As Salaamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakaatuh,
Rajabul Murajjab Welcomes You!
Tomorrow should be the 1st day of the Month of Rajab, therefore, tonight would be the 1st night of this blessed month. It is called Allah's (SWT) month.
It is highly recommended to perform much 'Amaal in this month, followed by the month of Sha'ban and then the month of Ramadhan. So, why wait until Shahru Ramadhan when we can begin our spritual journey in Rajab? I cannot stress the great importance Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) and the Imams gave for this month. Below is only a few:
The Prophet (SAWA) said: "Surely Rajab is the Month of Allah the Great. No Sacred (Haram)month from the Haram months comes close to it (there are 4 Haram months) nor rewards (like it). And fighting in it (Rajab) with the Kuffar (disbelievers) is forbidden. Is it not?! Surely Rajab is the Month of Allah, and Sha'baan is my month and Ramadhan is the month of my Ummah (Muslims). Is it not?! The one who fasts a day in Rajab it will be obligatory (to earn) Allah, the Greatest's, pleasures (Ridwaan), and keep away from him the anger of Allah, and lock up from him a door from the doors of the Fire."
Imam Musa Al-Kaazhim (AS), the 7th Imam said: "One who fasts a day in Rajab, the Fire (of Hell) is kept away from him for a year. And one who fasts 3 days in Rajab, the paradise will be compusory (Waajib) for him.
Imam Ja'far As-Saadiq (AS), the 6th Imam said: "The Messenger of Allah (SAWA) said: Rajab is the month of seeking forgiveness for my Nation (Ummatee), so seek forgiveness in it much, for surely He (Allah) is Forgiving, Merciful (ghafoorun raheem)."
It is highly recommended to recite:
"Astaghfirullaaha wa as-aluhut-tawba" "I seek forgiveness of Allah and I ask him for repentance"
Also,
The Prophet (SAWA) said to say the following (written below) in Rajab 100 times and complete this with paying Sadaqa. "...Allah will seal for him mercy and forgiveness, and one who says it 400 times Allah will write for him the reward of 100 shaheed (killed in the way of Allah):"
"Astaghfirullahal-lathee laa ilaaha illaa huwa waHdahu laa shareekalahu wa atoobu ilayh"
I seek forgiveness of Allah of which there is not god except Him, no partner for Him, and i turn to Him.
It is highly recommended to fast on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
Special/great emphasis has been paid to the first night and day of Rajab. It is highly recommended to pray in the night of the 1st and fast in the day of the 1st of Rajab (tomorrow).

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.}
(Holy Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
