1ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ جَمِيعاً عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ صَاحِبِ السَّابِرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الصَّبَّاحِ الْكِنَانِيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) يَقُولُ صَوْمُ شَعْبَانَ وَشَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ تَوْبَةٌ مِنَ الله وَالله.
1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad and Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father all from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Salmah Sahib al-Sabiriy from abu al-Sabbah al-Kinaniy who said: I heard Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام say, "Fasting during the month of Sha‘ban and the month of Ramadan in a continuous manner is returning to Allah. It, by Allah, is repenting.”
