Quran with SFH Series: Surah Al Qadr

Shaykh Fadhlalla Haeri

Life on earth is within space and time and receiving messages from the Unseen enables us to cross the conditionality of human consciousness to that of the soul (ruh). The disclosure of the Quran connects physical activities, people, groups, historical rises and falls of mankind with the heavenly abode of lights and delights. Like previous sacred books, the Quran reinforces their messages, and brought the message 'up to date' so to speak, i.e to enable human beings not to suffer and to be at one with Life itself through various practices like fasting etc. This message of the Quran emerged from timelessness into time, during the month of Ramadan to the Nabi (saw), and the search for this special night of Qadr (Night of Power) during the holy month of fasting in Ramadan continues to this day. We should express humility and utter gratitude for the light of the truth of the sacred message revealed, and practice presence in order to feel the ever-residing Grace of the Divine.

Translation by Shakir:

1. We have indeed revealed this (Message) in the Night of Power:
2. And what will explain to thee what the night of power is?
3. The Night of Power is better than a thousand months.
4. Therein come down the angels and the Spirit by Allah's permission, on every errand:
5. Peace!...This until the rise of morn!
