Islamabad: On the occasion of Shab-e-Barat, blessed gatherings will be organized in mosques across the country today and prayers and nawafil will be performed throughout the night.
Tonight, scholars and speakers will expound the virtues of Shab-e-Barat in mosques across the country, while people will also recite Fateha on the graves of their loved ones on this night.
The month of Shaban is full of blessings, but its 15th night, known as Shab-e-Barat, holds special significance. “Shab” means night and “Barat” means redemption. This night is a special occasion for the mercy and forgiveness of Allah Almighty.
According to traditions, on this night, Allah Almighty forgives more sinners than the number of hairs on the goats of the Banu Kalb tribe. On this night, a list of all the affairs of the universe, such as rise and fall, success and failure, and expansion and contraction in sustenance, is compiled, and the angels are assigned their tasks.
Special acts of worship will continue throughout the night, especially after Maghrib prayer, 6 voluntary prayers will be offered.
Muslims will pray to Allah for repentance of sins, forgiveness, faith, expansion of sustenance, and the peace of the Islamic world, especially Pakistan.
Shab-e-Barat provides an opportunity for the servants to take full advantage of Allah’s blessings and pray for improvements in their lives. This night is a source of spiritual peace and seeking Allah’s blessings.
