“This is Ramadan, the month of repentance, abstinence (from sins), striving and hastening (to do good). In it was revealed His Noble Remembrance (the Quran) and He specified it with the Night of Decree.
So glad tidings to the one who performs his fast and standing in the night (in prayer) well, and protects his limbs from the sources of sins and withholds from useless speech. He doesn’t utter except the Dhikr of Allaah and that is the essence of fasting.”
