Ramadan: Laylat al-Qadr & The Last 10 Nights

ʿĀ’ishah (raḍiy Allāhu ʿanhā) said, “The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would combine both prayer and sleep (at night) during the first 20 (days of Ramaḍān). But when the last ten days arrived, he would exert himself in worship and stay away from his wives” (Aḥmad).

The last ten nights of Ramaḍān are for intensive worship. Just as the Messenger ﷺ used to cut himself off from people and perform iʿtikāf in the masjid, we too should try to do the same. We should use use this time to connect deeply with Allah (ʿazza wa jall) and avoid wasting precious time.

This book explains the virtue of Laylat al-Qadr and gives practical tips on how to maximise from it.
