Surah Ikhlas Aur Surah Yasin Ki Fazilat

Surah Ikhlas ka tilawat karna Tawheed ki taaleem ko mazboot karta hai. Is surah ki barakat se naikiyaan barhti hain aur maghfirat milti hai. Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ ne farmaya ke jo shakhs Surah Ikhlas ko 3 martaba padhta hai, usne Quran ka pura ek hisa pad liya.

Surah Yasin ko Qalb-ul-Quran kaha jata hai. Yeh surah barkat aur rehamat ka sabab banti hai aur isse musibat aur pareshani door hoti hai. Shab-e-Baraat ki raat iski tilawat karne se duain qubool hoti hain aur gunaah maaf kiye jate hain.

Shab-e-Baraat Ke Azeem Fawaid

1. Maghfirat Ka Mauqa: Is raat Allah Ta'ala apne bandon ki tauba qubool karta hai.

2. Rizq Mein Izafa: Ibadat karne se Allah rizq me barkat ata farmata hai.

3. Balaon Se Nijat: Is raat namaz aur tilawat se musibat door hoti hai.

4. Qabr Ka Azaab Door Hona: Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ ne farmaya ke Shab-e-Baraat ki raat qabaristano me bhi Allah ki rehmat nazil hoti hai.

5. Behtareen Mauqa Dua Mangne Ka: Is raat agar dil se dua ki jaye to Allah usse zaroor qubool karta hai.

Supplication on Shab-e-Baraat

Allah, the Most Gracious says;-

And O dear Prophet (PBUH), when My bondmen question you concerning Me, then surely I am close; I answer the prayer of the supplicant when he calls on Me, so they must obey Me and believe in Me, so that they may attain guidance. (Surah Baqarah 2:186)

And your Lord proclaimed, “Pray to Me, I will accept; indeed those who stay conceited towards worshipping Me, will enter hell in disgrace." (Surah Momin 40:60)

Numan bin Bashir reported: The Prophet (PBUH) said, "Du'a (supplication) is worship." (Abu Dawud) Narrated Abu Hurairah that Allah’s Apostle said ‘Whoever does not supplicate to Allah, then Allah is angry with him.’ (Bukhari in ‘Adab al-Mufrad’, Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah, al-Hakim, Ahmad, Ibn Abi Shaybah, al-Bayhaqi, Tabaraani.)

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah reported: The Allah’s Apostle (PBUH) said, "A slave becomes nearest to his Lord when he is in prostration. So increase supplications while prostrating." (Muslim).

Sayyiduna Abu Umamah reported: The Allah’s Apostle (PBUH) made many supplications which we did not memorize. We said to him: "O Allah’s Apostle! You have made many supplications of which we do not remember anything." He said, "Shall I tell you a comprehensive prayer? Say: (translated) “O Allah, I beg to You the good which Your Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) begged of You; and I seek refuge in You from the evil where from Your Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) sought refuge. You are the One from Whom help is sought and Your is the responsibility to communicate (the truth). There is no power or strength except with Allah the Most High, the Great.'" (At-Tirmidhi)

Sayyiduna Abu Darda' reported: The Allah’s Apostle (PBUH) said, "The supplication of a Muslim for his (Muslim) brother in his absence will certainly be answered. Whenever he makes a supplication for good for his brother, the angel appointed for this particular task says: "Ameen! May it be for you, too'." (Muslim).

Sayyiduna Ubadah bin As-Samit said: The Allah’s Apostle (PBUH) said, "Whenever a Muslim supplicates Allah, He accepts his supplication or averts any similar kind of trouble from him until he prays for something sinful

What must we do on Shab-e-Baraat- Do's and Dont's of Shab-e-Baraat

We will stress here on the fact that since increased worship and remembrance of Allah during this Night of Deliverance is a non-obligatory, there are no strict rules of what sort of worship must be done. These are only recommendations by our illustrious scholars, so that we reap the maximum out of our sincere worship, and the maximum out of our sincere supplications. If any slave wishes to concentrate on any sort of worship, he can definitely do that; who are we to prevent from virtue?

Shab-e-Baraat ki Barkat Bhari Raat Kaise Guzarein?

