Doubling of Reward in Ramadan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Did the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) confirm the doubling of reward in Ramadan, in charity, in prayer, and in glorification and the declaration of Allah’s oneness?
The Shaykh:
It is multiplied. The general texts clearly indicate that good deeds are multiplied in this month, based on the aggregate of the texts.
The questioner:
The general texts, what do you think?
The Shaykh:
The aggregate of the texts, and the example is the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): Allah, Mighty and Majestic, says every year in the ledger of good deeds: twenty for one, except fasting, for it is Mine and I shall reward for it. He commanded to fear Allah. May Allah keep you safe, O Shaykh. These are your affairs. Yes. Generally, this statement is whatever helps him. If he needs it, if he needs it to be rain or sun, just as the student of 'Umar’s time was conditioned that if they passed by, they should make way for him, but if there was no need, they should leave him alone, or not. Yes. May Allah reward you with good.
