Just for Ramadan-info on the good habits for fasting and Laylatul Qadr Night of Power

Just for Ramadan

Muslims all around the world are coming close to the end of their fasting month of Ramadan. In these last ten days, Muslims are seeking something special. The Holy Qur’an, the book revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was given as a mercy to all people, black, white, brown, male, female, rich, poor, old, and young.
The first verses were revealed in this fasting month during one of the nights of the last ten days. This night is called “ 'Lailat ul-Qadr' or 'Night of Power'… a very important occasion in the history of Islam and in our personal lives.

How is this night special? “The Night of Power is better for you to live, to experience and to enjoy than one thousand months of your personal life. Even if you were to live one thousand months (83.3 years) with sincerity, dedication, and sacrifices and with good intentions and deeds, the Night of Power is still far better for you to live and to enjoy.”

What should you do during this night? Abu Huraira reports that the Prophet (PBUH) said: "Anybody who gets up to offer the nafl (voluntary prayer) on the Blessed night due to deep sense of his faith and with self scrutiny will have his past sins remitted." (Bukhari & Muslim). One should simply and sincerely say the following supplication: "O Allah! You are forgiving and you love forgiveness, so you too forgive me.” (Transliteration) Allahumma In-Naka a'fuwn, tuhibul'afwa fa'fo 'anni (Related by Tirmidhi)

When is Lailat ul-Qadr? It has been reported to be during one of the odd numbered nights of the last ten days of Ramadhan, i.e. 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th or 29th. It has been emphasized that it is most likely to be the 27th night. However, since it is not clear, it is a good idea to seek it out on more than one night in hopes that one’s efforts will catch the right night. Some of the signs of this special night have been reported as: the sun rises early in the morning without rays; rain may fall either during the night or during the day of that night; during night the sky will be lightly foggy; the sky will be slightly lighted without reflections and without rays; the angels and Gabriel all descend down onto earth for many purposes.
