The Indian touch to the festival of Shab e barat (Awaz The Voice)

In Islam, there are only two main festivals of Muslims. Eid and Bakrid. However, Indian Muslims celebrate many other festivals that do not have importance ...

It has come out from the quoting of Sahabis (followers of Prophet Muhammad) that on this night we should make special prayer to Allah for the fulfillment of our wishes. There is a belief that all the sins of those who worship in Shab-e-Barat are forgiven. The religion of humanity has to be followed. But those who see Islam in the light of Hadith and the Quran do not believe in this. Looking at Shab-e-Barat from the point of view of 'Sahih Hadith', this night has its importance. In other words, the class of Muslims who have a deep impression of Indian culture, have no hesitation in preparing good dishes, distributing them, and doing Niyaz-Fatiha. According to the Islamic calendar, this night starts once a year after sunset on the 14th day of Sha'ban. In such a situation, every Muslim wants to pray for the whole night and ask Allah for something 'special' for him and his loved ones. The followers of Islam believe that Allah accepts their sincere prayers on this night. Muslims who worship on the night of Shab-e-Barat has a similar feeling. Some people also visit the graves of their forefathers before the Fajr Namaz and remember the deceased by praying and lighting candles at their graves. It’s akin to Diwali when people believe that Goddess Lakshmi will visit their house at night and will fulfill the wishes of the devotees.
