A LITTLE GIRL NAMED LAILATUL


Putri Lailatul came to school with her mum to attend the briefing for the Industrial Traineeship Programme for her sister Aien. After the briefing, Aien brought Lailatul to the library. According to Aien's mother, the little girl was given this name because she was born on the 21st day of the month of Ramadhan. The Muslims believe that angels would pay mankind a visit anywhere between the 21st to the 29th night of Ramadhan. Those who stay up to pray when the angels descend on earth would be blessed by them. Remember it is only for one night only and it is referred to as Lailatul Qadr or The Night of Power.
