According to Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him), the Prophet (PBUH) said: "The month of Ramadan has come to you, it is a blessed month that Allah has commanded you to fast. During this month the gates of the heavens are opened, the gates of hell are closed and the devils are chained.

Allah has in this month a night that is better than a thousand months, the one who is deprived of his good is truly deprived of all good.
