Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ ‏ "‏ مَنْ صَامَ رَمَضَانَ ثُمَّ أَتْبَعَهُ بِسِتٍّ مِنْ شَوَّالٍ، كَانَ كَصَوْمِ الدَّهْرِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Ali ibn Muhammad narrated to us; Abdullah ibn Numayr narrated to us, from Sa‘d ibn Sa‘id, from Umar ibn Thabit, from Abu Ayyub, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘Whoever fasts Ramadan and then follows it with six days of Shawwal, it is like fasting for all time.’
