Hadith 435
435 صحيح حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: مَنْ قَامَ رَمَضَانَ إِيمَانًا واحْتِسَابًا غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Whoever stands (in prayer, i.e., Tarawih) during the nights of Ramadan with faith and seeking reward, his previous sins will be forgiven.
Hadith 436
436 صحيح حديث عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَرَجَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ مِنْ جَوْفِ اللَّيْلِ فَصَلَّى فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَصَلَّى رِجَالٌ بِصَلاَتِهِ، فَأَصْبَحَ النَّاسُ فَتَحَدَّثُوا، فَاجْتَمَعَ أَكْثَرُ مِنْهُمْ فَصَلَّوْا مَعَهُ، فَأَصْبَحَ النَّاسُ فَتَحَدَّثُوا، فَكَثُرَ أَهْلُ الْمَسْجِدِ مِنَ اللَّيْلَةِ الثَّالِثَةِ، فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَصَلَّوا بِصَلاَتِهِ، فَلَمَّا كَانَتِ اللَّيْلَةُ الرَّابِعَةُ عَجَزَ الْمَسْجِدُ عَنْ أَهْلِهِ حَتَّى خَرَجَ لِصَلاَةِ الصُّبْحِ؛ فَلَمَّا قَضَى الْفَجْرَ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى النَّاسِ فَتَشَهَّدَ ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَمَّا بَعْدُ؛ فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَخْفَ عَلَيَّ مَكَانُكُمْ، لكِنِّي خَشِيتُ أَنْ تُفْرَضَ عَلَيْكُمْ فَتَعْجِزُوا عَنْهَا
Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) got up at night and prayed in the mosque, and some companions also stood to pray behind him. In the morning, those companions mentioned this to other people, so (the next day) even more people gathered and prayed behind him. The following morning, the news spread even more, and then, on the third night, a large number of people gathered, and when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up, those companions started praying behind him. On the fourth night, the mosque was so full of worshippers that there was no room left. But that night, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not lead this prayer, and after the Fajr prayer, he addressed the people. First, he recited the testimony of faith, then said: "As for what follows, I am not afraid of your presence here, but I feared that this prayer might be made obligatory upon you, and then you would not be able to perform it."
