11. Fasting
١١۔ كِتَابُ الصِّيَامِ
[Machine] During Ramadan at the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, whoever wanted to fast (could), and whoever wanted to break their fast (could) and feed a needy person (instead) until the verse was revealed, "So whoever sights [the new moon of] the month, let him fast it." [Quran 2:185]
كُنَّا فِي رَمَضَانَ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ شَاءَ صَامَ وَمَنْ شَاءَ أَفْطَرَ وَافْتَدَى بِطَعَامِ مِسْكِينٍ حَتَّى أُنْزِلَتِ الْآيَةُ {فَمَنْ شَهِدَ مِنْكُمُ الشَّهْرَ فَلْيَصُمْهُ} [البقرة 185]
Salamah bin Al Akwa said “After the revelation of the verse “For those who can do it(with hardship) is a ransom, the feeding of one, that is indigent, is one of us intended to leave fast and pay ransom, he could do so.” until the verse following it was revealed and abrogated the (previous) verse.” (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2315)
لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {وَعَلَى الَّذِينَ يُطِيقُونَهُ فِدْيَةٌ طَعَامُ مِسْكِينٍ} [البقرة 184] كَانَ مَنْ أَرَادَ مِنَّا أَنْ يُفْطِرَ وَيَفْتَدِيَ حَتَّى نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ الَّتِي بَعْدَهَا فَنَسَخَتْهَا
[Machine] This verse, meaning "a ransom of feeding a poor person" [Surah Al-Baqarah 184], is the verse that follows it, "So whoever sights [the new moon of] the month, let him fast it" [Surah Al-Baqarah 185].
نَسَخَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ يَعْنِي {فِدْيَةٌ طَعَامُ مِسْكِينٍ} [البقرة 184] هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ الَّتِي بَعْدَهَا {فَمَنْ شَهِدَ مِنْكُمُ الشَّهْرَ فَلْيَصُمْهُ} [البقرة 185]
Ibn ʿUmar recited the verse: "They had a choice either to fast or to feed a poor person for every day, and said that the order of this Verse was canceled. (Using translation from Bukhārī 1949)
