Kashmiri Muslims light candles on the graves of their relatives during the Shab-e-Barat observance on February 3, 2026. Shab-e-Barat is observed by Muslims on the 14th–15th night of Sha‘ban, the eighth month of the Islamic calendar. The night is marked by prayers and supplications, as believers seek forgiveness and hold the belief that God determines human destinies for the coming year. For Twelver Shia Muslims, the occasion carries added significance as it coincides with the birth anniversary of the 12th Imam, Muhammad al-Mahdi. Shia Muslims commemorate the night by lighting candles at the graves of relatives, illuminating homes and graveyards with lamps, offering prayers at burial sites, and observing nightlong prayers as expressions of devotion and remembrance of their Imam.
