Lailatul Qadr HistoryLailatul Qadr, also known as Night of Power or the Night of Decree, commemorates the night when Allah revealed the first verses of the Quran to the Prophet Muhammad, it holds a great spiritual significance for Muslims worldwide. Devotees spend this special night in prayer, seeking forgiveness, giving charity, and reciting the Quran, which is believed to bring about enormous blessings, rewards, and the purification of one's soul. Originating from the Arabian Peninsula in the 7th century, Lailatul Qadr has since extended its geographical reach, and is now observed by Muslims across the world, including South Africa. The varied Islamic practices amongst South Africans reflect the diverse origins of its Muslim community, whose roots can be traced back to Southeast Asian, Indian, and African Muslims. On this sacred night, it is customary for South African Muslims to engage in additional prayers, known as Tarawih, having iftar(morning feast), and participate in communal religious activities. In South Africa, Mosques become vibrant centres of spiritual activity, adorned with lights and filled with the melodious recitation of the Quran. It is common to have full night-long prayer sessions, including community iftars and sehri - predawn meal. Lailatul Qadr is observed during the last ten days of Ramadan, as is the case globally, as the exact date is not specified in the Quran. It's widely believed to fall on the odd nights, primarily the 27th. Whether in urban areas like Cape Town and Johannesburg or rural communities, the significance of this night radiates through various Islamic practices in South Africa. Facts about Lailatul Qadr
