[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Indeed, your Lord says, 'O son of Adam, with each good deed you do, I will multiply it tenfold up to seven hundred times, and fasting is for Me and I will reward for it. Fasting is a shield from the Hellfire, and the odor from the mouth of a fasting person is more pleasant to Allah than the scent of musk. If someone insults or harms you while you are fasting, say, 'I am fasting.''"

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ رَبَّكُمْ ﷻ يَقُولُ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ بِكُلِّ حَسَنَةٍ عَشْرُ حَسَنَاتٍ إِلَى سَبْعِ مِائَةِ ضِعْفٍ إِلَى أَضْعَافٍ كَثِيرَةٍ وَالصَّوْمُ لِي وَأَنَا أَجْزِي بِهِ وَالصَّوْمُ جُنَّةٌ مِنَ النَّارِ وَلَخُلُوفُ فَمِ الصَّائِمِ أَطْيَبُ عِنْدَ اللهِ ﷻ مِنْ رِيحِ الْمِسْكِ وَإِنْ جَهِلَ عَلَى أَحَدِكُمْ جَاهِلٌ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ فَلْيَقُلْ إِنِّي صَائِمٌ

"There is no good deed that the son of Adam does, but between ten and seven hundred Hasanahs will be recorded for him. Allah, the mighty and sublime, said: 'Except fasing, for it is for me and I shall reward for it. He gives up his desires and his food for my sake. Fasting is a shield, and the fasting person has two moments of joy. One when he breaks his fast and another when he meets his Lord. And the smell that comes from the mouth of the fasting person is better before Allah than the fragrance of musk." '

The Messenger of Allah said: "Indeed your Lord said: 'Every good deed is rewarded with ten of the same up to seven hundred times over. Fasting is for Me, and I shall reward for it.' Fasting is a shield from the Fire. The smell coming from the mouth of the one fasting is more pleasant to Allah than the scent of musk. If one of you is abused by an ignorant person while fasting, then let him say: 'Indeed I am fasting.'"

[Machine] Narrated Abu Huraira: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Allah, the Most Blessed and Exalted, said: 'Every good deed of the son of Adam will be multiplied; a good deed is multiplied by ten to seven hundred times, except for fasting, for it is for Me and I will reward for it. The fasting person abstains from food, drink, and sexual relations, so My reward is for him. He leaves his desires and food for My sake.' The person observing fasting should avoid obscene speech and ignorance. If someone abuses him or quarrels with him, he should say: 'I am fasting, I am fasting.'"
