It is named after Shishlam, the Mandaean personification of the prototypical priest. The Night of Power takes place on the night of the 6th day (similar to Qadr Night), during which the heavenly gates of Abatur are open to the faithful. Priests visit Mandaean households and give them myrtle wreaths to hang on their houses for the rest of the year to protect against evil. The households also donate alms (zidqa) to the priests. Similarly, house blessings and door chalking also often take place on Epiphany, a Christian holiday typically celebrated on January 6. (en)
