[Machine] Hijama (cupping) is disliked for the fasting person due to fear of weakness.  

إِنَّمَا كُرِهَتِ الْحِجَامَةُ لِلصَّائِمِ مَخَافَةَ الضَّعْفِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ allowed the fasting person and the one who performs cupping to turn their faces away from the Qibla. Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "All of them are trustworthy, except for the one who is not in the state of Ihram." The Sheikh said, "And it has been narrated from another face, from Abu al-Mutawakkil, in a raised manner."  

رَخَّصَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الْقُبْلَةِ لِلصَّائِمِ وَالْحِجَامَةِ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ كُلُّهُمْ ثِقَاتٌ وَغَيْرُ مُعْتَمِرٍ يَرْوِيهِ مَوْقُوفًا قَالَ الشَّيْخُ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنْ أَبِي الْمُتَوَكِّلِ مَرْفُوعًا  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ allowed cupping for the fasting person. Abu Bakr ibn al-Harith al-Faqih informed us that Ali ibn Umar al-Hafiz narrated to us, and he said Abu Ubaidullah al-Muaddal informed him, and he said that Al-Hasan ibn Khalaf al-Bazzaz narrated to him, and he said that Ishaq al-Azraq narrated to him, and he said that Sufyan mentioned it in a similar manner. Ali said, "All of them are trustworthy." Al-Ashja'i also narrated it and he is trustworthy. The sheikh said, "Except that Al-Ashja'i mentioned in his hadith."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَخَّصَ فِي الْحِجَامَةِ لِلصَّائِمِ 8270 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ الْفَقِيهُ أنبأ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو عُبَيْدِ اللهِ الْمُعَدَّلُ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ بِوَاسِطَ ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ خَلَفٍ الْبَزَّازُ ثنا إِسْحَاقُ الْأَزْرَقُ ثنا سُفْيَانُ فَذَكَرَهُ بِمِثْلِهِ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ كُلُّهُمْ ثِقَاتٌ وَرَوَاهُ الْأَشْجَعِيُّ أَيْضًا وَهُوَ مِنَ الثِّقَاتِ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ إِلَّا أَنَّ الْأَشْجَعِيَّ قَالَ فِي حَدِيثِهِ رَخَّصَ  

[Machine] He was lenient with the fasting person regarding cupping and kissing, and it was also narrated from another source from Abu Sa'id.  

رُخِّصَ لِلصَّائِمِ فِي الْحِجَامَةِ وَالْقُبْلَةِ وَرُوِيَ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Neither vomiting, nor emission, nor cupping breaks the fast of the one who is fasting. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2376)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَا يُفْطِرُ مَنْ قَاءَ وَلَا مَنِ احْتَجَمَ وَلَا مَنِ احْتَلَمَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There are three things that do not break the fast: vomiting, cupping, and having a wet dream."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثَلَاثٌ لَا يُفْطِرْنَ الصَّائِمَ الْقَيْءُ وَالْحِجَامَةُ وَالْحُلْمُ كَذَا  

[Machine] From the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ , from the Prophet ﷺ , he said: "Whoever vomits, or has a nosebleed, or has a wet dream, it does not break his fast." Ali ibn Ahmad ibn Abdan informed us, Abu Al-Qasim Sulayman ibn Ahmad informed us, Ishaaq Al-Dabari informed us, from Abdul Razzaq, from Al-Thawri, who mentioned it, and it has also been narrated from Al-Thawri in a similar narration by Abdul Rahman ibn Zaid, but it is not authentic. And we have also heard in the concession (i.e. allowance) regarding that from Saad ibn Abi Waqqas, Abdullah ibn Mas'ud, Abdullah ibn Abbas, Abdullah ibn Umar, Al-Husayn ibn Ali, Zaid ibn Arqam, Aisha bint Siddiq, Um Salama, and others.  

مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لَا يُفْطِرُ مَنْ قَاءَ وَلَا مَنِ احْتَجَمَ وَلَا مَنِ احْتَلَمَ أَخْبَرَنَاهُ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ ثنا أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ ثنا إِسْحَاقُ الدَّبَرِيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ عَنِ الثَّوْرِيِّ فَذَكَرَهُ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنِ الثَّوْرِيِّ نَحْوُ رِوَايَةِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ وَلَيْسَ بِصَحِيحٍ وَرُوِّينَا فِي الرُّخْصَةِ فِي ذَلِكَ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ وَالْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ وَزَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ وَعَائِشَةَ بِنْتِ الصِّدِّيقِ وَأُمِّ سَلَمَةَ ؓ أَجْمَعِينَ  

[Machine] Narrated by Abu Bakr Al-Farisi, who narrated from Abu Ishaq Al-Asbahani, who narrated from Abu Ahmad ibn Farris, who narrated from Muhammad ibn Ismail Al-Bukhari, who narrated from Ayyash, who narrated from Abdul A'la, who narrated from Yunus, who narrated from Al-Hasan, who narrated from the Prophet ﷺ : "Yes" and then he said, "Allah knows best."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ نَعَمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ اللهُ أَعْلَمُ 8275 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْفَارِسِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ ثنا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ بْنُ فَارِسٍ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ الْبُخَارِيُّ حَدَّثَنِي عَيَّاشٌ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ  

[Machine] One of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ said, "The one who practices cupping and the one who is cupped both break their fast." Ali said,  

عَنْ غَيْرِ وَاحِدٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ  

The Prophet ﷺ as saying: A man who cups and a man who gets himself cupped break their fast. Abu Dawud said: Ibn Thawban transmitted a similar tradition from his father on the authority of Makhul through an chain of narrators mentioned by him. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2371)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ  

[Machine] Thawban, the freed slave of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, narrated: I went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for eighteen nights in the month of Ramadan, and then we came across a man getting his hair shaved in Al-Baqi'. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The one who gets his hair shaved and the one who gets his hair trimmed have broken their fast." And likewise...  

حَدَّثَنِي ثَوْبَانُ مَوْلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ خَرَجْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي ثَمَانِ عَشْرَةَ لَيْلَةً خَلَتْ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ يَحْتَجِمُ بِالْبَقِيعِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ وَكَذَلِكَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The one who uses a cupping glass and the one who has cupping done to them have broken their fast." Abu Muhammad Abdullah ibn Yahya ibn Abd al-Jabbar al-Sukkari informed us in Baghdad, Ismail ibn Muhammad al-Saffar narrated to us, on the authority of Ahmad ibn Mansur, on the authority of Abdul Razzaq, who mentioned it in similar fashion.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ 8280 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ السُّكَّرِيُّ بِبَغْدَادَ أنبأ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الصَّفَّارُ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ فَذَكَرَهُ بِمِثْلِهِ وَكَذَلِكَ  

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came upon a man in Al-Baqi' who was performing Ruku' (bowing) and he had grasped his hand for eighteen nights of Ramadan that had passed. The Hajim (one who performs Hajj) said, "The one performing Hajj and the one performing Umrah have broken their fast." Abu Dawood said, and Khaled Al-Hadha' from Abi Qilaba through the chain of Ayyub like this narration. Imam Ahmad said, and Asim Al-Ahwal also narrated from Abi Qilaba from Abi Al-Ash'ath from Shaddad, and it is as if Abi Qilaba heard the hadith from both men. And it has been said about Asim from Abi Qilaba from Abi Al-Ash'ath from Abi Asma'a from Shaddad.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَتَى عَلَى رَجُلٍ بِالْبَقِيعِ وَهُوَ يَحْتَجِمُ وَهُوَ آخِذٌ بِيَدِي لِثَمَانِ عَشْرَةَ خَلَتْ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ فَقَالَ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَرَوَاهُ خَالِدٌ الْحَذَّاءُ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ بِإِسْنَادِ أَيُّوبَ مِثْلَهُ قَالَ الْإِمَامُ أَحْمَدُ وَرَوَاهُ أَيْضًا عَاصِمٌ الْأَحْوَلُ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَشْعَثِ عَنْ شَدَّادٍ وَكَأَنَّ أَبَا قِلَابَةَ سَمِعَ الْحَدِيثَ مِنَ الرَّجُلَيْنِ جَمِيعًا وَقَدْ قِيلَ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَشْعَثِ عَنْ أَبِي أَسْمَاءَ عَنْ شَدَّادٍ  

[Machine] I passed with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in eighteen days of Ramadan and I saw a man who was doing the acts of Hajj. He said, "The person performing Hajj and the person performing Umrah have broken their fast." 8284 Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz informed us that Abu Muhammad Al-Azharani narrated to us, Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Al-Bara narrated to us, he said Ali ibn Al-Madini said, "He did not see the two Hadiths except as Sahih, and it is possible that Abu Asma heard it from them." Imam Ahmad said, and it was narrated from another source from Abu Asma from Thawban.  

مَرَرْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي ثَمَانِ عَشْرَةَ خَلَتْ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فَأَبْصَرَ رَجُلًا يَحْتَجِمُ فَقَالَ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ 8284 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أَنْبَأَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَزْهَرِيُّ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ الْبَرَاءِ قَالَ قَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمَدِينِيِّ مَا رَأَى الْحَدِيثَيْنِ إِلَّا صَحِيحَيْنِ وَقَدْ يُمْكِنُ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَبُو أَسْمَاءَ سَمِعَهُ مِنْهُمَا قَالَ الْإِمَامُ أَحْمَدُ وَرُوِيَ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنْ أَبِي أَسْمَاءَ عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ  

[Machine] On the authority of Thawban, a freed slave of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a man in Al-Baqi' who was observing I'tikaf for eighteen or sixteen days from Ramadan. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The one observing I'tikaf and the one following the rain calendar should break their fast." This was narrated by Al-Ala bin Al-Harith and Abdur Rahman bin Thawban from Mak'hul, Abu Asmaa from Thawban, and Ibn Jurayj from Mak'hul, who mentioned it. It was also narrated by Abu Ali Al-Rudhbari from Abu Bakr bin Dasa, who narrated it from Abu Dawud, who narrated it from Ahmad bin Hanbal, who narrated it from Muhammad bin Bakr and Abdul Razzaq, who narrated it from Ibn Jurayj, who said, "Mak'hul informed me." It was also narrated by Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari from the Prophet ﷺ .  

عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ مَوْلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ مَرَّ بِالْبَقِيعِ عَلَى رَجُلٍ يَحْتَجِمُ لِثَمَانِ عَشْرَةَ أَوْ لِسِتَّ عَشْرَةَ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ فَقَالَ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ وَرَوَاهُ الْعَلَاءُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ ثَوْبَانَ عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ عَنْ أَبِي أَسْمَاءَ عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ وَرَوَاهُ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ أَنَّ شَيْخًا مِنَ الْحِيِّ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ ثَوْبَانَ مَوْلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ 8286 أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ وَعَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي مَكْحُولٌ فَذَكَرَهُ وَرُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ  

[Machine] I entered upon Abu Musa al-Ash'ari while he was performing itikaf at night in Ramadan, and I said, "Wasn't this during the day?" He replied, "Are you commanding me to shed my blood while I am fasting? I have heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'The one observing itikaf and the one preventing others from entering itikaf should break their fast at such and such time."  

دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ وَهُوَ يَحْتَجِمُ لَيْلًا فِي رَمَضَانَ فَقُلْتُ أَلَا كَانَ هَذَا نَهَارًا قَالَ تَأْمُرُنِي أَنْ أُهْرِيقَ دَمِي وَأَنَا صَائِمٌ وَقَدْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ كَذَا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The one who plucks his hair and the one who is plucked are both breaking their fast." Abu Tahir al-Faqih narrated to us, who informed us on the authority of Abu Hamed ibn Bilal al-Bazzaz, who narrated to us on the authority of Abbas al-Duri, who narrated to us on the authority of Hasan ibn Rabi' who narrated to us on the authority of Dawud al-Attar, who narrated from Ibn Jurayj, who mentioned it in a similar manner, except that he said Abu Hurairah said, and the one who is shaved said instead of the one who is plucked. Qabisah also narrated it from Fitri ibn Khalifah, who narrated from Ata'a, who narrated from Ibn Abbas, who narrated from the Prophet ﷺ .  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ 8289 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو طَاهِرٍ الْفَقِيهُ أنبأ أَبُو حَامِدِ بْنُ بِلَالٍ الْبَزَّازُ ثنا عَبَّاسٌ الدُّورِيُّ ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ ثنا دَاوُدُ الْعَطَّارُ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ فَذَكَرَهُ بِنَحْوِهِ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ وَقَالَ الْمُسْتَحْجِمَ بَدَلَ الْمَحْجُومِ وَرَوَاهُ قَبِيصَةُ عَنْ فِطْرِ بْنِ خَلِيفَةَ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The one who performs Hijama and the one for whom it is performed both break their fast."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ كَذَا  

[Machine] I was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during the year of the conquest, and a man came by who had fasted eighteen or seventeen days of the month of Ramadan. He was feeling weak and exhausted. So, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "He breaks his fast and so does the one who compels [others to fast]."  

كُنْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ عَامَ الْفَتْحِ فَمَرَّ عَلَيَّ رَجُلٌ لِثَمَانِ عَشْرَةَ أَوْ لِسَبْعَ عَشْرَةَ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ يَحْتَجِمُ فَقَالَ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ  

[Machine] We were with the Prophet (PBUH) during the time of conquest when he saw a man who had shaved off only eighteen days from Ramadan. He said, while holding his hand, "This man has broken his fast, as well as the one who plucked his hair."  

كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ زَمَانَ الْفَتْحِ فَرَأَى رَجُلًا يَحْتَجِمُ لِثَمَانِ عَشْرَةَ خَلَتْ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ فَقَالَ وَهُوَ آخِذٌ بِيَدِي أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ  

[Machine] That Prophet ﷺ performed the hijama (cupping) while in a state of ihram and fasting. Al-Shafi'i and Ibn Abbas narrated from the Prophet ﷺ in the year of the conquest, and it was not a day of ihram then, nor was he accompanied by anyone in ihram who was not already in a state of ihram before the Hajj of Islam. Ibn Abbas mentioned the Prophet's ﷺ hijama in the year of the Hajj of Islam in the tenth year. The hadith of the hajjim and mahjum (cupper and the one who is cupped) fasting is from two years before the Hajj of Islam. If they are both proven, then the hadith of Ibn Abbas is abrogating, and the hadith of the hajjim and mahjum is abrogated. Al-Shafi'i said: The chain of narration for both hadiths combined is dubious, and the hadith of Ibn Abbas is the most similar to them in terms of chain of narration. If a person refrains from hijama, it is more preferable to me as a precautionary measure so that his fasting is not compromised and weakened, and in case he is cupped, the hijama should not break his fast. Along with the hadith of Ibn Abbas, there is the analogy that I memorized from some of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ and the tabi'in and most of the people of Madinah, which is that no one's fast is broken by hijama.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ احْتَجَمَ مُحْرِمًا صَائِمًا قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ وَسَمَاعُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عَامَ الْفَتْحِ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ يَوْمَئِذٍ مُحْرِمًا وَلَمْ يَصْحَبْهُ مُحْرِمًا قَبْلَ حَجَّةِ الْإِسْلَامِ فَذِكْرُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ حِجَامَةَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عَامَ حَجَّةِ الْإِسْلَامِ سَنَةَ عَشْرٍ وَحَدِيثُ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ سَنَةَ ثَمَانٍ قَبْلَ حَجَّةِ الْإِسْلَامِ بِسَنَتَيْنِ فَإِنْ كَانَا ثَابِتَينِ فَحَدِيثُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ نَاسِخٌ وَحَدِيثُ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ مَنْسُوخٌ قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ وَإِسْنَادُ الْحَدِيثَيْنِ مَعًا مُشْتَبَهٌ وَحَدِيثُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَمْثَلُهُمَا إِسْنَادًا فَإِنَ تَوَقَّى رَجُلٌ الْحِجَامَةَ كَانَ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ احْتِيَاطًا وَلِئَلَّا يُعَرِّضَ صَوْمَهُ أَنْ يَضْعُفَ فَيُفْطِرَ فَإِنِ احْتَجَمَ فَلَا تُفْطِرُهُ الْحِجَامَةُ وَمَعَ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ الْقِيَاسُ الَّذِي أَحْفَظُ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَالتَّابِعِينَ وَعَامَّةِ الْمَدَنِيِّينَ أَنَّهُ لَا يُفْطِرُ أَحَدٌ بِالْحِجَامَةِ  

[Machine] That Ja'far ibn Abi Talib decided to get cupped while he was fasting. The Prophet ﷺ passed by him and said, "Did these two break their fast?" Then the Prophet ﷺ allowed cupping for the one who is fasting. Anas used to get cupped while he was fasting. Ali ibn Umar ad-Daraqutni said, "All of them are trustworthy and I do not know of any reason [to prohibit cupping while fasting]." The scholar said, "The hadith of Abu Sa'eed al-Khudri, with the wording of permission, indicates this. Indeed, the majority is that permission [for cupping] comes after the prohibition. Allah knows best."  

