(Historically: The Decree / The Destiny / other meanings are - precise measurements

(I.e. amount or extent), value, gravity or greatness)

(This is the 97th Surah with 5 verses.

This Surah is traditionally translated as describing a majestic night, presumably in the month of Ramadan, when it is believed that Al Qur'an was revealed to the Rasul, although most commentators fail to explain whether it was a nightly revelation, or a book completed over a period of 23 years, which is considered to be the period of the revelation of the Qur‘an.

There are conjectures and Hadith based attempts at explanation with significant contradiction in each version. As a result of these conjectures, we attempt to devote our attention to a nightly set of ritual prayers rather than making an attempt to find life long guidance from this banner, from our Rabb.

Again, going to the pure linguistic method, that we have adopted to explain the words and letters of this Book, we again see the magnificent message, showing us that this is a book of guidance and principle, for the humanity, instead of anything else that we might want to think of it as. It thus invites us to this banner from the Almighty, rather than associating ourselves with the self created idols in any form. Humans are clearly asked to guide themselves to it, so they can have dominion and autonomy giving them safety, immunity and freedom from faults, and protection from falling into imperfections. This banner will create a separating influence on people in a state of fatigue from corruption, into a lively, and a rejoicing effect, upon the entire humanity.)

Surah 97: 1 إِنَّا أَنزَلْنَاهُ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ

Truly, Haven’t I accommodated, given refuge, fed and nourished you well; even when you are integrated and associated with servants of certain idols. The sufficient for you is the standard and banner from me.

Surah 97: 2 وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ

And what grievous calamity befell you, despite knowing that you do show off and indulge in hypocrisy; and become integrated and associated with servants of certain idols. The sufficient for you is the standard and banner from me.

Surah 97: 3 لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ

For ones integrated and associated with servants of certain idols. The sufficient for you is my standard and banner. Hasten you, to my standard and banner. In it you will find repair of your short comings. Easily visible and shining, like a full moon, is my standard and banner.

Surah 97: 4 تَنَزَّلُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَالرُّوحُ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِم مِّن كُلِّ أَمْرٍ

Not prevented, you walk with agility to bounties and munificence. It will give you dominion, autonomy and right of possession. As well as make you cool and pleasant in mind, by becoming brisk, lively and rejoiced by it. In it is knowledge that you are uninformed of; from your Sustainer, Maintainer and Fosterer for all deprivation of effectiveness and weakness. You must direct your course towards my standard and banner to be tended and repaired.

Surah 97: 5 سَلَامٌ هِيَ حَتَّى مَطْلَعِ الْفَجْرِ

This is safety, immunity, freedom from faults and imperfections. This is my call, for all the ones in a state of fatigue due to the disease from these corruptions; accept the wide separating influence from these corruptions gained from my standard and banner.
