2. Ahmad ibn Idris has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar from al-Misma‘iy who has heard the following: “
I heard abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), giving advice to his children in the beginning of the month of Ramadan. The Imam said, ‘Make yourselves to work hard; in it (month of Ramadan), sustenance is distributed and the duration of lives is written down. During this month, it is decided who should join the delegation before Allah. In it, there is a night when one good deed is better than a good deed for one thousand months.’”
2ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنِ الْمِسْمَعِيِّ
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) يُوصِي وُلْدَهُ إِذَا دَخَلَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ فَاجْهَدُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ فَإِنَّ فِيهِ تُقَسَّمُ الأَرْزَاقُ وَتُكْتَبُ الآجَالُ وَفِيهِ يُكْتَبُ وَفْدُ الله الَّذِينَ يَفِدُونَ إِلَيْهِ وَفِيهِ لَيْلَةٌ الْعَمَلُ فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ فِي أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ.
