Al-Qadr القدر · Abdullah Awad al-Juhani

إِنَّآ أَنزَلۡنَٰهُ فِي لَيۡلَةِ ٱلۡقَدۡرِ ۝١

Indeed, We sent it [i.e., the Qur’ān] down during the Night of Decree.

وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا لَيۡلَةُ ٱلۡقَدۡرِ ۝٢

And what can make you know what is the Night of Decree?

لَيۡلَةُ ٱلۡقَدۡرِ خَيۡرٞ مِّنۡ أَلۡفِ شَهۡرٖ ۝٣

The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months.

تَنَزَّلُ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ وَٱلرُّوحُ فِيهَا بِإِذۡنِ رَبِّهِم مِّن كُلِّ أَمۡرٖ ۝٤

The angels and the Spirit [i.e., Gabriel] descend therein by permission of their Lord for every matter.¹⁹⁵⁵

سَلَٰمٌ هِيَ حَتَّىٰ مَطۡلَعِ ٱلۡفَجۡرِ ۝٥

Peace it is¹⁹⁵⁶ until the emergence of dawn.
