In Islamic belief Laylat Al-Qadr marks the night when the first verses of the Koran were revealed to the Prophet Mohammed. Muslims around the world celebrate the holy month of Ramadan by praying during the night time and abstaining from eating and drinking, smoking and sexual relations during the period between sunrise and sunset. Ramadan is the ninth month in the Islamic calendar and it is believed that the Koran's first verse was revealed during its last 10 nights. EPA/MOHAMMED SABER
