Nafil Namaz on Fridays of Rajab Month

Nafil Namaz on Fridays of Rajab Month

During the month of Rajab, there's a special Friday night namaz. It involves a voluntary prayer,(Nafil Namaz), to be prayed after the Isha Namaz. This ritual is about seeking God's blessings and making personal wishes come true.

Here's how the Nafil Namaz is done: It has two parts, or Rak'ahs. In the first part, worshippers recite Surah Al-Fatiha and then the end of Surah Al-Baqarah, from 'Amana Rasul' to 'Al-Kafirun', seven times. These lines are about deep faith and asking for God's forgiveness and help.

The second part starts the same with Surah Al-Fatiha, and then goes on to the last verse of Surah Al-Hashr, repeated seven times. These lines praise Allah's power and kindness.

2 Rak'ahs of Nafil Salah on Friday Night after Isha Namaz

1) In the first Rak'ah, recite Surah Al-Fatiha followed by the last part of Surah Al-Baqarah, from 'Amana Rasul' to 'Kafirun', 7 times.

2:285: Aamanar-Rasoolu bimaaa unzila ilaihi mir-Rabbihee walmu'minoon; kullun aamana billaahi wa Malaaa'ikathihee wa Kutubhihee wa Rusulihee laa nufarriqu baina ahadim-mir-Rusulih wa qaaloo sami'naa wa ata'naa ghufraanaka Rabbanaa wa ilaikal-maseer

2:286: Laa yukalliful-laahu nafsan illaa wus'ahaa; lahaa maa kasabat wa 'alaihaa maktasabat; Rabbanaa laa tu'aakhiznaaa in naseenaaa aw akhtaanaa; Rabbanaa wa laa tahmil-'alainaaa isran kamaa hamaltahoo 'alal-lazeena min qablinaa; Rabbanaa wa laa tuhammilnaa maa laa taaqata lanaa bih; wa'fu 'annaa waghfir lanaa warhamnaa; Anta mawlaanaa fansurnaa 'alal qawmil kaafireen 

2) In the second Rak'ah, after Surah Al-Fatiha, recite the last verse of Surah Al-Hashr, from 'Huwallahu Al-Ladhi' to 'Hajeem', 7 times. 

59:22: Huwal-laahul-lazee laaa Ilaaha illaa Huwa 'Aalimul Ghaibi wash-shahaada; Huwar Rahmaanur-Raheem

59:23: Huwal-laahul-lazee laaa Ilaaha illaa Huwal-Malikul Quddoosus-Salaamul Muminul Muhaiminul-'aAzeezul Jabbaarul-Mutakabbir; Subhaanal laahi 'Ammaa yushrikoon

59:24: Huwal Laahul Khaaliqul Baari 'ul Musawwir; lahul Asmaaa'ul Husnaa; yusabbihu lahoo maa fis samaawaati wal ardi wa Huwal 'Azeezul Hakeem

After finishing with Salam, Pray (Dua) for what you deeply wish for. This Nafil Namaz on Rajab Fridays is valued for its spiritual benefits and is thought to be very good for making wishes come true. It represents a Muslim's ongoing journey to connect with the divine and the hope of having prayers answered.

4 Rak'ahs of Nafil Salah on First Friday between Zohar and Asr

In the month of Rajab, on the first Friday between the Zohar and Asr prayers, perform a 4-rakat namaz with one salam.

In each Rak'ah, after Surah Al-Fatiha, recite Ayatul Kursi (7 times) and Surah Ikhlas (5 times).

After the Salam, recite the following dua 25 times:

La Hawla Wala Quwwata Illa Billahil Kabiril Mutaali.

Then, say Istighfar 100 times:

Astaghfirullah Al-Lazi La Ilaha Illa Huwal Hayyul Qayyum, Gaffaru Zunubi Wa Satarul Uyubi Wa Atubu Ilaihi.

Following this, recite Darood Sharif 100 times and pray for all your good wishes, and the betterment of life here and in the hereafter. Insha'Allah, all your prayers will be fulfilled.

Allahumma Salli Ala Muhammadin Nabiyyil Ummi Yi Wa Aalihi Wa Barik Wa Sallim.