أَنَّ جَعْفَرَ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ احْتَجَمَ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ فَمَرَّ بِهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَفْطَرَ هَذَانِ ثُمَّ رَخَّصَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بَعْدُ فِي الْحِجَامَةِ لِلصَّائِمِ وَكَانَ أَنَسٌ يَحْتَجِمُ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ قَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عُمَرَ الدَّارَقُطْنِيُّ كُلُّهُمْ ثِقَاتٌ وَلَا أَعْلَمُ لَهُ عِلَّةً قَالَ الشَّيْخُ وَحَدِيثُ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ بِلَفْظِ التَّرْخِيصِ يَدُلُّ عَلَى هَذَا فَإِنَّ الْأَغْلَبَ أَنَّ التَّرْخِيصَ يَكُونُ بَعْدَ النَّهْيِ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a man who was performing hijama (cupping) and he was lending money to someone. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Has the one performing hijama and the one having hijama done to him broken their fast?" His saying was in reference to the man lending money. I have not come across this except in this hadith, and others may add to it.  

مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِرَجُلٍ وَهُوَ يَحْتَجِمُ عِنْدَ الْحَجَّامِ وَهُوَ يُقْرِضُ رَجُلًا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَفْطَرَ الْحَاجِمُ وَالْمَحْجُومُ قَوْلُهُ يُقْرِضُ رَجُلًا لَمْ أَكْتُبْهُ إِلَّا فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ وَغَيْرُ يَزِيدَ  

[Machine] About something he mentioned or something he heard.  

عَنْ شَيْءٍ ذَكَرَهُ أَوْ شَيْءٍ سَمِعَهُ  

[Machine] He used to perform Itikaf during the month of Ramadan at the time of breaking the fast.  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَحْتَجِمُ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ عِنْدَ وَقْتِ الْفِطْرِ  

[Machine] She heard Umm Habibah, the wife of the Prophet, ﷺ , saying, "Chewing gum is not permissible for the fasting person." The Sheikh said, "His grandmother, Umm al-Rabee', narrated this hadith."  

أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ أُمَّ حَبِيبَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ تَقُولُ لَا يُمْضَغُ الْعِلْكُ لِلصَّائِمِ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ جَدَّتُهُ أُمُّ الرَّبِيعِ وَالْحَدِيثُ مَوْقُوفٌ  

[Machine] Ali said to Umar, "Oh Commander of the Believers, have you ordered the stoning of so-and-so?" Umar replied, "Yes." Ali then said, "Don't you remember the saying of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , 'The pen has been lifted from three: the sleeper until he wakes up, the child until he reaches puberty, and the insane until he regains sanity?'" Umar responded, "Yes." So he revoked the order.  

عَلِيٌّ بِمَجْنُونَةِ بَنِي فُلَانٍ قَدْ زَنَتْ وَهِيَ تُرْجَمُ فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ لِعُمَرَ ؓ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَمَرْتَ بِرَجْمِ فُلَانَةَ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ أَمَا تَذْكُرُ قَوْلَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ رُفِعَ الْقَلَمُ عَنْ ثَلَاثٍ عَنِ النَّائِمِ حَتَّى يَسْتَيْقِظَ وَعَنِ الصَّبِيِّ حَتَّى يَحْتَلِمَ وَعَنِ الْمَجْنُونِ حَتَّى يُفِيقَ ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَخَلَّى عَنْهَا  

[Machine] Abu Abdurrahman As-Sulami informed me that Abu Abdullah Al-Ukbari narrated to me that Abu Al-Qasim Al-Baghawi narrated to us, and he mentioned that Ibrahim Ibn Hanee, his maternal uncle, and others narrated to him that Muhammad Ibn Saeed Al-Asbahani narrated to them, and he mentioned that Ibrahim Ibn Al-Mukhtar Ar-Razi narrated to him from Muhammad Ibn Ishaq, who mentioned from Isa Ibn Abdullah, who mentioned from Sufyan Ibn Atiyah Ibn Rabeeah Ath-Thaqafi, that he said: "Our delegation arrived from Thaqeef to the Prophet ﷺ, so he built a dome for them and they embraced Islam in the middle of Ramadan. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ instructed them to fast for the remaining days of Ramadan and did not command them to make up for the days they missed."  

