«صِيَامُ شَهْرٍ بِعَشَرَةِ أَشْهُرٍ وَسِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ بَعْدَهُنَّ بِشَهْرَيْنِ فَذَلِكَ تَمَامُ سَنَةٍ»

that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Fasting a month is equal to ten months (30 days x 10 rewards = 300 days of reward), and fasting six days after it is equal to two months (6 days x 10 rewards = 60 days of rewards); that is a complete year (300 + 60 = 360 days of reward),” meaning the month of Ramadan and six days after it.
