Every Ramadan, millions of Muslims unite in mosques worldwide, pouring their hearts into extra worship during the sacred last ten nights. These nights are said to contain a special Night Of Power, also known as Laylatul Qadr, which many believe falls on the 27th night of Ramadan. Considering the religious significance of these days, many flock to the holiest sites in Makkah and Madinah to indulge in worship.
This year’s 27th night fell on a Friday night, April 5 2024, and millions of Muslims were seen worshipping in and outside the Two Holy Mosques.
