Excellence of Ramadan Month and reward of fasting

Imam Muhammad Baqir (a.s) says, "O Jabir! One who happens to have the month of Ramadan and he fasts in that month and worships Allah for a part of night, guards his tongue and private parts, saves his eyes from what is prohibited and does not hurt anyone, his sins would be wiped off like the day when he was born from the womb of his mother." Jabir said, "May I be sacrificed, what an excellent tradition it is!" Imam replied, "(also) see its conditions, which are difficult."

AL·HADITH AL·QUDSI (A WORD OF ALLAH) Chapter 12

Almighty Allah says: O, Sons of Adam! Call to mind My favors which I bestow upon you. Without a guide you cannot find the way. In the same way you cannot find the way to Jannat (heaven), without knowledge. You cannot gather wealth without struggle. In the same way, you cannot enter heaven except with patience in My obedience. And you can get closer to Me by practicing supererogatory acts. And seek My pleasure by pleasing the poor. Indeed My pleasure never separates from you even for a blink of an eye. O, Musa! Listen to Me! What I say and what I say is the truth. Indeed, one who has pride and does not associate himself with the poor, I will raise him on the day of judgement, the size of an atom under people’s feet. The one who disgraces a Muslim, I will disgrace him 70 times. The one who humbles himself before an A’lim (knowledgeable person) and his parents, I will raise his dignity in this world and in the hereafter. One who insults a Muslim and Mo’min (believers) because of his poverty, indeed, he is calling me to fight with him. The one who loves a Mo’min (believer) because of Me, Angels will greet him in both the worlds, in this world, secretly, and in the Hereafter, openly.
