Night of Power - 2023 Penn Bowl

Question

Many Muslims believe that doing religious actions at this time brings greater rewards than doing it for 1,000 months. For 10 points each:

[10m] Name this time during the last 10 days of Ramadan when Muslims commemorate the angel Jibril revealing the Qur'an to Muhammad.

ANSWER: Night of Power [or Laylat al-Qadr; or Night of Destiny; or Night of Decree; or Night of Determination; or the Precious Night; or Laylat al-’Azama; or Night of the Greatness; or Laylat al-Sharaf; or Night of the Honor]

[10e] One hadith claims that Muhammad said that the rewards of communal prayer on this day of the week, a common Islamic practice, are equal to fasting and praying alone for one year.

ANSWER: Friday [or Jumu’ah]

[10h] Another hadith claims that fasting on this day atones for two years’ worth of non-cardinal sins. This second day of the Hajj commemorates when the verse of the Qur'an calling Islam perfected was revealed.

ANSWER: Day of ‘Arafah [or Yawm ‘Arafah; or Day of Arafat]
