Kafan ki Wapsi | The Return of the Shroud
Rajab is the month of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, Sha’bān is my month, and Ramadan is the month of my Ummaĥ.
(Al-Firdaus bimā Šaur-ul-Khaṭṭāb, vol. 2, pp. 275, Ḥadīš 3276)
Various names of Rajab and their meanings
In essence, the name of رَجَب [Rajab] has been derived from the word تَرۡجِيۡب [Tarjīb], which means to pay respect. It is also known as اَلۡاَصَبۡ [Al-Aṣab], which means ‘fast flowing’, as the downpour of mercy is increased upon those who repent in this month, and those who worship in this month are showered with the light of blessings. It is also called اَلۡاَصَمّ [Al-Aṣam], which means ‘the deaf’ because, in this month, the sound of war and dispute is not heard at all. (Mukāshafa-tul-Qulūb, pp. 301) This month is also called شَهۡرِ رَجَم (the month of stoning), because the devils are stoned in it so that they cannot cause harm to the Muslims. (Ghunya-tuṭ-Ṭālibīn, vol. 1, pp. 319-320)

The first letter ر [Rā] stands for the Raḥmaĥ (Mercy) of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, ج [Jīm] stands for Jurm (the crime) of the person and ب [Bā] stands for Birr (Kindness). In other words,
