A'amaal for Laylatul Qadr

A'amaal for Laylatul Qadr
 The A'maal of Shab-e-Qadr (19th, 21st & 23rd of Ramadan)

Shab-e-Qadr is the night, which is the best night among the nights of the whole year. The "A'maal" (religious performances) of this night are better than the A'maal of 1000 months. In this night the divine Annual Decree is passed. The Angels and Roohul Ameen (A highly dignified Angel) descend on this earth, in that night. These call on the Imam of the time, and what is ordained (by Allah) for everybody is presented before the Imam.

The common A'maals are: -

1. To take a bath. Allama Majlisi says, "It is better to take a bath before sunset so that the night prayers may be performed after bath".

2. To offer two Raqats of Namaz, in every Raqat offer Surat-al-Hamd, and Surat-al-Tauhid/ Sure Ikhlaas (Kulhowallah) seven times, and after finishing the prayer 70 times recite: "Astagferullaah Rabbi Wa atoobo elaihe" i.e., "I seek pardon from God and ask for penitence from Him".

3. The Holy Qur'an should be opened and placed in front, then one should recite:

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّى أَسْأَلُكَ بِكِتَابِكَ الْمُنْزَلِ وَ مَا فِيهِ وَ فِيهِ اسْمُكَ الْأَكْبَرُ وَ أَسْمَاؤُكَ الْحُسْنَى وَ مَا يُخَافُ وَ يُرْجَى أَنْ تَجْعَلَنِى مِنْ عُتَقَائِكَ مِنَ النَّارِ

Translation: O Allah treat me as one of those who are free from Hell, in the name of this Holy Book sent by Thee, whatever there be in the Book. Including Ism-e-A'azam and Asmaa-e-Husnaa and the things to be dreaded, the things that may be expected and desired, like blessings of Jannat. Do forgive through the grace of this book.

(SALAWAT-After this he may beg from Allah whatever he wants).

He should place the Holy Qur'an on his head and say,

اللَّهُمَّ بِحَقِّ هَذَا الْقُرْآنِ وَ بِحَقِّ مَنْ أَرْسَلْتَهُ بِهِ وَ بِحَقِّ كُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ مَدَحْتَهُ فِيهِ وَ بِحَقِّكَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَلا أَحَدَ أَعْرَفُ بِحَقِّكَ مِنْكَ

Translation: O Allah! I appeal to Thee in the name of this Qur'an and the Rooh that was sent along with it, and in the name of the Momin (believer) whose praise is contained in this Book and Tine obligation that is on them. No one else recognizes the right and truth more than Thee (SALAWAT-After this he should repeat 10 times each):

BEKA YA ALLAH'HO (S.W.T.)بِكَ يَا اللَّهُ Ten times

BE MOHAMMADIN (S.A.W.)بِمُحَمَّدٍ Ten times

It is better to recite (after Surat-al-Hamd) 10 times the Surat-al-Tauhid/ Sure Ikhlaas (Kulhowallah). And also to read the following dua in the state of Roku'or Sojud:

Translation: O One Who was before everything and then brought everything into existence. He will remain while all else will be destroyed. O the One sole and solitary excepting Whom there is none else in the high heavens or low earths or above and below them, or in between them who is worth worshipping.

Only Thou art the deity and none else deserves to be worshipped. Thou only deserves the praise which cannot be encompassed but by Thee. Therefore bestow Peace and Blessings on Muhammad (S.A.W.) and Aal-e-Muhammad (A.S.) such as no body else has the power to encompass. The following Du'a has been narrated from Imam Ja'afar Sadiq (a.s.) and is recommended to be read on every night of the month of Ramadhan specially on the 19th:

