About this day
Beyond the three nights the Twelver sources name, the eves of the 19th, 21st and 23rd, some printed calendars carry two more, and this is the later of them. Communities differ over whether it is kept, so the Centre lists it as an additional night and never as Laylat al-Qadr itself.
Communities differ on this
Families at the Centre do not all keep this on the same day. The date above is the one the Centre observes; it is not a ruling on anyone else’s.
