Arabic text

حدثنا محمد بن الحسن، قال: حدثنا الحسن بن الحسين بن عبد العزيز المهتدي، عن سيف بن المبارك، عن أبي الحسن (عليه السلام)، قال: إن نوحاً (عليه السلام) ركب السفينة أول يوم من رجب فأمر من معه أن يصوموا ذلك اليوم، وقال: من صام ذلك تباعدت عنه النار مسيرة سنة، ومن صام سبعة أيام أغلقت عنه أبواب النيران السبعة، ومن صام ثمانية أيام فتحت له الجنان الثمانية، ومن صام خمسة عشر يوماً أعطى مسألته، ومن زاد زاده الله.

Translation

Muḥammad b. al-Ḥasan narrated to us, saying that al-Ḥasan b. al-Ḥusayn b. ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz al-Muhtadī [1] narrated to him among others, from Sayf b. al-Mubārak, from Abī’l-Ḥasan (as), who said: “Indeed, Nūḥ (as) boarded the Ark on the first day of Rajab and thus commanded those who were with him that they fast on that day, then he said: “Whoever fasts on that day, he will be drawn distant from Hellfire by the measure of a year’s journey. Whoever fasts for seven days, the seven doors of the fires of Hell will be shut to him, and whoever fasts for eight days, the eight gates of Heaven will be opened for him. Whoever fasts fifteen days, he will be given whatever he asks for, and whoever fasts more than that, then Allāh will increase his reward accordingly.”
