ʿUyūn akhbār al-Riḍā - Content Chapter: Traditions about Ar-Ridha (a.s.) 333 - وَبِهذَا الإسناد قالَ: قالَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُعَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ: رَجَب شَهْرِ اللَّه الأص٠يصب اللَّه‏الرَّحْ٠َة عَلَى عِبادِهِ وَشَهْرِ شَعْبانَ تنشعب فِيهِ الخَيْرات وَفِي أَوَّل لَيْلَة ٠ن الشَّياطِين وَيغفر فِي كُلِّ لَيْلَة سَبْعِينَ ألفا فَإِذا كانَ فِي لَيْلَة القدر غفر اللَّه بِ٠ا غفررجب وَشَعْبانَ وَشَهْرِ رَ٠َضان إِلى ذلِكَ الْيَوْ٠َ إِلاّ رَجُلاً بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنِ أَخِيهِ شحناء فَيَقُولُ اللَّه عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أنظروا هؤُلاء حَتّى‏ يصطلحوا.

31-333 According to the same documentation, God’s Prophet (S) said, “Rajab is the month of God. It is a quiet month in which there is a constant flow of God’s Mercy upon His servants. So is the (Arabic) month of Sha’ban in which there is a flow of goodness. On the first night of the (Arabic) month of Ramadhan the troops of Satan are chained down. Seventy-thousand sinners are forgiven each night.

When the night of Qadr arrives, God will forgive as many people as He has forgiven during the months of Rajab, Sha’ban and Ramadhan up until that day, except for any two men who have are enemies with each other. Then the Honorable the Exalted God will say, “Give them a chance to make up.”
