Shawwal is the month that truly tests the Believers' ability to be steadfast. In Ramadan, the Muslim Ummah engaged purposefully in good deeds and endeavoured to spend the precious days and nights in obedience and remembrance. The same momentum cannot be maintained out of Ramadan, however a certain degree of steadfastness is required to remain on course for the year.

Laylatul Qadr (the Night of Honour) is described in the Qur'an as "better than a thousand months". Any action done with sincerity on this night is equivalent to doing that action for more than a thousand months. How much more one may ask? That is dependent on one's sincerity, devotion and hope from Allah Ta'ala. The principle of mercy is that Allah Ta'ala gives without measure. This exponential increase in reward is a speciality of this night.

The Night of Qadr represents the sheer Power, Might and Forgiveness of Allah Ta’ala. It appears but once a year with the opportunity to earn forgiveness and a phenomenal reward of more than 80 years of dedicated worship to one’s Creator.
