The holy Shab-e-Qadr or Lailatul Qadr (the Night of Decree) when the first verses of the holy Quran were revealed to Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH), observes on Thursday night.
The Muslims will pass the night offering special prayers, reciting the holy Quran, holding zikr and other religious rituals, seeking blessings of the almighty Allah for long life, peace and progress for themselves, their families, relatives and friends as well as the nation and the Muslim Ummah.
According to the holy Quran, the night is better than 1,000 nights as
the angels and the spirit descend therein, by the permission of Almighty
Allah with all decrees.
This is one of the holiest and most
blessed night which is likely to occur on one of the odd number nights
in the last 10 days of Ramadan and most likely to be the 27th of the
holy month.
After Taraweeh prayers, Waz-mahfil, milad and doa-mahfil and special
munajat will be organized at all mosques of the country including
National Mosque.
Newspapers will publish special articles while state-run Bangladesh
Betar, Bangladesh Television and private television channels will
telecast special programmes highlighting the significance of Lailatul
Qadr.
