Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "
He who
spends a pair in the way of Allah will be called from the gates of Jannah: `O slave of Allah! This gate is better for
you' and one who is constant in Salat (prayer), will be called from the Gate of Salat; and whoever is eager in fighting
in the Cause of Allah, will be called from the Gate of Jihad; and who is regular in observing Saum will be called
from Ar-Raiyan Gate. The one who is generous in charity will be called from the Gate of Charity.
'' Abu Bakr (May
Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Messenger of Allah (PBUH)! May my mother and father be sacrificed for you!
Those who are called from these gates will stand in need of nothing. Will anybody be called from all of those
gates?'' He replied, "
Yes, and I hope that you will be one of them
.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Commentary:
"
Pair
'' means two; in other channels of transmission, it has been explained thus: "They asked him,
`Pair of what?' He (PBUH) said, `
A pair of horses, cows or camels
'.'' "
Pair
'' in this Hadith, however, can be all-
inclusive; i.e., fasting two days or performing two prayers, etc. This Hadith also mentions special distinction of Abu
Bakr As-Siddiq (May Allah be pleased with him) and the esteem in which he was held by the Prophet (PBUH). It
also transpires from this Hadith that one can praise such a person right on his face about whom one does not fear
that it will make him proud. This Hadith has also an inducement for giving in Sadaqah two instead of a single item.

Sahl bin Sa`d (May Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet (PBUH) said,
"In Jannah there is a gate which is
called Ar-Raiyan through which only those who observe Saum (fasting) will enter on the Day of Resurrection. None
else will enter through it. It will be called out, "Where are those who observe fasting?'' So they will stand up and
proceed towards it. When the last of them will have entered, the gate will be closed and then no one will enter
through that gate
.''
[Muslim].
Commentary:
This Hadith tells us about the special distinction of those who observe Saum. "
Only those who
observe Saum
'' signify the faithful who not only observe Saum during the month of Ramadan but also frequently
observe voluntary fasts over and above the obligatory ones, otherwise Saum of Ramadan are compulsory for every
Muslim. Similar is the case of the people of Salat, people of Sadaqah and people of Jihad, who have been mentioned
in the preceding Ahadith otherwise all Muslims are on par so far as the Salat, Sadaqah, etc., are concerned.

Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,
"
Every slave of Allah who observes Saum (fasting) for one day for the sake of Allah, Allah will draw his face
farther from Hell-fire to the extent of a distance to be covered in seventy years
.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Commentary:
"
Every slave of Allah
'' includes men, women, the free and the unfree, because they are slaves of
Allah. The Hadith highlights the excellence of fasting for the sake of Allah which will serve, on the Day of
Resurrection, as shield against Hell-fire.

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (PBUH) said, "
He who observes fasting
during the month of Ramadan with Faith while seeking its reward from Allah, will have his past sins forgiven
.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Commentary:
"
Sins
'' here means minor sins which relate to the Rights of Allah.
