1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Lo! We revealed it on the Night of Predestination.

1 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).

2 Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Night of Power is!

2 And what will make you know what the night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is?

3 The Night of Power is better than a thousand months.

3 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).

4 The angels and the Spirit descend therein, by the permission of their Lord, with all decrees.

4 Therein descend the angels and the Ruh [Jibril (Gabril)] by Allah's Permission with all Decrees,

5 (The night is) Peace until the rising of the dawn.

5 (All that night), there is Peace (and Goodness from Allah to His believing slaves) until the appearance of dawn.
