The Holy Prophet said: “Sha'abaan is my month”.
Imam Ali bin Husayn Al Zanul Aabideen (A.S.) told his companions:
“The Holy Prophet (S.A.) used to observe fast during the whole month of Sha'abaan. Therefore whoso, in love of the Holy Prophet (S.A.), wishes to seen nearness to Allah and receive bounties, favors and rewards in this world and in the Hereafter, must connect Sha'abaan with RAMazaan (in the matter of fasting and special prayers).
[ To be carried out on every day of the month of Sha'abaan].
(1) Observe fast.
(2) Give Alms in the name of Allah.
(Giving alms in the month of Sha'abaan has been strongly recommended).
(3) Recite 70 times:
9 ÃóÓúÊóÛúÝöÑõ Çááøóåó æó ÃóÓúÃóáõåõ ÇáÊøóæúÈóÉó
(i) I seek forgiveness of Allah, and, repentant, beseech Him.
(ii) I seek forgiveness of Allah who is “There is no God save He”, the Beneficent, the Merciful; the Everliving, the Eternal, and I turn repentant to Him

The above dua can be recited at any time in the month of RAMadhan. It should be recited with the presence of heart and with the intention of seeking nearness to God and getting His rewards.
It is highly desirable to observe fast on 1st, 2nd and 3rd Shaa’baan, and pray every night a 2 Rak—a’t Namaaz.
In every Rak—a’t, after the recitation of Soorah Al Faatih’ah, recite Soorah Al Ikhlaas 13 times.
The third day of Sha’aban is a day of blessing because Imam Husain bin Ali was born in this day in the fourth year of Hijra. According to Imam Hasan bin Ali al-Askari (a.s.) it is highly desirable to observe fast today and recite the following dua:

* The friends and followers of the “Ahlulbayt” gather to celebrate the birth of Imam Husain (a.s.) in the name of the “Jashn” and sing praises of Allah, the Holy Prophet (pbuh) and his Holy Ahlulbayt.
Celebration and commemoration are the two sides of one coin. We use this coin to seek nearness to Allah, His last Holy Prophet (pbuh) and his Holy Ahlulbayt.
It is highly desirable to keep fast today.
We can give expression to our joy and happiness in whatever manner available or suitable to us keeping in view the life style of our beloved “14 Infallibles”, and the tenets of Islam, but at all events obligatory rules of conduct (Namaz and other essentials) have to be carried out; and in addition special prayers and duas (supplications) must be prayed in the name of the Holy Imam we call to our memory today.
13th, 14th and 15th of Rajab, Sha'abaan and RAMzan are know as “Ayyam Bayz” (the days of surpassing splendour)
[Imam Jaa’-far bin Muhammad As Saadiq (A.S.) had said:
Whoso prays during the nights of “Ayyam Bayz”, in fact, stands at the door of superabundant favours, bounties and benefits available in these months].
It is highly desirable to observe fast on 13, 14 and 15, have a bath each day, and give alms in the way of Allah.
The fifteenth of Sha’aban
The Holy Prophet (pbuh) had said that during the night of 15th Shaa’baan the Almighty takes decisions in the matters of sustenance, life and death and welfare of the people.
Next to the “Night of Qadr” the night of 15th Sha’abaan is the most auspicious night. According to the Holy Imam Muhammad bin Ali al-Baqir (a.s.) and Jafar bin Muhammad al-Sadiq (a.s.) the Almighty Allah has promised to fulfill every legitimate desire put forward to Him tonight.
SPECIAL PRAYERS AND A’AMAAL
(1) Take bath and put on clean clothes.
(2) Keep vigil the night long in prayers till dawn.
(3) Recite Ziyaarat of Imam Husain (a.s.).
(4) Recite Dua-e Kumayl.
(5) Recite: Subhanallah, 100 times Alhamdulillah 100 times, Allahu Akbari 100 times Laa Ilaha Ellallah 100 times.
(6) Recite the following Dua which has been recommended by Imam Hasan Askari to welcome the birth of our living Imam who was born on fifteenth of Shaa’baan:

