Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ عَبْدَةَ، وَعَاصِمٍ، عَنْ زِرٍّ، قَالَ:، ، سَأَلْتُ أُبَيًّا، قُلْتُ: أَبَا الْمُنْذِرِ، إِنَّ أَخَاكَ ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ يَقُولُ: مَنْ يَقُمِ الْحَوْلَ، يُصِبْ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ فَقَالَ: يَرْحَمُهُ اللهُ، لَقَدْ عَلِمَ أَنَّهَا فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ، وَأَنَّهَا لَيْلَةُ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ. قَالَ: وَحَلَفَ. قُلْتُ: وَكَيْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ ذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ: بِالْعَلَامَةِ أَوْ بِالْآيَةِ الَّتِي أُخْبِرْنَا بِهَا: "أَنَّ الشَّمْسَ تَطْلُعُ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ لَا شُعَاعَ لَهَا " (١)،

Translation

English translation

Zirr says that I asked Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) that your brother Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says that whoever stands (in prayer) the whole year can attain Laylat al-Qadr? Ubayy (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: May Allah's mercy descend upon him, he knows that Laylat al-Qadr is in the month of Ramadan and it is on the twenty-seventh night (but he wants to keep it hidden from people so that they do not rely solely on it). Then he swore an oath (by the One who revealed the Book to Muhammad, peace be upon him, Laylat al-Qadr is on the twenty-seventh night of Ramadan). I asked, (O Abu al-Mundhir!) how do you know this? He replied: By the sign that has been told to us, that on the morning after this night, when the sun rises, it has no rays.
