Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'n Nadr, the mawla of Umar ibn Ubaydullah, from Umayr, the mawla of Abdullah ibn Abbas, from Umm al-Fadl bint al-Harith, that she was present when some people were arguing on the day of Arafa about whether the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was fasting or not. Some of them said he was fasting, and some of them said he was not. So she sent a bowl of milk to him while his camel was standing still and he drank.  

مالك:٢٠-١٣٦ – حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنْ أَبِي النَّضْرِ مَوْلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ عُمَيْرٍ مَوْلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ أُمِّ الْفَضْلِ بِنْتِ الْحَارِثِ

أَنَّ نَاسًا تَمَارَوْا عِنْدَهَا يَوْمَ عَرَفَةَ فِي صِيَامِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ هُوَ صَائِمٌ وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لَيْسَ بِصَائِمٍ فَأَرْسَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ بِقَدَحِ لَبَنٍ وَهُوَ وَاقِفٌ عَلَى بَعِيرِهِ فَشَرِبَ

On the day of 'Arafah some people near her argued whether the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was fasting, some saying that he was, and others saying that he was not. I, therefore, sent him a cup of milk while he was observing the halt at 'Arafah on his camel, and he drank it.

[Machine] Some people disagreed about the state of fasting of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ on the day of Arafah. Some said he was fasting, while others said he was not fasting. So, they sent a container of milk to him while he was standing on his camel at Arafah, and he drank from it. The wording of the hadith is: "Qa'na bi qadahin min labanin" which means "He drank from a container of milk" in the narration of al-Qa'nabiyy and "Tamaraw" in the narration of Rawh. And he drank from it while he was delivering a sermon to the people at Arafah.
