About this episode

What happens in the heavens and the graves on Laylatul Qadr?

The angels fill the skies, and destinies are written. The living pray for mercy, while the dead long for one more chance. But this night isn’t just for us—its blessings reach beyond. Your du’a can lift the souls of those who have passed, just as it can change your fate. Allahumma innaka ‘afuwwun, tuhibbul ‘afwa, fa’fu ‘anna—don’t forget to include them in the "us."

NOTE: All depictions of Barzakh are purely conceptual and only vocals were used in the making of the soundtrack.
