DHAKA, Mar 15, 2026 (BSS) - Prime Minister Tarique Rahman has greeted the country's people and the Muslim Ummah on the occasion of the holy Lailatul Qadr (the Night of Decree).
"On the occasion of the holy Lailatul Qadr, I extend my heartfelt greetings and mubarakbad to all Muslims around the world, including the countrymen," he said in a message issued today.
The prime minister said the Lailatul Qadr is a glorious and blessed night, while the Holy Quran was descended on this glorious night of the holy month of Ramadan.
Noting that Almighty Allah has declared that this night is better than thousand months, he said the night brings a message of welfare, forgiveness and mercy for mankind.
Tarique Rahman said this night creates a unique opportunity to gain proximity to Almighty Allah through prayers, repentance and supplication.
The Ramadan is a month of restraint, self-purification, tolerance and awakening of human values, he said.
The premier said the lessons of the Lailatul Qadr inspire all to establish peace, justice and welfare in their individual, social and national lives.
"Let us all get involved in prayers more to attain the pleasure of Almighty Allah and dedicate ourselves to the welfare of humanity by understanding the significance of the night," he said.
Tarique Rahman prayed to Allah Almighty that infinite mercy and blessings of the holy Lailatul Qadr are poured in on all.
May Allah guide the country and its people to the path of progress, peace, harmony and welfare, he said.
"May the glory of the holy Lailatul Qadr bring peace, harmony and welfare to our lives," he added.
