And on that night...

We revealed it in the Night of Decree.
Inna anzalnahu fee laylatialqadri
انا انزلنه فى ليلة القدر

And do you know what is the Night of Decree?
Wama adraka ma laylatualqadri
وما ادرىك ما ليلة القدر

The Night of Decree is better than one thousand months.
Laylatu alqadri khayrun min alfi shahrin
ليلة القدر خير من الف شهر

The Angels and the Spirit come down in it by their Lord's leave to carry out every matter.
Tanazzalu almala-ikatu waalrroohufeeha bi-ithni rabbihim min kulli amrin
تنزل الملئكة والروح فيها باذن ربهم
من كل امر

It is peaceful until the coming of dawn.
Salamun hiya hatta matlaAAialfajri
سلم هى حتى مطلع الفجر

[The Holy Quran: Al-Qadr-97]