Translations: O my Allah I beseech Thee in the name of he who was born today, to whom (Thou) promised martyrdom before he gave light (to the world) like a new moon on his birth; the heavens and the earth and those dwelling therein fell into the silence of remorse when he set foot in this world,
the harassed grief-stricken head ofs as closely connected strong group of familiar friends of people who will win victory on the day the final attack (on the usurpers and tyrants) will be launched—an equivalent recompense for his martyrdom; his direct descendants are the Holy Imams (Guide—Leaders); the soil of his resting abode provides effective help, a sure remedy; he shall attain his end alongwith his successors from among his descendants, when their “Qaa—im” (Living Imam) shall come back and take hold of the persecutors and cheaters, put an end to vengeful stupid wars, and thus fulfill the task the Omnipotent has entrusted to them, and be the best helpers; blessings of Allah be on them at all times, times than go by and times that set in
O my Allah, therefore, in their names, unto Thee, I turn to get a hearing and make a request—it is the request of an accused, aware of the wrong done by him to his ownself, in negligence, day in and out—to seek Thy protection until covered with earth in the grave.
O my Allah send blessings on Muhammad and on his children and raise us (on the day of resurrection in the group of his associates, give us an abode near him in the eternal land of bliss and happiness.
O my Allah just as Thou obliged us with the awareness of his true substance please also promote our close friendship with him, sustain us so far, dedicated, we are useful to his mission, trying to overtake one another, keep us among those who willingly follow his instructions and guidance.
And every time, whenever we mention his name, invoke Thee to send blessings on him and on all his successors, his chosen family, the Twelve Bright identified by Thee, Thy decisive arguments over all mankinds.
O my Allah equip us today with the best maturity and education to carry on successfully the demands of Thy mission just as Husayn had been put in readiness by his grandfather, Muhammad (S.A.); and just as Futrus (an Angel) found tranquility in his (Husayn’s) cradle, let us get peace of mind at his “resting abode” where we go to pronounce the profession of true faith and await his return. Be it so, O Lord of the worlds.

(“O my Allah! I am before Thee, a needy, afraid of Thy displeasure, but hopeful of receiving Thy protection. O my Allah do not substitute my name (from the list of the faithfuls), nor let my body (material aspects) undergo a change, nor put me to severe test and trial, nor subject me to the enemy’s ridicule. I take refuge with Thy forgiveness to avoid Thy retribution. I take refuge with Thy mercy to avoid Thy punishment. I take refuge with Thy indulgence to avoid Thy displeasure. I take refuge with Thee from Thee. Glorious and sublime is Thy praise as Thou praises Thyself, but above and beyond that which the best orators say.”)
It is reported that Imam Jafar-e-Sadiq (A.S.) used to recite the following Dua on the last day of Sha`aban and first day of RAMadhan. This Dua bears great merits:-

O` Allah! This is the blessed month in which was revealed Quran a guidance for men-kind and clear evidence of guidance and discrimination (of the right from the wrong) is being witnessed by us. You therefore keep us healthy in it and keep us sound in our faith in it and accept it from us in a state of prosperity and health granted to us by You.
O` Allah! I ask You to provide me with a way towards all good and keep me away from all that You likes not- O` the Most Merciful!
O` Who forgave me and forgave me all my misdeeds committed secretly.
O` Who punished me not for my disobedience! Your forgiveness. Your forgiveness! Your forgiveness!
O` the Generous! O` my Allah! You did admonish me but I responded not, You did chide but I cared not for it, what excuse have I now?
Pardon me O` the Generous! Your pardon! Your Pardon!
O` Allah! I beseech you for ease at the time of my death and forgiveness at the time of reckoning (on the day of resurrection). Sins of Your slave are great (in number) but forgiveness from You should serve my purpose well. O` the One deserving to be feared and fitted to pardon. Your pardon! Your Pardon!
O` Allah! I am Your bondman son of Your bondman and son of Your slave girl, I am weak and stand in need of Your Mercy. You are Omnipotent and Mighty. You have reckoned their deeds and accordingly distributed to them their livelihood and made them creation after creation of different languages and colours.
The People know not what You know and esteem You not with the estimation due to You and all of us stand in need of Your mercy- “Turn not You Your face away from us and ordain in Your decree to make me among Your creature virtuous in deeds and hopes.
O` Allah! Keep me alive to live the life of righteousness and cause me to die the best death in a state of love (in my heart) towards Your friends and in a state of enmity towards Your enemies and with a desire to meet you and fearing You and with humility and fulfilling the promise and submitting to Your will, testifying Your Book and following the life-pattern of Your Messenger.
O` Allah! Remove from my heart any doubt, disbelief, disappointment, in intoxication, conceit insolence, vanity, show, desire from fame, disagreement, hypocrisy, infidelism, transgression, disobedience, pride or any thing that You love not.
I therefore ask You to grant me faith (Eeman) according to Your promise and inspire me to fulfil Your promise and pleasure to willingly accept Your decree and piety (ascetism) in the world and a desire of that which is with you (good) impression, mental tranquility and sincere-penitence. I ask You O` Lord! of the Worlds.
O` my Allah! disobedience to You is due to Your forbearence, and obedience is due to Your generosity and magnanimity as if You were never disobeyed. I and he who never disobeyed are the dwellers of Your earth. You therefore with Your grace pardon me and invite us to You with Your goodness. O` the Most Merciful! And bestow on Mohammad and his progeny Your everlasting and unlimited blessings which neither could be reckoned nor appreciated by any one except You. O` the Most Merciful!
O` Allah! Send Your Blessings on Mohammad and his progeny, Ameen.
