عَنْهُ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ عَنْ زُرْعَةَ عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ لِي« صَلِّ فِي لَيْلَةِ إِحْدَى وَ عِشْرِينَ وَ لَيْلَةِ ثَلاَثٍ وَ عِشْرِينَ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فِي كُلِّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُمَا إِنْ قَوِيتَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ مِائَةَ رَكْعَةٍ سِوَى اَلثَّلاَثَ عَشْرَةَ وَ اِسْهَرْ فِيهِمَا حَتَّى تُصْبِحَ فَإِنَّهُ يُسْتَحَبُّ أَنْ تَكُونَ فِي صَلاَةٍ وَ دُعَاءٍ وَ تَضَرُّعٍ فَإِنَّهُ يُرْجَى أَنْ تَكُونَ لَيْلَةُ اَلْقَدْرِ فِي إِحْدَاهُمَا وَ« لَيْلَةُ اَلْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ»» فَقُلْتُ لَهُ كَيْفَ هِيَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ قَالَ« اَلْعَمَلُ فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ اَلْعَمَلِ فِي أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ وَ لَيْسَ فِي هَذِهِ اَلْأَشْهُرِ لَيْلَةُ اَلْقَدْرِ وَ هِيَ تَكُونُ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ« فِيهٰا يُفْرَقُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ حَكِيمٍ»» فَقُلْتُ وَ كَيْفَ ذَاكَ فَقَالَ «مَا يَكُونُ فِي اَلسَّنَةِ وَ فِيهَا يُكْتَبُ اَلْوَفْدُ إِلَى مَكَّةَ»
From him, from al-Hasan, from Zurah, from Sama’ah, who said: Imam al-Sadiq (a.s) said to me (Sama’ah): “Pray on the night of the twenty-first and the night of the twenty-third of the Month of Ramadan; in each of these nights, if you have the strength; one hundred rak’ahs, aside from the thirteen (regular) rak’ahs (meaning salat al layl). And stay awake during them until morning, for it is recommended that you remain in prayer, supplication, and humble entreaty, for it is hoped that one of them will be the Night of Qadr. And ‘The Night of Qadr is better than a thousand months.’” (Surah Al-Qadr 97:3). So I said to Imam (a.s): “How is it better than a thousand months?” Imam (a.s) said: “The deeds performed during it are better than deeds performed over a thousand months, and in those (other) months there is no ‘Night of Qadr’. It occurs only in the Month of Ramadan. And (as Allah (swt) says): ‘In it every wise matter is decreed.’” (Surah Al-Qadr 97:4) I asked: “And how is that?” Imam (a.s) said: “Whatever will occur in the year is decreed during it and in it is written those who will go as pilgrims to Mecca.”
