Laylat al-Qadr Night Calculator 2027
Laylat al-Qadr Night Calculator
Calculate the last ten nights from the Ramadan start date you follow.
| Night | Begins after Maghrib on | Odd night |
|---|
“Seek it in the odd nights of the last ten nights of Ramadan.” — Sahih al-Bukhari 2017. In the Islamic day the night comes first, so the 27th night begins after Maghrib on the 26th day.
Finding the odd nights
The Prophet ﷺ said: “Seek Laylat al-Qadr in the odd nights of the last ten nights of Ramadan” (Sahih al-Bukhari 2017). Because the Islamic day begins at sunset, the “27th night” starts after Maghrib on the 26th day — the calculator prints the corresponding projected Gregorian evening for each night based on the first-fast date you enter.
How to use it
- Confirm the first fast date and whether your Ramadan is 29 or 30 days.
- The table lists nights 21–30, the evening each one begins, and marks the odd nights.
A note on the 27th
Many companions favoured the 27th night, and Ubayy ibn Ka‘b swore it was that night (Sahih Muslim 762), but the sound position is that it moves — which is why the last ten nights are all sought.

Night numbering is easy to misread
In the Islamic calendar the night begins at Maghrib before the corresponding daytime date. That means the 27th night begins after Maghrib at the end of the 26th fasting day. The calculator shows the evening date explicitly to avoid an off-by-one error.
Do not reduce the last ten to one date
Authentic reports direct Muslims to seek Laylat al-Qadr in the last ten nights, with special emphasis on the odd nights. The tool lists the sequence rather than declaring one night guaranteed.
Why the length selector matters
The last ten nights are numbered from the actual Ramadan month being followed. A 29-day month changes which daytime dates form the final ten compared with a 30-day planning assumption. The calculator therefore exposes the month length instead of hiding it.
Cross-check the first fast
A one-day error in the Ramadan start shifts every odd-night civil date. Confirm the start date used by your community before printing or sharing the list.
Frequently asked questions
Which night is Laylat al-Qadr in 2027?
It is not fixed. With a 30-day Ramadan from 8 February 2027, the 27th night begins after Maghrib on 5 March 2027; strive through all the odd nights.
If Ramadan is 29 days, do the nights shift?
Yes. Choose 29 days in the tool and the last ten nights recalculate automatically.
