Laylat al-Qadr: Difference between revisions

According to [[verse]]s of [[Qur'an 97]], [[angel]]s and the Spirit descend on the Earth in the Night of Qadr,<ref>''Qur'an 97:4''.</ref> and according to some hadiths, they meet the Imam<ref>Wafā, ''Shab-i Qadr az manzar-i Qurān'', p. 87.</ref> to notify him on what is predestined for people in the coming year. Imam al-Baqir (a) said: "in this night, angels circumambulate around us, whereby we find out that it is the Night of Qadr."<ref>Wafā, ''Shab-i Qadr az manzar-i Qurān'', p. 87.</ref> In some other hadiths, Shi'as are recommended to draw upon this fact to present an argument for the necessity of [[Imamate]] and the rightfulness of Shiism, since, at each age, there must be an [[Infallible Imam]] whom angels notify about people's predestination.<ref>ʿĀbidīnzāda, ''Imām wa shab-i Qadr'', p. 62.</ref>
