“The cavalry of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ attacked us, so I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was eating a meal. He said: ‘Come and eat.’ I said: ‘I am fasting.’ He said: ‘Sit down and I will tell you about fasting. Allah has relieved the traveler of half of the prayer, and He has relieved the traveler, the pregnant, and the nursing mothers of the duty to fast.’ By Allah, the Prophet ﷺ said them, both, or one of them, and now I feel so disappointed that I had not eaten of the food of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.”

A man from Banu Abdullah ibn Ka'b brethren of Banu Qushayr (not Anas ibn Malik, the well-known Companion), said: A contingent from the cavalry of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raided us. I reached (for he said went) to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who was taking his meals. He said: Sit down, and take some from this meal of ours. I said: I am fasting, he said: Sit down, I shall tell you about prayer and fasting. Allah has remitted half the prayer to a traveller, and fasting to the traveller, the woman who is suckling an infant and the woman who is pregnant, I swear by Allah, he mentioned both (i.e. suckling and pregnant women) or one of them. I was grieved for not taking the food of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.

"Some cavalry man of the Messenger of Allah came galloping upon us, so I came to the Messenger of Allah and found him having lunch. He said: "Come and eat." I said: 'I am fasting.' So he said: 'Come and I will narrate to you about the fast - or fasting. Indeed Allah Most High lifted (the fast and) half of the Salat from the traveler, and (He lifted) the fast - or fasting - from the pregnant person, or the breast-feeding person.' And by Allah! The Prophet said both of them or one of them. So woe to me! For I did not eat from the meal of the Prophet."

[Machine] The cavalry of the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , became jealous of us, so I went to him and found him eating. He said, "Come, eat." I said, "I am fasting." He said, "Sit down, let me tell you about fasting." Allah has exempted the traveler from half of the prayer, and the traveler, the pregnant woman, and the nursing mother from fasting. By Allah, the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said both of these things or one of them. Oh, how I long for myself if I did not taste food from the food of the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ ." And a man from the Banu Abd Allah bin Ka'b, the brothers of Banu Qushair, said something.
