The holy Shab-e-Barat, known as the night of fortune, is being observed across the country tonight with due religious fervour and devotion. The devout Muslims spend the night at mosques and homes offering prayers, reciting from the holy Quran and seeking blessings from Allah for long life, peace, progress and happiness for themselves, their families, relatives and friends as well as the nation and the Muslim Ummah. They consider Shab-e-Barat as one of three most sacred nights and believe that on this night Almighty Allah decides the fate of all human beings fixing their `rizq` (livelihood) for the next year. The devotees across the country would visit graves and pray for the peace of the souls of beloved ones who are no more. Many will also visit the mazars, shrines of saints all over the country. Traditional foods like handmade rice-bread with beef and halwa would be prepared in the afternoon in the rural and urban areas across the country today. Many Muslims will fast on the following day. They will distribute food and sweets among the neighbours and the poor. Foods and money will be distributed among the destitute on the occasion.
