Shaykh Adnan Kabbaniق’s Suhbah
Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ said, “Indeed Rajab is the Month of Allah, Sha‘ban is my month and Ramadan is the month of my nation.”
Sayyidina Anasر narrates that Prophet ﷺ said, “Whoever fasts a day from the Month of Rajab with Imaan and hoping for Allah’s reward, they will be bestowed with RidwanAllah Al-Akbar (the greatest pleasure of Allah Almighty) and be placed in Firdaws al A‘laa.”
Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ said, “Respect the month of Rajab! Allah will respect you with a thousand miracles on Yaum’ul Qiyamah.” As this is the month of Allah, you if respect it, it is as if you have respected and honoured Allah Almighty.
Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ said, “Whoever fasts the first (1st), middle (15th) and the last day (29th/30th) of Rajab, all their sins are taken away as if they are new-born from their mother.”
Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ said, “Rajab’s superiority over all the months is like The Qur’an’s superiority over all other speech.”
Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ said, “Rajab is specially associated with forgiveness from Allah Almighty, Sha‘ban is specially associated with the Shafa‘ah of RasulAllah ﷺ and Ramadan is specially associated with the endless grants and gifts from the Divinely Presence of Allah Almighty where its beginning is mercy, its middle is forgiveness and its end is Freedom from Hellfire.” And all the gifts of Rajab and Sha‘ban is given in Ramadan.
The Month of Sha‘ban is a month of love and respecting Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. The Greatness of Sha‘ban is like the Greatness of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ over all creation in the sight of Allah Almighty.
Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ said, “Increase in abundance your Istighfar for indeed Allah Almighty in every hour from the hours of the month of Rajab is freeing people from Hellfire and there are heavenly cities that cannot be entered except by fasting the days of Rajab.”
Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ said, “These heavenly cities are above the Arsh.” They are not from the eight paradises rather they are from Al-Firdaws al-A‘laa fee maq‘adi sidqin ‘inda Maleekim Muqtadir.
Indeed with Allah Almighty are heavenly cities that no one can enter except through fasting the days of Rajab. Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ said, “Know that Rajab is one of the sacred months.” And Allah forgives the sinners from the Ummah of Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ. Any good deeds done in this month is taken directly by the Divinely Hand of Power of Allah Almighty and no interference from the Malaikah (Angels) during this month.
Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ said, “Whoever fasts the 15th of Rajab, it will be as if they fasted and prayed 30 years with perfection. So it’s recommended to fast the 1st, 15th and 30th of Rajab as well as every Monday and Thursday in the months of Rajab and Sha‘ban. It will be rewarded as if you fasted the whole month.”
Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ said, “That none of you should neglect the first Friday night in Rajab, for it is the night that all the angels call the Night of Desires (Laylat’ul Raghaib). Because by the time the first third of the night (after Isha for three hours) has elapsed, there will not be a single angel still at large in the heavens, nor in any region of the earth except they will be gathered together at the Ka‘ba and the area surrounding it.
Allah Almighty will condescend to notice that they have assembled there and He will say, ‘My angels, ask Me for whatever you wish!’ Their response to this will be: ‘Our Lord the request we wish to make is that You grant forgiveness to those who faithfully keep the fast in Rajab,’ whereupon Allah Almighty will say to them: ‘That I have already done!’”
Sayyidina Anasر narrates from Sayyidina Mu‘adhر who were with Sayyidina Rasulullah ﷺ and said, “Whoever fasts a day from the month of Rajab, he will see The Divinely Face of Allah Almighty and enter into Paradise without any accounting.”
In this great month, we have Laylat’ul Isra wa’l Mi‘raj where Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ said, “If someone keeps the fast on the 27th of Rajab, he will be credited with the same rewards that which is earned by fasting and praying for sixty months.”
Sayyidina Salman al-Farsiر narrates from Sayyidina Abu Hurayrahر that Sayyidina Muhammad ﷺ said, “Indeed in Rajab contains a very special day and a very special night. If someone fasts during that day and keeps worship throughout that night, he will be entitled to a reward like the one that would be earned by a person who fasted for a hundred years and who kept worship throughout all the nights in that period.”
Al-Fatiha.
