1644. It was narrated that Anas bin Mâlik said: "Ramadân began, and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'This month has come to you, and in it there is a night that is better than a thousand months. Whoever is deprived of it is deprived of all goodness, and no one is deprived of its goodness except one who is truly deprived.'" (Da'if)
1644 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَدْرٍ عَبَّادُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِلَالٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عِمْرَانُ الْقَطَّانُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ دَخَلَ رَمَضَانُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ هَذَا الشَّهْرَ قَدْ حَضَرَكُمْ، وَفِيهِ لَيْلَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ، مَنْ حُرِمَهَا فَقَدْ حُرِمَ الْخَيْرَ كُلَّهُ، وَلَا يُحْرَمُ خَيْرَهَا إِلَّا مَحْرُومٌ»

a. The most virtuous night of this month is Lailatul-Qadr (the Night of Power) mentioned in the Glorious Qur'ân, in Chapter Al-Qadr. b. A source of achieving the reward of Lailatul-Qadr is making I'tikâf (seclusion in the mosque for worship) in the last ten days of Ramadân, as proven from the Sunnah. However if a person is unable to make I'tikâf he/she can still secure this degree of reward by performing worship during the nights, and particularly during the odd numbered nights. c. Spending this one night in worship has the equivalent reward of worshipping for more than thirty years, so if a person does not achieve this reward simply by being lazy, then it is in fact a great deprivation!
