SAEDNEWS: In Islamic law, there are many recommended ritual baths (Ghusl), including the Ghusl of the month of Rajab.
According to Saednews, The first night of Rajab is a blessed and noble night, and several recommended acts are associated with it.
According to some Islamic scholars, it is recommended to perform ghusl on this night. It is narrated from the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his family) that whoever reaches the month of Rajab and performs ghusl at its beginning, middle, and end will emerge from their sins as pure as the day they were born.
Sayyid Ibn Tawus writes that he found a narration in the book of Worship attributed to the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him), stating:
“Whoever experiences the month of Rajab and performs ghusl at its beginning, middle, and end will emerge purified of sins, just as on the day they were born.”
Visiting the shrine of Imam Hussein (peace be upon him) on this night is also considered highly meritorious.
After performing the Maghrib prayer, offer 20 rak‘ahs (units of prayer), completing a salutation after every two rak‘ahs.
In each rak‘ah, recite:
Surah Al-Fatihah once.
Surah Al-Ikhlas once.
The Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his family) is reported to have said that whoever performs this prayer will have themselves, their family, their wealth, and their children protected by Allah. They will also be granted protection from the punishment of the grave and will cross the Sirat Bridge swiftly on the Day of Judgment.
After performing the Isha prayer, offer two rak‘ahs as follows:
First rak‘ah:
Surah Al-Fatihah once.
Surah Ash-Sharh (Al-Inshirah) once.
Surah Al-Ikhlas three times.
Second rak‘ah:
Surah Al-Fatihah once.
Surah Ash-Sharh (Al-Inshirah) once.
Surah Al-Ikhlas once.
Surah Al-Falaq once.
Surah An-Nas once.
After completing the prayer and saying the salutation, recite:
“La ilaha illallah” (There is no god but Allah) 30 times.
Salawat (blessings upon Prophet Muhammad and his family) 30 times.
The Holy Prophet (peace be upon him and his family) is reported to have said that whoever performs this act will be forgiven by Allah and cleansed of their sins.
Performing ghusl is recommended on the following days of the month of Rajab:
The first day.
The fifteenth day.
The twenty-seventh day.
The last day of the month.
Ghusl is a ritual bath performed with the intention of attaining ritual purification. The specific method follows the established rules of Islamic ghusl.