أَنْبَأَنِي أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيُّ إِجَازَةً أنبأ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْعُكْبُرِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ الْبَغَوِيُّ ثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ هَانِئٍ وَعَمِّي وَغَيْرُهُمَا قَالُوا ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ ثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُخْتَارِ الرَّازِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ الثَّقَفِيِّ قَالَ قَدِمَ وَفْدُنَا مِنْ ثَقِيفٍ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَضَرَبَ لَهُمْ قُبَّةً وَأَسْلَمُوا فِي النِّصْفِ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ فَأَمَرَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَامُوا مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَقْبَلُوا مِنْهُ وَلَمْ يَأْمُرْهُمْ بِقَضَاءِ مَا فَاتَهُمْ  

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Fasting is a shield, so when any one of you is fasting, let him neither indulge in obscene language nor raise his voice in anger. If someone attacks him or insults him, let him say, 'I am fasting.'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ الصِّيَامَ جُنَّةٌ فَإِذَا كَانَ أَحَدُكُمْ صَائِمًا فَلَا يَرْفُثْ وَلَا يَجْهَلْ فَإِنِ امْرُؤٌ قَاتَلَهُ أَوْ شَاتَمَهُ فَلْيَقُلْ إِنِّي صَائِمٌ  

Allah the Exalted and Majestic said: Every act of the son of Adam is for him, except fasting. It is (exclusively) meant for Me and I (alone) will reward it. Fasting is a shield. When any one of you is fasting on a day, he should neither indulge in obscene language, nor raise the voice; or if anyone reviles him or tries to quarrel with him he should say: I am a person fasting. By Him, in Whose Hand is the life of Muhammad, the breath of the observer of fast is sweeter to Allah on the Day of judgment than the fragrance of musk. The one who fasts has two (occasions) of joy, one when he breaks the fast he is glad with the breaking of (the fast) and one when he meets his Lord he is glad with his fast. (Using translation from Muslim 1151d)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ اللهُ ﷻ كُلُّ عَمَلِ ابْنِ آدَمَ لَهُ إِلَّا الصِّيَامَ فَإِنَّهُ لِي وَأَنَا أَجْزِي بِهِ الصَّوْمُ جُنَّةٌ فَإِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ صَوْمِ أَحَدِكُمْ فَلَا يَرْفُثْ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَلَا يَسْخَبْ فَإِنْ سَابَّهُ أَحَدٌ أَوْ قَاتَلَهُ فَلْيَقُلْ إِنِّي امْرُؤٌ صَائِمٌ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَخُلُوفُ فَمِ الصَّائِمِ أَطْيَبُ عِنْدَ اللهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مِنْ رِيحِ الْمِسْكِ وَلِلصَّائِمِ فَرْحَتَانِ يَفْرَحُ بِهِمَا إِذَا أَفْطَرَ فَرِحَ بِفِطْرِهِ وَإِذَا لَقِيَ رَبَّهُ فَرِحَ بِصَوْمِهِ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: If anyone does not abandon falsehood and action is accordance with it, Allah has no need that he should abandon his food and drink. The narrator Ahmad (b. Yunus) said: I learnt the chain of narrators from Ibn Abi Dhi'b, and a man by his side made me understand the tradition. I think he was his cousin. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2362)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ لَمْ يَدَعْ قَوْلَ الزُّورِ وَالْعَمَلَ بِهِ وَالْجَهْلَ فَلَيْسَ لِلَّهِ حَاجَةٌ أَنْ يَدَعَ طَعَامَهُ وَشَرَابَهُ قَالَ أَحْمَدُ فَهِمْتُ إِسْنَادَهُ مِنِ ابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ وَأَفْهَمَنِي الْحَدِيثَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى جَنْبِهِ أَرَاهُ ابْنَ أَخِيهِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Fasting is not just refraining from eating and drinking, but it is also refraining from vain talk and indecent behavior. If someone insults or attacks you, or acts ignorantly towards you, then say, 'I am fasting.'"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْسَ الصِّيَامُ مِنَ الْأَكْلِ وَالشُّرْبِ فَقَطْ إِنَّمَا الصِّيَامُ مِنَ اللَّغْوِ وَالرَّفَثِ فَإِنْ سَابَّكَ أَحَدٌ أَوْ جَهِلَ عَلَيْكَ فَقُلْ إِنِّي صَائِمٌ  

[Machine] He heard the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , say: "Many are those who stand for prayer, but their share of standing is sleeplessness, and many are those who fast, but their share of fasting is hunger and thirst."  

