 26 March 2025 (Night of 27 Ramadan 1446 AH). In Bangladesh it is expected on Thursday, 27 March 2025, subject to moon sighting.
When is Laylatul Qadr 2025 in Bangladesh?
Laylatul Qadr 2025 is expected on Thursday, 27 March 2025 in Bangladesh, usually one day after Saudi Arabia (Wednesday, 26 March 2025), because Bangladesh begins months from local crescent sighting. The date is confirmed only by the announcement of the national moon-sighting committee.
Why do Saudi Arabia and Bangladesh have different dates?
Saudi Arabia uses the Umm al-Qura calendar, which is calculated, while Bangladesh, India and Pakistan start each month from sighting the new crescent in their own sky, so the dates are often a day apart.
Which night is Laylatul Qadr?
It is not specified. The hadith (Sahih al-Bukhari 2017) tells us to seek it in the odd nights of the last ten nights of Ramadan. Many Muslims give special attention to the 27th night, but scholars differ and Allah knows best, so strive on all the odd nights.
What should I recite on Laylatul Qadr?
‘A’ishah asked what to say if she found the night, and the Prophet ﷺ taught: “Allahumma innaka ‘afuwwun tuhibbul-‘afwa fa‘fu ‘anni” (O Allah, You are the Pardoner and love to pardon, so pardon me) — Jami at-Tirmidhi 3513.
