Laylatul Qadr – Shab-e-Qadr ki Fazilat, Ibadat aur Dua

Laylatul Qadr (Shab-e-Qadr) Ramadan ke aakhri ashre ki woh raat hai jo Quran ke mutabiq “hazaar mahino se behtar” hai (Surah Al-Qadr 97:3). Isi raat Quran nazil hona shuru hua. Sahih Bukhari ke mutabiq jo shakhs is raat imaan aur sawab ki niyyat se ibadat kare, us ke pichhle gunah maaf kar diye jate hain. Nabi ﷺ ne is raat ko aakhri ashre ki taaq raaton (21, 23, 25, 27, 29) mein talash karne ka hukm diya aur yeh dua sikhayi: Allahumma innaka ‘afuwwun tuhibbul ‘afwa fa’fu ‘anni.

لیلۃ القدر رمضان کے آخری عشرے کی طاق راتوں میں سے ایک رات ہے جو ہزار مہینوں سے بہتر ہے۔ اس رات کی عبادت سے پچھلے گناہ معاف ہو جاتے ہیں اور اس کی مسنون دعا ہے: اللّٰہُمَّ اِنَّکَ عَفُوٌّ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّیْ۔

Surah Al-Qadr – Laylatul Qadr Quran ki Roshni mein

Allah Ta’ala ne is raat ke baare mein poori ek surah nazil farmayi:

إِنَّا أَنزَلْنَاهُ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ ﴿١﴾ وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ ﴿٢﴾ لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ ﴿٣﴾ تَنَزَّلُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَالرُّوحُ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِم مِّن كُلِّ أَمْرٍ ﴿٤﴾ سَلَامٌ هِيَ حَتَّىٰ مَطْلَعِ الْفَجْرِ ﴿٥﴾

Tarjuma aur mukhtasar tafseer

• Ayat 1 – “Beshak Hum ne is (Quran) ko Shab-e-Qadr mein nazil kiya”: Quran ka nuzool isi raat shuru hua. Surah Ad-Dukhan (44:3) mein bhi ise “mubarak raat” kaha gaya hai.
• Ayat 2 – “Aur aap kya jaante hain ke Shab-e-Qadr kya hai?”: yeh sawaliya andaz is raat ki azmat zahir karta hai.
• Ayat 3 – “Shab-e-Qadr hazaar mahino se behtar hai”: hazaar mahine taqreeban 83 saal 4 mahine bante hain; is ek raat ki ibadat is se bhi zyada behtar hai.
• Ayat 4 – “Is mein farishte aur Rooh (Jibraeel AS) apne Rabb ke hukm se har kaam ke liye utarte hain”: yeh Allah ki rehmat aur faislon ke nuzool ki raat hai.
• Ayat 5 – “Yeh raat fajr ke tulu hone tak salamti hai”: poori raat aman aur salamti wali hai.

Laylatul Qadr ki Fazilat – Sahih Ahadith se

• Pichhle gunahon ki maafi: Nabi ﷺ ne farmaya: jo Laylatul Qadr mein imaan aur sawab ki umeed ke sath qiyam kare, us ke pichhle gunah maaf kar diye jate hain (Sahih Bukhari 2014).
• Hazaar mahino se behtar: Quran (97:3) ki wazeh gawahi.
• Jahannam se azaadi: Ramadan ki har raat Allah kuch logon ko aag se azaad karta hai (Jami’ at-Tirmidhi 682, hasan). Yaad rahe ke “pehla ashra rehmat, doosra maghfirat, teesra jahannam se azaadi” wali mashhoor riwayat ko muhaddiseen ne za’eef qarar diya hai – lekin aakhri ashre ki khaas fazilat sahih ahadith se sabit hai.

Shab-e-Qadr Kab Hai? Taaq Raaton mein Talash

Hazrat Aisha (RA) se riwayat hai ke Nabi ﷺ ne farmaya: “Laylatul Qadr ko Ramadan ke aakhri ashre ki taaq raaton mein talash karo” (Sahih Bukhari 2017). Is liye 21, 23, 25, 27 aur 29 ki raatein (yani 20, 22, 24, 26 aur 28 Ramadan ke Maghrib ke baad shuru hone wali raatein) khaas tor par ibadat mein guzaarein. Bahut se sahaba, jaise Hazrat Ubayy bin Ka’b (RA), 27vi raat ko zyada umeed wali raat samajhte thay (Sahih Muslim 762), magar kisi ek raat ka yaqeeni ilm nahi diya gaya – behtar yahi hai ke poora aakhri ashra ibadat mein guzara jaye.

Nabi ﷺ ka Aakhri Ashra

Hazrat Aisha (RA) farmati hain ke jab aakhri ashra shuru hota to Nabi ﷺ apni kamar kas lete, raat bhar jaagte aur apne ghar walon ko bhi jagate thay (Sahih Bukhari 2024). Aap ﷺ in dino mein masjid mein i’tikaf bhi farmate thay. Yeh hamare liye sab se behtareen namoona hai.

Laylatul Qadr mein Kya Ibadat Karein?

Is raat ke liye koi makhsoos namaz (jaise “itni rakat mein har rakat mein Surah Qadr itni baar”) Quran ya sahih Sunnah se sabit nahi. Neeche diye gaye aamal Sunnah aur aam ibadat ke mutabiq hain:

• Qiyam-ul-Lail (nafl namaz): Taraweeh ke baad Tahajjud ki namaz, lambi qirat aur lambe sajde.
• Tilawat-e-Quran: tarjume ke sath tilawat aur tadabbur, kyunke yeh Quran ke nuzool ki raat hai.
• Dua aur istighfar: khaas tor par masnoon dua (neeche) aur sachchi tauba aur istighfar.
• Zikr: SubhanAllah, Alhamdulillah, La ilaha illallah, Allahu Akbar aur durood shareef – ginti ke liye Digital Tasbih Counter istemal kar sakte hain.
• Sadqa: aakhri ashre ki har raat thora sa sadqa dena taake Shab-e-Qadr mein bhi sadqa ho jaye.

Shab-e-Qadr ki Nishaniyan

Sahih Muslim (762) mein Hazrat Ubayy bin Ka’b (RA) ne bataya ke is raat ki nishani yeh hai ke us ki subah suraj saaf nikalta hai magar us ki shuaein (rays) tez nahi hotin. Baaz riwayaat mein raat ka mu’tadil (na zyada garam na zyada thandi) aur pur-sukoon hona bhi aaya hai. Yeh nishaniyan aksar raat guzarne ke baad samajh aati hain, is liye in ke intezar ke bajaye har taaq raat ibadat karein.
