Salaam-e-Jameel,

27th of Rajab - 20 August 2006 Sunday, is the mubarak laylatul me'raj, 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 and blessed him the with the honor of being dana fa tadalla. Mumineen should attend Maghrib/Isha Namaaz at the masjid and avail barakaat and sa'adaat of this auspicious night.

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

The 27th Rajab (21 August Monday) 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 Eid for all Muslims around the world. It is a day of elevation for Mumineen who are blessed by the Ne'mat of Islam and Eman.

It is the day when all Mumineen, even the infants, 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.

Du'at Mutlaqeen (AQ) have observed a tradition of doing a waaz on this day, describing the eminence of Rasulullah's me'raj and mab'ath, and bless Mumineen with the brakaat of Dua. 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 day's bounties, Duat Kiram have graced Ahle Walaa by the tajdid (renewal) of misaq, being the day of Islam.

On the 27th of Rajab Monday Zohr/Asr Namaaz will be held at 12:30 PM followed by majlis al-waaz. General misaq of all Mumineen will be held after the waaz.

After Magrib/Isha Namaaz all Mumineen Muminaat & Mehmaan are invited for salawaat jaman on 27th Rajab 1427H Monday.

Wassalaam,
