It was narrated from Jabir bin Abdullah [may Allah be pleased with them] that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) set out for Makkah in Ramadan during the year of the conquest, and he fasted until he reached Kura’ Al-Ghamim, and the people fasted. Then he called for a vessel of water, for which he lifted up so that the people may see it, and then he drank it. After that it was said to him that some of the people were still fasting. He said: “Those are the disobedient ones, those are the disobedient ones.”

حَدَّثَنِى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ - يَعْنِى ابْنَ عَبْدِ الْمَجِيدِ - حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ - رضى الله عنهما - أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- خَرَجَ عَامَ الْفَتْحِ إِلَى مَكَّةَ فِى رَمَضَانَ فَصَامَ حَتَّى بَلَغَ كُرَاعَ الْغَمِيمِ فَصَامَ النَّاسُ ثُمَّ دَعَا بِقَدَحٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ فَرَفَعَهُ حَتَّى نَظَرَ النَّاسُ إِلَيْهِ ثُمَّ شَرِبَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ إِنَّ بَعْضَ النَّاسِ قَدْ صَامَ فَقَالَ « أُولَئِكَ الْعُصَاةُ أُولَئِكَ الْعُصَاةُ ».

It was narrated from Jafar with this chain (a Hadith similar to no. 2610), and he added: It was said to him (SAW): ‘Fasting is proving hard for the people, and they are waiting to see what you will do.’ He called for vessel of water after Asr.”

وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ - يَعْنِى الدَّرَاوَرْدِىَّ - عَنْ جَعْفَرٍ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَزَادَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ إِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ شَقَّ عَلَيْهِمُ الصِّيَامُ وَإِنَّمَا يَنْظُرُونَ فِيمَا فَعَلْتَ. فَدَعَا بِقَدَحٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ.

It was narrated that Jabir bin Abdullah [may Allah be pleased with them] said: “The Messenger of Allah was on a journey, and he saw a man around whom the people had gathered and he was being shaded. He said: ‘What is the matter with him?’ The said: ‘(He is) a man who is fasting.’ The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: ‘It is not righteous for a man to fast when travelling.’”

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِى شَيْبَةَ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى وَابْنُ بَشَّارٍ جَمِيعًا عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ - قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ - عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ - رضى الله عنهما - قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فِى سَفَرٍ فَرَأَى رَجُلاً قَدِ اجْتَمَعَ النَّاسُ عَلَيْهِ وَقَدْ ظُلِّلَ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ « مَا لَهُ ». قَالُوا رَجُلٌ صَائِمٌ. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « لَيْسَ مِنَ الْبِرِّ أَنْ تَصُومُوا فِى السَّفَرِ ».

It was narrated from Shu’bah with this chain (a Hadith similar to no. 2613), but Shu’bah said: “I was informed by Yahya bin Abi Kathir that he used to add to this Hadith. And with this chain in it said: ‘You should avail yourselves of the concession that Allah has granted to you.’” He said: “So when I asked him he did not remember it.”

وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ النَّوْفَلِىُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ. نَحْوَهُ وَزَادَ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ وَكَانَ يَبْلُغُنِى عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِى كَثِيرٍ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَزِيدُ فِى هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ وَفِى هَذَا الإِسْنَادِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ « عَلَيْكُمْ بِرُخْصَةِ اللَّهِ الَّذِى رَخَّصَ لَكُمْ ». قَالَ فَلَمَّا سَأَلْتُهُ لَمْ يَحْفَظْهُ.

It was narrated that Abu Sa’eed Al-Khudri [may Allah be pleased with them] said: “We went out on a campaign with the Messenger of Allah (SAW) when sixteen days of Ramadan had passed. Some of us fasted and some of us did not. Those who were fasting did not criticize the one who were not, and those who were not fasting, did not criticize those who were.”

حَدَّثَنَا هَدَّابُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامُ بْنُ يَحْيَى حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ عَنْ أَبِى نَضْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِى سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِىِّ - رضى الله عنه - قَالَ غَزَوْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- لِسِتَّ عَشْرَةَ مَضَتْ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ فَمِنَّا مَنْ صَامَ وَمِنَّا مَنْ أَفْطَرَ فَلَمْ يَعِبِ الصَّائِمُ عَلَى الْمُفْطِرِ وَلاَ الْمُفْطِرُ عَلَى الصَّائِمِ.

A Hadith similar to that of Hammam (no. 2615) was narrated from Qatadah with this chain. But in the Hadith of Al-Taimi and Umar bin Amir it says: “when eighteen days had passed.” In the Hadith of Saeed it syas: “when twelve days had passed.” (In the hadith of) Shu’bah it says: “When seventeen or nineteen days had passed.”

