bid'ah, but in another book I read that one of the days on which it is
mustahabb to fast is the middle of Sha'baan… what is the definitive
ruling on this?
Praise be to Allaah.
There is no saheeh marfoo' report that speaks of the virtue of the
middle of Sha'baan that may be followed, not even in the chapterson
al-Fadaa'il (chapters on virtues in books of hadeeth etc.). Some
maqtoo' reports (reportswhose isnaads do not goback further than the
Taabi'een) have been narrated from some of the Taabi'een, and there
are some ahaadeeth, thebest of which are mawdoo' (fabricated) orda'eef
jiddan (very weak). These reports became very well knownin some
countries which were overwhelmed by ignorance; these reports suggest
that people's lifespans are written on that day or that it is decided
on that day whois to die in the coming year. On this basis, it is not
prescribed to spend this night in prayer or tofast on this day, or to
single it out for certain acts of worship. One should not be deceived
by the large numbers of ignorant people who do these things. And
Allaah knows best.
Shaykh Ibn Jibreen.
If a person wants to pray qiyaam on this night as he does on other
nights – without doing anything extra or singling this night out for
anything – then that is OK. The same applies ifhe fasts the day of the
fifteenth of Sha'baan because it happens to beone of the ayyaam
al-beed, along with the fourteenth and thirteenth of the month, or
because it happens tobe a Monday or Thursday. If the fifteenth(of
Sha'baan) coincides with a Monday or Thursday, there is nothing wrong
with that(fasting on that day), so long as he is not seekingextra
reward that has not been proven (in the saheeh texts). And Allaahknows
best.- -e-p - ▓███▓ Translator:->
