English translation

1708. It was narrated from Abu Dharr that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "Whoever fasts three days in every month, that is fasting for a lifetime." Then, in testimony of that, Allâh revealed: "Whoever brings a good deed shall have ten times the like thereof to his credit."[1] So one day is equivalent to ten (in reward). (Da'if)

Arabic text

1708 - حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ أَبِي سَهْلٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ الْأَحْوَلِ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " مَنْ صَامَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ، فَذَلِكَ صَوْمُ الدَّهْرِ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ تَصْدِيقَ ذَلِكَ فِي كِتَابِهِ: {مَنْ جَاءَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ فَلَهُ عَشْرُ أَمْثَالِهَا} [الأنعام: 160] فَالْيَوْمُ بِعَشْرَةِ أَيَّامٍ "