1. 14 Shaban-ul-Muazzam (Baad Namaz-e-Asr):
🔹 70 martaba: Astaghfar (Allah se maghfirat ki dua)
🔹 40 martaba: La Hawla Wa La Quwwata (Allah ki qudrat ka izhar)
🔹 100 martaba: Durood Sharif (Nabi ﷺ par durood bhejna)

---

2. 15 Shaban-ul-Muazzam (Baad Namaz-e-Maghrib):
📌 2 Rakat Nafl – Lambi umar bil khair ki niyyat se
📌 2 Rakat Nafl – Bala'oon se bachne ki niyyat se
📌 2 Rakat Nafl – Kisi ka mohtaj na hone ki niyyat se

✨ Har 2 Rakat Nafl ke baad:
📖 1 martaba Surah Yaseen aur Dua-e-Nisf Shaban padhein

---

3. Shab-e-Baraat Mein Ghusl:
🛁 Beri ke 7 patte pani mein josh de kar ghusl karein, In Shaa Allah tamam saal jaadu ke asar se mehfooz rahenge.

---

4. Qabristan Mein Haazri:
📿 Qabristan jaana Sarkar ﷺ ki Sunnat hai.
📌 Tamam mard hazraat is mubarak raat mein qabron ki ziyarat karein
📌 Apne marhoomin ke liye khoob isaal-e-sawab karein

🌙 Is shab mein zyada se zyada ibadat, tilawat, tasbeeh aur tauba ki taraf raghbat rakhein. Allah Ta’ala humein is raat ki barkatein naseeb farmaye. Ameen.

So one may do as much of the following one likes, for all these are loved by Allah, the Supreme:-

1. Repent from sins and seek Allah’s forgiveness.
2. Engage in Remembrance of Allah (Zikr)
3. Recite the Holy Qur’an
4. Send Salutations upon the Holy Prophet
5. Increase your knowledge by reading books of Tafseer etc.
6. Supplicate to Allah, seeking all the needs of this world and hereafter.
7. Offer the Maghrib, Isha and Fajr Obligatory Prayers with the congregation. This carries a very high reward, including spending the whole night in worship.
8. Attend the assembly of pious scholars, listen to their discourse, and try to gain some sacred beneficial knowledge. This too carries a very high reward, including spending the whole night in worship.
9. Offer the missed obligatory “Qada” Prayers, and resolve not to let them lapse again.
10. Offer Nawafil Prayers.
11. Offer additional charity to the needy, orphans and destitute.
12. Serve the parents.
13. Visit the Graveyard, especially graves of deceased parents.
14. Do Tawaaf of the Kaabah or any other virtuous etc.
15. Stay away from play and frivolous pastimes.

We have already listed some narrations regarding how Allah brings His slaves closer to Him, when they have completed their obligations and then persevere in the Nawafil (non obligatory).

Before we list out the recommendations of our illustrious scholars regarding the mode of worships, we list here-below the virtues of such worship, so that we understand them and incline towards them.

Perform Ghusl after Magrib Namaz for Safeguarding from Magic for the Whole Year till next Shab E Baraat  On the 15th night, After Magrib Namaz, Take Ghusl with Berry Leaves. Take 7 leaves, boil them in water and perform Ghusl with that water. Each person must have 7 leaves. After Ghusl, Perform 2 Rakats of nafl for tahiyatul wudu. In every Rakaat, after the Suratul Fatiha, you should read Ayatul Kursi once and Surah Ikhlas 3 times.

Repentance & Seeking Forgiveness during Shab-e-Baraat

Allah, the Supreme, says:

And those (the pious) who, when they commit an immoral act or wrong themselves, remember Allah and seek forgiveness of their sins – and who forgives sins except Allah? And those who do not purposely become stubborn regarding what they did.(Surah Aale Imran 3:135)

“And ask forgiveness from your Lord and incline towards Him in repentance (Surah Hud 11:3)
And O Muslims, all of you turn in repentance together towards Allah, in the hope of attaining success (Surah Noor 24:31)

O People who Believe! Incline towards Allah in a repentance that becomes a guidance for the future".(Surah Tahreem 66:8)

“The one who repents from sin is like one who did not sin.” (Ibn Majah, Tabarani & others)
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah reported: I heard Allah’s Apostle saying: "By Allah, I seek Allah's forgiveness and repent to Him more than seventy times a day." (Bukhari).

