وَاصَلَ فَوَاصَلَ نَاسٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم لَوْ مُدَّ لِي الشَّهْرُ لَوَاصَلْتُ وِصَالا يَدَعُ الْمُتَعَمِّقُونَ تَعَمُّقَهُمْ إِنِّي لَسْتُ مثلكم إني أظل يطعمني ربي ويسقيني

Collected by Bukhārī, Muslim, Aḥmad, Ibn Ḥibbān, Bayhaqī, Bazzār, SuyūṭīThe Prophet ﷺ fasted Al-Wisal on the last days of the month. Some people did the same, and when the news reached the Prophet ﷺ he said, "If the month had been prolonged for me, then I would have fasted Wisal for such a long time that the most exaggerating ones among you would have given up their exaggeration. I am not like you; my Lord always makes me eat and drink."
وَاصَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ آخِرَ الشَّهْرِ وَوَاصَلَ أُنَاسٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ فَبَلَغَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَوْ مُدَّ بِيَ الشَّهْرُ لَوَاصَلْتُ وِصَالاً يَدَعُ الْمُتَعَمِّقُونَ تَعَمُّقَهُمْ إِنِّي لَسْتُ مِثْلَكُمْ إِنِّي أَظَلُّ يُطْعِمُنِي رَبِّي وَيَسْقِينِ
Had the month been lengthened for me I would have continued observing Saum Wisal, so that those who act with forced hardness would (have been obliged) to abandon it. You are not like me (or he said): I am not like you. I continue to do so (in a state) that my Lord feeds me and provides me drink.
وَاصَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي أَوَّلِ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فَوَاصَلَ نَاسٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَبَلَغَهُ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَوْ مُدَّ لَنَا الشَّهْرُ لَوَاصَلْنَا وِصَالاً يَدَعُ الْمُتَعَمِّقُونَ تَعَمُّقَهُمْ إِنَّكُمْ لَسْتُمْ مِثْلِي أَوْ قَالَ إِنِّي لَسْتُ مِثْلَكُمْ إِنِّي أَظَلُّ يُطْعِمُنِي رَبِّي وَيَسْقِينِي

وَاصَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ آخِرَ الشَّهْرِ وَوَاصَلَ نَاسٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَوْ مُدَّ لَنَا الشَّهْرُ لَوَاصَلْتُ وِصَالًا يَدَعُ الْمُتَعَمِّقُونَ تَعَمُّقَهُمْ إِنِّي لَسْتُ مِثْلَكُمْ إِنِّي أَظَلُّ يُطْعِمُنِي رَبِّي وَيَسْقِينِي
[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed the 'itikaf (retreat) during the last ten days of the month. Some people then also performed 'itikaf. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to know about this, he said, 'If I were to stay in retreat for more days, I would have continued my retreat that those deeply engrossed in worship may have left their deep focus. Indeed, I am not like you. Verily, my Lord sustains and feeds me and quenches my thirst.'
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَاصَلَ فِي آخِرِ الشَّهْرِ فَوَاصَلَ نَاسٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَوْ مُدَّ لَنَا الشَّهْرُ لَوَاصَلْتُ وِصَالًا يَدَعُ الْمُتَعَمِّقُونَ تَعَمُّقَهُمْ إِنِّي لَسْتُ مِثْلَكُمْ إِنِّي أَبِيتُ يُطْعِمُنِي رَبِّي وَيَسْقِينِي
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ continued to fast in Ramadan, and some of his companions also continued to fast. When the Prophet ﷺ was informed about this, he said, "If the month was extended for me, I would continue to fast, leaving behind those who excessively immerse themselves in worship. Surely, my Lord provides me with sustenance and quenches my thirst."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَاصَلَ فِي رَمَضَانَفَوَاصَلَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَأُخْبِرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِذَلِكَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَوْ مُدَّ لِي الشَّهْرُ لَوَاصَلْتُ وِصَالًا يَدَعُ الْمُتَعَمِّقُونَ تَعَمُّقَهُمْ إِنِّي أَظَلُّ يُطْعِمُنِي رَبِّي وَيَسْقِينِي
ذِكْرُ مَا خَصَّ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا صَفِيَّهُ ﷺ عِنْدَ الْوِصَالِ بِالسَّقْيِ وَالْإِطْعَامِ دُونَ أُمَّتِهِ
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ observed I'tikaf in Ramadan and some of his companions also observed I'tikaf. He said, "If the month were extended for me, I would continue to observe I'tikaf, which the deeply immersed in worship abandon. Indeed, my Lord provides me with food and drink."
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَاصَلَ فِي رَمَضَانَ فَوَاصَلَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ «لَوْ مُدَّ لِيَ الشَّهْرُ لَوَاصَلْتُ وِصَالًا يَدَعُ الْمُتَعَمِّقُونَ تَعَمُّقَهُمْ إِنِّي أَظَلُّ يُطْعِمُنِي رَبِّي وَيَسْقِينِي»
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ continued his fast until the end of the month, and the people also continued their fast. When the Prophet ﷺ heard about this, he said, "If the month was extended for us, I would have continued fasting, leaving those who delve deep in worship amazed. You are not like me, for I am being fed and given drink by my Lord."

اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم وَاصَلَ فَوَاصَلَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ لَوْ مُدَّ لِي الشَّهْرُ لَوَاصَلْتُ وِصَالا يَدَعُ الْمُتَعَمِّقُونَ تَعَمُّقَهُمْ إِنِّي أَظَلُّ يُطْعِمُنِي رَبِّي وَيَسْقِينِي
"مَا بَالُ رِجَالٍ يُواصِلُونَ، إِنَّكُمْ لَسْتمْ مِثْلِى أمَّا وَاللهِ لَوْ مُدَّ لِي الشَّهْرُ لَوَاصَلتُ وصَالًا يَدَعُ الْمُتَعَمِّقُونَ تَعُمَّقَهُم".
