Hadith on Ramadan: The virtue of fasting during Ramadan and praying during the Night of Decree
Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said, “Whoever fasts the month of Ramadan out of faith and seeking reward, then Allah will forgive all of his previous sins; and whoever stands in prayer during the Night of Decree out of faith and seeking reward, then Allah will forgive all of his previous sins.”[Sahih Muslim, Book 4, Number 1664]

Abu Darda (radiallaahu ‘anhu) narrated that the Messenger of Allaah (salallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:
Whoever
seeks a path to knowledge, Allaah will make easy for him a path to
Paradise. Indeed, the angels lower their wings being pleased with the
one who seeks knowledge. Whoever is in the heavens and on earth, even
the fish in the sea, ask for forgiveness for the scholar. The
superiority of the scholar over the worshipper is like that of the moon
over all other heavenly bodies. The scholars are the inheritors of the
Prophets, for the Prophets did not leave behind Dinars and Dirhams, but
they left behind knowledge; and whoever receives it, receives an
abundance of good fortune.
(Ahmad, Abu Dawud; authentic)
