Why Laylat al-Qadr falls when it does in 2031
Laylat al-Qadr is fixed in the Hijri calendar, which is purely lunar with no leap month at all. Twelve lunar months run about eleven days shorter than a solar year, so the Gregorian date walks steadily backwards through the seasons and returns to the same point roughly every thirty-three years — 10 days earlier than in 2030.