أَنَّهُ سَمَعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ رُبَّ قَائِمٍ حَظُّهُ مِنْ قِيَامِهِ السَّهَرُ وَرُبَّ صَائِمٍ حَظُّهُ مِنْ صِيَامِهِ الْجُوعُ وَالْعَطَشُ  

"I heard the Messenger of Allah say: 'Fasting is a shield, so long as you do not damage it."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2233)   

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ الصَّوْمُ جُنَّةٌ مَا لَمْ تَخْرِقْهُ  

[Machine] To fast and feed a poor person in place of every day, as mentioned in the saying of San'an bin Sa'd.  

أَنْ يَصُومَا فَيُطْعِمَا مَكَانَ كُلِّ يَوْمٍ مِسْكِينًا لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ الصَّنْعَانِيِّ  

[Machine] In his statement and concerning those who are encircled by him, meaning those who imitate him and are unable to do so, it is not permissible for the food of a poor person. So whoever volunteers good, let him feed another poor person, and that is better for him and it is not abrogated. Ibn Abbas said, and it was only allowed in this case for the elderly who cannot bear fasting and for the sick who know that they will not be cured.  

فِي قَوْلِهِ وَعَلَى الَّذِينَ يُطَوَّقُونَهُ يَعْنِي يَتَكَلَّفُونَهُ وَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَهُ طَعَامُ مِسْكِينٍ فَمَنْ تَطَوَّعَ خَيْرًا فَأَطْعَمَ مِسْكِينًا آخَرَ فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَهُ وَلَيْسَتْ مَنْسُوخَةً قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَلَمْ يُرَخَّصْ فِي هَذَا إِلَّا لِلشَّيْخِ الْكَبِيرِ الَّذِي لَا يُطِيقُ الصِّيَامَ وَالْمَرِيضِ الَّذِي عَلِمَ أَنَّهُ لَا يُشْفَى  

[Machine] He is the elderly sheikh who cannot fast, so he breaks his fast and feeds half a saa' of wheat for each day, as mentioned in this narration. It is also narrated from him that he said, "Extend for his food and extend for his sustenance."  

هُوَ الشَّيْخُ الْكَبِيرُ الَّذِي لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ الصِّيَامَ فَيُفْطِرُ وَيُطْعِمُ نِصْفَ صَاعٍ مِنْ حِنْطَةٍ مَكَانَ يَوْمٍ كَذَا فِي هَذِهِ الرِّوَايَةِ نِصْفُ صَاعٍ مِنْ حِنْطَةٍ وَرُوِيَ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ مُدًّا لِطَعَامِهِ وَمُدًا لِإِدَامِهِ  

[Machine] Every day a poor person should not be neglected or abandoned.  

عَنْ كُلِّ يَوْمٍ مِسْكِينًا وَلَا قَضَاءَ عَلَيْهِ  

[Machine] "He heard Abu Hurairah say that whoever experiences old age and is unable to fast during the month of Ramadan, then they must feed a poor person for each missed day, with a measure of wheat."  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ مَنْ أَدْرَكَهُ الْكِبَرُ فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ صِيَامَ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فَعَلَيْهِ لِكُلِّ يَوْمٍ مُدٌّ مِنْ قَمْحٍ  

[Machine] Anas reported that a year before his death, the Prophet ﷺ had become weak and broke his fast. He then instructed his family to feed a poor person in place of every missed day. Hisham, in his narration, said that the Prophet ﷺ fed thirty poor individuals.  

أَنَّ أَنَسًا ؓ ضَعُفَ عَامًا قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ فَأَفْطَرَ وَأَمَرَ أَهْلَهُ أَنْ يُطْعِمُوا مَكَانَ كُلِّ يَوْمٍ مِسْكِينًا قَالَ هِشَامٌ فِي حَدِيثِهِ فَأَطْعَمَ ثَلَاثِينَ مِسْكِينًا  

[Machine] We prepared for him loaves of bread and meat, so we fed him the exact amount or even more, meaning thirty men per day.  

