Chapter on the Virtue of the Month of Ramadan and the Prayers Within It in Addition to the Recommended Prayers Mentioned in the Other Months

فَأَمَّا مَا رَوَاهُ اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنِ اِبْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنِ اَلْحَلَبِيِّ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلصَّلاَةِ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فَقَالَ« ثَلاَثَ عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً مِنْهَا اَلْوَتْرُ وَ رَكْعَتَا اَلصُّبْحِ بَعْدَ اَلْفَجْرِ كَذَلِكَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ يُصَلِّي وَ أَنَا كَذَلِكَ أُصَلِّي وَ لَوْ كَانَ خَيْراً لَمْ يَتْرُكْهُ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ»
As for what was narrated by al-Husayn ibn Said from Safwan, from Ibn Muskan, from al-Halabi, who said: I asked Imam عليه السلام about the prayer in the Month of Ramadan. Imam عليه السلام said: “Thirteen rak’ahs among them, the Witr and the two rak’ahs of dawn after Fajr. That is how the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, may Allah سبحانه وتعالى bless him and his family, used to pray, and I also pray in the same way. And if there had been any good in anything more than that, the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, may Allah سبحانه وتعالى bless him and his family, would not have left it.”
