It is not prescribed to spend laylat a-nisf min Sha’ban in prayer or to fast on this day, or to single it out for certain acts of worship.

It is not permissible for Muslims to celebrate the night of Al-Isra’ and Al-Mi`raj because the Prophet and his Companions did not celebrate it and they did not single it out in any way.

It is permissible in Islam for men and women to wear silver rings. There is no basis for the belief that wearing silver rings in Rajab will get one closer to Allah.

1. If a person misses the fast of ‘Ashoora’, it cannot be made up because there is no proof for that, and because the reward is connected to fasting on the tenth day of Muharram, and that time has passed. 2. If a person is excused for not fasting – such as women who are menstruating or bleeding following childbirth, or those who are sick or are travelling – and he usually fasts on that day or he had the intention of fasting that day, then he will be rewarded for his intention.

Uttering the intention out loud when one is going to pray is bid`ah whether that is for Tarawih prayers or any other prayer.
