22 Rajab Niaz (kounday)

22 Rajab Niaz E Imam Jafar-e-Sadiq a.s

   

 

in order to do niaz it is suggested that

momin/momannen/nat should get up early in

the morning of 22 Rajab and should clean the house and purify themselves by taking

Ghusal (bath/shower), put on fragrance (etar) and lit agar bate/use air freshener in

their home and spread a clean ‘tahir’ sheet

in a clean room. One should make sure all

the utensils to be used in the preparation of niaz are clean and Pak.

Procedure For Preparing Niaz

Make dough of approximately one kilogram

and a quarter of flour ‘mayda’ and

prepare 14 pieces of bread ‘pooriyan’ and short sweet bread ‘tikiyan’ (which are

sweet bread and small in size like pan cakes

) and fry them in oil. Prepare some

semolina ‘halwa’ as well
 

For khas niaz take out 7 pooriyan and 7 tikiyan and some halwa in clean and pure pots

and place pots containing Niaz facing Qibla.

After praying Fajar prayers read the

following mojiza of Imam Jafar-e-Sadiq

sws

and after that offer niaz, and make prayers.

One should take extra care in consuming

khas niaz and better not allow any one to

take the ‘khas niaz’ the selected portion, out of

house as it is considered disrespectful.

The other food to be prepared may be give

n out to take away by momaneen. The niaz

is also part of a celeb

ration, a day on which Allah

azwj

relieved momaneen from one of

the worst muslim rulers, who was trying to kill and eliminated shian-e-Ali a.s

.
