Thereafter a proclaimer proclaims: \u201cIs there anyone seeking forgiveness that I may forgive him? Is there anyone who desires anything so that I may grant his wishes?\u201d Thus, Allah Ta\u2019ala fulfils the requests of those who seek of Him on this great night. This virtue is attained from the beginning of the night until the break of dawn.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, during the last portion of every night the same virtue is attained. Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) reports that Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi Wasallam) said: \u201cAllah Ta\u2018ala descends to the nearest heaven during the last third of every night. He then proclaims: \u201cIs there anyone who will make du\u2018aa unto me that I may accept his du\u2018aa? Is there anyone who will ask of me that I may grant him? Is there anyone who desires forgiveness that I may forgive him?\u201d (Saheeh Bukhaari #1145)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Thus while one should take full advantage of the Night of Baraa-ah, one should also make an effort to attain this virtue every night by rising in the last third of the night and engaging in Tahajjud Salaah and du\u2018aa.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>May Allah Ta\u2018ala grant us the ability to do so, aameen.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":18073,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18072","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-general"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alhaadi.org.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18072","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alhaadi.org.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alhaadi.org.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alhaadi.org.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alhaadi.org.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=18072"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/alhaadi.org.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18072\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18074,"href":"https:\/\/alhaadi.org.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18072\/revisions\/18074"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alhaadi.org.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/18073"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alhaadi.org.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=18072"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alhaadi.org.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=18072"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alhaadi.org.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=18072"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
