قَالَ الْحَارِثُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِنَا رَجُلٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ: إِيَاسٌ، رَفَعَ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، عَنْ سَلْمَانَ الْفَارِسِيِّ، قَالَ:

خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ آخِرَ يَوْمٍ مِنْ شَعْبَانَ فَقَالَ: يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، إِنَّهُ قَدْ أَظَلَّكُمْ شَهْرٌ مُبَارَكٌ، فِيهِ لَيْلَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ، فَرَضَ اللهُ صِيَامَهُ، وَجَعَلَ قِيَامَ لَيْلِهِ تَطَوُّعًا، فَمَنْ تَطَوَّعَ فِيهِ بِخَصْلَةٍ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ كَانَ كَمَنْ أَدَّى فَرِيضَةً فِيمَا سِوَاهُ، وَمَنْ أَدَّى فِيهِ فَرِيضَةً كَانَ كَمَنْ أَدَّى سَبْعِينَ فَرِيضَةً، فَهُوَ شَهْرُ الصَّبْرِ، وَالصَّبْرُ ثَوَابُهُ الْجَنَّةُ، وَهُوَ شَهْرُ الْمُوَاسَاةِ، وَهُوَ شَهْرٌ يُزَادُ فِيهِ رِزْقُ الْمُؤْمِنِ، مَنْ فَطَّرَ فِيهِ صَائِمًا كَانَ لَهُ عِتْقُ رَقَبَةٍ، وَمَغْفِرَةٌ لِذُنُوبِهِ. قِيلَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، لَيْسَ كُلُّنَا نَجِدُ مَا نُفَطِّرُ بِهِ الصَّائِمَ. قَالَ ﷺ: يُعْطِي اللهُ تَعَالَى هَذَا الثَّوَابَ مَنْ فَطَّرَ صَائِمًا عَلَى مَذْقَةِ لَبَنٍ، أَوْ تَمْرَةٍ، أَوْ شَرْبَةِ مَاءٍ، وَمَنْ أَشْبَعَ صَائِمًا كَانَ لَهُ مَغْفِرَةٌ لِذُنُوبِهِ، وَسَقَاهُ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مِنْ حَوْضِي شَرْبَةً لَا يَظْمَأُ حَتَّى يَدْخُلَ الْجَنَّةَ، وَكَانَ لَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِهِ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يُنْقِصَ مِنْ أَجْرِهِ شَيْئًا. وَهُوَ شَهْرٌ أَوَّلُهُ رَحْمَةٌ، وَأَوْسَطُهُ مَغْفِرَةٌ، وَآخِرُهُ عِتْقٌ مِنَ النَّارِ، وَمَنْ خَفَّفَ فِيهِ عَنْ مَمْلُوكِهِ أَعْتَقَهُ اللهُ مِنَ النَّارِ

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ addressed us on the last day of Sha'ban and said: "O people, a blessed month has overshadowed you, in which there is a night better than a thousand months. God has made its fasting obligatory and its night prayer voluntary. Whoever performs a virtuous act voluntarily in it is like one who performs an obligatory act in other months, and whoever performs an obligatory act in it is like one who performs seventy obligatory acts. It is the month of patience, and the reward of patience is Paradise. It is the month of consolation. It is a month in which the believer's provision is increased. Whoever provides iftar to a fasting person in it will have the reward of freeing a slave and forgiveness of his sins." It was said: "O Messenger of God, not all of us find what we can provide to break a fast." He ﷺ said: "God Most High gives this reward to whoever provides iftar to a fasting person with a sip of milk, a date, or a drink of water. And whoever satiates a fasting person will have forgiveness of his sins, and God, Mighty and Majestic, will give him a drink from my basin such that he will never thirst until he enters Paradise. He will have the like of the fasting person's reward without diminishing the fasting person's reward in any way. It is a month whose beginning is mercy, its middle forgiveness, and its end liberation from the Fire. And whoever lightens the burden of his servant in it, God will liberate him from the Fire."
