The 15th of Shabaan is also known as Neema-e-Shabaan and it is also remembered as Shab-e-Barat among Muslims. It is a highly virtuous night during which our last Imam Mohammad Mehdi(atfs) was born.

Night of 15th of Shabaan 1435 AH is the night after the day of the 14th. Please re-confirm the equivalent date of June with your local Mosque/Imambargah for the exact occurrence in your area.

Special Aamal of 15th of Shabaan

Imam Ali(as) relates from the Prophet Mohammad(sawaw) that the 15th of Shabaan is a highly virtuous night. Believers should spend this night offering prayers and should observe fast on the following day. Verily during this night until dawn Allah(swt) inquires Malaik (angels) - is there anyone who repents his sins ready that I may forgive him/her? Is there anyone who asks for increase in earnings (Rizk/Rozi) and I grant so.

Imam Zain-al-Abideen(as) said that if someone wishes to meet the souls of the One Hundred Twenty-Four Thousand Prophets, he/she should recite the ziarat of Imam Hussain(as) during this night. Since it is the night of the birth of our beloved Imam Zamana(atfs), it is recommended to recite the ziarat of our Imam Zamana(as) as well.

The following Aamal have been recommended by Masoomeen(as) for this night:

(1) Bathe and wear clean clothes
(2) Keep vigil the night long in prayers till dawn.
(3) Recite Ziarat of Imam Hussain(as)
(4) Recite Dua-e-Kumail
(5) Imam Mohammad Baqir(as) said that whoever recites :
100 times "Subhan Allah",
100 times "Alhamd-o-lillah",
100 times "Allaho Akbar" and
100 times "La ilaha il-Allah"

during this night, Allah(swt) will forgive his/her previous sins and will accept his/her prayers.

(6) The following dua is equivalent to the Ziarat of Imam Zamana(as) and is recommended to be recited during this night.

(7) Imam Mohammad Baqir(as) and Imam Jafer Sadiq(as) used to pray a 4 Rakaat Namaz in this night. In each rakat recite:
- 100 times Sura-e-Fatiha and
- 100 times Sura-e-Akhlas (Qul-ho-Allah-ho-Ahad).
After salam of the prayer, the following dua is to recited:

ALLAHUMA INNI ILAIKA FAQEERUN
WA MIN AZABIKA KHAYEFUN
WA BIKA MUSTAJEERUN RABBI LA TUBADDIL ISMI
WA LA TUGHAYYER JISMI
RABBI LA TAJHAD BALAYI

WA AAOOZO BIRIZAKA MIN SAKHTIKA
WA AAOOZO BIKA MINKA
JALLA SANAAOKA ANTA KAMA ASNEITA ALA NAFSIKA
WA FAUQA MA YAQOOLUL QAEELOONA FEEKA

(8) It is also recommended to recite:
10 Rakaat prayer in sets of 2 Rakaat each.
In each Rakat recite once Sura-e-Hamd and
10 times Sura-e-Qul-ho-Allah-ho-Ahad.
After each 2 Rakat set offer Sajda and recite this Dua:

`ALLAHUMMA LAKA SAJADA SAWADI
WA KHAYALI WA BAYADI
YA AZEEMA KULLE AZEEMIN
IGHFIRLI ZAMBI-AL AZEEMA
FA INNAHU LA YAGHFIRU-HU GHAIRUKA YA AZEEMO

Best Dua during this night is "Dua-e-Kumail" and “Dua-e-Nudba”. In addition, recite Quran and other virtuous duas as you deem necessary and ask for the forgiveness of past sins and the betterment of the future.

Towards the end of the night, Momineen and Mominaat usually present their griefs, worries and desires to the last Imam Mohammad Mehdi(as) called “AREEZA”which is in fact a letter to the Imam(as). This letter is written with much love and affection using Saffron as ink and is traditionally wrapped up in flour or pure soil and sprinkled with scents (Itar) and is thrown in a river with the intention that it reaches our beloved Imam-e-Zamana(as). Failing a water body near you – it may be buried in soil where no feet or animals pass over it.

Brother Masoom Abidi adds:

(a) According to Imam Ali Ibn Moosa Ar Rizaa (AS) it is highly desirable to pray Namaaz of Jaafar-e-Tayyar tonight.

(b) Imam Jaafar Ibn Muhammad As Saadiq (AS) has advised the faithfuls to pray 2 rakaat namaz tonight after the Ishaa prayers. In the first rakaat recite surah hamd and sureh Kaafiroon and in the second Rakaat recite sureh Al Fathihah and sureh Al Iklaas. After the salaam recite Tasbih of Fatima Zahra (sa) and then the following dua:
