Misconceptions Regarding Shab-e-Barat (15th of Shaban) & their Answers

Misconception # 1:

Allah descends to the first heavens on this night to forgive us.

Answer:

The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alayhi wa Sallam) said: "Every night when it is the last third of the night, our Lord, the Superior, the Blessed, descends to the nearest heaven and says: Is there anyone to invoke Me that I may respond to his invocation? Is there anyone to ask Me so that I may grant him his request? Is there anyone asking My forgiveness so that I may forgive him?. " (Bukhari 1145,Muslim 1261)

Misconception # 2:

This is the night when our fate, lifespan, and provisions are decreed.

Answer:

The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “When the drop of (semen) remains in the womb(of mother) for forty (days) or forty nights, the angel comes and says:

“My Lord, will he be good or evil?” And both these things would be written.

Then the angel says: “My Lord, would he be male or female?” And both these things are written.

And his deeds and actions, *his death*, his livelihood; these are also recorded. [Sahih Muslim Hadith 6392]

Misconception # 3:

Deeds are shown (to Allaah) on 15th shaban

Answer:

Prophet (peace be upon him) said “Deeds are shown (to Allaah) on Mondays and Thursdays, and I like my deeds to be shown when I am fasting.” [Tirmidhi, 747; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Targheeb, 1041. ]

===

Misconception # 4:

The night of the 15th of Shabaan should be singled out for special kinds of worship, prayer, etc. and they have a great reward

Answer:

There is no saheeh hadeeth concerning the night of the fifteenth of Shabaan.So this night is ordinary like other nights and the reward for praying/worshiping in this night will be the same as other nights

===

Misconception # 5:

Fasting on the day of 15th shaban has a special and great reward

Answer:

Fasting on 13th 14th 15th of every month is recommended not only on 15th shaban

Prophet (peace be upon him) said “If you fast any part of the month, then fast the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth.” [Tirmidhi, 761; al-Nasaa’i, 2424; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Targheeb, 1038. ]

Misconception # 6:

This is the night when the souls of departed ones return to their families.

Answer:

This thing has no basis in quran or ahadith…. The souls can never return to this world. This is a fabrication and lie invented by people

===

Misconception # 7:

Look at all those people doing it. How can they all be wrong?

Answer:

Allah says, “And if you obey most of those in the earth, they will lead you astray from Allah's way; they follow but conjecture and they only lie.” [Al qur’an 6:116]

So this is a weak argument that majority of people do it and believe in it so it is true.

Money is yours but Resources Belong to the Society

Germany is a highly industrialized country. In such a country, many will think its people lead a luxurious life.

When we arrived at Hamburg , my colleagues walked into the restaurant, we noticed that a lot of tables were empty. There was a table where a young couple was having their meal. There were only two dishes and two cans of beer on the table. I wondered if such simple meal could be romantic, and whether the girl will leave this stingy guy.

There were a few old ladies on another table. When a dish is served, the waiter would distribute the food for them, and they would finish every bit of the food on their plates.

As we were hungry, our local colleague ordered more food for us.When we left, there was still about one third of un-consumed food on the table.

When we were leaving the restaurant, the old ladies spoke to us in English, we understood that they were unhappy about us wasting so much food.

"We paid for our food, it is none of your business how much food we left behind," my colleague told the old ladies. The old ladies were furious. One of them immediately took her hand phone out and made a call to someone. After a while, a man in uniform from Social Security organisation arrived. Upon knowing what the dispute was, he issued us a 50 Euro fine. We all kept quiet.

The officer told us in a stern voice, "ORDER WHAT YOU CAN CONSUME, MONEY IS YOURS BUT RESOURCES BELONG TO THE SOCIETY. THERE ARE MANY OTHERS IN THE WORLD WHO ARE FACING SHORTAGE OF RESOURCES. YOU HAVE NO REASON TO WASTE RESOURCES."

The mindset of people of this rich country put all of us to shame. WE REALLY NEED TO REFLECT ON THIS. We are from country which is not very rich in resources. To save face, we order large quantity and also waste food when we give others a treat.

THE LESSON: THINK SERIOUSLY ABOUT CHANGING OUR BAD HABITS. Expecting acknowledgment, that u read the message and forward to your contacts.
VERY TRUE -"MONEY IS YOURS BUT RESOURCES BELONG TO THE SOCIETY."

Tu Nahien by Irtaash

Kehti hain mujh say meri tanhaiyan,
Kia rakha hai teri in udas shamon mein,

Goonjti hain kaanon mein teri ruswaiyan,
Nachti hain in band ankhon talay,

Kabhi aanso ban kay meri aankhon ko tu bharey,
Kabhi subha ban kay meri raaton ko din karay,

Tu Nahien to kiya, Tera ehsaas sahi!
Tu Nahien to kiya, Tera ehsaas sahi!

Teri chahat, na aarzoo, na aas hai koi,
Tu nahien, teri nafratein bhi nahien!

To kiya hai jo ye pal tham jaye,
Aur woh kal na aa sakay kabhi,

Jin ki tasveeron mein,
Tum aur mein, hum nahien,

Tu nahien tou tera gham hi sahi!

Keh ab hum nahien,
Aur ab tum nahien,
Kuch bhi tou yahaan,
Pehlay jaisa nahien!

Ab hum nahien,
Aur ab tum nahien,
Kuch bhi tou yahaan,
Pehlay jaisa nahien!

Kehti hain mujh se meri tanhaiyan!!
