وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى، حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَبَّانَ، ثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ عِيسَى، عَنْ عَمِّهِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبَانَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ؓ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ:
هَذَا شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ قَدْ جَاءَ، تُفَتَّحُ فِيهِ أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ، وَتُغَلَّقُ فِيهِ أَبْوَابُ النَّارِ، وَتُغَلُّ فِيهِ الشَّيَاطِينُ، مَنْ أَدْرَكَ رَمَضَانَ وَلَمْ يُغْفَرْ لَهُ فِيهِ فَمَتَى يُغْفَرُ لَهُ ؟

✧ This month of Ramadan has come; the gates of heaven are opened in it, the gates of Hell are closed, and the devils are chained. Whoever reaches Ramadan and is not forgiven in it, then when will he be forgiven?
