The first Friday night of Rajab is known as Lailatul Raghaib,
It is related that the person who recites Surah-al Yaseen before going to bed & Salatul- Lailatul Raghaib will be saved from the terror of the grave.
O He from whom I can hope for all goodness And I am safe from His anger at every evil.
O He who gives much in return of very little (Good Deeds)! O He who puts in the hands of the supplicant what he asks for,
O He who (also) let the needy, who does not ask for, have what he needs, though he remembers Him not,
Feels compassion, and takes pity on them!
Give me, for my request is only to You alone, All the good of this world and all the good of the Hereafter. Keep away from me, for my request is only to You alone, All the evil of this world and the evil of the Hereafter. For indeed it is not diminishing what is given by You. Increase (for) me from Your bounty, O The Generous.
O The Sublime and The Distinguished, O The Bountiful and The Magnanimous, O the Gracious and the Mighty, Save my grey hairs from the fire (of Hell).
Laylatul Raghaib Mubarak!

May Allah Almighty be pleased with you all. May He grant you happiness in this life and in the hereafter. May He honor you in both lives. May He reward you with His Beauty in the highest ranks of His Paradise.
Laylat al Raghaib Mubarak!
It is related from the Prophet SAS that Rajab is Shahrullah.Shahr means "month." Rajab is Shahrullah--the month of Allah. These words mean the following: "In the month of Rajab, Almighty Allah forgives countless servants who turn to him in repentance."
Laylat al Raghaib Mubarak!

We have thus entered a month in which Almighty Allah opens the gates of repentance and forgiveness. This is important for me to remind you about this. It is also an important opportunity for you to pull yourselves together, to do a self-accounting, to consider your shortcomings and deeds, to realize our mistakes, and to turn to Allah to beg for forgiveness.
Laylatul Raghaib Mubarak!

This is such a month. "Rajab is the month of Allah-- a month in which Almighty Allah accepts the repentances," said the Prophet SAS. He continued: "Sha'ban is my month, and Ramadhan is of my Ummah." That means we shall repent in Rajab and seek forgiveness from Allah. In Sha'ban, we shall try to be the special Ummah of the Prophet SAS. In Ramadhan, we shall try to receive the grace of Allah and rewards from Him for our deeds as the Ummah of the Prophet SAS.
Laylatul Raghaib Mubarak!
The first Friday night of Rajab is called Raghâ'ib Night. It could be any night from the first to the sixth night. This year it is the first night of Rajab. Raghâ'ib is the plural of raghîba which is something that is desirable, a reward, a gift or a favor. During this night, Almighty Allah bestows so much rewards, gifts and blessings for His servants. That is why the angels named this special night as Laylat-ur-Raghâ'ib. It is the night of grace and blessings that Allah bestows on His servants. That is we are in such a blessed night.
Laylat al Raghaib Mubarak!

Then, "The guardian angels, kirâmen kâtibîn angels, register the person as one who prayed throughout the night till the morning. The rewards will be registered in his record book till the morning for going to bed with wudhu." This is also something the Prophet SAS informed us about. Then, "The angels in heaven see the spiritual light of the person and understand that the person went to bed with wudhu. They gather around the person in large numbers forming a crowd." The Prophet SAS indicated that there will be so many angels around the person for his going to bed with wudhu. For this reason, making a fresh wudhu and offering two or four units of prayer before going to bed is a way of enlivening a night.
Laylat al Raghaib Mubarak!
فاذكرونى اذكركم
"So remember me; I will remember you" says Almighty Allah (Qur'an 2:152). When you say "Allah," Almighty Allah says your name, too. If a servant says "Allah" by himself, Allah says his name by Himself. If a person does the dhikr of Allah in a group of people, Almighty Allah does the dhikr of the person in a better group. Thus the servant gets closer to Allah, and Allah loves the servant. Then the love of Allah is formed in the heart of the servant eventually. That is why dhikr is one of the best ways of worship, and a night could be enlivened with dhikr.
Laylat al Raghaib Mubarak!

May Almighty Allah be pleased with you all.
