Q: Is Shab-e-Baraat considered a bid'ah? If someone keeps fast on Shab-e-Baraat for the sake of Allah, will this be a bid'ah as well?
A: There are virtues of Shab-e-Baraat. Although the authenticity of the Ahaadeeth is not of the highest level but many ulama recognise the significance of this night. Hence, to engage in ibaadat throughout the night is in keeping with the sunnat.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
