Shaykh Muḥammad b. ʿAlī al-Ṣaduq · The Merits of Shaʿbān
حدثنا أبي رحمه الله، قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، قال: حدثنا أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى، عن الحسين بن سعيد، عن عبد الرحمن بن أبي نجران، عن يونس بن يعقوب، قال: سألت أبا عبد الله (عليه السلام) عن صوم شعبان كان أحد من آبائك يصومه؟ فقال: كان خير آبائي رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله) كان أكثر صيامه في شعبان.
My (i.e., the author’s) father (rh) narrated to us, saying that Saʿd b. ʿAbd Allāh narrated to him, among others, saying that Aḥmad b. Muḥammad b. ʿĪsā narrated to him, among others, from al-Ḥusayn b. Saʿīd, from ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. Abī Najrān, from Yūnus b. Yaʿqūb, who narrated: “I asked Abā ʿAbd Allāh—Jaʿfar b. Muḥammad al-Ṣādiq (as)—about fasting in Shaʿbān: “Had any of your forefathers fasted as such?,” so he replied: “The best of my forefathers, the Messenger of Allāh (sawa), had often fasted in Shaʿbān.”
