3 Preface إِنّا أَنزَلناهُ في لَيلَةٍ مُبارَكَةٍ ۚ إِنّا كُنّا مُنذِرينَYusuf AliWe sent it down during a Blessed Night:1 for We (ever) wish to warn (against Evil).Usually taken to be a night in the month of Ramadān, say the 23rd, 25th, or 27th night of that month. It is referred to as the Night of Power in 97:1-2. See also 2:185. But perhaps we need not fix it literally by the calendar. The night that a Message descends from God is indeed a blessed night like a day of rain for a parched land.