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah narrated: Allah’s Apostle said, "He who repents before the sun rises from the west, Allah will forgive him". (Muslim).

The Guardian of Imaan : After performing Maghrib Salaah, read 2 rakaahs of Nafil. In the first rakaah, after Surah Fatiha, recite Surah Ikhlaas 3 times and Surah Falaq once.In the second rakaah, after Surah Fatiha, recite Surah Ikhlaas 3 times and Surah Naas once. After Salam, make Du’a and ask Allah to protect your Imaan.

Shab-e-Baraat : Night of Salvation

Shab-e-Baraat : Night of Salvation

The 15th night of Shabaan is a very blessed night. According to the Hadith Shareef, the name of this Mubarak night is “Nisf Shabaan” which means 15th night of Shabaan. The reason for this special night to attain its name of Laylat al-Bara’ah, meaning the Night of Salvation, Seeking Freedom from Azaab and Calamity, is that in this night the Barkaat and acceptance of repentance may be accomplished. Laylat al-Baraa’ah in Persian, as well as in Urdu, is called Shab-e Bara’at.

There is one night in the year when Allah (Soobha Nahu Wata’ala) gives the knowledge to the Angels, about what is going to happen in the following year, for example, who is going to die, who will be born, who will be ill and how much food people will have in the year, etc.
Hazrat ALI (radi Allahu ta’ala anhu) has said:"o people,spend the 15th night of shabaan in divine worship and keep fast on the 15th day of shabaan. on this auspicious night,ALLAH spreads HIS mercy on the earth and calls out:'IS THERE ANY WHO SEEKS CURE FROM ILLNESS THAT I MAY CURE HIM?Thus HE calls the needy ,and grants them their needs,up till dawn." (ibn majah)

A’la Hadrat, Imam Ahmad Rida Fadil e-Bareilly (radi Allahu ta’ala anhu) has given a beautiful advise in this regard. This great Imam said: “Verily the auspicious night of Shab-e- Bara’a is drawing near when the deeds of the slave will be presented to the Almighty Allah. I humbly supplicate in the Darbar-e-Aqdas of the Almighty Allah that through the Wasila-e-Uzma of Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (Salla Allahu alaihi wa Sallam) He forgives the sins and transgressions of all Muslims. Aameen.

Imam Tirmidhi writes:
Aisha Radi Allahu unha said: “On this night the Prophet [May Allah bless Him and grant Him peace] went to Jannat-ul-Baqee to make du’a, I followed him. The Prophet [May Allah bless Him and grant Him peace] said to me: Allah puts His attention towards the first Heaven, and forgives the sins of the people, even if they were equivalent to the hairs of the goats of Bunn Qalb. (A tribe who at the time had a lot of goats) [ Tirmidhi , Kitab-us-Siyaam]

Hazrat ABU BAKR (radi Allahu ta’ala anhu) said:"on the night of shabaan,ALLAH spreads HIS mercy on the earth and pardons all the sinners except the Polytheist,the Hypocrites and those who harbour ill-feeling towards their brethren." (baihaqi)

Further,a special point must also be made to visit the cemetery on this night and spend a long time there,reading and praying for the deceased.
Finally,on the 13th,14th,and 15th of this month one must fast not only to end one's AMAL NAMA with a good deed and begin the new AMAL NAMA with a good deed,but also because the Holy Prophet(PBUH)has said:"O PEOPLE,LIGHTEN AND CLEANSE THY BIDIES BY WAY OF FASTING DURING SHABAAN,SO THAT IS SHALL BE EASY AND HELPFUL TO YOU FOR THE FASTING DURING RAMADAAN.WHO SO FASTS THREE DAYS DURING SHABAAN,ALL HIS PAST SINS ARE WIPED OFF."

“On this occasion, it should be the duty of all Sunni Muslims to forgive one another and to make sure that whatever debts owed to one another is settled. The importance of Huqooq al-Ibaad cannot be over-emphasised as this is among the pre-requisites for proper Ibaadat. I pray that all Muslims humbly remember this night and try as much as possible to perform Ibaadat and other pious deeds so that their Record of Deeds be presented in all dignity.
