2433. ‘Umar bin Thābit Al-Anṣārī reported from Abū Ayyūb, a Companion of the Prophet ﷺ, from the Prophet ﷺ, that he said: "Whoever fasted Ramaḍān, then followed with six days in Shawwāl, it will be as if he had fasted all the time." (Saḥīḥ)

Arabic text

2433 - حَدَّثَنَا النُّفَيْلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ، وَسَعْدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ، صَاحِبِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ صَامَ رَمَضَانَ، ثُمَّ أَتْبَعَهُ بِسِتٍّ مِنْ شَوَّالٍ، فَكَأَنَّمَا صَامَ الدَّهْرَ»
