"The one who fast the month of Ramadan and then 6 days of Shawwal, is so purified of sins as he was born just today."
{Muslim, Abu Da'ud}
"Whoever observes the Ramadan fast and follows it with six days of fast in Shawwal, it is as if he has fasted Dahr (the whole year)."
{Abu Ayyub Ansari [Radhi Allahu Anhu] Sahih Bukhari}
Analyzing this hadith, the Jurists said: . It follows, then, that one Ramadan is equivalent to ten months of fasting, and the clincher, six days, is equal to two months, (6x10=60). That undoubtedly completes the year's twelve months. Thus, we see the reason perhaps why Huzrat Muhammad [Sall Allahu Alaihi Wasallam] mentioned six days after Ramadan in Shawwal, not five. Also, our jurists (`Ulama) explained how according to this hadith, a Muslim who fasts during Ramadan every year and follows it with six days fast of Shawwal, will be credited for fasting a whole lifetime.
