Ahadith about Ramadhan...

The Messenger of Allah (SAAWS) reported in a Hadith al-Qudsi that Allah (SWT) said:
"All acts done by the sons of Adam are meant for him, except fasting. It is exclusively meant for Me, and I (alone) will reward him for it" (Bukhari and Muslim)

"He who does not desist from obscene language and acting obscenely (during the period of fasting), Allah has no need that he did not eat or drink." (Bukhari, Muslim)

In another hadith by Abu Hurairah (RAA), the Prophet (SAAWS) said: "Fasting is not only to restrain from food and drink, fasting is to refrain from obscene (acts). If someone verbally abuses you or acts ignorantly towards you, say (to them) 'I am fasting; I am fasting.”  (Ibn Khuzaimah)

It has been reported by the way of Abu Hurairah (RAA) that the Prophet (SAAWS) reported that Allah (SWT) said in a Hadith Al-Qudsi: "All services of the son of Adam are for him except fasting. It is for Me, and I will reward him for it. Fasting is a shield. On the day you fast, do not use obscenity, nor yell at others, nor act ignorantly towards them. However, if anyone abuses you verbally or attempts to draw you to fight with him, say 'I am fasting' two times. The Prophet (SAAWS) then states: I swore by the One (Allah) in Whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad, the breath of the faster is sweeter to Allah on the Day of Judgment than the scent of musk. The faster experiences enjoyment twice: he is pleased when he breaks his fast, and he is pleased when he meets his Maker."  (Muslim)

Abu Hurairah (raa) relates the Messenger of Allah (SAAWS) said when one Ramadan came: "A blessed month has arrived. Observing it in fasting is mandated on you (the believers). During this month, the gates of Paradise will be opened and the gates of Hellfire will be closed. The evil ones (Shayaatin) will be handcuffed. In it there is one night, during which worship is better than worship in a thousand months. Whoever is denied its blessings has been denied the biggest blessing." (Ahmed, Nasaae, and Bayhaqi)

Amir bin Al-As reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAAWS) said "Indeed as to the one who fasts, during the time he breaks his fast, this supplication will not be turned away by Allah."

As reported by Al-Tirmidhi, the Messenger of Allah (SAAWS) has been reported as saying: "There are three categories of people whose supplications will not be rejected: the person who observes the fast until he breaks it, a just ruler, and a person who has been oppressed."

Anas (RAA) related that the Messenger of Allah said: "Take your early morning meal for in that is a blessing." (Bukhari, Muslim)

In another report by Miqdam bin Ma'a Diyikarib (raa) the Messenger of Allah (SAAWS) said: "Take this early morning meal for it is a blessed meal." (Bukhari, Muslim)

Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri (raa) the Messenger of Allah (SAAWS) said, "Sahuur is a blessed meal, do not neglect it even if it is a mouthful of drink. For Allah and the Angels bless those who observe it." (Ahmed)


And Allah knows best.
