English translation

2194. Urwah bin Az-Zubair narrated that 'Aishah told him that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ used to encourage the people to pray Qiyâm in Ramaḍān, without insisting on that. He said: "Whoever spends the nights of Ramaḍān in prayer out of faith and in the hope of reward, he will be forgiven his previous sins." (Sahīh)

Arabic text

2192 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَبَلَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعَافَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى، عَنْ إِسْحَقَ بْنِ رَاشِدٍ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ، زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُرَغِّبُ النَّاسَ فِي قِيَامِ رَمَضَانَ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَأْمُرَهُمْ بِعَزِيمَةِ أَمْرٍ فِيهِ، فَيَقُولُ: «مَنْ قَامَ رَمَضَانَ إِيمَانًا وَاحْتِسَابًا غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ»

Commentary

1. "Faith and hope of reward" means the purpose or the foundation of fasting ought to be faith and not that most people fast. So seeing them fasting, one fasts along with them, or as a matter of habit or custom, and not as an act of worship (Ibada), or for the achievement of health. 2. "All his previous sins:" provided they are forgivable. That means they should not have been affiliated to the rights of worshippers of Allāh nor to polytheism (Shirk), etc.
