Here we explain why the Qadr Night has so much significance for the Muslim community across the world
when Prophet Muhammed, a native of Mecca in today’s Saudi Arabia, received the first divine word from Allah through the mediation of Archangel Gabriel, according to the Islamic faith.
“Qadr Night marks the night on which the Prophet Muhammad first received revelation, transforming him from a regular Meccan in Arabia into a Prophet to all mankind.
“That was an extraordinary experience. In their lives, people don’t see extraordinary entities emerge and tell them extraordinary things,” Yildirim tellsAt this crucial moment of the Prophet’s life, his wife Khadijah bint Khuwaylid, a woman with uncharacteristic sensibility, played a critical role in calming and assuring him that he had not lost his mental faculty.
The Qadr Night also ended the Prophet’s seclusion period in the Cave of Hira, where he stopped going after the first revelations. “The night is also referred to at the beginning of Surah 44 in the Quran as the night on which God determines all of the events of each year,” adds the Oxford scholar.
