حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ عَنْ أَ
بِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ لَمَّا حَضَرَ رَمَضَانُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ جَاءَكُمْ رَمَضَانُ شَهْرٌ مُبَارَكٌ افْتَرَضَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكُمْ صِيَامَهُ تُفْتَحُ فِيهِ أَبْوَابُ الْجَنَّةِ وَتُغْلَقُ فِيهِ أَبْوَابُ الْجَحِيمِ وَتُغَلُّ فِيهِ الشَّيَاطِينُ فِيهِ لَيْلَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ مَنْ حُرِمَ خَيْرَهَا فَقَدْ حُرِمَ
Isnad Chain
English Translation
Isma'il narrated to us from Ayyub, from Abu Qilabah, from Abu Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه) who said: When Ramadan approached, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Ramadan has come to you, a blessed month. Allah has made its fasting obligatory upon you. In it, the gates of Paradise are opened, the gates of Hellfire are closed, and the devils are chained. In it there is a night that is better than a thousand months. Whoever is deprived of its goodness has truly been deprived."
