On 97:3–5
لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْر﴿٣﴾تَنَزَّلُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَالرُّوحُ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِم مِّن كُلِّ أَمْرٍ﴿٤﴾سَلَامٌ هِيَ حَتَّىٰ مَطْلَعِ الْفَجْرِ
97:3-5 “The Night of Majesty is better than a thousand months” A thousand months are equal to eighty three years and four months, leaving about seventeen years to complete a century. This verse carries the same message as the saying of the Holy Prophet (pbuh) that a Divine Reformer shall appear among the Muslims at the commencement of every century. The Night of Majesty at the advent of every Reformer is actually a branch or a Zill of that very Night of Majesty, which was granted to the Holy Prophet (pbuh), the dignity of which is very high. “Peace” ( سَلَام) is the distinctive mark of the Majestic Night. This peace comes to the hearts of the true devotes of Allâh. It is that tranquillity of mind, which enables them to receive Divine blessings and wisdom.
