[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: "Fasting is a shield, like a shield from fighting. And the last thing that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ advised me when he sent me to Taif was: 'O Uthman, go ahead and perform the prayer, for there are elderly people and people with needs in the community.'"
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ الصِّيَامُ جُنَّةٌ كَجُنَّةِ أَحَدِكُمْ مِنَ الْقِتَالِ وَكَانَ آخِرُ مَا عَهِدَ إِلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حِينَ بَعَثَنِي إِلَى الطَّائِفِ قَالَ يَا عُثْمَانُ تَجَوَّزْ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَإِنَّ فِي الْقَوْمِ الْكَبِيرَ وَذَا الْحَاجَةِ
