In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that Shab-e-Barat is meant for prayers and seeking Allah’s forgiveness, not for fasting or celebratory customs. He highlights that only one authentic hadith supports its significance, where Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) prayed for the deceased in Jannat-ul-Baqi. Practices like lighting lamps and fireworks are influenced by non-Islamic traditions and should be avoided. The true focus of the night is worship, repentance, and seeking mercy from Allah.
