A’amal-e-Laylat-ur Raghaaib
Recommended Prayer on the First
Thursday in the Holy Month of Rajab
The Benefits of the prayer
(Fazilat)
Prophet Muhammad (saww) has Recommended
to us a prayer, to Be performed on the first Thursday of Rajab,
which will give us the following benefits:
- Forgiveness of a great many sins.
- Safety from troubles of the first night in the grave,
and a shelter on the day of Resurrection, after the Trumpet
is blown. The prayer will take the shape of a fine, smiling
person, and he will enter the grave of one who performed
it, with the following words:
“My dear friend,
good news for you! You are safe from all troubles!”
The dead will ask: “ But may I know please who you are?
I have never seen a face better than yours;
nor have I heard words sweeter than the words from your tongue;
nor have I smelled a perfume more
refreshing than from you!”
“ My dear, I
am the act which you performed on that particular night, month
and year, and in that particular country.
I have come tonight into your grave to reward you, and to
remove your feelings of loneliness and hopelessness .
And when the siren on the day of Judgment will be heard, will
take you out, I will provide you a cool cover over
your head. So be full of joy. No goodness will be denied to
you
