Arabic text

وبهذا الإسناد، قال الرضا (عليه السلام): الحسنات في شهر رمضان مقبولة والسيئات فيه مغفورة، من قرأ في شهر رمضان آية من كتاب الله عز وجل كان كمن ختم قرآن في غيره من الشهور، ومن ضحك فيه في وجه أخيه المؤمن لم يلقه يوم القيامة إلا ضحك في وجهه وبشره بالجنة ومن أعان فيه مؤمناً أعانه الله تعالى على الجواز على الصراط يوم تزل فيه الأقدام، ومن كف فيه غضبه كف الله عنه غضبه يوم القيامة، ومن نصر فيه مظلوماً نصره الله على كل من عاداه في الدنيا ونصره يوم القيامة عند الحساب والميزان. شهر رمضان شهر البركة وشهر الرحمة وشهر المغفرة وشهر التوبة والإنابة، من لم يغفر له في شهر رمضان ففي أي شهر يغفر له، فاسألوا الله أن يتقبل منكم فيه الصيام ولا يجعله آخر العهد منكم وأن يوفقكم فيه لطاعته ويعصمكم من معصيته إنه خير مسؤول.

Translation

And with the same chain of transmission, he has reported that Imam al-Riḍā (as) said: “Good deeds in the month of Ramaḍān are accepted and misdeeds forgiven for he who reads a single verse of the Book of Allāh (azwj) during it, as though he had completed the entirety of the Qurʾān in any other month. Whoever causes his brother in belief to have laughter appear on his face will be let go on the Day of Judgement with laughter appearing on his own face, replete with glad tidings of Paradise. Whoever assists a fellow believer during this month, Allāh (taa) assists him by providing him with safe passage on the Bridge on the Day when other (people’s) feet will not find sure footing. Whoever restrains his own anger, Allāh will restrain His anger from him on the Day of Judgement, and whoever assists an oppressee during this month, Allāh will assist him against all of his enemies both in the worldly life and on the Day of Judgement, at the occasions of the Reckoning and the Scale. The month of Ramaḍān is one of blessings, mercy, forgiveness, repentance, and turning to Allāh. Whoever is not forgiven in the month of Ramaḍān, in which other month will he be forgiven? So ask Allāh to accept from you your fasts in this month, and that He not make it the last fulfilment of your covenant, and that He grant you the strength to obey Him and protect you from disobeying Him, for He is the worthiest One to be asked (for anything).”
