Question

Is there any virtue for fasting in the day and worshipping during the night on Me’araj on the 27 Rajab?

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

There is no special significance for fasting and making ibadah on the 27th of Rajab. For more details you may refer to the following article:

[1] مطلب في إحياء ليالي العيدين والنصف وعشر الحجة ورمضان قوله (وإحياء ليلة العيدين) الأولى ليلتي بالتثنية أي ليلة عيد الفطر وليلة عيد الأضحى

قوله ( والنصف ) أي وإحياء ليلة النصف من شعبان(الرد المختار ج2 ص25 سعيد)

لم يرد فى شهر رجب و لا فى صيامه و لا فى صيام شي منه معين و لا فى قيام ليلة مخصوصة فيه حديث صحيح يصلح للحجة (تبين العجب بما ورد فى رجب ص11)
