LAHORE (Dunya News) - Shab-e-Qadr, a night that is considered to be equal to praying for 1000 months, is being observed tonight (night between Monday and Tuesday) with religious zeal and fervour.

According to Islamic scholars, Shab-e-Qadr falls on night of 27 Ramazan but it is better to search it in odd nights of sacred month’s last Ashra.

The night has special significance for the Muslims as angels come down on the earth as per order of Allah stay there till dawn of the day.

The locals have decorated mosques, houses and streets with colorful pennants and buntings whereas the faithful also organized several gatherings and Mahafil-e-Naat to achieve the Almighty’s forgiveness and blessings in the world and the life hereafter.

The religious scholars will also throw light on importance of the night and highlight the teachings of Islam and life of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) so that the followers could lead their lives according to Holy Quran and Sunnah.
