Degree of reliability of the Hadiths about the merit of mid-Sha‘ban
Degree of reliability of the Hadiths about the merit of mid-Sha‘ban Fatwa no. 884 'Is there anyone who seeks forgiveness that I may forgive them? Is there anyone who asks for sustenance that I may provide for them? Is there any afflicted person that I may relieve them?' and so on and on, until the break of dawn. Ibn Hibban ranked some Hadiths narrated in regard to the merit of spending the night of mid-Sha‘ban in Salah as Sahih, including the one reported in his Sahih, from ‘Aishah who said: I missed the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) during one night, so I went out to search for him, and I found him in Al-Baqi‘. He (peace be upon him) said (to her), ‘Did you fear being wronged by Allah and His Messenger?’ She said, ‘O Messenger of Allah! I thought that you had gone to one of your wives.’ He (peace be upon him) said, ‘Verily, Allah (may He be Glorified and Exalted) descends on the night of mid-Sha‘ban to the nearest heaven, and He forgives a number of people which exceeds the number of the sheep owned by Kalb (a tribe known for their sheep).’ Al-Bukhari and others ranked this Hadith as Da‘if (weak); most scholars say that the Hadiths narrated about the merit of the night of the middle of Sha‘ban and Sawm on its day are Da‘if. Ibn Hibban is known among the scholars of Hadith for not being strict in ranking Hadiths as Sahih. We sent it (this Qur’ân) down on a blessed night. Verily, We are ever warning [mankind that Our Torment will reach those who disbelieve in Our Oneness of Lordship and in Our Oneness of worship]. Therein (that night) is decreed every matter of ordainments. This is blatant error, and a distortion of the meaning of the Qur’an. What is meant by the blessed night in the Ayah is Laylat-ul-Qadr (the Night of Decree), as Allah states: Verily, We have sent it (this Qur’ân) down in the night of Al-Qadr (Decree) which is in Ramadan, based on the Hadiths reported in this regard, and because Allah says: The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Qur’ân, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong).
