YOGYAKARTA – Many Muslims are wondering when the night of the Quran 2026 will arrive. This moment of the descent of the Quran is always the most awaited moment to improve the quality of our prayers.
According to the calendar calculation, this special night usually falls on the 17th day of Ramadan. It’s best to start preparing now so you don’t miss the blessing that only comes once a year.
When is the night of the revelation of the Quran in 2026?
This year, the initial determination of Ramadan in Indonesia was different. This was evident in the timing of the Nuzulul Quran meeting in the midst of the community. Muhammadiyah has determined that the start of the fast falls on Wednesday February 18, 2026.
In the meantime, the government has determined the start of Ramadan on Thursday, February 19, 2026. So, when is Nuzulul Quran 2026 due? As reported by VOI on the Baznas website, here are the details:
Muhammadiyah version: falls on Friday March 6, 2026. Government and NU version: falls on Saturday March 7, 2026.
This difference is common in Indonesia. Well, the most important thing is how you fill the night with sincerity.
The meaning of the event of the Nuzulul Quran for Muslims
The Nuzulul Quran is a major event where the first revelation was sent to the Prophet Muhammad. As Muslims believe, the angel Jibril came to him in the cave of Hira to convey the verse Al-Alaq 1-5.
This event is the starting point of the Prophet’s prophecy. This is the time of spreading the light of Islam throughout the world.
History has recorded the great spiritual value of this night. It is no surprise that the mosques are always full of akbar classes and tabligh every year.

The main practices in the evening of the Nuzulul Quran
In the meantime, there are three main practices that are highly recommended to fulfill this glorious night, including:
Increase the tadarus of the Quran
This is the best way to respect the descent of the sacred books. Imam Nawawi explains that this night is full of blessings because it is directly linked to divine revelation.
Increase the number of Itikaf in mosques
You can remain silent in the mosque while performing zikr. Don’t forget to pronounce the intention: Nawaitu an a’takifa fi hadzal masjidi lillahi ta’ala.
Establish evening Salat and pray
Evening fasting has a high priority, as do donations made in secret. Focus on asking for forgiveness and guidance from Him.
Prières recommandées
Although there is no obligatory special prayer, Muslims are strongly encouraged to read the Khatam Al-Quran prayer. One of the most popular is the prayer of Imam Al-Ghazali which asks for compassion through the Quran.
Additionally, you can also read the prayer which is usually recited on the evening of Lailatul Qadar. The prayer is: “Allahumma innaka ‘afuwwun tuhibbul ‘afwa fa’fu ‘anni”.
This means that we apologize to God, the Almighty. It is truly a short but very touching prayer if properly imbued.
Entering the second phase of Ramadan, the body usually begins to feel tired. Feeling sleepy at breakfast is sometimes a challenge for all of us.
However, don’t let your enthusiasm wane. Use the momentum of Nuzulul Quran as “fuel” to strengthen faith.
Let us take the Quran not only as an exhibit on the shelves of books. Read it, understand its meaning and practice it in your daily behavior for a more beneficial life.
Understanding when the night of the revelation of the Quran 2026 is the first step in preparing to receive the blessing in the holy month. Although there are differences in dates, the main thing remains to increase interaction with the holy Quran
