when does laylatul gadr end

Laylatul Qadr ends at Fajr (true dawn) ; the special time runs from Maghrib (sunset) until Fajr of that same night.

🕊️ When Does Laylatul Qadr End?

Core timing (short, clear answer)

For each potential Laylatul Qadr night:

• It begins at Maghrib (sunset).

• It ends at Fajr (dawn) the next morning.

So once the Fajr adhan begins (or true dawn enters according to your local prayer timetable), the time of Laylatul Qadr has ended for that night.

Why this timing?

• Islamic “nights” run from sunset to dawn , not from midnight to midnight.

• Laylatul Qadr is described as a “night” of immense blessing, so its worship window is that whole night span.

A simple way to think of it:

“As long as the night is still here and Fajr hasn’t entered, the door of Laylatul Qadr for that night is still open.”

What about the exact date?

Scholars agree we don’t know the exact date for sure.

Common points:

• It is in the last 10 nights of Ramadan.

• Most strongly sought on the odd nights (21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, 29th).

• Many communities especially focus on the 27th night.

But regardless of which night it actually falls on, the end time is always the same pattern: sunset → Fajr.

Mini “practice guide” for the night

If you’re up late wondering, “Is it too late?” — if Fajr still hasn’t started , you’re still in time. You can:

1. Pray voluntary prayers (nafl/qiyam).

2. Make lots of dua , especially the famous dua of forgiveness.

3. Read Qur’an, send salawat, and do dhikr until just before Fajr.

Even a sincere last 10–15 minutes before Fajr can count and be very valuable.
