The holy month of RAJAB
Rajab
Month of the year: Rajab is the 7th month of the Islamic calendar.
The meaning of Rajab: The word ‘Rajab’ means to ‘respect’. The Arabs
respected this month tremendously and it was named Rajab. Rajab is a name of
a river in Jannah. Its water is whiter than milk and extremely sweet. Those who
fast in this month will be honoured to drink from it.
Tawhîd: Isrâ' and Mi'râj
Isrâ' literally means a journey by night and Mi'râj literally means an elevator, i.e.
an instrument which lifts something up. But, in Islam, Isrâ' refers to a miraculous
night journey made by the last prophet Hazrat Mohammed (saw) from Makkah to
Jerusalem and Mi'râj refers to the journey of prophet Hazrat Mohammed (saw)
from Jerusalem, up and out of the universe, through the seven heavens, and into
the direct presence of Allâh (swt)
