People from all walks of life observe Qadr night (the 23rd of the fasting month of Ramadan) at Hafezieh, the mausoleum of the Persian poet Hafez in the city of Shiraz, on April 13. The Holy Quran was revealed to Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) on Qadr night, which is observed on the 19th and the 21st of Ramadan as well. The occasion also marks the martyrdom of Imam Ali (AS), the first Shia Imam.
