5 Special Merits of Ramadan

Sayyiduna Abu Sa'eed Khudri (Radi Allahu Anhu) has narrated that the Beloved Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) has said: “On the first night of Ramadan, the portals of the skies and Paradise are opened which remain open until the last night (of the month). So if anyone:

1. Offers Salah (Prayer) in any night of this month, Allah will reward him with 1,500 virtues for every Sajdah (Prostration) and

2. Make a palace of Red Rubies for him that will have 60,000 gates. The gates will have hinges of gold that will be embroidered with red rubies.

3. Thus, the one who fasts on the first day of Ramadan will be forgiven for his sins until the last day of the month and

4. 70,000 angels will ask for his forgiveness from morning till evening.

5. Each time he prostrates during the day or at night, he will be granted a tree in Heaven and each tree is so huge that a horse rider can ride under its shadow for 500 years!”

[Bayhaqi, Shu'ab al-Iman, Vol. 3, Page 314, Hadith 3635]

Sixty Thousand Sinners Forgiven Every Night

Sayyiduna Abdullah Ibn Masud (Radi Allahu Anhu) has narrated that the Beloved and Blessed Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) has stated,

"At every night of Ramadan, an announcement is made in the skies till dawn, ‘O seeker of goodness! Complete (i.e. keep worshipping Allah) and rejoice, and O evil one! Give up your evil and take some lesson. Is there any seeker of forgiveness, his desire will be fulfilled? Is there anyone repenting, his repentance will be accepted? Is there anyone making Dua, his Dua will be accepted? Is there anyone who seeks anything, he will be bestowed what he wishes for?’ Each evening of Ramadan at the time of sunset, Allah Almighty frees sixty thousand sinners from Hell, and on the day of Eid, He forgives as many people as the total number of those who were freed throughout the month."

[Bayhaqi, Shu'ab al-Iman, Vol. 5, Page 221, Hadith 3334]

Shor-e-Meh Nau Sun Kar Tujh Tak Maiñ Dawaañ Aaya [Lyrics]

Shor-e-Meh Nau Sun Kar Tujh Tak Maiñ Dawaañ Aaya,
Saaqi mai tere sadqe mai de ramzaan aaya.
 
Is gul ke siwa har phool ba gosh-e-giraan aaya,
Dekhe hi gi aye bulbul jab waqt-e-fughaan aaya.
 
Jab baam-e-tajalli par who nayyar-e-jaan aaya,
Sar tha jo gira jhuk kar dil tha jo tapaan aaya.
 
Jannat ko haram samjha aate to yahan aaya,
Ab tak ke har ek ka munh kehta hon kahan aaya.
 
Taiba ke siwa sab baagh paa maal-e-fanaa honge,
Dekhoge chaman waalo jab ahd-e-khazaan aaya.
 
Sar aur woh sang-e-dar aankh aur woh bazm-e-noor,
Zaalim ko watan ka dhyaan aaya to kahan aaya.
 
Kuch naat ke tabqe ka aalam hi niraala hai,
Sakte mein pari hai aql chakkar mein gumaan aaya.
 
Jalti thi zameen kaisi thee dhoop kari kaisi,
Lo woh qad-e-be saaya ab saaya kinan aaya.
 
Taiba se ham aate hai kahiye to jinan waalo,
Kya dekh ke jeeta hai jo waan se yahan aaya.
 
Le toq alam se ab aazad ho aay qumri,
Chithi liye bakhshish ki woh sarwar-e-rawaan aaya.
 
Naama-se-RAZA ke ab mit jaao bure kaamo,
Dekho mere palle par woh ache miyan aaya.

Badkaar-RAZA khush ho badkaam bhale honge,
Woh ache miyan pyara achon ka miyaan aaya.
