It's believed this is the night God changed the direction to pray from Jerusalem to Mecca. Some say it's a blessed night because it comes after Rajab and prior to Ramadan, both of which are considered very blessed
The months of Rajab, Dhū al-Qa'dah, Dhu al-Ḥijjah, and Muḥarram are considered sacred. When Was Year 1? Like the Persian calendar, Islamic time reckoning begins in 622 CE when the Muslim prophet Muhammad migrated to Medina.
