The Translation of Surah 097 Al-Qadr (The Night of Decree) From Noble Quran English Languange Version Podcast Edition.
Al-Qadr ("Power or Fate") is the 97th chapter (surah) of the Qur'an with 5 verses (ayah). It is a Meccan surah which celebrates the night when the first revelation of what would become The Noble Qur'an was sent down. The surah has been so designated after the word al-qadr in the first verse. It is mainly about power.
This surah describes Laylat al-Qadr, the "Night of the abundant portion of blessings" in Ramadan on which Muslims believe the Qur'an was first revealed. The "Spirit" mentioned in verse 4 is commonly interpreted as referring to the angel Jibreel (Gabriel). The "peace" referred to is called by Mujahid "security in which Shaytan (Iblis) cannot do any evil or any harm", while Ibn Kathir quotes Ash-Sha'bi as saying that it refers to the angels greeting the people in the mosques throughout the night.
Laylat al-Qadr occurs during an odd-numbered night within the last ten days of Ramadan, but its exact date is uncertain; due to the promises made in the sura and in various hadith. Muslims consider it a particularly good time for prayer, supplication, and repentance to God. This event marks the descent of the first revelation of the Quran to Earth.
