ALLAHU AKBAR We must be sure of Allaahs absolute Wisdom in who He chooses as messengers from angels and mankind, and what He favors in certain times and places. Allaah Almighty favored Makkah over all other places and made Madeenah, the abode of the Prophets migration, next to Makkah in preference, then Bayt Al-Maqdis (Jerusalem) the abode of the majority of prophets. Allaah Almighty also favored certain months, days and nights more than others. The number of months are twelve, as mentioned in the Book of Allaah, when He Almighty created heaven and earth. Among them are four sacred months, i.e. Thul- Qi’dah, Thul- Hijjah, and Muharram, which are successive, and the month of Rajab that comes between Jumaada Al-Aakhirah and Sha’baan. The best day on which sun rises is Friday; the Night of Al-Qadr is better than a thousand months. Thus, you should hold estimable what Allaah Almighty esteemed. The people of knowledge have maintained that good deeds are multiplied in times and places which are favored by Allaah, and that the same applies to bad deeds, which will be regarded more grievous. The proof of this from Allaahs Book is His saying (which means): {They ask you about the sacred month – about fighting therein. Say, “Fighting therein is great [sin], but averting [people] from the way of Allaah and disbelief in Him and [preventing access to] al-Masjid al- Haraam and the expulsion of its people therefrom are greater [evil] in the sight of Allaah. And fitnah is greater than killing. And they will continue to fight you until they turn you back from your religion if they are able. And whoever of you reverts from his religion [to disbelief] and dies while he is a disbeliever – for those, their deeds have become worthless in this world and the Hereafter, and those are the companions of the Fire, they will abide therein eternally.} [Quran 2:217]
