Roza Fasting

[Pari]

Narrated Talha bin 'Ubaid-Ullah:

A bedouin with unkempt hair came to Allah's Apostle and said, "O Allah's Apostle! Inform me what Allah has made compulsory for me as regards the prayers." He replied: "You have to offer perfectly the five compulsory prayers in a day and night (24 hours), unless you want to pray Nawafil." The bedouin further asked, "Inform me what Allah has made compulsory for me as regards fasting." He replied, "You have to fast during the whole month of Ramadan, unless you want to fast more as Nawafil." The bedouin further asked, "Tell me how much Zakat Allah has enjoined on me." Thus, Allah's Apostle informed him about all the rules (i.e. fundamentals) of Islam. The bedouin then said, "By Him Who has honored you, I will neither perform any Nawafil nor will I decrease what Allah has enjoined on me. Allah's Apostle said, "If he is saying the truth, he will succeed (or he will be granted Paradise)."

The month of Ramadan is one of the greatest bounties that Allah taala has bestowed upon
the Muslim ummah. We received the gift of the Holy Prophet (şallallahu álayhi wa ālihi wa
sallam) this month, the ashraf al-khalāiq, the khātim al-mursalīn. We were awarded the Holy
Quran in this month, the hidayat, the furqan, the rahmat, the shifa. This month witnessed
yaum al-badr, the first encounter of Islam and kufr, evil perishing and good prevailing.
That yam al-fath also took place this month when the keys of the umm al-qura (the heart of
the living world, Makkah muazzamah) were handed over without shedding a drop of blood.
This month holds that invaluable night, laylat al-qadr, during which treasures of khair-obarkat
worth more than thousands of months are given away.
