The night of Baraaр is a sacred night that occurs on the 15th day of the month of Shaʼaban. In Arabic the word "Baraah" means "purification." It is reported from the words of Abu Musa al-Ash'ari that the Messenger of Allah said: "Allah looks (at his slaves) during the night which in the middle of Sha'ban, He forgives all his creatures, except for the polytheist and the one who keeps in his heart malice." (Collection of ibn Maja)

It is advisable to perform additional prayers, read the Koran, make dhikrs and dua.

On the feast of the believers turn to Allah, ask him to forgive sins, beg forgiveness and mercy of Allah. They analyze their lives, their deeds, repent of their sins. Muslims also forgive old grievances and ask for forgiveness from those whose offender they have become. It is believed that the reason believers should get rid of anger, pride, bad thoughts and enmity. In the Night of Bara'ah Muslims wear clean festive clothes, read the Quran and go to visit their parents. This night it is customary to perform good deeds: giving alms to the poor, help the needy, to treat children with sweets.
