It is reported in Hadith that whoever keeps awake on the nights of Qadr shall have his/her sins forgiven, even if they equal the number of the stars in the heaven.
It is also recommended to recite hundred rak`aat (i.e. 50 namaz of 2 rak`aat each) on these nights. The practice of performing Qadha prayers on these nights has no origin in the books of Hadith. However, it is emphasized to fulfil the Qadha prayers as soon as it is possible, and some believers use this opportunity to perform Qadha prayers of six days ( 6 x 17 =102 rak`aat).
Open the Qur'an and say:
In the name of Allah the Beneficent the Merciful.
O Allah bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad.
O Allah I ask You,
for the sake of Your revealed Book,
and what is in it, and in it is Your greatest name,
and (all) Your beautiful names,
and what is feared and hoped for,
make me amongst those whom You have saved from the fire.
Place the Qur'an on the head and say:
O Allah,
for the sake of this Qur'an,
for the sake of the one You sent with it,
for the sake of every believer You have praised in it,
and for the sake of Your right over them,
for none is more aware of Your right over them than Yourself.

In the name of Allah the Beneficent the Merciful.
O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad.
O Allah, I am, on this night, a very humble servant of Yours.
I have no control over gains and losses for myself,

f) Du'a no.4 for the Night of Qadr
The effect of the Du'as recited on the night of Qadr can have a tremendous impact on the coming year.
What we ask for on the night of decree can change our lives. That is why believers are told to be aware of
the significance of this night, and spend the entire night in worship and prayers. Allah has offered us a
chance to have a say in our fate, and such a chance will not come again until the following year.
In the name of Allah the Beneficent the Merciful.
O Allah bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad.
O Allah,
let it be that when You decree and ordain
from the matters which are certain,
that when You distinguish in the matters which are wise
on the night of Qadr,
in the decree which cannot be reversed nor changed,
that You write me amongst those who will go
for pilgrimage (hajj) to Your holy House,
whose Hajj is approved,
whose efforts are appreciated,
whose sins are forgiven,
whose evil deeds have been pardoned.
And from what You decree and ordain,
let my life be lengthened,
and increase my sustenance,
and . . . (ask for your wishes)

This Du'a refers to Sura adDukhan, verse 4 which says : Therein You make distinct every wise affair.
Thus we pray for what we want Allah to place in our decree. The affairs which Allah will decree on
Laylatul Qadr are described as wise. The word is also taken to mean strong, firm.
