إِنَّآ أَنزَلۡنَٰهُ فِي لَيۡلَةِ ٱلۡقَدۡرِ [١]

Indeed, We sent this [Qur’an] down on the Night of Decree[1].

وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا لَيۡلَةُ ٱلۡقَدۡرِ [٢]

How do you know what the Night of Decree is?

لَيۡلَةُ ٱلۡقَدۡرِ خَيۡرٞ مِّنۡ أَلۡفِ شَهۡرٖ [٣]

The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months.

تَنَزَّلُ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ وَٱلرُّوحُ فِيهَا بِإِذۡنِ رَبِّهِم مِّن كُلِّ أَمۡرٖ [٤]

On that night the angels and the Spirit [i.e., Gabriel] descend by their Lord’s permission with all decrees[2].

سَلَٰمٌ هِيَ حَتَّىٰ مَطۡلَعِ ٱلۡفَجۡرِ [٥]

It is all peace[3] until the break of dawn.
