Hadith 449
Hadith.2020 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: "On the night of the 19th of Month of Ramadan is the decree, on the night of the 21st is the judgment, and on the night of the 23rd is the confirmation of what will occur in the year until its similar time. And Allah (swt), the Mighty and Majestic, has the authority to do as He wills with His creation."
2020 - وَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : «فِي لَيْلَةِ تِسْعَ عَشْرَةَ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ اَلتَّقْدِيرُ وَ فِي لَيْلَةِ إِحْدَى وَ عِشْرِينَ اَلْقَضَاءُ وَ فِي لَيْلَةِ ثَلاَثٍ وَ عِشْرِينَ إِبْرَامُ مَا يَكُونُ فِي اَلسَّنَةِ إِلَى مِثْلِهَا وَ لِلَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ مَا يَشَاءُ فِي خَلْقِهِ».

Hadith 453
Hadith.2024 - Humran asked Abu Ja'far (as) about the saying of Allah (swt), the Almighty and Majestic: "Indeed, We sent it down on a blessed night" (Surah Ad-Dukhan 44:3). Imam (as) replied: "It is Laylatul Qadr, and it occurs every year in the Month of Ramadan, during its last ten nights. The Quran was revealed only on Laylatul Qadr. Allah (swt), the Almighty and Majestic, says: 'Therein every wise matter is made distinct' (Surah Ad-Dukhan 44:4)." Imam (as) continued: "On Laylatul Qadr, everything that will occur in that year, up to its equivalent time in the following year, is decreed — whether good or evil, obedience or disobedience, life or death, or sustenance. Whatever is decreed and decided on that night is inevitable. Yet, Allah (swt), the Almighty and Majestic, has the will (to alter decrees as He pleases)." Humran then asked: "Laylatul Qadr is better than a thousand months — what does this mean?" Imam (as) replied: "Righteous deeds on Laylatul Qadr are better than those performed over a thousand months. Were it not for Allah (swt), Blessed and Exalted, multiplying the rewards for believers, they would not reach this merit. However, Allah (swt), the Almighty and Majestic, multiplies good deeds for them."
2024 - وَ سَأَلَ حُمْرَانُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : عَنْ قَوْلِ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ «۝ إِنّٰا أَنْزَلْنٰاهُ فِي لَيْلَةٍ مُبٰارَكَةٍ ۝» قَالَ «هِيَ لَيْلَةُ اَلْقَدْرِ وَ هِيَ فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فِي اَلْعَشْرِ اَلْأَوَاخِرِ وَ لَمْ يُنْزَلِ اَلْقُرْآنُ إِلاَّ فِي لَيْلَةِ اَلْقَدْرِ قَالَ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ: «۝ فِيهٰا يُفْرَقُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ حَكِيمٍ ۝» » قَالَ «يُقَدَّرُ فِي لَيْلَةِ اَلْقَدْرِ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ يَكُونُ فِي تِلْكَ اَلسَّنَةِ إِلَى مِثْلِهَا مِنْ قَابِلٍ مِنْ خَيْرٍ أَوْ شَرٍّ أَوْ طَاعَةٍ أَوْ مَعْصِيَةٍ أَوْ مَوْلُودٍ أَوْ أَجَلٍ أَوْ رِزْقٍ فَمَا قُدِّرَ فِي تِلْكَ اَللَّيْلَةِ وَ قُضِيَ فَهُوَ اَلْمَحْتُومُ وَ لِلَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فِيهِ اَلْمَشِيئَةُ» قَالَ قُلْتُ لَهُ « لَيْلَةُ اَلْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ» أَيَّ شَيْءٍ عَنَى بِذَلِكَ فَقَالَ «اَلْعَمَلَ اَلصَّالِحَ فِي لَيْلَةِ اَلْقَدْرِ وَ لَوْ لاَ مَا يُضَاعِفُ اَللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ مَا بَلَغُوا وَ لَكِنَّ اَللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يُضَاعِفُ لَهُمُ اَلْحَسَنَاتِ.

Hadith.2026 - Ali ibn Abi Hamzah narrated from Abu Basir, who narrated from Abu Abdullah (as), who said
"The Torah was revealed on the sixth of Month of Ramadan, the Injil (Gospel) was revealed on the twelfth of Month of Ramadan, the Zabur (Psalms) was revealed on the eighteenth of Month of Ramadan, and the Quran [Al-Furqan] was revealed on Laylatul Qadr."
2026 - وَ رَوَى عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
«نَزَلَتِ اَلتَّوْرَاةُ فِي سِتٍّ مَضَيْنَ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ نَزَلَ اَلْإِنْجِيلُ فِي اِثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ مَضَتْ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ نَزَلَ اَلزَّبُورُ فِي لَيْلَةِ ثَمَانَ عَشْرَةَ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ نَزَلَ اَلْقُرْآنُ [ اَلْفُرْقَانُ ] فِي لَيْلَةِ اَلْقَدْرِ ».

Hadith.2029 - It is narrated from Ali ibn Abi Hamzah who said
I was with Abu Abdullah (as) when Abu Basir said to him, "May I be your ransom! Which night is the one in which one can hope for what is hoped for?" Imam (as) replied: "It is on the night of the 21st or the 23rd." Abu Basir asked: "What if I cannot perform worship on both nights?" Imam (as) said: "How easy are two nights for what you seek!" Abu Basir then said: "Sometimes we see the crescent moon in our area, but we receive news that it was seen differently in another place." Imam (as) said: "How easy are four nights for what you seek in them!" Abu Basir asked: "May I be your ransom! Is the 23rd night the night of Al-Juhani?" Imam (as) replied: "That is said." Abu Basir further asked: "May I be your ransom! Sulayman ibn Khalid narrated that on the 19th night, the pilgrims' delegation is recorded." Imam (as) said: "O Abu Muhammad! The pilgrims' delegation is written on Laylatul Qadr, along with deaths, trials, provisions, and what will occur until the same time in the following year. So seek it on the 21st and 23rd nights. Pray 100 units (rak'ah) on each of these nights and spend them in worship until dawn, if you are able, and perform ghusl (ritual purification) on these nights." Abu Basir asked: "What if I cannot stand for prayer?" Imam (as) said: "Then pray while sitting." Abu Basir said: "What if I cannot do even that?" Imam (as) said: "Then pray while lying on your bed." Abu Basir asked: "What if I cannot do that either?" Imam (as) replied: "It is fine for you to take a brief nap at the beginning of the night. The gates of the heavens are opened in the Month of Ramadan, the devils are chained, and the deeds of the believers are accepted. What a blessed Month of Ramadan is! In the time of the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), it was called 'the month of sustenance.'"

I asked Abu Abdullah (as) about the nights in the Month of Ramadan that are hoped to be special. Imam (as) replied: "The 19th, 21st, and 23rd." I asked: "What if a person is overtaken by weakness or illness? Which night should be relied upon from these?" Imam (as) replied: "The 23rd."

Hadith.2031 - In a narration from Abdullah ibn Bukayr, from Zurara, from one of the two (Imam Al-Baqir (as) or Imam Al-Sadiq (as), peace be upon them), he said
I asked him about the nights in the Month of Ramadan in which it is recommended to perform ghusl (ritual purification). Imam (as) replied: "The 19th night, the 21st night, and the 23rd night." Imam continued: "The 23rd night is the night of Al-Juhani. His story is that he said to the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), 'My home is far from Medina. Command me to dedicate a specific night to enter [for worship].' So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) instructed him to dedicate the 23rd night."
2031 - وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
