Muslims across the country Saturday night observed Shab-e-Qadr or Lailatul Qadr, the night when the first verses of the holy Qur'an were revealed to prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH).
According to the holy Qur'an, the night is better than 1,000 months as the angels and the spirit descend therein by the permission of Almighty Allah with all decrees.
This is one of the holiest and most blessed nights, which is likely to occur
on one of the odd nights in the last ten days of Ramadan and most likely to be the 27th of the holy month.
The devout Muslims observed the occasion through nightlong special prayers, milad, Qur'an khwani, religious discussions at mosques and homes on this holy night.
Thousands of Muslim devotees also visited
graveyards to seek eternal peace for the departed souls of their near and dear ones.
In Rajshahi, the holy Lailatul Qadr was observed with due religious fervour and solemnity in the city and its adjacent areas on Saturday night.
Thousands of the Muslims offered 'nafal' prayers at mosques and homes and recited from the holy Qur'an in observance of one of the most meaningful nights of forgiveness, fortune, hopes and aspirations.
In Chittagong, the Lailatul Qadr which is considered as "the night of fortune and blessing" for the Muslims was observed in the port city and elsewhere in the district with Muslim devotees spent the whole night at mosques after Tarabi prayer and other religious places of worship by offering prayers, zikir, milad mahfils and reading holy Quran.
In Comilla, the holy Shab-e-Qadr was observed in the district Saturday night with due respect and religious fervour.
