In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Verily, We have sent it (this Qur'an) down in the night of Al-Qadr (Decree).
Arabic
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إنا أنزلناه في ليلة القدر
Arabic, with marks
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
And what will make you know what the night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is?
Arabic
وما أدراك ما ليلة القدر
Arabic, with marks
لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
The night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is better than a thousand months (i.e. worshipping Allah in that night is better than worshipping Him a thousand months, i.e. 83 years and 4 months).
