808. Abū Hurairah narrated: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would encourage the night prayer in Ramaḍān without firmly ordering it, and he would say: 'Whoever stands (in the night prayer) for Ramaḍān with faith and seeking the reward (from Allāh), then he will be forgiven what has preceded of his sins.' So the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ died and the matter was like that. Then the matter was the same during the Khilāfah of Abū Bakr and it continued during a portion of the Khilāfah of 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb." (Ṣaḥīḥ)
