Chapter on Voluntary Fasting and Its Rewards on Different Days
مَا قَالَهُ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «لَمَّا قُتِلَ اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَمَرَ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مَلَكاً فَنَادَى أَيَّتُهَا اَلْأُمَّةُ اَلظَّالِمَةُ اَلْقَاتِلَةُ عِتْرَةَ نَبِيِّهَا لاَ وَفَّقَكُمُ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى لِصَوْمٍ وَ لاَ فِطْرٍ ».
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "When al-Husayn ibn Ali عليه السلام was martyred, Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Almighty, commanded an angel to proclaim: 'O oppressive nation, O killers of the progeny of your Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم, may Allah سبحانه وتعالى not grant you success in fasting or breaking your fast.'"
