Book Name:Ramazan Ki Amad Marhaba

Five special blessings

Sayyiduna Jabir Bin ‘Abdullah رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ تَـعَـالٰی عَـنْهُ has narrated that the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated, ‘In Ramadan, my Ummah has been given five such things which were not given to any other Nabi عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام before me:

1.   On the first night of blessed Ramadan, Allah Almighty has mercy on them and the one on whom Allah Almighty has mercy will never be tormented.

2.  The smell emanating from their mouths in the evening (due to hunger) has a higher status in the sight of Allah Almighty than even the fragrance of musk.

3.   Angels continue to make Du’as for their forgiveness every day and night.

4.   Allah Almighty orders Paradise: ‘Be adorned for My (righteous) bondmen; soon they get rid of the sufferings of the world and will find peace in My house and My mercy.’

5.   On the last night of blessed Ramadan, Allah Almighty forgives everyone.’

A person from the nation stood up and humbly asked, ‘O beloved Rasoolصَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم! Is it Layla-tul-Qadr?’ He صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم replied, ‘No. Do you not see that labourers are given their wage when they finish their work?’

(Attargheeb Wattarheeb, vol. 2, pp. 56, Hadees 7)

صَـلُّوا عَلَى الْـحَـبِيْب                                                         صَـلَّى الـلّٰـهُ تَـعَـالٰى عَـلٰى مُـحَـمَّد

O the devotees of Ramadan! Have you heard! The glory and greatness of blessed Ramadan is very eminent! In this sacred month, Allah Almighty has mercy on His bondmen. Muslims should have prepared for this month from the blessed month of Rajab and should have pleased Allah Almighty by worshipping Him and reciting the Holy Quran, but unfortunately majority of Muslims spend this month heedlessly like other months too.
