Does Allah Come Down To the First Heaven On the Night of the Fifteenth of Sha’ban?
There is no sahih hadith concerning the virtue of the night of the fifteenth of Sha’ban. With regard to Allah’s descending on the 15th night of Sha’ban, there are hadith which are weak, but the reports that He descends every night are proven and sahih, so the night of the fifteenth of Sha’ban is included in that. For more, please see the detailed answer.101,185Should Laylat al-Nisf min Sha’ban Be Singled Out for Worship?

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.73,304There is nothing wrong with offering du‘aa’ together after a lecture
