حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، وَسُهَيْلُ بْنُ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، أَنَّهُمَا سَمِعَا النُّعْمَانَ بْنَ أَبِي عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ رضى الله عنه

قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «مَنْ صَامَ يَوْمًا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ بَعَّدَ اللَّهُ وَجْهَهُ عَنِ النَّارِ سَبْعِينَ خَرِيفًا»

I heard the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) saying, “Indeed, anyone who fasts for one day for Allah’s Pleasure, Allah will keep his face away from the (Hell) fire for (a distance covered by a journey of) seventy years.”

আবূ সা‘ঈদ খুদরী (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আমি নবী (সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম)-কে বলতে শুনেছি, যে ব্যক্তি আল্লাহর রাস্তায় এক দিনও সিয়াম পালন করে, আল্লাহ্ তার মুখমন্ডলকে দোযখের আগুন হতে সত্তর বছরের রাস্তা দূরে সরিয়ে নেন। (মুসলিম ১৩/৩১ হাঃ ১১৫৩, আহমাদ ১১৭৯০)

ہم سے اسحاق بن نضر نے بیان کیا ‘ کہا ہم سے عبدالرزاق نے بیان کیا ‘ کہا ہم کو ابن جریج نے خبر دی ‘ کہا کہ مجھے یحییٰ بن سعید اور سہیل بن ابی صالح نے خبر دی ‘ ان دونوں حضرات نے نعمان بن ابی عیاش سے سنا ‘ انہوں نے ابو سعید خدری رضی اللہ عنہ سے ‘ آپ نے بیان کیا کہ میں نے نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے سنا ‘ آپ فرماتے تھے کہ جس نے اللہ تعالیٰ کے راستے میں ( جہاد کرتے ہوئے ) ایک دن بھی روزہ رکھا اللہ تعالیٰ اسے جہنم سے ستر سال کی مسافت کی دوری تک دور کر دے گا۔

Telah bercerita kepada kami [Ishaq bin Nashr] telah bercerita kepada kami ['Abdur Rozzaq] telah mengabarkan kepada kami [Ibnu Juraij] berkata telah bercerita kepadaku [Yahya Sa'id] dan [Suhail bin Abi Shalih] bahwa keduanya mendengar [an Nu'man bin Abi 'Ayyasy] dari [Abu Sa'id Al Khudriy radliallahu 'anhu] berkata; Aku mendengar Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda; "Barang siapa yang shoum (berpuasa) satu hari di jalan Allah, maka Allah akan menjauhkan wajahnya dari neraka sejauh tujuh puluh musim

Ebu Said el-Hudri dedi: "Resulullah Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem'in şöyle buyurduğunu işittim: "Kim Allah yolunda bir gün oruç tutarsa Allah onun yüzünü cehennem ateşinden yetmiş yıl uzaklaştırır

Sahih al-Bukhari 2840, Book 56, Fighting for the Cause of Allah (Jihaad), Hadith 56. 1 min read

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) clarified that whoever fasts a day in Jihad, and it is said in Jihad or otherwise, sincerely for the sake of Allah, seeking reward and recompense from Allah, then by His grace, Allah will distance him from the Fire seventy years.

What it teaches

  • An-Nawawi said: The merit of fasting in the way of Allah, and it is meant to apply to whoever is not harmed by it, does not neglect any rights because of it, and does not hamper his ability to fight or fulfill any of the missions of his fight.
  • Encouraging and motivating the voluntary fast.
  • It is obligatory to offer the fast sincerely for Allah's sake and seek His pleasure, not for showing off, gaining a good reputation, or any other purpose.
  • As-Sindi said: His statement (in the way of Allah) may mean simply having a sincere intention or fasting while being a warrior in battle. The second meaning is the more apparent one.
  • Ibn Hajar said: His statement (seventy falls) refers to fall as a specific time of the year, but here it means a year. Fall is mentioned specifically instead of the other seasons—summer, winter, and spring—because fall is the most fruitful season, as it is the time when fruits are harvested.
