And the Statement of Allah, "O you who believe!
Fasting is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you so that
you may become Allah conscious." [V.2:183]
Narrated By Talha bin 'Ubaid-Ullah : A bedouin with unkempt
hair came to Allah's Apostle and said, "O Prophet(SWS)! Inform me what
Allah has made compulsory for me as regards the prayers." He replied:
"You have to offer perfectly the five compulsory prayers in a day and
night (24 hours), unless you want to pray Nawafil." The bedouin further
asked, "Inform me what Allah has made compulsory for me as regards
fasting." He replied, "You have to fast during the whole month of
Ramadan, unless you want to fast more as Nawafil." The bedouin further
asked, "Tell me how much Zakat Allah has enjoined on me." Thus,
Allah's Apostle informed him about all the rules (i.e. fundamentals) of Islam.
The bedouin then said, "By Him Who has honoured you, I will neither
perform any Nawafil nor will I decrease what Allah has enjoined on me. Allah's
Apostle said, "If he is saying the truth, he will succeed (or he will be
granted Paradise)."
