💠🔸Aamal of Shab Qadr

Along with giving our condolences on the days of martyrdom of Ameerul Momeneen (as), we briefly present to you the Aamal of Shab Qadr (Night of Decree).
As it is known, on the night of 19th, Allah gathers/collects the destiny for an individual, on the night of 21st, He makes the necessary changes and rearrangements and on the night of 23rd, He puts His seal and approval on the destiny for the person. Although, this seal on the destiny does not imply that no changes can come in it during the year.
The Holy Quran says, The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months.
Many traditions about this night say that the prayers and worship in this single night is better than the worship of a thousand months. So if one month has 30 days, then thousand months equals 30,000 days. Hence, worshipping in this night is better than the worship of 30,000 days.
Then Shab Qadr should not be spent in reading the newspaper or seeing some movie or discussing politics. Rather, right from Maghrib till the Azan of Subh a person should be engrossed in worship and prayers. He should utilise this time from Maghrib till Azan Subh – which better than 30,000 days – to get maximum benefit for himself.

From among the many Aamal listed about Shab Qadr we will mention 9 of them which we should try to perform and not be negligent.

1 Staying awake
Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a) would roll up his sleep mattress and would not sleep in the last 10 nights of this month and spend this time in worship and prayers. J Zehra (sa) would sprinkle water on the face of her children so that they may not sleep in these nights but stay awake and spend it in worship. In some traditions it is mentioned that once Imam Sadiq (as) was ill during Shab Qadr. Yet he requested his companions to take him to Masjid Nabawi. They helped him to go there. Imam spent the entire night in worship and prayers.
Even if we are unhappy and sorrowful, yet we should try our best to make use of this night and spend it in worship.

2. Ghusl
The Ghusl (bath) of Shab Qadr is greatly emphasised and it has come in traditions that the one who does ghusl in these nights will be free from all his sins.

3. Namaz
As much as possible, namaz should be recited. Narrator says, “Once I was in the presence of Imam Sadiq (as) and I saw that he was continuously reciting namaz. And when the time of sehr was close, he began reciting dua 100 rakat namaz have recommended to be recited this night. In the earlier nights we have spoken about reciting namaz in masjid. Then reciting 100 rakat namaz in the form of qaza prayers in masjid will be considered as fulfilling the namaz of Shab Qadr
Another two rakat namaz is also mentioned in which we have to recite 7 times Surah Ikhlas after Surah Hamd in both rakats. After that we should recite 70 times istigfaar. This namaz is the cause if forgiveness of all sins as well as the cause of Divine Mercy on one’s parents.
Hence, in Shab Qadr, mustahab namaz should be recited as much as possible.

4. Keeping Quran on the head
This is one of the aamal of Shab Qadr A small dua of two lines is to be recited and then the Quran is to be kept on one’s head. Under the Quran we give the qasam of 14 masoomeen (a.s) to Allah and then later pray for our needs. The foremost prayer should be the zuhoor of Imam Zamana (as).

5. Dua
We should recite Dua Iftitah in the early part of the night and then Dua Jawshan. If possible, one should also recite Dua Abu Hamza Somali which is highly recommended. Also, Dua Mubahelah is very much recommended. Besides, there are many smaller Duas in Mafati which we should try to read.

6. Seeking forgiveness
If you want your destiny to be converted into good and positive, then you should do istigfaar as much as possible. If you do like this then Allah will change your bad destiny into a good destiny. Sending curse on the killers of Ameerul Momeneen (as), 100 times is included in the Aamal of 19th Shab Qadr.

7. Reading Quran
In the entire month of Ramazan, reward of reciting one verse of Quran is equal to completing an entire Quran. Then in Shab Qadr, the reward will be 30,000 times more. Hence, as much as possible, Quran should be recited. Especially, in the 23rd night, it has been recommended to recite Surah Qadr, Surah Ankaboot, Surah Room and Surah Dukhan.

8. Ziarat Imam Husain (as)
A special Ziarat of Imam Husain (as) is available in Mafati that is to be recited in these nights. One should recite it on behalf of Imam Zamana (as) so that the reward will be more for you.

9. Dua Allahumma Kunle Waliyek
This Dua has been greatly stressed to be recited on all three nights with a special emphasis on its recitation on the 23rd night. Standing or sitting, this Dua is to recited as much as possible for the early Zuhoor of Imam Zamana (as) as well as for his safety. In return, we too will receive his intercession.

O Allah! For the sake of Imam Zamana (as), in these nights of Qadr – and especially in the night of 23rd as You have promised – destine the Zuhoor of Imam Zamana (as) O Allah!
Include us in the Duas of Imam Zamana (as) and grant us his intercession.
