Muḥammad b. al-Ḥasan b. Aḥmad b. al-Walīd رضي الله عنه narrated to us, saying that Muḥammad b. al-Ḥasan al-Ṣaffār narrated to him among others, from Aḥmad b. Muḥammad b. ʿĪsā, from Muḥammad b. Abī ʿUmayr, from Ḥammād b. ʿUthmān, from al-Ḥalabī, from Abī ʿAbd Allāh عليه السلام, who said: “Amīr al-Muʾminīn عليه السلام has stated: “Fasting in the month of patience—i.e., Ramaḍān—and fasting three days in every month drives away the anxieties in the chest.” It has also been narrated from him that he said: “Fasting three days in every month counts as fasting for a whole year, and Allāh عز وجل has indeed said: ﴾Whoever comes with a good deed will have ten times the like thereof﴿ [6:160].”
