عَنْ أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ
قُلتُ: يَا رَسُولَ الله! لَمْ أَرَاكَ تَصُومُ مِنْ شَهْرٍ مِنَ الشُّهُورِ مَا تَصُومُ مِنْ شَعْبَانَ؟ قَالَ: «ذَلِكَ شَهْرٌ يَغْفُلُ النَّاسُ عَنْهُ بَيْنَ رَجبٍ وَرَمَضَانَ، وَهُوَ شَهْرٌ تُرْفَعُ فِيهِ الأعْمَالُ إِلَى رَبَ الْعَالمِينَ، فَأُحِبُّ أنْ يُرْفَعَ عَمَلِى وَأَنَا صَائِمٌ۔»
Translation
Chain of narrators
- Usāmah b. Zayd
I said: Messenger of Allah, I do not see you fasting ˹more˺ in any month like you fast in Shaʿbān. He said, "People are heedless in that month between Rajab and Ramaḍān and it is the month where deeds are raised up to the Lord of the worlds. Therefore I prefer that my deeds are raised up while I'm fasting."
Notes
Ibn Abī Shaybah and Ibn Zanjawayh; Nasaʿī, Abū Yaʿlá and Ibn ʿĀṣim; Bāwardī; Maqdisī's Mukhtār with wording from Ibn Abī Shaybah: "Therefore it's important my deeds are not raised up except when I am fasting."
