Ramadan Mubarak
Reward for Fast
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (Radi allahu ta'ala anhu) has narrated that the Beloved and Blessed
Prophet (Rasoolullah
Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has said:
‘For every act of piety, man is rewarded ten to seven hundred times more. Allah
(Azza wa jal) said (except
fasting, because fasting is for Me and I will give its reward Myself).
Allah (Azza wa jal) also says, ‘Man refrains
from satisfying his desires and eating food for My pleasure. There are two glad
tidings for the man who fasts; one at the time of sunset and the other when he
meets his Rab (Azza wa jal). Allah (Azza wa jal) likes the smell emanating
from a fasting person’s mouth more than the fragrance of musk.’ (Sahih
Muslim, pp. 580, !adiš 1151)
There is another saying, ‘Fasting is a shield; when any of you
fast, he should neither utter
words of indecency nor shout. If any one else abuses him or wants
to fight him, he should
say ‘I am fasting.’ (Sahih
Bukhari, pp. 624, vol. 1, Hadiš 1894)
