Understanding Shab-e-Barat: The Night of Forgiveness and Spiritual Renewal
Shab-e-Barat
The night of Shab-e-Barat is when Muslims who are repentant are forgiven of their sins and their prayers are answered by Allah (SWT). Muslims believe that Allah (SWT) determines every living thing’s destiny for the upcoming year on this night. Muslims are urged by this to pray and beg for forgiveness tonight.
To reap the benefits, some Muslims also decide to fast and offer more prayers during the night and on this day.
