أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِیسَی عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ سُفْیَانَ عَنْ دَاوُدَ الرَّقِّیِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع یَقُولُ لَإِفْطَارُکَ فِی مَنْزِلِ أَخِیکَ الْمُسْلِمِ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ صِیَامِکَ سَبْعِینَ ضِعْفاً أَوْ تِسْعِینَ ضِعْفاً.

1. It is narrated from Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.), “The reward of doing Iftar at the house of a brother in faith is seventy or ninety times the reward of a fast.”

2. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) says, “One who goes to a brother in faith fasting and does Iftar at his house and does not tell him about his fast Allah grants him the reward of fasting for a year.”