جَفَنَّا لَهُ جِفَانًا مِنْ خُبْزٍ وَلَحْمٍ فَأَطْعَمْنَا الْعِدَّةَ أَوْ أَكْثَرَ يَعْنِي مِنْ ثَلَاثِينَ رَجُلًا لِكُلِّ يَوْمٍ رَجُلًا  

[Machine] "To feed a poor person every day, so feed two poor people on my behalf."  

أَنْ يُطْعَمَ عَنْهُ لِكُلِّ يَوْمٍ مِسْكِينٌ فَأَطْعِمُوا عَنِّي مِسْكِينَيْنِ  

[Machine] "In his statement, {and upon those who are able to do so is a ransom of feeding a needy person} [Surah Al-Baqarah 184]. He said that it refers to the elderly who are unable to fast and pregnant women who experience difficulty in fasting. For them, they are to feed a needy person for every day of Ramadan until the end of the month."  

فِي قَوْلِهِ {وَعَلَى الَّذِينَ يُطِيقُونَهُ فِدْيَةٌ طَعَامُ مِسْكِينٍ} [البقرة 184] قَالَ هُوَ الْكَبِيرُ الَّذِي كَانَ يَصُومُ فَيَعْجِزُ وَالْمَرْأَةُ الْحُبْلَى يَشُقُّ عَلَيْهَا فَعَلَيْهِمَا طَعَامُ مِسْكِينٍ لِكُلِّ يَوْمٍ حَتَّى يَنْقَضِيَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ  

[Machine] Amr, who was a mawla (freed slave) of Aisha, used to read, and those who were surrounding him had to pay a ransom.  

عَمْرٍو مَوْلًى لِعَائِشَةَ ؓ كَانَتْ تَقْرَأُ وَعَلَى الَّذِينَ يُطَوَّقُونَهُ فِدْيَةٌ  

[Machine] I cannot estimate or count how many times I have seen the Prophet of Allah ﷺ performing miswak while fasting.  

مَا أُحْصِي وَلَا أَعُدُّ مَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَتَسَوَّكُ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The best qualities of the fasting person are using the Siwak (toothstick) and being consistent in its use. There is nothing more effective and restraining than it, and Aasim bin 'Ubaydullah is not strong in physique, and Allah knows best. As for the hadith that..."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَيْرُ خِصَالِ الصَّائِمِ السِّوَاكُ مُجَالِدٌ غَيْرُهُ أَثْبَتُ مِنْهُ وَعَاصِمُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ لَيْسَ بِالْقَوِيِّ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ وَأَمَّا الْحَدِيثُ الَّذِي  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "This hadith is narrated exclusively by Abu Ishaq Ibrahim ibn Baytar, also known as Ibrahim ibn Abdul Rahman Qadi Khwarazm. He narrated it in Balkh from Aasim al-Ahwal al-Manakir. It cannot be relied upon, as it has been reported from him in another way that does not mention the beginning or end of the day."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَهَذَا يَنْفَرِدُ بِهِ أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ بَيْطَارٍ وَيُقَالُ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَاضِي خُوَارَزْمَ حَدَّثَ بِبَلْخٍ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ الْأَحْوَلِ بِالْمَنَاكِيرِ لَا يُحْتَجُّ بِهِ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْهُ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ لَيْسَ فِيهِ ذِكْرُ أَوَّلِ النَّهَارِ وَآخِرِهِ  

[Machine] About the Prophet ﷺ , Abu Ahmad Ibrahim said that his general hadiths are not preserved.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ هَذَا عَامَّةُ أَحَادِيثِهِ غَيْرُ مَحْفُوظَةٍ  

[Machine] I have never seen anyone more disciplined than you while fasting than you in the years I have known you," he said with a dry stick in his hand.  

مَا رَأَيْتُ أَحَدًا أَدْأَبَ سِوَاكًا وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ مِنْ عُمَرَ أَرَاهُ قَالَ بِعُودٍ قَدْ ذَوِيَ قَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدٍ يَعْنِي يَبِسَ  

[Machine] That he used to joke while fasting.  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَسْتَاكُ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ
