حدثنا أحمد بن زياد بن جعفر الهمداني رضي الله عنه، قال: حدثنا علي بن إبراهيم بن هاشم، عن أبيه، عن ابن أبي عمير، عن المفضّل بن عمر، عن جابر بن يزيد الجعفي، عن أبي نصرة [أبي حمزة]، عن جابر بن عبد الله الأنصاري، قال: قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله): أعطيت أمتي خمس خصال في شهر رمضان لم يعطهن أمة نبي قبلي. أما واحدة فإنه إذا كان أول ليلة من شهر رمضان نظر الله عز وجل إليهم ومن نظر الله إليه لم يعذبه. والثانية: خلوف أفواههم حين يمسون أطيب عند الله من ريح المسك. والثالثة: يستغفر لهم الملائكة في كل يوم وليلة. والرابعة: يقول الله عز وجل لجنته: تزيني واستعدي لعبادي يوشك أن يستريحوا من نصب الدنيا وأذاها ويصيروا إلى دار كرامتي. والخامسة: إذا كان آخر ليلة من شهر رمضان غفر الله عز وجل لهم جميعاً، فقال رجل: يا رسول الله أهي ليلة القدر؟ قال: لا أما ترون العمال إذا عملوا كيف يؤتون أجورهم؟
Aḥmad b. Ziyād b. Jaʿfar al-Hamadānī (ra) narrated to us, saying that ʿAlī b. Ibrāhīm b. Hāshim narrated to him among others, from his father, from Ibn Abī ʿUmayr, from al-Mufaḍḍal b. ʿUmar, from Jābir b. Yazīd al-Ju‘fī, from Abī Nuṣra [or Abī Ḥamza], from Jābir b. ʿAbd Allāh al-Anṣārī, who said: “The Messenger of Allāh (sawa) has said: “My community has been given five particulars in the month of Ramaḍān that no community of any prophet before me has been given. The first: Allāh (azwj) looks to them on the first night of the month of Ramaḍān, and whoever Allāh looks to, He does not punish him. The second: The odour of their mouths when they break their fast is sweeter to Allāh than the scent of musk. The third: The angels seek forgiveness for them every day and night. The fourth: Allāh (azwj) will say to His Paradise: “Adorn yourself and prepare for My servants, for they are soon to rest from the toil and harm of the world and enter the abode of My generosity.” The fifth: On the last night of the month of Ramaḍān, Allāh will forgive them all together.” A man said: “O’ Messenger of Allāh, is that the Night of Power?” He replied: “Nay! Do you not see that when the labourers finish their work, they are given their wages?”
