The Last Day of Rajab (Rajab)

Description:

Narrations have mentioned that it is recommended to bathe oneself on this day and to observe fasting on it, which achieves the forgiveness of all sins, both the past and the future

 

It is recommended to begin with offering the famous Salat Salman (The Prayer of Salman al-Farisi), which consists of thirty units. On the first of Rajab, it is advisable to offer ten units of this prayer separating each couple with a Taslim. In each unit, one should recite Surah al-Faatehah one time, Surah al-Tawheed three times, and Surah al-Kafirun three times. After Taslim, it is recommended to raise the hands up and say the following litany:

لَآ اِلٰہَ اِلّاَاللّٰہُ وَحْدَہُ لَا شَرِیْکَ لَہُ لَہُ الْمُلْکُ وَلَہُ الْحَمْدُ یُحْیِیْ وَیُمِیْتُ وَھُوَ حَیٌّ لَّا یَمُوْتُ بِیَدِہِ الْخَیْرُ وَھُوَ عَلٰی کُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدِیْرٌ

The following litany should be said thereafter:

اَللّٰھُمَّ لَا مَانِعَ لِمَآ اَعْطَیْتَ وَلَا مُعْطِیَ لِمَا مَنَعْتَ وَلَا یَنْفَعُ ذَا الْجَدِّ مِنْکَ الْجَدُّ

 

Translation:

There is no god save Allah, the One and Only Who has no partner. To him is the kingdom and to Him is all praise. He gives life and causes to die while He is Ever-living and never dies. In His hand is the good and He has power over all things.

The following litany should be said thereafter:

O Allah, verily, none can ever divest him whom You decide to give, none can ever give him whom You decide to deprive, and nothing can ever stop that which You decide.
