شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ الَّذٖٓی اُنْزِلَ فٖیهِ الْقُرْاٰنُ هُدًى لِلنَّاسِ وَبَیِّنَاتٍ مِنَ الْهُدٰى وَالْفُرْقَانِۚ فَمَنْ شَهِدَ مِنْكُمُ الشَّهْرَ فَلْیَصُمْهُؕ وَمَنْ كَانَ مَرٖیضًا اَوْ عَلٰى سَفَرٍ فَعِدَّةٌ مِنْ اَیَّامٍ اُخَرَؕ یُرٖیدُ اللّٰهُ بِكُمُ الْیُسْرَ وَلَا یُرٖیدُ بِكُمُ الْعُسْرَؗ وَلِتُكْمِلُوا الْعِدَّةَ وَلِتُكَبِّرُوا اللّٰهَ عَلٰى مَا هَدٰیكُمْ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ

Translations

The month of Ramadhan [is that] in which was revealed the Qur'an, a guidance for the people and clear proofs of guidance and criterion. So whoever sights [the new moon of] the month, let him fast it; and whoever is ill or on a journey - then an equal number of other days. Allah intends for you ease and does not intend for you hardship and [wants] for you to complete the period and to glorify Allah for that [to] which He has guided you; and perhaps you will be grateful

Saheeh International

The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Qur'an, a guidance for mankind, and clear proofs of the guidance, and the Criterion (of right and wrong). And whosoever of you is present, let him fast the month, and whosoever of you is sick or on a journey, (let him fast the same) number of other days. Allah desireth for you ease; He desireth not hardship for you; and (He desireth) that ye should complete the period, and that ye should magnify Allah for having guided you, and that peradventure ye may be thankful
