The intercession of one’s fasts and recitation of the Qur’aan Majeed

عن عبد الله بن عمرو: أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: الصيام والقرآن يشفعان للعبد يوم القيامة، يقول الصيام: أي رب، منعته الطعام والشهوات بالنهار، فشفعني فيه، ويقول القرآن: منعته النوم بالليل، فشفعني فيه قال: فيشفعان (مسند أحمد، الرقم: 6626)

Hazrat Abdullah bin Amr (radhiyallahu ‘anhuma) reports that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said: “The fast which a person had kept as well and the Qur’aan Majeed which he recited will intercede on behalf of him on the Day of Qiyaamah. The fast will say, ‘O My Rabb! I prevented him from consuming food and fulfilling his desires during the day, so accept my intercession on his behalf.’ The recitation of the Qur’aan Majeed will say, ‘I prevented him from sleep at night so accept my intercession on his behalf.’ Their intercession on his behalf will be accepted by Allah Ta’ala.”
