It is considered the night of revelation of the Qur’an, the night in which a year’s destiny of people is sealed and destined. It is the most virtuous night of the year and the night of divine mercy and the forgiveness of sins when angels descend on the Earth. The entire Qur’an 97 was revealed to describe the Night of Qadr, a night said to be more valuable than one thousand months [more than 83 years].

That is to say, good deeds performed on that single night are equal to those performed over a thousand months (more than 83 years). Allah says: Indeed We sent it down on the Night of Ordainment. (1) And what will show you what is the Night of Ordainment? (2) The Night of Ordainment is better than a thousand months. (3) In it the angels and the Spirit descend, by the leave of their Lord, with every command. (4) It is peaceful until the rising of the dawn.

(5) There is an opinion that the Night of Qadr was just a single night, which has come and gone. That is, that very night in which the Holy Qur’an was revealed to the Prophet (PBUHH) was the Night of Qadr and it does not come again every year. Contrary to this rare opinion, it is necessary to say that based on several narrations from the Infallibles, it can be said that the Night of Qadr comes every year in the last ten days of the month of Ramadan .

According to some reports from the pure Prophet’s household [], the Night of Qadr could be found on the odd nights 19th, 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, and 29th of the last ten nights of the month. Sheikh Tusi (may God have mercy upon him) has considered the odd-numbered nights in the month the Night of Qadr.

Sheikh Abu Ja’far al-Tusi in his book Kitab al-Tibyan has said the following regarding the interpretation of “We have indeed revealed this (Message) in the Night of Destiny.” The Night of Destiny is without any doubt one of the odd nights in the last ten days of Ramadhan. There is no difference in opinion about this. Some of the Shiah scholars have said: “It is one of these two nights – the twenty-first or the twenty-third night.

Others hold the view that it may be on one of the following odd nights; the twenty-first, twenty-third, twenty-fifth, twenty-seventh, and twenty-ninth night [8] . In addition, there are narrations in which one of the three nights (19th, 21st, and 23rd is considered to be the Night of Qadr.
