The Night of Divine Determination or Lailatul-Qadr is the most sacred of the nights in Islam and it has special significance to Mahdavia Community. The importance of this night can not be overemphasized as Qur'an, the Book of Allah, is revealed in this night. Also the Holy Book contains a Surah named as Suratul-Qadr in which importance of this night is described. The relevant Qur'anic verses are as follows: 

"Lo! We revealed it on Lailatul Qadr - the Night of Divine Determination.
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Night of Divine Determination is!
The Night of Divine Determination is better than a Thousand months.
The Angels and the Spirit descend therein, by the permission of their Lord, with all decrees.
(That night is) Peace until the rising of the dawn"
(Surah 97, V 1-5) "
