Celebrating Shab E Barat - A Thread

Some Muslims celebrate the middle of Sha‘baan, fasting on that day and spending that night in prayer. There is a hadeeth concerning that which is not saheeh, hence the scholars regarded celebrating this day as an innovation

[THREAD] Why the Qadiyani (or Ahmadiya’a) community aren’t Muslims and Mirza Ghulam is an impostor ?

Mirza Ghulam was born in 1835 in India, he’s the founder of the movement claiming Islam. This movement is called "Ahmadiyya" or "Qadianiyya".

Coming from a Sunni and Sufi family, he would have been immersed very early in learning Islam and would have learned Arabic around the age of 10.

We will now see more about him and his sect :

In 1889, Mîrzâ Ghulam said that he had received a "revelation" from Allah designating him as the Mahdi and mujaddid.

First problem, the Mahdi must descend from the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and bear his name. What you need to know is that "Ahmad" is just a late addition to give credibility to his pseudo-prophecy.

My local mosque came up with a fantastic approach because of which scores of young boys who used to miss salah are attending regularly, Alhamdulillah. Even the FAJR!!!

(2:43) "Establish Prayer and dispense Zakah (the Purifying Alms) and bow in worship with those who bow."

We all know, Allah SWT had commanded us to establish prayer.
This is an Obligation on us.

If young people are taught something there are chances that they'll hold it firm+

It is with great grief that I'm saying sometimes in the Fajr, the imam and muazzin wait for at least one musalli to start the prayer.

This is disgrace. May Allah forgive us.

So in order to avoid such time in coming future, we must teach our kids with great care and concern.+

The mosque management of three mosques around my house have collectively decided that, if any of the kids from 6-10 classes attend all the salahs for 40 consecutive days, they will be awarded with a GRAND NEW BICYCLE.

For some reason if any kid, couldn't attend all the 40 days +

He will be awarded with some or other gift or monetary rewards, each kid will be given participatory gifts too at the least.

They've announced this at Friday prayer in probably all the mosque of our division, +

The Fiqh of Eid al-Adha:

1/10. The Eid Prayer is wajib. It consists of two rakats, with extra takbirs. The wisdom behind the Eid prayers, like the Eid days themselves, is to thank Allah for His countless blessings.

2/10. After the Eid prayer, there is a khutba. It is necessary to listen to this khutba, and everything disliked in the Friday khutba is disliked here.

3/10. In the first rakat of the Eid prayer, one gives 3 additional takbirs after the opening takbir and opening supplication but before reciting the Fatiha. One should raise one’s hands with each takbir (to one’s earlobes), as one does with the opening takbir.

After each takbir, one lets one’s hands rest at one’s sides.

One pauses briefly after each takbir.

One places ones hands together, right on left under the navel, after the third and final takbir.

After this, one recites the ta`wwudh (seeking refuge in Allah from Satan),...

...says the basmala (Bismillahi al-Rahman al-Raheem), and recites the Fatiha and another surah, as normal. The rest of the rakat is the same.

4/10. In the second rakat of the Eid prayer, one also gives 3 additional takbirs. These are given after one finishes reciting the...
