20-7 (The compiler of the book narrated) that his father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Muhammad ibn Yahya al-Attar quoted Muhammad ibn al-Hussein ibn Abil-Khat’tab, on the authority of Ibn Faz’zal, on the authority of Abi Jamileh, on the authority of Refa’at that Aba Abdullah as-Sadiq (MGB) said, “
The Night of Power is the beginning of the next year and the end of the current year. Our elders - may God be pleased with them - all agree that the Night of Power is the night of the 23rd of the month of Ramazan. On that night ritual bathing may be performed from the beginning of the night up until the end of the night.”

ليلة القدر هي أول السنة وهي آخرها. واتفق مشايخنا رضي الله عنهم على أنها ليلة ثلاث وعشرين من شهر رمضان والغسل فيها من أول الليل وهو يجزي إلى آخره
