Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، - رضى الله عنه - عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " شَهْرَا عِيدٍ لاَ يَنْقُصَانِ رَمَضَانُ وَذُو الْحِجَّةِ " .
Translation
Abu Bakra reported from his father that the Prophet said, “The two Eid months do not fall short: Ramadan and Dhu al-Hijjah.”
Translation notes
The phrase “do not fall short” is rendered literally; its intended interpretation is debated, so no explanatory interpretation has been added.
