Kadir Gecesi, also known as Laylat al-Qadr in Arabic, is a significant night in the Islamic faith observed during the last ten days of Ramadan. It is believed to be the night when the Quran, the holy book of Islam, was first revealed to the Prophet Muhammad by Allah through the angel Gabriel (Jibril). The exact date of Laylat al-Qadr is not known, but it is commonly believed to occur on one of the odd-numbered nights in the last ten days of Ramadan, such as the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, or 29th night.
The significance of Kadir Gecesi is immense in Islam, as the Quran describes it as a night of great blessings, mercy, and spiritual significance. Muslims believe that on this night, Allah decrees matters for the upcoming year, forgives the sins of believers, and grants special blessings and rewards to those who engage in worship and prayer.
Muslims spend Kadir Gecesi engaged in various acts of worship, including recitation of the Quran, offering special prayers (such as Salat al-Tasbih or extra units of prayer called Tarawih), making heartfelt supplications (dua), and seeking forgiveness for their sins. Many also engage in charitable activities and strive to increase their acts of devotion during this blessed night.

The night is described in the Quran in Surah Al-Qadr (97:1-5): “Indeed, We sent the Qur’an down during the Night of Decree. And what can make you know what is the Night of Decree? The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months. The angels and the Spirit descend therein by permission of their Lord for every matter. Peace it is until the emergence of dawn.”
Due to the profound spiritual significance of Kadir Gecesi, Muslims seek to maximize their devotion and spiritual connection during this blessed night, striving to attain forgiveness, blessings, and guidance from Allah.
