What are the five things that Allah bestowed upon the Ummah of Muhammad (peace be upon him) in Ramadan that He did not give to any prophet before him, as stated in the noble Hadith?
It is mentioned in Shu'ab al-Iman by Al-Bayhaqi, with a weak chain of narration, from Jabir ibn Abdullah, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "My Ummah has been given five things in the month of that no prophet before me was given: The first is that on the first night of Ramadan, Allah Almighty looks at them, and whoever Allah looks at will never be punished. The second is that the scent of their mouths when they break their fast is more pleasant to Allah than the scent of musk. The third is that the angels seek forgiveness for them every day and night. The fourth is that Allah Almighty commands His Paradise, saying to it: 'Prepare yourself and adorn yourself for My servants; they are about to rest from the toil of this world into My abode and My generosity.' As for the fifth, on the last night, they are all forgiven." A man from the people asked: "Is it Laylat al-Qadr?" He said: "No, do you not see the workers who, when they finish their work, are paid their full wages?"
