Question

I want to know that what should we recite on the 27th night of laila tul qadar?

Answer

It is reported in a Hadith that Hazrat Aaisha (Radiyallahu Anha) onced asked Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) what should I recite if I find Laylatul Qadr (the night of power). Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said to her: Recite the following dua:

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
