Do not Exaggerate in Praising me as the Christians praised the son of Mary

Our Beloved Prophet ‎ﷺ and the Practice of Ghusl on Laila tul Qadr.

As mentioned earlier, in the last Ashara, and in particular on Lail atul Qadr, the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam would make Ghusl after Maghrib.

Anas bin Maalik and Zar bin Jaish state:

‘Lail atul Qadr is the 27th night so when it is that night each one of you should perform Ghusl, break the fast with milk and delay the food of Iftaar until Sehri.’
(Musannaf Abdur Razaaq)

Breaking the fast with just milk was encouraged to help stay awake at night.

It is narrated about the Tabiee Ibraheem Nakhi,

‘He would perform Ghusl in every night of the last Ashara of Ramadhaan.’
(Musannaf Abdur Razaaq)

Imam Muhammad bin Jareer At Tabiri describes the practice of the Aslaaf,

‘They preferred to perform Ghusl every night of the last Ashara of Ramadhaan.’
(Musannaf Abdur Razaaq)

Fragrance and good clothes

We also find that it was the practice of the Sahaaba and Taabieen to apply fragrance and wear good clothes on Lail atul Qadr. The Tabiee Thaabit Banaani reveals about the companion Tameem Daari

‘He had a hula that he bought for a thousand Dhirham and would wear it on the night he hoped was Lail atul Qadr.’

It is narrated about Anas bin Maalik

‘When the 24th night arrived (which he thought was Lail atul Qadr) he would wear a hula, trousers and blanket. In the morning he would put it away and not wear similar clothes until the following year.’

It is narrated about Ayub Sakhtiyaani

‘He would believe the 23rd night to be Lail atul Qadr and would perform Ghusl, apply fragrance and wear two new pieces of clothing.’
(Musannaf Abdur Razzaaq)

After quoting these practices Shaykh Haafiz Ibn Rajab writes
‘These reveal that just as in Eid and Jumuah it is also mustahab in the night one hopes is Lail atul Qadr to purify oneself with Ghusl, become fragrant with scent and adorn oneself in good clothes. Also it is similar to the command to wear good clothes for all prayers as Allah said ‘Take elegance in every Mosque.’
(Lataaif ul Muaarif) ...
