Significance of Rajab

Rajab is one of the four most sacred months of Islamic Calendar.  Prophet Mohammad (S.A.W.) has said that whoever fasts one day in Rajab will earn the pleasure of Allah (S.W.T.).

Imam Ali (A.S.) has said that whoever fasts on the first day, middle or last day of Rajab then his or her sins will be forgiven by Allah (S.W.T.).

Imam Jafer Sadiq (A.S.) has said that whoever fasts 3 days in Rajab he/she will be rewarded for one year of fasts for each day and whoever fasts for 8 days in Rajab will have an easy day of judgment and whoever fasts for the entire month of Rajab then Allah (S.W.T.) will earn the everlasting pleasure of Allah (S.W.T.).
