The month of Ramadan is the one in
          which the Quran was sent down, a guidance for mankind, clear proofs
          for the guidance, the Criterion; so whoever amongst you witnesses this
          month, let him fast it. (Surah al-Baqarah 2:185)
Ramadan, a blessed month, has come to
          you during which Allah has made it obligatory for you to fast. In it
          the gates of Heaven are opened, the gates of al-Jahim are locked, and
          the rebellious devils are chained. In it Allah has a night which is
          better than a thousand months. He who is deprived of its good has
          indeed suffered deprivation. (Hadith - Al-Tirmidhi, Narrated Abu
          Hurayrah)
Whoever established prayers on the
          night of Qadr out of sincere faith and hoping for a reward from Allah,
          then all his previous sins will be forgiven; and whoever fasts in the
          month of Ramadan out of sincere faith, and hoping for a reward from
          Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven. (Hadith - Sahih
          Bukhari, Narrated Abu Hurayrah)
