Shab-e-Qadr (Good night). Virtue issues

 


The Night of Destiny is the night that brings the message of forgiveness and mercy to the believers.





 Ramadan is coming to an end with its blessings and bliss. Muslims around the world are enjoying the eternal bliss of this blessed month.  They are doing it. They are asking forgiveness for their sins.  Attempts are being made to please our Creator and Master through long standing and prostration.

 On the other hand, the river of Allah's mercy is also in full swing. The reward of one deed is being given seventy times.  Sins are being forgiven, ranks are rising. In this beautiful environment, it would be very appropriate to mention a great night which is mentioned by Allah, the Exalted, in His Holy Word.  In the last ten days of the holy month of Ramadan, this great night is the night of forgiveness of the sinners. It is the night of liberation of the criminals from the fire of Hell.  It is a night of need, meditation and accountability.  This night is called Shab-e-Qadr because Allah Almighty revealed in it a book of great value and dignity to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) for the guidance and reformation of a community of great value.  Since good deeds are accepted on this night and they are highly valued in the presence of the Lord of Glory, it is called Shab-e-Qadr.  He himself has revealed the Surah and all its virtues have been mentioned by the Lord of Glory.  Indeed, We revealed this Qur'an on the Night of Destiny, and what do you know about the Night of Destiny?  Laylat al-Qadr is better than a thousand months, and on this night angels and spirits (Jibreel Amin) descend by the command of their Lord for good, this night is complete security till dawn (Surat al-Qadr, 83 years, four months of worship:

 Let us know from this blessed Surah that one night's worship is better than a thousand months.

 It is a great grace of Allah (swt) on the Muhammadan Ummah that there is a night in which if worship is done with humility and submission, its reward is more than continuous and sincere worship of 5 years and 6 months. Worship in this verse  He did not limit his reward to this extent, but he could be rewarded even more by keeping his limits.  In this regard, there are opinions of various commentators which can be read and it can be concluded that the more one worships Allah with humility and submission, the more his reward will increase.


 The Glorious Revelation of Surah Qadr:

 There are various traditions regarding the glorious revelation of this Surah which was revealed with reference to Laylat al-Qadr.  Sarkar Du'alam heard that the Companions were talking about the length of life of the people of previous nations and they were saddened by the fact that their age was the shortest.  People of previous nations will take precedence over Ibn in deeds and in some places it is also mentioned that

 The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) himself said that if the people of my ummah are too young, then the people of other ummahs will take precedence over them in their deeds.  This will happen.

1.

 That night Allah revealed the Book which is for the guidance of mankind and is a source of happiness for them in this world and in the hereafter.

 2. In this blessed Surah, the virtue of Laylat al-Qadr has been questioned and its importance has been highlighted.

 3. In it, the good news was given to the Muslim Ummah that if you worship in this one night, you will get reward of one thousand months.


 4. The angels descend on this night and bring blessings from Allah and this process continues till dawn.



Symptoms of Shab Qadr:

 The following signs of Shab-e-Qadr are mentioned in a narration from Hazrat Ibadah bin Samit (RA)

 # This night is bright and clear.  Not too hot or too cold, but fragrant and mild.


 # Looking up at the sky on this night creates a state of serenity in the heart.

 # The morning sun after Shab-e-Qadr does not get hot and hot.  # Some elders have also seen the trees prostrating on this night while it has also been stated that salt water becomes sweet on this night.

 Why is Shab-e-Qadr hidden? No work of Allah Almighty and His Beloved Beloved is free from wisdom.  I will do what he has written in the fifth volume of Zia-ul-Quran.



 You say that there are many reasons for not specifying it so that Muslims spend at least five odd nights in remembrance and worship of Allah Almighty if not in search of that night.  If the night had been fixed, the people would have been awake and worshiped only on that night.  I would have suffered because they, knowing the night of Qadr, wasted it in disobedience to God.


Therefore, the requirement of God's mercy is that it should be kept hidden.

 It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (RA) that the Holy Prophet (SAW) said,  Those who stand or sit and are engaged in the remembrance of Allah. Another tradition is that they shake hands with those who are engaged in the worship of Allah.


 Hazrat Akram used to make special arrangements for the last ten days of Ramadan.  In Bukhari and Muslim, it is narrated from Hazrat Syeda Ayesha (RA) that it was the custom of the government of the two worlds that when the last ten days would begin, you would tie your apron tightly, revive the nights with remembrance of God and also wake up your family.  According to a narration from Ayesha (RA), the Holy Prophet (PBUH) would not have done as much in the last ten days of Ramadan as he did in any other decade.


 According to another narration of Bukhari and Muslim, the ruler of the two worlds said that a person who stays in Shab-e-Qadr with the intention of reward with faith, his previous sins are forgiven.

 There is a narration of Ibn Majah that the government of the two worlds said that in the month which has come upon you, there is a night which is better than a thousand months.


 He also said that only the unfortunate can be deprived of the happiness of Laylat al-Qadr.

 There is another narration in Ibn Majah that Ayesha Siddiqah (may Allah be pleased with her) says that in the last ten days of the holy month of Ramadan, the government used to work harder than other days.  In Ghaniyat-ul-Talibeen, Hazrat Abdul Qadir Jilani Mehboob Sobhani says that there is no part of the earth in Laylat-ul-Qadr where the angels are not praying for the believing men or women while prostrating or standing.

Gabriel (peace be upon him) descends on the earth, shakes hands with all the believers, greets them and says to them, "If you are obedient, you will have peace with acceptance and kindness. If you are sinners, you will have peace with forgiveness."  Peace be upon you. If you are sleeping, peace be upon you with divine pleasure. Peace be upon you with joy and fragrance if you are in the grave.



 Laylat al-Qadr is the night that brings the message of forgiveness and mercy to the believers. On this night the doors of Allah's mercy are open.  Whoever asks for health is given a gift of health from Allah.  He who prays for blessings and goodness is given goodness and goodness.


 If a childless person raises his hand for children on this great night, then he is enriched with the wealth of children.  This is the glorious night in which Allah Almighty appears according to His glory and on the other hand the angels are scattered on the earth in every street and alley.  Forgive him


 Is there anyone who seeks forgiveness that I may forgive him?  This process continues till dawn and the lucky ones take away their empty swings.

 The main act of worship on Shab-e-Qadr is the night prayer.  Stay up all night as much as possible.  One should perform the obligatory and supererogatory prayers while standing in the presence of Allah.


 He should seek forgiveness for his minor and major sins and show remorse for his misdeeds.



Special night prayer:

 Every hour of this great night is full of acceptance.  At every moment, the attention and mercy of Allah is on the river Joban, so we should make arrangements to pray with full enthusiasm.  It is narrated from Umm Al-Mumineen Syeda Ayesha Siddiqah (may Allah be pleased with her) that I prayed in the service of the Holy Prophet of Allah or the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him).


 Pray like this (translation) O Allah!  So, indeed, the Forgiver is gracious. He loves to forgive. Forgive us also.  This is a comprehensive prayer which was taught by the Holy Prophet himself through Umm Al-Mumineen.

 Most likely the night of Qadr:

 Some Sufis say that Shab-e-Qadr revolves around the whole year, but in the light of the hadiths, it is clear that Shab-e-Qadr is found in the last odd nights of Madhan-ul-Mubarak.


 And the prevailing opinion is that the night of the 27th of Ramadan is Shab-e-Qadr.  Therefore, we should wake up on the odd nights of the last ten days of Ramadan and make special arrangements so that we may be considered worthy of Allah's mercy. May Allah and the Holy Prophet pbuh grant us the ability to act.
