Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whatever good deed the son of Adam does, its reward is multiplied from ten times up to seven hundred times. Allah Almighty says: Except for fasting, for it is for Me and I will give its reward. He leaves his food for My sake, he leaves his drink for My sake, he leaves his desires for My sake, so I will give its reward. The fasting person will have two joys: one joy at the time of breaking his fast, and one joy when he meets his Lord. The smell from the mouth of the fasting person, which comes due to leaving food, is purer with Allah than the fragrance of musk."
