Subject: [Masjid Tucson] Submission weekly reminder

In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

** The Night of Destiny starts sunset 27 April 2022 (Wednesday) in USA, God willing. Please see https://masjidtucson.org/submission/practices/ramadan/#dates for more **

Peace be upon you,

In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
[Quran 97:1-5] We revealed it in the Night of Destiny.*
 How awesome is the Night of Destiny!
 The Night of Destiny is better than a thousand months.
 The angels and the Spirit descend therein, by their Lord's leave, to carry out every command.
 Peaceful it is until the advent of the dawn.
*97:1 The Quran was placed into Muhammad's soul on the 27th night of Ramadan, 13 B.H. (Before Hijrah). See also 17:1, 44:3, 53:1-18, and Appendix 28.


Ramadan is the month during which the Quran was revealed, providing guidance for the people, clear teachings, and the statute book. The Night of Destiny is a wonderful opportunity to remember God, glorify Him for guiding us and thank Him.

Only God guides (Quran 1:6, 28:56). Guidance is a rare blessing as most humans choose to disbelieve or to set up idols beside God. It's an extremely valuable blessing we cannot take for granted.

May God help us remember and commemorate Him, grow our souls and draw closer to Him all the time, just as we try to do on the Night of Destiny.
