Many people ask, "Is fasting the 15th of Sha’baan Sunnah?" or "What are the virtues of the night of mid-Sha’baan?" In this video, we look at the rulings of major scholars like Sheikh Ibn Baz and Ibn al-Qayyim regarding the authenticity of the hadiths narrated about the 15th of Sha’baan. Is there a special prayer for the night of mid-Sha’baan? 🧐 According to the majority of scholars, including Ibn al-Jawzi, Ibn al-Qayyim, and Sheikh Ibn Baz, the narrations regarding specific rituals for this night are fabricated or extremely weak. Key Scholarly Rulings: Sheikh Ibn Baz (rahimahullah): "Celebrating the middle of Sha’ban by praying and setting aside a fast for that day is an innovation (Bid’ah)... there is no evidence for it in the pure Shariah." The Reality: There is no proven specialness for this night in the pure Sharia, neither from the Prophet ﷺ nor his companions. The Balance: We encourage fasting the 15th ONLY because it is part of the "White Days" (Ayyaam al-Beed) which fall on the 13th, 14th, and 15th of every lunar month. We fast because it is a Sunnah for every month, not because the 15th of Sha’baan has a unique status on its own. Let's stick to the authentic Sunnah and the proven teachings of Islam! 📚✨ Search Keywords: Many people ask "Is fasting the 15th of Sha’baan Sunnah?" or "What are the virtues of the night of mid-Sha’baan?"
