(3) 斋戒的美德确实极其伟大。圣训中有一项记载:真主选择斋戒归于自己,祂将给予奖赏,并且成倍地加赏,不可计量。正如祂在圣训圣语中所说:"唯独斋戒例外,它是为我而行的,我要亲自报酬它。"(布哈里,《讲解》,第1904条;《塔尔吉布圣训集》校勘本,1/407)。斋戒是无与伦比的(奈萨伊,4/165;《塔尔吉布圣训集》校勘本,1/413)。斋戒者的祈祷不会被拒绝(拜哈基所载,3/345;《正确的系列圣训》,第1797条)。斋戒者有两个欢喜的时刻:一是开斋的时候,一是他与主相见、因自己的斋戒而欢喜的时候(穆斯林所载,2/807)。斋戒在复活日将为其主人代求,并会说:"主啊,我在白天阻止他的饮食和身体欲望,求你允许我为他代求。"(艾哈迈德所载,2/174。海赛米在《集珍》中将其传述链评为"好"级,3/181。另见《塔尔吉布圣训集》校勘本,1/411)。斋戒者口中的气味,在真主看来比麝香的香味更好(穆斯林,2/807)。斋戒是一道保护和坚固的堡垒,使人免于火狱(艾哈迈德所载,2/402;《塔尔吉布圣训集》校勘本,1/411;《大全集》校勘本,第3880条)。为了真主而斋戒一天的人,真主将使他的脸与火狱相隔七十年的距离(穆斯林所载,2/808)。谁为求真主的喜悦而斋戒一天,即使那天是他生命中的最后一天,他也将进入乐园(艾哈迈德所载,5/391;《塔尔吉布圣训集》校勘本,1/412)。乐园中有一扇门,名叫"莱扬",斋戒者将从那里进入,除他们之外没有他人进入。他们进入之后,此门将被关闭,此后不再有人从那里进入。"(布哈里,《讲解》,第1797条)。

(3) The virtues of fasting are great indeed, and one of the things reported in the saheeh ahaadeeth is that Allaah has chosen fasting for Himself, and He will reward it and multiply the reward without measure, as He says [in the hadeeth qudsi]: “Except for fasting which is only for My sake, and I will reward him for it.” (al-Bukhaari, al-Fath, no. 1904; Saheeh al Targheeb, 1/407). Fasting has no equal (al-Nisaa'i, 4/165; Saheeh al-Targheeb, 1/413), and the du’aa’ of the fasting person will not be refused (reported by al-Bayhaqi, 3/345; al-Silsilat al Saheeh, 1797). The fasting person has two moments of joy: one when he breaks his fast and one when he meets his Lord and rejoices over his fasting (reported by Muslim, 2/807). Fasting will intercede for a person on the Day of Judgement, and will say, “O Lord, I prevented him from his food and physical desires during the day, so let me intercede for him.” (Reported by Ahmad, 2/174. Al-Haythami classed its isnaad as hasan in al-Majma’, 3/181. See also Saheeh al-Targheeb, 1/411). The smell that comes from the mouth of a fasting person is better with Allaah than the scent of musk. (Muslim, 2/807). Fasting is a protection and a strong fortress that keeps a person safe from the Fire. (Reported by Ahmad, 2/402; Saheeh al-Targheeb, 1/411; Saheeh al-Jaami’, 3880). Whoever fasts one day for the sake of Allaah, Allaah will remove his face seventy years’ distance from the Fire. (Reported by Muslim, 2/808). Whoever fasts one day seeking the pleasure of Allaah, if that is the last day of his life, he will enter Paradise. (Reported by Ahmad, 5/391; Saheeh al-Targheeb, 1/412). In Paradise there is a gate called al-Rayyaan, through those who fast will enter, and no one will enter it except them; when they have entered it will be locked, and no-one else will enter through it.” (al-Bukhaari, Fath, no. 1797).

斋月是伊斯兰教的五大支柱之一;《古兰经》在这个月降示,其中有一夜胜过一千个月。"斋月来临时,天堂的大门开启,火狱的大门关闭,众魔鬼被锁链锁住。"(布哈里圣训集所载,《法特赫注释》,第3277条)。封斋斋月等同于封斋十个月(参见《艾哈迈德圣训集》5/280;《萨希赫·泰尔吉布》1/421)。"凡怀着信仰并期望回报而封斋斋月者,他以往的罪过都将被赦免。"(布哈里圣训集所载,《法特赫注释》,第37条)。

Ramadaan is a pillar of Islam; the Qur’aan was revealed in this month, and in it there is a night that is better than a thousand months. “When Ramadaan begins, the gates of Paradise are opened and the gates of Hell are closed, and the devils are put in chains.” (Reported by al-Bukhaari, al-Fath, no. 3277). Fasting Ramadaan is equivalent to fasting ten months (See Musnad Ahmad, 5/280; Saheeh al-Targheeb, 1/421). “Whoever fasts Ramadaan out of faith and with the hope of reward, all his previous sins will be forgiven.” (Reported by al-Bukhaari, Fath, no. 37).

每当斋戒开启之时，安拉都会挑选一些人，将他们从火狱中释放。（艾哈迈德圣训集，5/256；《萨希赫·塔尔吉布》，1/419。）

At the breaking of every fast, Allaah will choose people to free from Hellfire. (Reported by Ahmad, 5/256; Saheeh al-Targheeb, 1/419).
