بَابُ مَا جَاءَ خَاصًّا يَنْقُصُ الشَّهْرُ مَعَ قَوْلِهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ شَهْرَانِ لَا يَنْقُصَانِChapter: What Has Been Reported Specifically About the Month Being Shorter, Along with the Saying of the Prophet: "Two Months Do Not Decrease"
Hadith 3702
اُردوEn
عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرَةٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((شَهْرَانِ لَا يَنْقُصَانِ، فِي كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا عِيدٌ، رَمَضَانُ وَذُو الْحِجَّةِ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Two months are never incomplete, each of them contains an Eid; they are Ramadan and Dhul-Hijjah.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The month of Eid al-Fitr is Shawwal, not Ramadan. However, since this Eid is related to Ramadan and occurs immediately after it, Ramadan has been referred to as the month of Eid. Ramadan and Dhu al-Hijjah are not deficient; various meanings of this phrase have been mentioned, and the following two opinions are considered more reliable:
(1) There is no decrease in their stated virtue and reward, and it makes no difference whether they are of twenty-nine (29) days or thirty (30).
(2) The purpose of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is to express the virtue of the deeds performed in the first ten days of Dhu al-Hijjah, meaning that their reward is also not less than that of the month of Ramadan.
