حدثنا أبي رضي الله عنه، عن سعد بن عبد الله، عن يعقوب بن يزيد، عن حماد بن عيسى، عن حريز بن عبد الله، عن زرارة بن أعين، عن أبي جعفر محمد (عليه السلام)، قال: بني الإسلام على خمسة أشياء: على الصلاة والزكاة والصوم والحج والولاية، وقال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله): الصوم جنة من النار.
My father (ra) narrated to us, from Saʿd b. ʿAbd Allāh, from Yaʿqūb b. Yazīd, from Ḥammād b. ʿĪsā, from Ḥarīz b. ʿAbd Allāh, from Zurāra b. Aʿyan, from Abī Jaʿfar Muḥammad (al-Bāqir, (as)), who said: “Islam is built on five things—upon prayer, the obligatory alms-tax, fasting, the pilgrimage (to the Kaaba in Mecca), and Divine authority, and the Messenger of Allāh (sawa) has said: “Fasting is a shield against the Fire.”
