Praying at Night in Ramadhan (Taraweeh) & the importance of The Night of Power
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Volume 3, Book 32, Number 226:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
I heard Allah's Apostle saying regarding Ramadan, "Whoever prayed at night in it (the month of Ramadan) out of sincere Faith and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Volume 3, Book 32, Number 227:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "Whoever prayed at night the whole month of Ramadan out of sincere Faith and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven." Ibn Shihab (a sub-narrator) said, "Allah's Apostle died and the people continued observing that (i.e. Nawafil offered individually, not in congregation), and it remained as it was during the Caliphate of Abu Bakr and in the early days of 'Umar's Caliphate."
'Abdur Rahman bin 'Abd ul-Qariy said, "I went out in the company of 'Umar bin Al-Khattab one night in Ramadan to the mosque and found the people praying in different groups. A man praying alone or a man praying with a little group behind him. So, 'Umar said, 'In my opinion I would better collect these (people) under the leadership of one Qari (Reciter) (i.e. let them pray in congregation!)'. So, he made up his mind to congregate them behind Ubai bin Ka'b. Then on another night I went again in his company and the people were praying behind their reciter. On that, 'Umar remarked, 'What an excellent Bid'a (i.e. innovation in religion) this is; but the prayer which they do not perform, but sleep at its time is better than the one they are offering.' He meant the prayer in the last part of the night. (In those days) people used to pray in the early part of the night."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Volume 3, Book 32, Number 228:
Narrated 'Aisha:
(the wife of the Prophet) Allah's Apostle used to pray (at night) in Ramadan.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Volume 3, Book 32, Number 229:
Narrated 'Urwa:
That he was informed by 'Aisha, "Allah's Apostle went out in the middle of the night and prayed in the mosque and some men prayed behind him. In the morning, the people spoke about it and then a large number of them gathered and prayed behind him (on the second night). In the next morning the people again talked about it and on the third night the mosque was full with a large number of people. Allah's Apostle came out and the people prayed behind him. On the fourth night the Mosque was overwhelmed with people and could not accommodate them, but the Prophet came out (only) for the morning prayer. When the morning prayer was finished he recited Tashah-hud and (addressing the people) said, "Amma ba'du, your presence was not hidden from me but I was afraid lest the night prayer (Qiyam) should be enjoined on you and you might not be able to carry it on." So, Allah's Apostle died and the situation remained like that (i.e. people prayed individually). "
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Volume 3, Book 32, Number 231:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, "Whoever fasted the month of Ramadan out of sincere Faith (i.e. belief) and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his past sins will be forgiven, and whoever stood for the prayers in the night of Qadr out of sincere Faith and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven ."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Volume 3, Book 32, Number 232:
Narrated Ibn 'Umar:
Some men amongst the companions of the Prophet were shown in their dreams that the night of Qadr was in the last seven nights of Ramadan. Allah's Apostle said, "It seems that all your dreams agree that (the Night of Qadr) is in the last seven nights, and whoever wants to search for it (i.e. the Night of Qadr) should search in the last seven (nights of Ramadan)."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Volume 3, Book 32, Number 233:
Narrated Abu Salama:
I asked Abu Sa'id, and he was a friend of mine, (about the Night of Qadr) and he said, "We practiced Itikaf (seclusion in the mosque) in the middle third of the month of Ramadan with the Prophet . In the morning of the 20th of Ramadan, the Prophet came and addressed us and said, 'I was informed of (the date of the Night of Qadr) but I was caused to forget it; so search for it in the odd nights of the last ten nights of the month of Ramadan. (In the dream) I saw myself prostrating in mud and water (as a sign). So, whoever was in l'tikaf with me should return to it with me (for another 10-day's period)', and we returned. At that time there was no sign of clouds in the sky but suddenly a cloud came and it rained till rain-water started leaking through the roof of the mosque which was made of date-palm leaf stalks. Then the prayer was established and I saw Allah's Apostle prostrating in mud and water and I saw the traces of mud on his forehead."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Volume 3, Book 32, Number 234:
Narrated 'Aisha:
Allah's Apostle said, "Search for the Night of Qadr in the odd nights of the last ten days of Ramadan."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Volume 3, Book 32, Number 235:
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
Allah's Apostle used to practice Itikaf (in the mosque) in the middle third of Ramadan and after passing the twenty nights he used to go back to his house on the 21st, and the people who were in Itikaf with him also used to go back to their houses. Once in Ramadan, in which he practiced Itikaf, he established the night prayers at the night in which he used to return home, and then he addressed the people and ordered them whatever Allah wished him to order and said, "I used to practice Itikaf for these ten days (i.e. the middle 113rd but now I intend to stay in Itikaf for the last ten days (of the month); so whoever was in Itikaf with me should stay at his place of seclusion. I have verily been shown (the date of) this Night (of Qadr) but I have forgotten it. So search for it in the odd nights of the last ten days (of this month). I also saw myself (in the dream) prostrating in mud and water." On the night of the 21st, the sky was covered with clouds and it rained, and the rain-water started leaking through the roof of the mosque at the praying place of the Prophet . I saw with my own eyes the Prophet at the completion of the morning prayer leaving with his face covered with mud and water.

