On this 40th day of the Prayers card project, let us reflect on the importance of 'Araba'in' which is translated as forty, chillah, i'tikāf:

"It is said in verse (7:142): "And when We did appoint for Mûsa thirty nights (of solitude) and added to them ten, and he completed the whole time of forty nights appointed by his Lord." On this occasion although Hazrat Mûsa had done the ibādat of forty days and nights, but in the mention of nights only, there can be many wisdoms. One wisdom, according to the Holy Qur'an (73:6), is that the vigil of the night is most effective in crushing the carnal soul and in acquiring good speech. The ibādat of the above-mentioned time is both chillah as well as i'tikāf." [Source: A Thousand Wisdoms, Tawil 38] |
