Holy Shab-e-Meraj observed

The holy Shab-e-Meraj was observed across the country on Monday night (January 27) with due respect and religious fervour.

The Muslims every year on the 27th night of the Arabic month of Rajab observe the Shab-e-Meraj.

Centering the occasion, Islamic Foundation organised a discussion and doa mahfil at Baitul Mukarram National Mosque after Zohr prayers on Monday highlighting the significance of the Shab-e-Meraj.

On this night, Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) had embarked on a special journey to meet the Almighty Allah.

In the journey, the Prophet (PBUH) travelled on the “Buraq” to heaven where Allah gave him instructions to take back to the faithful regarding the details of prayers.

Muslim devotees offered special prayers at mosques and homes seeking blessings of Allah for the welfare of the entire nation and the Muslim Ummah.
