The Superiority of Lailat-ul-Qadr (the Night of Decree)
Imâm An-Nawawi رحمه الله تعالى
Riyad-us-Sâliheen (Chapter 214)
Allaah سبحانه و تعالى says which translates as:
“Verily, We have sent it (this Qur’aan) down in the Night of Al-Qadr (Decree). And what will make you know what the Night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is? The Night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is better than a thousand months (i.e., worshipping Allaah in that night is better than worshipping Him a thousand months, i.e., 83 years and 4 months). Therein descend the angels and the Ruh (Jibril) by Allaah’s Permission with all Decrees. (All that night), there is peace (and goodness from Allaah to His believing slaves) until the appearance of dawn.” (97:1-5)
“We sent it (this Qur’aan) down on a blessed night [(i.e., the Night of Al-Qadr, Surah No:97) in the month of Ramadhan, the 9th month of the Islaamic calendar]. Verily, We are ever warning [mankind that Our Torment will reach those who disbelieve in Our Oneness of Lordship and in Our Oneness of worship]. Therein (that night) is decreed every matter of ordainments (i.e., the matters of deaths, births, provisions, and calamities for the whole (coming) year as decreed by Allaah). As a Command (or this Qur’aan or the Decree of every matter) from Us. Verily, We are ever sending (the Messengers). (As) a Mercy from your Rubb, Verily! He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower.” (44:3-6)
1189. Abu Hurairah (رضي الله عنه) reported: The Prophet (صلى الله عليه و سلم) said, “Whosoever performs Qiyam during Lailat-ul-Qadr (Night of Decree), with Faith and being hopeful of Allaah’s reward, will have his former sins forgiven.”
[Al-Bukhari & Muslim].
1190. Ibn Umar (رضي الله عنهم) reported: Some of the Companions of the Prophet (صلى الله عليه و سلم) saw Lailat-ul-Qadr (Night of Decree) in their dreams in the last seven nights of Ramadhan, whereupon the Messenger of Allaah (صلى الله عليه و سلم) said, “I see that your dreams all agree upon the last seven nights. Whosoever seeks it, let him seek it in the last seven nights.”
[Al-Bukhari & Muslim].
1191. Aishah (رضي الله عنها) reported: The Messenger of Allaah (صلى الله عليه و سلم) used to seclude himself (in the mosque) during the last ten nights of Ramadhan. He would say, “Search for Lailat-ul-Qadr (Night of Decree) in the last ten nights of Ramadhan.”
[Al-Bukhari & Muslim].
1192. Aishah (رضي الله عنها) reported: The Messenger of Allaah (صلى الله عليه و سلم) used to observe Itikaf in the last ten days of Ramadhan and say, “Seek Lailat-ul-Qadr (Night of Decree) in the odd nights out of the last ten nights of Ramadhan.”
[Al-Bukhari].
1193. Aishah (رضي الله عنها) reported: When the last ten nights (of Ramadhan) would begin, the Messenger of Allaah (صلى الله عليه و سلم) would keep awake at night (for prayer and devotion), awaken his family and prepare himself to be more diligent in worship.
[Al-Bukhari & Muslim].
1194. Aishah (رضي الله عنها) reported: The Messenger of Allaah (صلى الله عليه و سلم) used to strive more in worship during Ramadhan than he strove in any other time of the year; and he would devote himself more (in the worship of Allaah) in the last ten nights of Ramadhan than he strove in earlier part of the month.

The Importance of Learning Arabic and the Names of Allah
Arabic is a Semitic language with a rich history and cultural significance, spoken by over 300 million people as a native language. It is the liturgical language of Islam, making it crucial for Muslims to learn, understand, and appreciate its nuances. The beauty of the Arabic language extends to its script, phonetics, and the meanings behind its words, especially the divine attributes of Allah. The concept of the '99 Names of Allah,' or Asma'ul Husna, plays a pivotal role in Islamic spirituality, offering believers a deeper understanding of their Creator. These names not only reflect the qualities of Allah but also serve as a means for Muslims to connect with Him in a profound way. This article delves into the significance of learning Arabic, the beautiful names of Allah, and the various resources available to facilitate this journey of knowledge and spirituality.
What are the beautiful names of Allah?
The beautiful names of Allah, known as Asma'ul Husna, encompass 99 names that describe the attributes and qualities of Allah. Each name reflects a unique characteristic of the divine, such as 'Al-Rahman' (The Most Merciful), 'Al-Hakeem' (The All-Wise), and 'Al-Malik' (The Sovereign). These names serve as a means for Muslims to invoke Allah in prayers and to understand more about His nature and relationship with creation.
Engaging with the names of Allah allows believers to cultivate a more personal and intimate relationship with God. When they learn the meanings and contexts of these names, it deepens their spirituality and enriches their prayers. Many Muslims choose to memorize these names, reciting them as a form of dhikr (remembrance of Allah) as part of their daily worship.
Why is learning Arabic important for Muslims?
Arabic is not only a means of communication for millions but also the language of the Quran, the holy book of Islam. Understanding Arabic allows Muslims to engage directly with the Quranic text, enabling them to grasp its meanings and teachings without the filter of translation. This direct engagement fosters a deeper appreciation and understanding of Islamic teachings.
Furthermore, learning Arabic enhances the ability to participate in religious discussions, lectures, and congregational prayers in a meaningful way. It allows Muslims to connect with their heritage and the rich literature of Islamic scholarship, fostering a sense of community and belonging among Arabic-speaking Muslims.
What resources are available for learning Arabic?
There are numerous resources available for those interested in learning Arabic, ranging from traditional classes to online platforms. Websites and mobile applications like Duolingo, Rosetta Stone, and Babbel offer interactive courses tailored for different levels. Additionally, many educational institutions provide structured Arabic courses, including dialects and Modern Standard Arabic.
The Fruits of Knowledge initiative also offers valuable resources, including text and audio recordings to help learners familiarize themselves with Arabic vocabulary and grammar. Joining online communities and forums can also enhance the learning experience, allowing students to practice conversing in Arabic with peers.
How can one memorize the names of Allah effectively?
Memorizing the names of Allah can be approached through various techniques that cater to different learning styles. Frequent repetition is essential; reciting the names regularly can help embed them in memory. Some find it helpful to understand the meanings and context behind each name, as this adds significance and aids retention.
Using mnemonic devices or visual aids can also enhance memorization. Creating flashcards with the name on one side and its meaning on the other can be an effective method. Moreover, incorporating these names into daily prayers and reflections allows for practical application, reinforcing the memorization process.
How can technology aid in learning Arabic and the names of Allah?
Technology plays a pivotal role in modern education, especially in language learning. Various applications and online platforms offer interactive lessons, quizzes, and audio resources for learning Arabic. These technological tools provide learners with the flexibility to study at their own pace and revisit challenging concepts as needed.
For the names of Allah, many apps specifically focus on teaching these names through engaging features such as audio pronunciation, translation, and explanatory notes. Online communities and social media platforms allow users to share their learning journeys, ask questions, and seek guidance from others who are also interested in deepening their understanding of Arabic and Islamic teachings.
