Rajab's Duas

Night of 27th Rajab marks the anniversary of the Baysat of our beloved
 Prophet Mohammed(sawaw). Baysat is the event of formal declaration of
 prophet-hood by Prophet Mohammed(sawaw). It is also the night of Mairaj
 which is the ascension of Prophet Mohammed(sawaw) to heavens. A
 separate newsletter will be sent on that topic later. The current newsletter
 is intended to inform about the special Aamal of this important and
 virtuous night.

It seems appropriate to mention at this stage that the Ahl-e-Tashiyyuh
 (Shias) believe that the Prophet(sawaw) is the first and foremost
 creation of Allah(swt) and He is the Prophet ever since his creation. The
 arrival of Wahi at the age of 40 is only a mark where Allah(swt) decided
 that Prophet Mohammad(sawaw) should declare the message of Allah(swt)
 openly and start the process of inviting people to salvation.

Special aamal of Shab-o-roz-e-Baysat (night and day of BAYSAT)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Special aamal have been prescribed by Masoomeen(a.s.) for this night
 which is the night between the 26th and 27th of Rajab. The aamal are as
 follows:

- Take bath towards the start of the evening of 27th. (end of the day
 of 26th)

- Observe fast on the day of 27th – It is one of the 4 most
 recommended fasts in the whole Islamic year and according to a saying of Imam
 Mahammad Taqi(a.s.), its reward is equivalent to fasting of 60 years.

- Recite salawat in abundance – Allahumma Salle ala Mohammadin wa
 aal-e-Mohammad.

- Recite Ziaraat of Prophet Mohammad(sawaw) and Imam Ali(a.s.). 

- Perform 12 Rakaat prayers during the night of 27th near mid-night in
 sets of 2 rakaat each. In each rakaat recite Sura-Hamd and then recite
 either Sura Mohammad, Naas or Suar Yaseen (according to different
 traditions in different books).

- After completing all the 12 rakaat, keep sitting in the same position
 and recite 7 times each
- Sura-Hamd,
- Sura Tawheed,
- Sura Nass,
- Sura Kafiroon,
- Sura Falaq,
- Sura Qadr and
- Ayatul Kursi

- After these suras recite the following dua:
ALHAMDO LILLA-HIL LAZI LAM YAT-TAKHIZ SAHIBATAWOON
WA LA WALADAN
WA  LAM YAKUL-LAHU SHAREEKUN FIL MULKI
WA LAM YAKUL LAHU WALIYUM MINAZ-ZULLI
