SHAB E BARAT GATHERING

SHAB E BARAT GATHERING
One of the most auspicious nights in the Islamic calendar falls on
Saturday 24th February – Nisf u Sha’ban (the night of Mid Sha’ban)
Our annual programme will take place after Isha (prayer stands at 7.15pm). Open to brothers and sisters. Salatul Tasbeeh will be performed in congregation at the close
The Prophet ‎ﷺ said, “When it is the night of the middle of Sha’ban, Allah looks down on His creation and forgives the believers, prolongs hope for the disbelievers and leaves the spiteful to their rancor until they desert it ” (At-Tabarani)
The Prophet ‎ﷺ also said to Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) “Allah descends on the night of the middle of Sha’ban to the lowest heaven, and He forgives more than the numbers of hairs on the sheep of Banu Kalb (an Arab tribe renowned for their great flocks of sheep)’. [Tirmidhi and Mishkat Sharif]
