[28].Surah Al-Qasas [The Narration]
Ayat 20. And there came a man running, from the farthest end of the city. He said: “O Musa (Moses)! Verily, the chiefs are taking counsel together about you, to kill you, so escape. Truly, I am to you those who give sincere advice.”
Tafseer of Surah Al-Qasas (The Narration) Ayat 20. And there came a man, running, from the furthest end of the City. He said: “O Moses! the Chiefs are taking counsel together about thee, to slay thee: so, get thee away, for I do give thee sincere advice.” Apparently, rumors had reached the Palace, a Council had been held, and
the death of Moses had been decreed!
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Aisha (May Allah be pleased with her) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) used to observe Itikaf in the last ten days of Ramadan and say, “Seek Lailat-ul-Qadr (Night of Decree) in the odd nights out of the last ten nights of Ramadan.”
[Al-Bukhari Book 03, Chapter 32, Hadith # 234]
Lesson : We learn from this Hadith that Lailat-ul-Qadr occurs on any of the five odd nights – 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th and 29th – of the last ten nights of Ramadan. Its exact date has not been revealed for the reason that people keep themselves awake for prayer for a larger number of nights. Had its date been fixed, people would have kept awake for prayer only on that night. There is a general belief among the scholars that it is fixed on the 27th night of Ramadan. But this is not correct. Hadith do not confirm this view.
