KARACHI: Muslims in Pakistan mark the night of forgiveness or Shab-e-Barat by visiting mosques and the graves of family members.

It is believed that if one prays throughout the night for forgiveness, their sins are forgiven. The night is devoted to seeking forgiveness for past sins, and for good fortune in the coming year.
