What Laylat al-Qadr is

Laylat al-Qadr, the Night of Decree, is the night on which the revelation of the Quran began. Surat al-Qadr, the Quran's 97th chapter, calls it better than a thousand months. Its date is not fixed: it is sought in the last ten nights of Ramadan, above all the odd ones, and many keep the 27th.
