Question
What is Laylatun Noor? We have never heard of this practice in all the decades of our life. Is there any basis in the Sunnah for Laylatun Noor which is becoming an annual practice?
Answer
Laylatun Noor is another confounded bid'ah of those pursuing nafsaani objectives. It is not permissible to participate in this new bid'ah which the miscreants have innovated. With new innovations they seek to promote their image to gain a greater following. A large following is a lucrative way of monetary gain, and for the acquisition of donations for pet projects.
