Rajab al-Morajjab
Rajab month has approached us, and this means that, in one order, we are approaching holy Ramadan, i.e. the greatest feast of Allah. In another order, Rajab means that the Almighty Allah is re-opening the special gates of Mersey. Definitely, the biggest Mersey gate that the Almighty Allah has ever opened has been the birth of the commander of faithfuls, Ali ibn Abi Talib (PBUH).
Several recommendations have been given by Ahl al-Bait for the believers to perform in this month. Just refer to Mafaatih al-Jinan and find lots of the means of getting the bonuses of Allah in this month. You may fancy reciting the dua of “yaa man arjuh” (یا من ارجوه) [http://www.duas.org/rajab3.htm] after every prayer. Interestingly, you can find some dua pieces issued from the site of Imam Mahdi (May Allah Advent His Great Return) as dua recommendations from our current Imam. Also, there are some short phrases that you can whisper while walking, biking, driving or on board. Fasting and visiting Imam Hussain (PBUH) by reciting Ziaarat Ashuraa has been highly recommended. For a list of a’maal in Rajab, you may visit: http://www.duas.org/rajab4.htm
And another important point, do not forget to pray for your brothers and sisters whole around the world, particularly, the Shia ones.
Let’s hope we will get enough of this month to prepare ourselves for the next step, Sha’baan.

* We have just passed the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hassan Askari (PBUH) which means that the leadership of Imam Mahdi (may Allah hasten his advent) has just started its anniversary for 1172nd year. So, happy anniversary, and we will say our congratulations to him with reciting his own special salavaat. Also, in order to respect the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hassan Askari (PBUH), his special salavaat will be recited. For a short history about Imam Hassan Askari (PBUH), you may find this link useful: http://zahrakarimi.blogfa.com/post-30.aspx. Further to that, 9th of Rabi’ al-Awwal is the anniversary of the earth-to-hell migration of the second usurper of the leadership of Imam Ali (PBUH) from . He and his companions falsely occupied the high position of Imam Ali (PBUH) that had already been appointed by the Messenger of Allah (PBUH&HF), and destroyed the stream that the Prophet had developed for directing human being for ever. Therefore, we will recite Dua Sanamy Quraysh – which is the dua that the Commander of the Believers (PBUH) used to recite in his qonut part of his prayers – to see the viewpoint of Ahl al-Bait to those usurpers.
** As there are some nice traditions about the topic of love and hate, which are worth mentioning, we will review them for this week, and will carry on discussion on Dua Nodbah by next week, God willing.
Please introduce the website to your friends studying or living in Liverpool. Thanks.
Hope to see you all again.
