Sahih al-Bukhari 2023 (Book 32, Hadith 10) #1941
Searching for the Night of Qadr

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) came to inform the people about the Night of Qadr, but two Muslims were quarreling and thus, the news was taken away. He then suggested that they search for it on the 29th, 27th and 25th of Ramadan.

Narrated 'Ubada bin As-Samit: The Prophet came out to inform us about the Night of Qadr but two Muslims were quarreling with each other. So, the Prophet said, "I came out to inform you about the Night of Qadr but such-and-such persons were quarreling, so the news about it had been taken away; yet that might be for your own good, so search for it on the 29th, 27th and 25th (of Ramadan).
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسٌ، عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ، قَالَ خَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ لِيُخْبِرَنَا بِلَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ، فَتَلاَحَى رَجُلاَنِ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ خَرَجْتُ لأُخْبِرَكُمْ بِلَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ، فَتَلاَحَى فُلاَنٌ وَفُلاَنٌ، فَرُفِعَتْ، وَعَسَى أَنْ يَكُونَ خَيْرًا لَكُمْ، فَالْتَمِسُوهَا فِي التَّاسِعَةِ وَالسَّابِعَةِ وَالْخَامِسَةِ

QUICK LESSONS:
Maintain peace in society & Seek knowledge & Guidance from Allah SWT
EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith is about a situation where Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) came out to inform his followers about Laylatul-Qadr or ‘The Night of Power’ which is one of the holiest nights in Islam. However, two Muslims were quarreling with each other and thus, he said that this news had been taken away from them as it might be better for them. He then suggested that they search for it on 29th, 27th and 25th night of Ramadan as these are considered to be most likely nights when Laylatul-Qadr occurs. This hadith teaches us an important lesson that we should always try to maintain peace in our society instead of creating chaos by arguing with each other as this can lead us away from blessings like knowledge or guidance from Allah SWT. It also reminds us how important it is to seek knowledge even if we don’t have access to it directly due to some reasons like here where people couldn’t get information due to their own quarrelsomeness.
