It is hoped that one will obtain God’s pleasure and forgiveness in this world and the herefollowing. Muslim scholars have disagreed on the exact date, so it is recommended to seek it on the odd nights of the last 10 days. Reviving it holds great virtue, including forgiveness of past sins. A supplication that can be made is, “O Allah, You are pardoning and love to pardon, so pardon me.”

[القدر: 3-5]So it will be his share of this world and he will obtain the pleasure of God in this world and in the Herefollowing.
