"Whoever fasts Ramadan then follows it with six days (fasts) of Shawwal, it is as if he fasted a lifetime."
Sahih Muslim 1164 (2758)
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"Whoever fasts Ramadan, then follows it with six from Shawwal, then that is (equal in reward) to fasting every day."
Jami at-Tirmidhi 759 | Sahih
and as for how you will get the reward, The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) explained this when he (ﷺ) said: "Whoever fasts for six days after (Eid) al-Fitr has completed the year and whoever does a good deed will have the reward of ten like it."
Sunan Ibn Majah 1715 | Sahih
🗒🖌 Calculation:
30 fasts of Ramadan
1 fast = 10 good deeds so 30 fasts = 300 good deeds.
6 fasts of Shawwal
1 fast = 10 good deeds so 6 fasts = 60 good deeds.
300 + 60 good deeds = 360 (a year approx) good deeds.
NOTE: DO NOT miss this great opportunity In sha Allah.

بمناسبة الستة من شوال، فمن الفوائد المهمة أنه يستحب صيام ستة أيام حسب اختيار العبد، قبل نهاية الشهر لإكمال ستة أيام من شوال وجني ثمارها. أجر صيام سنة لأن هذا هو يوم عيد الفطر الذي يبدأ يومه الأول خلال الثلاثين يومًا بعد رمضان.
(ملاحظة رقم 1: شوال هو الشهر العاشر من التقويم الإسلامي (الهجري) ويبدأ يوم الأول فيه بعيد الفطر. وهو مشهور بستة أيام من شوال، وهي ستة صيام نافلة لها أجر عظيم)
(ملاحظة رقم 2: صيام ستة أيام أثناء من شهر شوال إتباع عيد الفطر، بمثابة استمرار للتجديد الذاتي، ويعتقد أن له أجرًا روحيًا كبيرًا)
(ملاحظة رقم 3: أول يوم من شوال هو عيد الفطر، صيام يوم الأول من شوال حرم)

Narrated 'Aisha: Allah's Apostle said, "When a woman gives in charity some of the foodstuff (which she has in her house) without spoiling it, she will receive the reward for what she has spent, and her husband will receive the reward because of his earning, and the storekeeper will also have a reward similar to it. The reward of one will not decrease the reward of the others . "
The Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) said, "The best charity is that which is practiced by a wealthy person. And start giving first to your dependents." The Prophet said, "The upper hand is better than the lower hand (i.e. he who gives in charity is better than him who takes it). One should start giving first to his dependents.