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِى بَكْرٍ الْمُقَدَّمِىُّ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ التَّيْمِىِّ ح وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ مَهْدِىٍّ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ وَقَالَ ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ وَقَالَ ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا سَالِمُ بْنُ نُوحٍ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ يَعْنِى ابْنَ عَامِرٍ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِى شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ كُلُّهُمْ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ. نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ هَمَّامٍ غَيْرَ أَنَّ فِى حَدِيثِ التَّيْمِىِّ وَعُمَرَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ وَهِشَامٍ لِثَمَانَ عَشْرَةَ خَلَتْ وَفِى حَدِيثِ سَعِيدٍ فِى ثِنْتَىْ عَشْرَةَ. وَشُعْبَةَ لِسَبْعَ عَشْرَةَ أَوْ تِسْعَ عَشْرَةَ.

It was narrated that Abu Saeed Al-Khudri [may Allah be pleased with them] said: “we were travelling with the Messenger of Allah (SAW) in Ramadan, and those who were fasting were not criticized for that, and those who were not fasting were not criticized for that.”

حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِىٍّ الْجَهْضَمِىُّ حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرٌ - يَعْنِى ابْنَ مُفَضَّلٍ - عَنْ أَبِى مَسْلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِى نَضْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِى سَعِيدٍ - رضى الله عنه - قَالَ كُنَّا نُسَافِرُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فِى رَمَضَانَ فَمَا يُعَابُ عَلَى الصَّائِمِ صَوْمُهُ وَلاَ عَلَى الْمُفْطِرِ إِفْطَارُهُ.

It was narrated that Abu Saeed Al-Khudri [may Allah be pleased with them] said: “We went out on a campaign with the Messenger of Allah (SAW) during the month of Ramadan, and some of us were fasting and some were not. Those who were fasting did not find fault with those who were not, and those who were not fasting did not find fault with those who were. They thought that for those who found the strength and fasted, that was good; and they thought that for those who found themselves weak and did not fast, that was good too.”

حَدَّثَنِى عَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ الْجُرَيْرِىِّ عَنْ أَبِى نَضْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِى سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِىِّ - رضى الله عنه - قَالَ كُنَّا نَغْزُو مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فِى رَمَضَانَ فَمِنَّا الصَّائِمُ وَمِنَّا الْمُفْطِرُ فَلاَ يَجِدُ الصَّائِمُ عَلَى الْمُفْطِرِ وَلاَ الْمُفْطِرُ عَلَى الصَّائِمِ يَرَوْنَ أَنَّ مَنْ وَجَدَ قُوَّةً فَصَامَ فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ حَسَنٌ وَيَرَوْنَ أَنَّ مَنْ وَجَدَ ضَعْفًا فَأَفْطَرَ فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ حَسَنٌ.

It was narrated that Abu Saeed Al Khudri and Jabir bin Abdullah [may Allah be pleased with them] said: “We travelled with the Messenger of Allah and some fasted and some did not, and neither group criticized the other.”

حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الأَشْعَثِىُّ وَسَهْلُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ وَسُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَحُسَيْنُ بْنُ حُرَيْثٍ كُلُّهُمْ عَنْ مَرْوَانَ - قَالَ سَعِيدٌ أَخْبَرَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ - عَنْ عَاصِمٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا نَضْرَةَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِى سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِىِّ وَجَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ - رضى الله عنهم - قَالاَ سَافَرْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فَيَصُومُ الصَّائِمُ وَيُفْطِرُ الْمُفْطِرُ فَلاَ يَعِيبُ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ.

It was narrated that Humaid said: “I went out and I was fasting. They said to me: ‘Repeat it.’ I said: ‘Anas told me that the companions of the Messenger of Allah used to travel, and those who fasted did not criticize those who did not, and those who did not fast did not criticize those who did.’”Then I met Ibn Abi Mulaikah and he narrated something similar to me from Aishah [may Allah be pleased with her].

وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِى شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الأَحْمَرُ عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ قَالَ خَرَجْتُ فَصُمْتُ فَقَالُوا لِى أَعِدْ. قَالَ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ أَنَسًا أَخْبَرَنِى أَنَّ أَصْحَابَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- كَانُوا يُسَافِرُونَ فَلاَ يَعِيبُ الصَّائِمُ عَلَى الْمُفْطِرِ وَلاَ الْمُفْطِرُ عَلَى الصَّائِمِ. فَلَقِيتُ ابْنَ أَبِى مُلَيْكَةَ فَأَخْبَرَنِى عَنْ عَائِشَةَ - رضى الله عنها - بِمِثْلِهِ.
