[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'None of you should say, "I have observed Ramadan in its entirety." For Allah knows best and I fear that His Ummah (community) may boast about themselves.' Abd al-Wahhab said, 'Does Allah need His Ummah to boast about themselves? Or does he rather fear that they will fall into deep sleep or negligence?'"  

أحمد:٢٠٤٨٨ – حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ وَعَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكَرَةَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَا يَقُولَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ إِنِّي قُمْتُ رَمَضَانَ كُلَّهُ قَالَ فَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ أَخَشِيَ عَلَى أُمَّتِهِ أَنْ تُزَكِّيَ أَنْفُسَهَا قَالَ عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ فَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ أَخَشِيَ التَّزْكِيَةَ عَلَى أُمَّتِهِ؟ أَوْ قَالَ لَابُدَّ مِنْ نَوْمٍ أَوْ غَفْلَةٍ
