Arabic text

حدثنا أبي رحمه الله، قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، قال: حدثنا أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى، عن الحسن بن علي بن فضّال، عن سيف بن عميرة، عن عبيد الله بن عبد الله، عمن سمع أبا جعفر الباقر (عليه السلام) يقول: قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله) لما حضر شهر رمضان وذلك لثلاث بقين من شعبان قال لبلال: ناد في الناس فجمع الناس، ثم صعد المنبر فحمد الله وأثنى عليه، ثم قال: أيها الناس إن هذا الشهر قد حضركم وهو سيد الشهور، فيه ليلة خير من الف شهر، تغلق فيه أبواب النيران، وتفتح فيه أبواب الجنان، فمن أدركه فلم يغفر له فأبعده الله، ومن أدرك والديه فلم يغفر له فأبعده الله، ومن ذكرت عنده فصلى علي فلم يغفر له فأبعده الله.

Translation

My 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-Ḥasan b. ʿAlī b. Faḍḍāl, from Sayf b. ʿUmayra, from ʿUbayd Allāh b. ʿAbd Allāh, from the one who heard from Abā Jaʿfar al-Bāqir (as), who said: “The Messenger of Allāh (sawa) said to Bilāl as the month of Ramaḍān approached and three nights yet remained of Shaʿbān: “Call out to the people,” so Bilāl gathered the people. The Holy Prophet (sawa) ascended the pulpit, praised Allāh and extolled Him, then said: “O’ people! This month has approached you, and it is the master of the months. In it is a night better than a thousand months, in which the gates of Perdition are closed and the gates of Paradise are opened. Whoever reaches it and is not forgiven—may Allāh distance him! Whoever knows his parents (and does his duty by them) but is not forgiven—may Allāh distance him! And whoever hears mention of me and does not send blessings upon me yet is not forgiven—may Allāh distance him!”
