The Sufficient (Vol 4) · Hadith 288 (#Ḥadīth #6)

5ـ يُونُسُ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ إِذَا حَضَرَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ فَقُلِ اللهمَّ قَدْ حَضَرَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ وَقَدِ افْتَرَضْتَ عَلَيْنَا صِيَامَهُ وَأَنْزَلْتَ فِيهِ الْقُرْآنَ هُدًى لِلنَّاسِ وَبَيِّنَاتٍ مِنَ الْهُدَى وَالْفُرْقَانِ اللهمَّ أَعِنَّا عَلَى صِيَامِهِ اللهمَّ تَقَبَّلْهُ مِنَّا وَسَلِّمْنَا فِيهِ وَتَسَلَّمْهُ مِنَّا فِي يُسْرٍ مِنْكَ وَعَافِيَةٍ إِنَّكَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ.

6. Yunus has narrated from Ali ibn abu Hamzah, from abu Basir who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah , has said that when the month of Ramadan begins, say this, ‘O Allah, the month of Ramadan has begun and You have made it obligatory upon us to fast during this month. You have revealed Your book in it as guidance for people, as the most clear guidance and means of discernment (between right and wrong). O Allah, help us to fast during this month. O Allah, accept it from us, grant us protection therein, receive it back from us with ease and good health. You have power over all things, O most Merciful, most Beneficent.’”
