Muḥammad b. Bakrān al-Naqqāsh narrated to us, saying that Aḥmad b. Muḥammad al-Hamadānī, the client of Banī Hāshim, narrated to him among others, saying that ʿAlī b. al-Ḥasan b. ʿAlī b. Faḍḍāl informed him among others, from his father, from Abī’l-Ḥasan, ʿAlī b. Mūsā al-Riḍā عليه السلام, that he said: “Whoever repents of his sins to Allāh تبارك وتعالى shall have his repentance accepted in the month of Ramaḍān—for it is the month of repentance and absolution, and the month of forgiveness and mercy—and there is not a night from among its nights except that Allāh تبارك وتعالى frees from the Fire all those due for emancipation who would have been damned to Hell for their sins.”
