What is Lailat-ul-Qadr?

Lailat-ul-Qadr was the night when the Quran-e-Hakim was transferred from Loh-e-Mehfooz into the earth. 

Surah-e-Qadr :-

Surah e Qadr
Lailat-ul-Qadr

إِنَّا أَنزَلْنَاهُ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْر

وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ 

لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ 

تَنَزَّلُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَالرُّوحُ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِم مِّن كُلِّ أَمْرٍ 

سَلَامٌ هِيَ حَتَّى مَطْلَعِ الْفَجْرِ

Innaa Anzalnaahu Fiy Laylatil Qadr

          Wa Maa Adraaka Maa Laylatul Qadr 

        Laylatul Qadri Khayrum Min Alfi Shahr 

                         Tanazzalul Malaaikatu War Ruuhu fiyhaa Bi Idhni Rabbihim Min Kulli Amr 

                Salaamun Hiya Hattaa Matla’Il Fajr 

In Surah-e-Qadr  ALLAH says that this was the night when Quran was revealed. This night is better than thousand nights. On this night all the angels and Jibrael (A.S) descend to the earth.

Reason of getting Lialat-ul-Qadr:-

Imam Malik (R.A) says that when Hazrat Muhammad (S.A.W) looked at the ages of previous Ummats, he found out that the life time of his Ummat was very less. He thought that the life time of his Ummat is very less therefore, their virtues and good deeds will be less than other Ummats. In return of this thought ALLAH gave us the night of Qadr.
