Salaam-e-Jameel,

The mubarak lylatul me'raj 27th of Rajab - 30 August 2005 Tuesday, in which Allah Subhanahu blessed his Nabi (SA) the journey from Masjid al-Haraam to al-Masjid al-Aqsa where he led Anbiyaullah in Imamat. Allah then ascended his beloved Nabi (SA) beyond the 7th heaven to the sidratul muntaha. Mumineen should attend Maghrib/Isha Namaaz at the masjid and avail barakaat and sa'adaat in this Lylat al-Meraj.

It is a mubarak rasm to pray washeq namaz that is 22-rakat.

The 27th Rajab (31 August Wednesday) is Yuamal Mab'as (The day of elevation). It is the day when Rasulallah (SA) was elevated to the lofty and elevated position of Nabiullah. The day when the first relevation of the Quran was sent by Allah.

It is indeed a day of elevation for Mumineen who were blessed by the Ne'mat of Islam and Eman.

This is the day when all mumineen, even the youngest of babies do roza with the niyat that Allah would also elevate their station in His path. The roza is also commonly known as "Motius Su'alaat", which means "Answerer of prayers", in supplication to Allah.

The Du'at Mutlaqeen (AQ) observed a tradition of doing a waaz on this day, describing the eminence of Rasulullah's me'raj and mab'ath.

It is compulsory on all Mumineen/Muminat to attend the waaz and engross themselves in the zikr of Mohammed (SA) and Ale Mohammed (AS).

As a mubarak rasm to multiply the days bounties Duat Kiram have graced Ahle Walaa by the tajdid (renewal) of misaq, being the day of Islam.

On the 27th Rajab Wednesday Zohr/Asr Namaaz will be held at 1:00 PM followed by the majlis a-waaz. General misaq of all Mumineen will be held after the waaz. The majlis will end at 4 PM.

Wassalaam,
