Rajab - The Beginning of Spiritual Season

Insha'Allah Monday 14th June 2010 is expected to be the 1st of Rajab Mubarak - the month of Mercy, Blessings and Forgiveness from Allah swt.
Rajab marks the beginning of the spiritual season for every believer ending with the end of the fasting month of Ramadan with the Eid Al Fitr.
These three months (Rajab, Shaban, and Ramadhan) are unmatched in their significance and importance.

Imam Musa al-Kadhim(as):

"Rajab is the name of a river in heaven, which is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey.
Whoever fasts in Rajab shall be able to drink from that river".

4)Then seek your needs, they will be granted, insha’Allah.
(Mafatihul Jinan, Pg 139 Arabic / Pg 466 Gujarat)

Benefits of A’amal-e-Laylatur Raghaib :

1)Forgiveness of a great many sins.

2)Safety from the troubles of the first night in the grave.

3)Shelter on the Day of Resurrection.

It has been narrated that: After the Trumpet is blown, This Prayer will take the shape of a fine, smiling person, and he will enter the grave of one who performed it, with the following words - My dear friends, good news for you.  You are safe from all troubles.  The dead one will ask - But may I know please who you are?  I have never seen a face better than yours; nor have I heard words sweeter than the words from your tongue; nor have I smelled a perfume more refreshing than from you.  My dear, I am the act which you performed on that particular night, month and year, and in that particular country. Allah swt has sent me tonight into your grave to reward you, and to remove your feelings of loneliness and hopelessness.  And when the siren on the Day of Judgement will be heard, will take you out & I will provide you a cool cover over your head.  So, be full of joy.  No goodness will be denied to you.”

The following site http://www.duas.org/rajab.htm has details of the Amaals recommended on this Holy Month.

One of the greatest Ibadats in this and in every month is sending Blessings on our Prophet saww and his pure progeny - i.e. reciting Salawat regularly
The Meaning of Salawaat
Sheikh Mansour Leghaei

In the Name of Allah; the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
“ Allah and His Angels send blessings on the Prophet, O you who believe! send your blessings on him, and solute him a thorough salutation”. (33:56)


The Virtues of Salawat

1. the most valuable deeds in your Scale:

2. An atonement for the sins:

3. A key to the grant of supplication:

There are many Hadiths stating that in order to have your supplication granted start your supplication with Salawat and end it with Salawat.
Because, Salawat is an absolutely granted supplication and Allah (swt) is more merciful
than to accept the beginning of your supplication and the end of it , but does not grant the one in the middle.

4. Remembering the Prophet is equivalent to remembering Allah:

5. The best Word (Dhikr) in the Holy Mosque:

Someone came to Imam Sadiq (a.s.) and said to him that he visited the Holy Mosque in Mecca .
During his rituals he could not remember any other supplication except Salawat. The Imam replied: 'you had remembered the best supplication'.

It is practically proven that Salawat will treat the forgetfulness.

7. Daily Prayers is invalid without Salawat.

All of the Maraje' agree that Salawat in Tashahod is compulsory and on the condition it is not mentioned intentionally then the Prayers is invalid.
Also, Shafe' and Hanbali hold the same opinion for the second Tashahod.

Salawat in the universe

The entire universe is asking the blessings for the Prophet. ‘Allah and His Angels are sending the blessings to the Prophet'. This is why the Prophet is ‘the blessings for the universe'. Following this natural process the believers are recommended to send the blessings onto the Prophet.

As a matter of fact, all of the Islamic rules are harmonious with the natural laws. That's why Islam is called the religion of nature (Fetrat). The universe is constantly asking the blessings for the ‘blessing of the world' and therefore the believers are also recommended to follow this natural law.
