12. Book of Fasting
١٢۔ كِتَابُ الصَّوْمِ
Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The people will remain on the right path as long as they hasten the breaking of the fast." (Using translation from Bukhārī 1957)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا يَزَالُ النَّاسُ بِخَيْرٍ مَا عَجَّلُوا الْفِطْرَ»
ذِكْرُ الْعِلَّةِ الَّتِي مِنْ أَجَلِهَا يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلصُّوَّامِ تَعْجِيلُ الْإِفْطَارِ
The Prophet ﷺ said: Religion will continue to prevail as long as people hasten to break the fast, because the Jews and the Christians delay doing so. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2353)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا يَزَالُ الدِّينُ ظَاهِرًا مَا عَجَّلَ النَّاسُ الْفِطْرَ إِنَّ الْيَهُودَ وَالنَّصَارَى يُؤَخِّرُونَ»
ذِكْرُ الِاسْتِحْبَابِ لِلصُّوَّامِ تَعْجِيلُ الْإِفْطَارِ قَبْلَ صَلَاةِ الْمَغْرِبِ
[Machine] "I never saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray the Maghrib prayer until he broke his fast, even if it was just with a sip of water."
«مَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَطُّ صَلَّى صَلَاةَ الْمَغْرِبِ حَتَّى يُفْطِرَ وَلَوْ عَلَى شَرْبَةٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ»
ذِكْرُ مَا يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلْمَرْءِ لُزُومُ التَّعْجِيلِ لِلْإِفْطَارِ، وَلَوْ قَبْلَ صَلَاةِ الْمَغْرِبِ
[Machine] I have never seen the Prophet ﷺ pray the Maghrib prayer until he breaks his fast, even if it is with a sip of water.
«مَا رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَطُّ صَلَّى الْمَغْرِبَ حَتَّى يُفْطِرَ وَلَوْ عَلَى شَرْبَةٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ»
ذِكْرُ إِثْبَاتِ الْخَيْرِ بِالنَّاسِ مَا دَامُوا يُعَجِّلُونَ الْفِطْرَ
Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The people will remain on the right path as long as they hasten the breaking of the fast." (Using translation from Bukhārī 1957)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا يَزَالُ النَّاسُ بِخَيْرٍ مَا عَجَّلُوا الْفِطْرَ»
ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ مِنْ أَحَبِّ الْعِبَادِ إِلَى اللَّهِ مَنْ كَانَ أَعْجَلَ إِفْطَارًا
the Messenger of Allah said: "Allah, Mighty and Sublime is He, said: 'Those of My worshippers who are most beloved to me are the quickest to break their fast.'" (Using translation from Tirmidhī 700)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى أَحَبُّ عِبَادِي إِلَيَّ أَعْجَلُهُمْ فِطْرًا»
ذِكْرُ مَا يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلصَّائِمِ التَّعْجِيلُ لِلْإِفْطَارِ ضِدَّ قَوْلِ مَنْ أَمَرَ بِتَأْخِيرِهِ
the Messenger of Allah said: "Allah, Mighty and Sublime is He, said: 'Those of My worshippers who are most beloved to me are the quickest to break their fast.'" (Using translation from Tirmidhī 700)
عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «قَالَ الْغَنِيُّ جَلَّ وَعَلَا أَحَبُّ عِبَادِي إِلَيَّ أَعْجَلُهُمْ فِطْرًا»
ذِكْرُ الْعِلَّةِ الَّتِي مِنْ أَجْلِهَا كَانَ يُحِبُّ ﷺ تَعْجِيلَ الْإِفْطَارِ
The Prophet ﷺ said: Religion will continue to prevail as long as people hasten to break the fast, because the Jews and the Christians delay doing so. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2353)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا يَزَالُ الدِّينُ ظَاهِرًا مَا عَجَّلَ النَّاسُ الْفِطْرَ إِنَّ الْيَهُودَ وَالنَّصَارَى يُؤَخِّرُونَ»
ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الْمُدْحِضِ قَوْلَ مَنْ أَبْطَلَ مُرَاعَاةَ الْأَوْقَاتِ لِأَدَاءِ الطَّاعَاتِ بِالْحِيَلِ وَالْأَسْبَابِ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "My Ummah (community of believers) will continue to be on my Sunnah (way, practice) as long as they do not break their fast before the stars appear." He also commanded a person to fulfill a task while he was fasting, and when that person said, "The sun has set," he broke his fast.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا تَزَالُ أُمَّتِي عَلَى سُنَّتِي مَا لَمْ تَنْتَظِرْ بِفِطْرِهَا النُّجُومَ» قَالَ وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا كَانَ صَائِمًا أَمَرَ رَجُلًا فَأَوْفَى عَلَى شَيْءٍ * فَإِذَا قَالَ «غَابَتِ الشَّمْسُ» أَفْطَرَ
ذِكْرُ الْإِبَاحَةِ لِلْمَرْءِ التَّكَلُّفَ لِإِفْطَارِهِ إِذَا كَانَ صَائِمًا
[Machine] While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was walking while fasting, he said to one of his companions, "Go and prepare some food." The companion replied, "O Messenger of Allah, if you wish, I can prepare it for you." The Prophet said, "No, go and prepare it for me." So, the companion went and prepared some food and the Prophet drank it. Then he said, "When you see the night coming from this direction (pointing towards the east), the fasting person should break their fast."
بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَسِيرُ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ إِذْ قَالَ لِبَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ «انْزِلْ فَاجْدَحْ» فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوْ أَمْسَيْتَ قَالَ «انْزِلْ فَاجْدَحْ لِي» قَالَ فَنَزَلَ فَجَدَحَ لَهُ فَشَرِبَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «إِذَا رَأَيْتُمُ اللَّيْلَ قَدْ أَقْبَلَ مِنْ هَاهُنَا فَقَدْ أَفْطَرَ الصَّائِمُ» يَعْنِي مِنْ قِبَلِ الْمَشْرِقِ
ذِكْرُ الْوَقْتِ الَّذِي يَحِلُّ فِيهِ الْإِفْطَارُ لِلصُّوَّامِ
[Machine] Abdullah Ibn Abi Awfa heard the Prophet ﷺ say, "We were on a journey with the Prophet ﷺ when he said to a man, 'Go down and bring some water for us.' The man said, 'The sun, O Messenger of Allah.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Go down and bring some water for us.' The man said, 'The sun, O Messenger of Allah.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Go down and bring some water for us.' So, the man went down and brought some water and drank. Then he said, 'When you see that the night has come from here (one side) and the day has gone from here (the other side), then the fasting person should break his fast.'"
سَمِعَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى يَقُولُ كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ فَقَالَ لِرَجُلٍ «انْزِلْ فَاجْدَحْ لَنَا» قَالَ الشَّمْسُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «انْزِلْ فَاجْدَحْ لَنَا» قَالَ الشَّمْسُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «انْزِلْ فَاجْدَحْ لَنَا» فَنَزَلَ فَجَدَحَ فَشَرِبَ فَقَالَ «إِذَا رَأَيْتُمُ اللَّيْلَ قَدْ أَقْبَلَ مِنْ هَاهُنَا وَأَدْبَرَ النَّهَارُ مِنْ هَاهُنَا فَقَدْ أَفْطَرَ الصَّائِمُ»
ذِكْرُ الْإِخْبَارِ بِأَنَّ عَيْنَ الشَّمْسِ إِذَا سَقَطَتْ حُلَّ لِلصَّائِمِ الْإِفْطَارُ
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:“When night comes and day departs, and the sun sets, then (it is time to) break your fast.ʿ (Using translation from Aḥmad 231)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا أَقْبَلَ اللَّيْلُ وَأَدْبَرَ النَّهَارُ وَغَابَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَقَدْ أَفْطَرَ الصَّائِمُ»
ذِكْرُ الْإِخْبَارِ عَمَّا يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلصَّائِمِ الْإِفْطَارُ عَلَيْهِ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever finds dates should break his fast with them, and whoever does not find them should break his fast with water, for it is pure."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ وَجَدَ تَمْرًا فَلْيُفْطِرْ عَلَيْهِ وَمَنْ لَا يَجِدُ فَلْيُفْطِرْ عَلَى الْمَاءِ فَإِنَّهُ طَهُورٌ»
ذِكْرُ الِاسْتِحْبَابِ لِلْمَرْءِ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِفْطَارُهُ عَلَى التَّمْرِ أَوْ عَلَى الْمَاءِ عِنْدَ عَدَمِهِ
"When any one of you breaks his fast, let him break it with dates. If he cannot find dates, then let him break it with water, for it is a means of purification." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1699)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا أَفْطَرَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيُفْطِرْ عَلَى تَمْرٍ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ فَلْيَحْسُ حَسْوَةً مِنْ مَاءٍ»
