Hadith 10691

حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ , حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ , عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ , عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ , أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " الْحَسَنَةُ بِعَشْرِ أَمْثَالِهَا , وَالصَّوْمُ لِي , وَأَنَا أَجْزِي بِهِ , إنه يذر طَعامَهُ وشَرابَهُ مِن أَجْلِي ، فالصوم لي ، وأَنَا أَجْزي به ، وَلَخُلُوفُ فَمِ الصَّائِمِ أَطْيَبُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مِنْ رِيحِ الْمِسْكِ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The reward of a good deed is ten times. Allah Almighty has said: Fasting is for Me and I Myself will give its reward. The fasting person leaves his food and drink for My sake, therefore fasting is for Me and I Myself will give its reward. The breath of the fasting person’s mouth is more pleasant to Allah than the fragrance of musk.
