4. Book of Fasting
٤۔ كِتَابُ الصَّوْمِ
"I came to the Messenger of Allah from a journey and greeted him with Salam. When I was going to leave he said: 'Stay and have meal for breakfast, O Abu Umayyah.' I said: 'I am fasting, O Prophet of Allah.' He said: 'Come and I will tell about the traveler. Allah, most high, has waived fasting and of the prayer for him."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2269)
قَدِمْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنْ سَفَرٍ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا ذَهَبْتُ لِأَخْرُجَ قَالَ «انْتَظِرِ الْغَدَاءَ يَا أَبَا أُمَيَّةَ» قَالَ فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي صَائِمٌ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ «تَعَالَ أُخْبِرْكَ عَنِ الْمُسَافِرِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَضَعَ عَنْهُ الصِّيَامَ وَنِصْفَ الصَّلَاةِ» قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّد «إِنْ شَاءَ صَامَ وَإِنْ شَاءَ أَفْطَرَ»
