Question

Q)Is the following Hadeeth Saheeh?

Shabe Meraaj - 27th Rajab

There are deeds of 100 years of prayers for the one how does I'badah on the night of Shabe Me'raj.

Whoever prays 12 Raka'at (12 cycles) in this night. In every Raka'at recite Surah Fatihah and any other Surah from Quran.? After every 2 Raka'at recite Tashud and end the salat with Salam. (Means: Recite 12 Raka'at with four Salams, 2 Raka'at at a time)

After that recite this 100 times (After completion of 12 Raka'at's):

"SubHan Allaahi Wal Hamdulillahi Wa Laa ilaah illal Laaho Wallah Hoo Akbar"

"Astagfirullah" 100 times

Durood Sharif 100 times. (Any Durood you know)

And after that make Dua for his/her religious and worldly matters. Fast in the morning. Then ALLAH Ta'ala will accept all of his/her Duas. As long Duas are not made of sins. (Duas for sins will not be accepted)

(Kanzul Umaal, Part: 12; PP: 312-313; Hadis Number: 35170)

(Taken from: Ahyaul Uloomud Deen, Imam Ghazali, 450-505 hijri)

Hadrat Abu Hurairah Radiallah A'nhu stated:"Rasool ALLAH (Sallal Laho Alahi Wasallam) said that whoever fasted on 27th Rajab, they will get the Deeds of 60 months fasts.

Hadrat Aisha Siddiqah Radiallahu A'nha said that Rajab is that great month in which ALLAH Ta'ala increases the blessings of deeds many folds. Whoever fasted once in this month is like they fasted the whole year.

Answer

Assal?mu `alaikum Warahmatull?hi Wabrakatuh,

It is important that a person verifies a narration before quoting it or forwarding it to others.

There are three narrations in your query. All three are unacceptable.

H?fiz Ibn Hajar (Rahimahull?h Ta`?l?) (773-852) compiled a book named Taby?nul `ajab bi m? warada f? shahri Rajab, in which he gathered all the narrations regarding the month of Rajab and explained there as?n?d (chain of narrators). Below are some extracts from his book.

Summary of Arabic

No acceptable narration has been mentioned regarding the virtues of Rajab, or fasting during this month, or standing up in prayer at night. Im?m Ab? Ism?`?l al-Haraw? (Rahimahullah Ta`?l?) has also mentioned this with certainty. However, it is commonly accepted that scholars narrate ah?dith of virtue even though they are weak as long as they are not fabricated.

35169- " ?? ??? ??? ?????? ?? ??? ??? ????? ???? ??? ?????? ??? ??? ??? ?? ????? ???? ??? ???? ???? ???? ??? ????? ???? ?? ???? ???? ??? ???? ????? ?????. " ?? ????: ???? - ?? ????? ???????".

There is a day and night in the month of Rajab. Whosever stand the night and fasts the day, it will be as if he fasted for a hundred years and stood the night for a hundred years.

(Kanzul `Umm?l by `Al? Muttaq? al-hind? (Rahimahullah Ta`?l?) (975) with reference to Bayhaq? who narrated it on the authority of Sayyidun? Salm?n F?rs? (Radiyall?hu Ta`?l? `anhu) and he (Bayhaq? Rahimahullah Ta`?l?)) said it is munkar.

" ?? - ?? ???? ?? ???? ????: ?? ???? ?? ???? ????".

After quoting the above narration Shaykh `Al? Muttaq? al-hind? (Rahimahullah Ta`?l?) quotes the narration of perform 12 rak`at of sal?h as mentioned in your query. He comments on this narration by saying it is weaker than the one above.

Im?m Ghaz?l? (Rahimahull??Ta`?l?) did not mention references to the narrations he quotes in his book ihy?. Therefore, `All?mah `Abdur Rah?m ibnul Husayn famously known as al`Ir?q? (Rahimahull?h Ta`?l?) (725-806) who was the teacher of Hafiz Ibn Hajar (Rahimahull??Ta`?l?) dedicated a book to mentioning the narrations of Ihy? together with their references. Regarding the narration of salah in your query, he mentions that it is narrated through the chain of Muhammad ibn al-Fadhl who narrated form Ab?n who in turn narrates from Sayyiduna Ibn `Abb?s (Radiyall?hu Ta`?l? `anhu). Thereafter, he comments Muhammad ibn al-Fadhl and Ab?n are both extremely weak and this narration is munkar.

H?fiz Ibn Hajar (Rahimahull?h Ta`?l?) says the chain is fabricated.

Regarding the narration of Sayyiduna Ab? Hurayrah (Radiyall?hu Ta`?l? `anhu) as in your query, H?fiz Ibn Hajar (Rahimahull?h Ta`?l?) mentioned it under the section of fabricated narrations and said it is mawq?f with a weak chain of narrators.

Shaykh Ibnul Jawz? (Rahimahull?h Ta`?l?) (508-597) mentions that it is not permissible to use this narration as evidence.

The last narration is quoted from Sayyidatun? `?ishah (Radiyall?hu Ta`?l? `anh?). We found the above narration with the narration of `Abdul `Az?z ibn Sa`id who narrates from his father. This chain of narrators contains `Uthm?n ibn Matar who was considered as a fabricator by Ibn Hibb?n (Rahimahull?h Ta`?l?) scholars are unanimous that he was weak..

And Allah Ta??la Knows Best
