وَعَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:
" إِذَا كَانَتْ لَيْلَةُ النِّصْفِ مِنْ شَعْبَانَ فَقُومُوا لَيْلَهَا وَصُومُوا يَوْمَهَا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى يَنْزِلُ فِيهَا لِغُرُوبِ الشَّمْسِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا فَيَقُولُ: أَلَا مِنْ مُسْتَغْفِرٍ فَأَغْفِرَ لَهُ؟ أَلَا مُسْتَرْزِقٌ فَأَرْزُقَهُ؟ أَلَا مُبْتَلًى فَأُعَافِيَهُ؟ أَلَا كَذَا أَلَا كَذَا حَتَّى يطلع الْفجْر ". رَوَاهُ ابْن مَاجَه
On the authority of Ali, may God be pleased with him, he said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “If it is the night of the middle of Sha`ban, then get up that night and fast On that day, God Almighty descends on it at sunset to the lowest heaven and says: Is there not one who asks for forgiveness, so that I may forgive him? Am I not seeking sustenance, so I may provide for him? Is he not afflicted so I can cure him? Except such-and-such until dawn comes.” Narrated by Ibn Majah
