“Laitul al-Qodar is only devoted to the people of Prophet Muhammad Sallahu Alahi Wassalam and not given to other people before the Prophet Muhammad. Starting from the Prophet Adam to the Prophet Isa, “said Imaam Yakhsyallah in tausyah Fajr on Tuesday.

“With our thanks for the greatest pleasure with the existence of that Laylat al-Qodar, even though it is not enough to match it or match the night,” he added.

He explained Laylat al-Qadr is also a very glorious night and no one could match it, and Allah doubled the deeds done that night.

“There is no night that is more important than laitul qodar,” he said.
