2. وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا لَيْلَةُ ٱلْقَدْرِ

   And what can make you know what is the Night of Decree?

3. لَيْلَةُ ٱلْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ

   The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months.

4. تَنَزَّلُ ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ وَٱلرُّوحُ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِم مِّن كُلِّ أَمْرٍ

   The angels and the Spirit [i.e., Gabriel] descend therein by permission of their Lord for every matter.

5. سَلَـٰمٌ هِىَ حَتَّىٰ مَطْلَعِ ٱلْفَجْرِ

   Peace it is until the emergence of dawn.
