Worship on the Night of Power (Laylat al-Qadr)

Question:
Would I have to spendthe entire night at theMasjid until after Fajr
prayer? Could I go late, say around 01:00? Could I go when it begins
and leave around 02:00 and still receive my blessings of forgiveness
from Allah?

Answer:
Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,
One attains unto the reward of worshipping on the Night of Power
through any worship one does that night. The most important is to
strive onesutmost to perform Isha and Fajr in congregation. After
that, the most important of spiritual actions on that night is sincere
repentance: one should seek to return to ones Lord through makingthe
firm commitment to leave ones state of heedlessness and disobedience
and make the commitment to turn ones heart in the directionof Divine
Pleasure.
And Allah alone gives success.
Wassalam,