Volume 3, Book 32, Number 240:
Narrated 'Ubada bin As-Samit:
The Prophet came out to inform us about the Night of Qadr but two Muslims were quarreling with each other. So, the Prophet said, "I came out to inform you about the Night of Qadr but such-and-such persons were quarreling, so the news about it had been taken away; yet that might be for your own good, so search for it on the 29th, 27th and 25th (of Ramadan).

Volume 3, Book 32, Number 241:

Maybe one of my arabic speaking brothers or sisters could help me. The two underlined words in English are synonyms, contains a similar meaning. Is this true in the arabic as well? I am guessing not. May Allah Reward whoever answers.

Sahih al Bukhari Hadith Volume # 3 Hadith # 124 Narrator: Ibn Umar (RadiAllahu Anhu)
When do we start fasting?
heard Allah's Apostle (SalAllahu A'layhe Wassalam) saying <b>"When you see the crescent (of the month of Ramadan), start fasting, and when you see the crescent (of the month of Shawwal), stop fasting; and if the sky is overcast (and you can't see it) then regard the month of Ramadan as of 30 days." </b>

Sahih al Bukhari Hadith Volume # 3 Hadith # 127
Narrator: Abu Huraira (RadiAllahu Anhu)
<b>Allah is not in need of you leaving your food and drink The Prophet (SalAllahu A'layhe Wassalam) said, "Whoever does not give up forged speech and evil actions, Allah is not in need of his leaving his food and drink (i.e. Allah will not accept his fasting.)" </b>

Sahih al Bukhari Hadith Volume # 3 Hadith # 118
Narrator: Abu Huraira (RadiAllahu Anhu)
`Fasting is a shield' Allah's Apostle (SalAllahu A'layhe Wassalam) said, "Fasting is a shield (or a screen or a shelter). So, the person observing fasting should avoid sexual relation with his wife and should not behave foolishly and impudently, and if somebody fights with him or abuses him, he should tell him twice, 'I am fasting." The Prophet (SalAllahu A'layhe Wassalam) added, "By Him in Whose Hands my soul is, the smell coming out from the mouth of a fasting person is better in the sight of Allah than the smell of musk. (Allah says about the fasting person), 'He has left his food, drink and desires for My sake. The fast is for Me. So I will reward (the fasting person) for it and the reward of good deeds is multiplied ten times."
.................................................................................................
Sahih al Bukhari Hadith Volume # 7 Hadith # 811
Narrator: Abu Huraira (RadiAllahu Anhu)
<b>`Fasting is for Me and I shall reward for it' </b>
The Prophet (SalAllahu A'layhe Wassalam) said, "(Allah said), 'Every
good deed of Adam's son is for him except fasting; it is for Me, and
I shall reward (the fasting person) for it.' Verily, the smell of
the mouth of a fasting person is better to Allah than the smell of
musk."

So sorry for this delay, i m sure u know it was not intentional. Alhamdulelah
I just saw it now.
I checked the hadeeth in Arabic. Matter of fact, to be honest with u, I m not good at checking hadeeth thru the volume xyz and book so and so.
But I made a search on the hadeeth that I already know Alhamdulelah, yet made sure to confirm on Muhadith. I found like 3 narrations. All share the same wordings of yes in the past or pervious. I can imagine that the translator just wanted to use a different word for style wise. But both words in Arabic are ma taqadam which translates as what has been before. This is a literal translation.
Alhamdulelah I was able to seize the cannot miss chance. Allah Knows how much I need all of this...
U go man teach it to your children and who ever u meet pls..... [img]style_emoticons/default/smile.gif[/img]

Dan I m not sure if I did answer your question, however, coming back home today I thought u might have been looking for more explanation.
Well to do so thru my humble knowledge.
The Messenger salla Allah a`lyhee wa sallam is saying here that one who fasts the whole month of Ramadan due to the belief of the importance of fasting and in obedience to Allah Who Ordrained it in addition to devoting the fast sincerely to Allah, shall be rewarded with the elimination of his/her sins committed during the past year.
While observing the night of Qdar using the recommended means for this, including prayer, reciting Quran all night. Just this one night will also result into the same rewared. Thus, a Muslim who is advantaged of performing both shall gain the double reward.
Hope I helped.... any input.
