Salaah’s for Day of 27 th Rajab

 In his book entitled Misbah al-
Mutahajjid, Shaykh al-Tusi
mentions that al-Rayyan ibn al-Salt
is reported as saying that Imam
Muhammad al-Jawad (as) observed
fasting on the fifteenth and the
twenty-seventh of Rajab while he
was in Baghdad.
He then ordered us to offer the prayer
that consists of twelve units at each of
which Surah al-Fatihah and another
Surah should be recited. At the
accomplishment of this prayer, it is
recommended to recite Surahs al-
Fatihah, al-Tawhid, al-Falaq, and al-
Nas each 4 times.
