Excellence of fasting on Ramadan: * Forgiveness of sins THE Prophet (sallallahu alayhe wa sallam) urged that one fasts in Ramadan, explaining its excellence and high station, such that if the fasting person had sins as many as the foam upon the sea, then they would be forgiven for him through this pure and blessed act of worship. From Abu Hurairah, radiyallaahu anhu, from the Prophet who said: He who fasts Ramadan, due to eemaan and hoping for reward (from Allah) then his previous sins are forgiven. From Abu Hurairah, radiyallaahu anhu, that the Prophet climbed upon the mimbar (pulpit) and said: Aameen [O Allah grant it], aameen, aameen. So it was said, O Messenger of Allah, you climbed upon the mimbar and said, aameen, aameen, aameen? So he said: Indeed Jibraaeel, alayhis salaam, came to me and said, Whoever reaches the month of Ramadan and does not have [his sins] forgiven and so enters the Fire, then may Allah distance him, say aameen So I said: aameen ... * That supplication (duaa) is answered and freedom from the Fire is granted He (sallallahu alayhe wa sallam) said: There are in the month of Ramadan in every day and night those to whom Allah grants freedom from the Fire, and there is for every Muslim a supplication which he can make and will be granted . * He will be amongst the true followers of the prophets and the martyrs From Amr ibn Murrah al-Juhanee, radiyallaahu anhu, who said: A man came to the Prophet and said: O Messenger of Allah what if I testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that you are the Messenger of Allah, and I observe the five daily prayers, and I pay the Zakat, and I fast and stand in prayer in Ramadan, then amongst whom shall I be? He said: Amongst the true followers of the prophets and the martyrs.
