The holy Lailatul Qadr, the most blessed night for Muslims, will be observed across the country on Thursday night with due solemnity and religious fervour.
Muslim devotees will spend the night seeking divine blessings for peace and progress of the country as well as the Muslim Ummah.
According to the holy Quran, this night is superior to a thousand ones as the Quran was revealed to the greatest Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh) on this glorified night to show mankind the path of worldly and eternal emancipation.
Devout Muslims usually spend the night offering special prayers, recitation from the holy Quran, holding milad mahfils, zikr and other religious rituals at mosques and in their houses.
They also visit graveyards to seek divine blessings for the departed souls of their near and dear ones.
President M Abdul Hamid and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina greeted the countrymen and the Muslim Ummah across the world on the occasion.
Newspapers published special articles while state-run Bangladesh Betar, Bangladesh Television and private television channels are airing special programmes highlighting the significance of Lailatul Qadr.
