Thousands of worshippers gather in prayer at Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday night at mosques worldwide to observe Lailatul Qadr, also known as the Night of Power, a significant night in the Islamic calendar. This night, falling during the last ten days of Ramadan, holds significant spiritual importance for Muslims and is marked by special prayers, reflections, and seeking divine blessings.
Lailatul Qadr, often the night when the Quran was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), is considered one of the holiest nights of the year. According to Islamic tradition, it is the night when God's mercy, forgiveness, and blessings are abundant, and the prayers of the faithful are answered.AFP
