“We ate Suhur with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ then we got up to perform prayer.” I said: “How long was there between the two?” He said: “As long as it takes to recite fifty verses.”  

ابن ماجة:١٦٩٤حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ هِشَامٍ الدَّسْتَوَائِيِّ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ قَالَ

تَسَحَّرْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قُمْنَا إِلَى الصَّلاَةِ قُلْتُ كَمْ بَيْنَهُمَا؟ قَالَ قَدْرُ قِرَاءَةِ خَمْسِينَ آيَةً

“I ate Suhur with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when it was daybreak but the sun had not yet risen.” [(One of the narrators) Abu Ishaq said: “The Hadith of Hudhaifah is abrogated and does not mean anything.”]  

ابن ماجة:١٦٩٥حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ زِرٍّ عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ قَالَ

تَسَحَّرْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ هُوَ النَّهَارُ إِلاَّ أَنَّ الشَّمْسَ لَمْ تَطْلُعْ [ قالَ ابُو إسحاق حديث حُذَيْفَةَ مَنْسوخٌ لَيْسَ بشَيْء]  

ibnmajah:1696Yaḥyá b. Ḥakīm > Yaḥyá b. Saʿīd And Ibn Abū ʿAdī > Sulaymān al-Taymī > Abū ʿUthmān al-Nahdī > ʿAbdullāh b. Masʿūd

“The Adhan of Bilal should not prevent anyone of you from eating Suhur, for he gives the Adhan to alert those among you who are asleep, and so that anyone who is praying can prepare himself for fasting. The Fajr does not come in this manner, rather it comes in this manner, and it appears along the horizon.”  

ابن ماجة:١٦٩٦حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَكِيمٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ التَّيْمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لاَ يَمْنَعَنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ أَذَانُ بِلاَلٍ مِنْ سُحُورِهِ فَإِنَّهُ يُؤَذِّنُ لِيَنْتَبِهَ نَائِمُكُمْ وَلِيَرْجِعَ قَائِمُكُمْ وَلَيْسَ الْفَجْرُ أَنْ يَقُولَ هَكَذَا وَلَكِنْ هَكَذَا يَعْتَرِضُ فِي أُفُقِ السَّمَاءِ
