Beraat kandili is one of holy days in Islam.

Normally, its name is Beraat Gecesi (acquittal night). There are some holy days: Miraç, Beraat, Regaib, Kadir, Mevlid. In these nights, muslims are advised to pray more, in Quran.

Normally, they are nights, and normally kandil means oil-lamp. That phrase get used to be used as night. It does not mean "oil-lamp" for here. It means "night" as a holy night.
