"If the servants knew what is in Ramadan, my Ummah would wish that the whole year were Ramadan. Indeed, Paradise is adorned for Ramadan from the beginning of the year to its end. When the first day of Ramadan comes, a wind blows from beneath the Throne and makes the leaves of Paradise rustle, and the wide-eyed houris look at that and say: 'O Lord, make for us among Your servants in this month spouses in whom our eyes may be delighted, and whose eyes may be delighted by us.' No servant fasts a day of Ramadan except that he is married to a wife from among the wide-eyed houris, in a tent of hollow white pearl, of which Allah described: 'Houris restrained in pavilions' (Quran 55:72). For each woman among them there are seventy garments, none of which is of the color of another, and they are given seventy kinds of perfume, none of which has the scent of another. For each woman among them there are seventy thousand servant girls for her needs and seventy thousand servant boys, and with each servant girl is a golden dish containing a kind of food, and at the last morsel of it she finds a pleasure not found at the first. For each woman among them there are seventy beds of red ruby, and upon each bed are seventy mattresses lined with brocade (above each mattress are seventy) () couches. Her husband is given the like of that on a bed of red ruby inlaid with pearls, upon which are two bracelets of gold. This is for every day he fasted of Ramadan, apart from the good deeds he performed.".....
