'''Laylat al-Qadr''' (Arabic: {{ia|لَیلَة القَدر}}; literal meaning: Night of the Measure, Night of the Destiny) is the night of the [[revelation]] of the [[Qur'an]] and the predestination of the coming year for everyone. In the Qur'an and [[hadith]]s, the Night of Qadr is said to be more valuable than one thousand months. It is the most virtuous night of the year and the night of divine mercy and the forgiveness of [[sin]]s, when [[angel]]s descend on the Earth. According to some [[Shiite]] hadiths, the angels present people's predestination for the coming year to the [[Imam]].
