Question:
I say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, how do you reconcile His saying, Glorified and Exalted is He, in the Qudsi hadithSahih al-Bukhari 5927 with our saying that fasting on this day is equivalent to ten days?
Answer:
Yes, it is ten days, and in the correct view, no one knows its reward except Allah. The ten days is an additional good, and as for the fact that its reward is not specified, this is an additional good from Allah, Exalted and Majestic is He. There is no contradiction between the two hadiths.
