Translator’s Note
All praise is due to Allah. Choicest Peace and Blessings upon the most Beloved in
Allah’s Creation, our Master and our Leader Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa , and
upon His ¡ Noble Family and illustrious Companions, and upon all those will
follow the path of righteousness.
By the Grace of Allah, the Mercy of Sayyiduna Rasoolullah  and the Karam of
Ghauth o Khwaja Raza, and my Masha’ikh especially Huzoor Taajush Shariah,
Huzoor Muhad’dith Kabeer and Huzoor Syed Shah Turabul Haq (Alaihir Rahma),
you have before you a booklet which is the translation of an Urdu article prepared
by Hazrat Allama Mufti Ata ul Mustafa Qaadiri Amjadi, who is the beloved son of
Huzoor Sayyidi Muhad’dith e Kabeer Allama Zia ul Mustafa Qaadiri Amjadi (Allah
exalt his status). Mufti Ata ul Mustafa has prepared a very concise yet
knowledgeable article on the excellence of the month of Sha’baan and the
virtuous actions to be performed on the eve of Bara-at. We have named this
booklet ‘The Virtues of Sha’baan & Virtuous Actions of Shab e Bara-at’. May
Allah bless him with the best of rewards for his determined effort. Aameen
It is my humble Dua that this booklet will be a means of benefit for all those who
read it. I must humbly request that not only should we read these Deeni Books,
but we should make a sincere effort to make Amal (practice) in accordance with
what we have read.
I would like to thank all those who assisted in proofing this document and making
other valuable suggestions, especially Hazrat Maulana Mohammed Shakeel Qadiri
Ridawi (London, U.K.) for going through this document and also furnishing the
Dua e Nisf Sha’baan and the Transliteration. I pray that Allah rewards him with
the best of rewards. Aameen.
