It is a mandatory tradition to perform Ghusl before the evening prayers begin. This signifies washing away worldly distractions and entering a state of pure devotion.

This isn't arbitrary. The tradition traces back to the Ahl al-Bayt (the family of the Prophet Muhammad SAW). Bohras believe that the exact night was disclosed by the Imams (specifically Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq AS) as the 23rd. Consequently, the Namaz performed on this night holds the reward of "more than a thousand months" (Quran, Surah Al-Qadr: 3).
