It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Every good deed of the son of Adam is increased for him from ten times up to seven hundred times, except for fasting (about which Allah Almighty says): Fasting is especially for Me and I Myself will give its reward. The fasting person leaves his desires and food for My sake. The fasting person has two occasions of joy and happiness: when he breaks his fast, he is happy, and when he meets Allah Almighty, he will also be happy. The smell from the mouth of the fasting person is more pleasant to Allah than the fragrance of musk.
