#IJRAmadan Day 23
During the holy month of Ramadan, there is a night called "The Night of Qadr". Qadr can mean greatness, honour, dignity, or predestination.
The Night of Al-Qadr occurs during the last ten (nights). Whoever stands for them (in prayer) seeking their reward, then indeed Allah will forgive his previous sins and his latter sins.
It is an odd night: the ninth, or the seventh, or the fifth, or the third or the last night (of Ramadan).
Prophet Muhammad p.b.u.h. described the sign of the Night of Al-Qadr that it is pure and glowing as if there were a bright, tranquil, calm moon during it. It is not cold, nor is it hot, and no shooting star is permitted until morning. Its sign is that the sun appears on the morning following it smooth having no rays on it, just like the moon on a full moon night. Shaytan is not allowed to come out with it (the sun) on that day.
(Tafseer Maarif-ul-Quran and Ibn Kathir)
