FASTING IN THE MONTH OF RAJAB
Fasting is one of the most recommended acts during this
spiritual season. It becomes Wajib during the month of Ramadan but is highly
recommended during the months of Rajab and Shaban. As will be
noted from the Hadees fasting, be it for only one day during these months, is rewarded with untold bounties.
Hazrat Salman Farsi [Radiyal Laahu Anhu] narrates
that the Holy
Prophet ﷺ said that there is a day in the month of Rajab on which if a person fasts and does Qiyaam ul Laiel (night vigil ) on that night, he will receive rewards like a person who fasts for 100 years and does Qiyaam ul Laiel for nights of 100 years. This night is the night of the 27th (Rajab) and the day of the 27th (Rajab).
The Night of Mairaj Un Nabi.
"Rajab is (the name of) a River in paradise that
is whiter than milk & sweeter than honey. Allaah Almighty will allow one to
drink from this river if he fasts for even one day in this month. It is also a
month of seeking forgiveness more than usual as Allaah Kareem is forgiving
& merciful during this month.
