Transcript:
When we are in the presence of the Qur'an, when we recite the Qur'an, we should consider this as a letter from a close friend. And we should earnestly read the Qur'an like we would read a personal letter. If you had a close friend who sent you a personal letter, how would you read that letter? You would read it frequently, and you would read it earnestly. And you would consider yourself as the sole audience and the one being addressed, and you wouldn't read other people's stories in that letter.

Sometimes another letter may reach us, and we read that letter. We only get information from this letter. [For example], we know that A wrote to B, or what Zayd wrote to Amr. It has nothing to do with us personally, we are just informed of the situation. There are other times when a close and loving friend writes us an important letter, and it is a personal letter that others are not informed of. We would treat this like an important letter. We would read it repeatedly, and we would read it with sincerity. We would try to grasp its secrets.

Qur'an is also a letter like this that has come from a close Friend. He loves us and we are His beloved. And if He didn't love us, He wouldn't have sent us a personal letter. He wouldn't have sent us the best, purest, most perfect caliph (S). There never was and there never will be a human being more superior than the Prophet (S). God sent us this Messenger (S).

And He has recounted the biography of our lives in this Qur'an. When we study and recite the Qur'an, it is not a book of stories or history. It is a book of light and guidance. And it is not the story of others, but it is the biography of our own lives. It is in this context that we are completely listening to the words of God. And we also speak to Him. He is very close to us. He knows our secrets, and He is the trustworthy Confidant of our secrets. He will make us conscious and aware.

9 PM EST / 8 PM CST / 6 PM PST

Imam Al-Baqir was asked about the merit of this night. He said, “It is the most night with the most merit after the Night of Qadr. In this night, Allah grants His servants His grace and forgives them out of His bounty. Therefore, you should strive hard to draw close to Allah, the Exalted, in this night, for it is a night in which He has sworn that He will not reject anyone who asks as long as he does not ask for [something leading to] a sinful act. It is the night that Allah has chosen for us, the Ahlul Bayt, just as He has chosen the Qadr Night for our Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family). You should therefore strive hard in supplicating to Him and praising Him...” (Misbah al-Mujtahid, v. 2, p. 831)

Join families of believers in North America and beyond for a communal event to commemorate this sacred night together! Insha'Allah we will be performing some of the A'maal compiled for the night cited in Muhaddith Abbas Qummi's Mafatih al-Jinan, including Dua Kumayl, Ziyarah of Imam al-Husayn, and the Salawaat of the Month of Sha'ban.
