حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ صَامَ رَمَضَانَ ثُمَّ أَتْبَعَهُ سِتًّا مِنْ شَوَّالٍ فَذَلِكَ صِيَامُ الدَّهْرِ.

Abu Mu'awiyah narrated to us, Sa'd ibn Sa'id narrated to us, from Umar ibn Thabit, from Abu Ayyub al-Ansari, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Whoever fasts Ramadan and then follows it with six days of Shawwal, that is equivalent to fasting the whole year.
