Do Ghusl tonite

A very Important night 17th of the Month of Ramadhan The Prophet (saws) and his small army of 313 Muslims were far outnumbered on the battlefield of Badr as compared to the enemy’s army. The Prophet (saws) prayed to Allah (swt) for victory despite the great odds against the Muslim army, and Allah sent his help.

 

إِذْ تَسْتَغِيثُونَ رَبَّكُمْ فَاسْتَجَابَ لَكُمْ أَنِّي مُمِدُّكُم بِأَلْفٍ مِّنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ مُرْدِفِينَ
 
“When you asked for help from your Lord, He answered you. Indeed I will aid you with a thousand of the angels in rows behind rows” – Sura 8 Anfal Aya 9

A seemingly impossible and hopeless situation became a great victory for the Muslims. Thus the impossible became possible through supplication/dua .Therefore on this night, pray for seemingly impossible wishes, and inshallah (god willing) they shall be fulfilled

Dua after namaz

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

يَا عَلِيُّ يَا عَظِيمُ

يَا غَفُورُ يَا رَحِيمُ

أَنْتَ الرَّبُّ الْعَظِيمُ

الَّذِي لَيْسَ كَمِثْلِهِ شَيْءٌ

وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْبَصِيرُ

وَهذَا شَهْرٌ عَظَّمْتَهُ وَكَرَّمْتَهُ

وَشَرَّفْتَهُ وَفَضَّلْتَهُ عَلَى الشُّهُورِ،

وَهُوَ الشَّهْرُ الَّذِي فَرَضْتَ صِيَامَهُ عَلَيَّ،

وَهُوَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْتَ فِيهِ الْقُرْآنَ

هُدَىً لِلنَّاسِ وَبَيِّنَاتٍ مِنَ الْهُدَى وَالْفُرْقَانِ

وَجَعَلْتَ فِيهِ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ

وَجَعَلْتَهَا خَيْراً مِنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ

فَيَا ذَا الْمَنِّ وَلا يُمَنُّ عَلَيْكَ

مُنَّ عَلَيَّ بِفَكَاكِ رَقَبَتِي مِنَ النَّارِ فِي مَنْ تَمُنُّ عَلَيْهِ

وَأَدْخِلْنِي الْجَنَّةَ

بِرَحْمَتِكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ

 

 

اللّهُمّ الْعَنْ قَتَلَةَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ

allahumma al`an qatalata ameeri almu´mineena
O Allah: (please do) withdraw your mercy from the killers of the Commander of the Believers (Ameer al-Mu’mineen Imam Ali)
