Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : I mean, the one who stood on the Night of Decree, and it was truly the Night of Decree, and he stood as we do, reading the Qur'an and making supplication, does he attain the worship of... the Sunnah?
The student : And four months.
The Shaykh : ... This is his answer: he attains the amount of good in his prayer.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : As for the value itself, that requires a complete person.
The questioner : Ah, very well.
The Shaykh : ... The forgiveness that is attached to, for example, the prayer.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : The prayers are expiations for what is between them.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : And from Friday to Friday, and from Ramadan to Ramadan, and so on, everything is according to its measure.
The questioner : Ah, even my Shaykh, the one who prays in the Haram, [gets] a hundred thousand on the same scale.
The Shaykh : ... .
The questioner : ... He prays and makes supplication on a night other than the Night of Decree, and of course, there is reward and recompense, but the best and heaviest is with the recitation and prayer. So what is the difference between this night and the Night of Decree that Brother Abu Abdullah asked about?
The Shaykh : The strength of the hope in the answer.
The questioner : I mean, there is no special status... .
The Shaykh : The special status is the strength of the hope for acceptance from one side, and the virtue that Abu Abdullah asked about. I answered him, and the answer is understood.
