Hadith.1826 - Amr ibn Khalid narrates from Abu Ja‘far Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as), who said: "The Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) would fast Sha‘ban and the Month of Ramadan together without separating them, but he would forbid people from joining them together. He used to say: ‘They are the months of Allah (swt), and they are an expiation for the sins committed before and after them.’”
[2]« ينهى الناس حمله الشيخ- رحمه اللّه- على الوصال المحرم على غيره صلّى اللّه عليه و آله بأن لا يفطر بين آخر شعبان و أول رمضان، و يمكن أن يقرأ على بناء الافعال بمعنى الاعلام و الابلاغ، و يحتمل أيضا أن يكون« الناس» بالرفع ليكون فاعل« ينهى» أي لم يكن النبيّ صلّى اللّه عليه و آله ينهى عن الوصل بل كان يفعله و الناس أي العامّة ينهون عنه افتراء عليه، و الأظهر الحمل على التقية.( المرآة).ص 93

Hadith.1828 - It is narrated that the wives of the Prophet (sw) (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), if they had missed obligatory fasts, would delay making them up until Sha‘ban, disliking to prevent the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) from fulfilling his needs. When Sha‘ban arrived, they would fast, and he would fast with them. He (sw) (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) used to say: "Sha‘ban is my month."

Hadith.1830 - It is narrated by Hariz from Zurara, who said: "I said to Abu Ja‘far (Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as)): 'What do you say about the night of the middle of Sha‘ban?' Imam (as) said: 'On that night, Allah (swt), the Almighty, forgives more of His creation than the number of the hairs on the goats of the tribe of Kalb. On that night, Allah (swt), the Almighty, sends down His angels to the lowest heaven and to the earth in Mecca.'"

Hadith.1831 - It is narrated by al-Hasan ibn Mahbub from Abu Ayyub, from Abu al-Ward, from Abu Ja‘far (Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as)), who said: "The Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) addressed the people on the last Friday of Sha‘ban. He praised Allah (swt) and glorified Him, then said: 'O people, indeed, a month is approaching you in which there is a night "better than a thousand months." It is the Month of Ramadan. Allah (swt) has made its fasting obligatory and standing in prayer on its nights equivalent to performing seventy voluntary prayers in other months. Whoever performs one act of goodness and charity in it will receive the reward of performing an obligatory act, and whoever performs an obligatory act will be rewarded as if he performed seventy obligatory acts in other months. It is the month of patience, and the reward for patience is Paradise. It is the month of solidarity and a month in which Allah (swt) increases the provision of the believer. Whoever provides food for a fasting believer to break their fast will have, with Allah (swt), the reward of freeing a slave and forgiveness for their past sins.' Someone asked: 'O Messenger of Allah (swt), not all of us can afford to provide food for a fasting person.' He (sw) said: 'Indeed, Allah (swt), the Blessed and Exalted, is generous and will grant this reward to one who provides even a sip of milk, a drink of fresh water, or a few dates to a fasting person. Whoever lightens the burden of their servant during this month, Allah (swt) will ease their reckoning. This is a month whose beginning is mercy, its middle is forgiveness, and its end is deliverance and freedom from the Fire. You are in need of four qualities during this month: two by which you please Allah (swt) and two without which you cannot do without. As for the two that please Him, Allah (swt), they are the testimony that there is no god but Allah (swt) and that I am the Messenger of Allah (swt). As for the two you cannot do without, they are asking Allah (swt) for your needs and for Paradise, and seeking Allah’s (swt) protection from the Fire.'"

[4]أي يساوى فيه الناس في الجوع و العطش غنيا كانوا أو فقيرا أو يساوى الناس في الحكم أي لا يجوز لاحدهم تناول شيء من المفطرات، أو هو شهر ينبغي فيه أن يشرك الأغنياء الفقراء و أهل الحاجة في معايشهم فيكون المعنى شهر المساهمة و المشاركة في المعاش.ص 95
