Jaabir (r.a.) narrated that the Prophet Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wassallam, said: The best of speech is the Book of Allah, and the best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wassallam. The most evil of affairs are the religious innovations. Every religious innovation is a bid’ah; every Bid’ah is misguidance; and every misguidance leads to the Hellfire! (Sahih Muslim)
INNOVATION ALERT - 'Shabe Baraat' Concerning the Islamic Hijri date of the 15th Sha'baan the Imaam, the 'Allaamah Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih al-'Uthaymeen (rahima-hullaah) was asked:
We see some people specifying the 15th of Sha'baan with particular supplications and reciting the Qur.aan and performing naafilah prayers. So what is the correct position concerning this?
The shaykh responded as follows:That which is correct is that fasting (specifically on) the 15th of Sha'baan or specifying it with reciting (the Qur'an) or making (particular) supplications has no basis (in Islam).
So the day of the 15th of Sha'baan is like any other 15th day of any other month.
From that which is known is that it has been legislated for a person to fast the 13th, 14th and 15th of every month, however, Sha'baan is characterised unlike the other months in that (except for Ramadan) the Prophet (salallahu`alaihe wa sallam) used to fast more in Sha'baan than any other month.