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّى أَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ فِيمَا تَقْضِى وَ تُقَدِّرُ مِنَ الْأَمْرِ الْمَحْتُومِ فِى الْأَمْرِ الْحَكِيمِ مِنَ الْقَضَاءِ الَّذِى لا يُرَدُّ وَ لا يُبَدَّلُ أَنْ تَكْتُبَنِى مِنْ حُجَّاجِ بَيْتِكَ الْحَرَامِ الْمَبْرُورِ حَجُّهُمْ الْمَشْكُورِ سَعْيُهُمْ الْمَغْفُورِ ذُنُوبُهُمْ الْمُكَفَّرِ عَنْ سَيِّئَاتِهِمْ [عَنْهُمْ سَيِّئَاتُهُمْ‌] وَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ فِيمَا تَقْضِى وَ تُقَدِّرُ أَنْ تُطِيلَ عُمُرِى فِى خَيْرٍ وَ عَافِيَةٍ وَ تُوَسِّعَ فِى رِزْقِى وَ تَجْعَلَنِى مِمَّنْ تَنْتَصِرُ بِهِ لِدِينِكَ وَ لا تَسْتَبْدِلْ بِى غَيْرِى .

Translation:

O Allah, while taking decisions and rendering possible things and events decisively and determining a rational and sensible course of affairs in the Night of Qadr (which cannot be changed or bypassed), write my name in the list of those pilgrims of Thy Sacred House whose pilgrimage receive Thy approval, whose efforts are appreciated, whose sins are forgiven, whose wrongdoings are overlooked; and, while taking decisions and rendering possible things and events, make possible for me a long life and enough means of livelihood, and fulfill (mention your legitimate desires). Dua'a for 21st Ramadhan (1)

اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اقْسِمْ لِى حِلْما يَسُدُّ عَنِّى بَابَ الْجَهْلِ وَ هُدًى تَمُنُّ بِهِ عَلَىَّ مِنْ كُلِّ ضَلالَةٍ وَ غِنًى تَسُدُّ بِهِ عَنِّى بَابَ كُلِّ فَقْرٍ وَ قُوَّةً تَرُدُّ بِهَا عَنِّى كُلَّ ضَعْفٍ وَ عِزّا تُكْرِمُنِى بِهِ عَنْ كُلِّ ذُلٍّ وَ رِفْعَةً تَرْفَعُنِى بِهَا عَنْ كُلِّ ضَعَةٍ وَ أَمْنا تَرُدُّ بِهِ عَنِّى كُلَّ خَوْفٍ وَ عَافِيَةً تَسْتُرُنِى بِهَا عَنْ كُلِّ بَلاءٍ وَ عِلْما تَفْتَحُ لِى بِهِ كُلَّ يَقِينٍ وَ يَقِينا تُذْهِبُ بِهِ عَنِّى كُلَّ شَكٍّ وَ دُعَاءً تَبْسُطُ لِى بِهِ الْإِجَابَةَ فِى هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ وَ فِى هَذِهِ السَّاعَةِ السَّاعَةِ السَّاعَةِ السَّاعَةِ يَا كَرِيمُ وَ خَوْفا تَنْشُرُ [تُيَسِّرُ] لِى بِهِ كُلَّ رَحْمَةٍ وَ عِصْمَةً تَحُولُ بِهَا بَيْنِى وَ بَيْنَ الذُّنُوبِ حَتَّى أُفْلِحَ بِهَا عِنْدَ الْمَعْصُومِينَ عِنْدَكَ بِرَحْمَتِكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ .

Translation:

O Allah send blessings on Muhammad and on the children of Muhammad, and inculcate maturity (of thought and action) in me so that it stops me at the gate of ignorance; help me with guidance to cut off all links with every type of waywardness; let me have enough means to barricade the gaps of poverty, give me strength to avert weakness; raise me to noble heights to abstain from anything low and mean; let me reach higher regions to leave behind humiliation; take me to peaceful sanctuary to remain safe from all terrors;

cover me with safety to shield from the impact of all calamities; open my mind with knowledge to cultivate sure belief; let me be certain of the indubitable truth to dispel all doubts; stimulate me to make use of prayer to draw Thy attention for fulfillment (of my desires) in this night, (in fact) at this very moment. O Generous Giver; put fear (of the consequences of breaking Thy laws) in my heart to deserve (Thy) all-embracing mercy; preserve incorruptible integrity in me so that it puts a barrier between me and wrongdoing till I reach the sanctuary of all (14) Infallibles, to be presented before Thee for obtaining Thy mercy, O the Most Merciful.
