١٣۔٢٦ باب قَضَاءِ رَمَضَانَ فِي شَعْبَانَ

muslim:1146aAḥmad b. ʿAbdullāh b. Yūnus > Zuhayr > Yaḥyá b. Saʿīd > Abū Salamah > ʿĀʾishah

I heard 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) as saying: I had to complete some of the fasts of Ramadan, but I could not do it but during the month of Sha'ban due to my duties to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ or with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.  

مسلم:١١٤٦aحَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يُونُسَ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَائِشَةَ ؓ تَقُولُ

كَانَ يَكُونُ عَلَىَّ الصَّوْمُ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ فَمَا أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أَقْضِيَهُ إِلاَّ فِي شَعْبَانَ الشُّغُلُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَوْ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ  

muslim:1146bIsḥāq b. Ibrāhīm > Bishr b. ʿUmar al-Zahrānī > Sulaymān b. Bilāl > Yaḥyá b. Saʿīd Bihadhā al-Isnād Ghayr

This hadith is narrated on the authority of Yahya b. Sa'id with the same chain of transmitters but with this variation that he said that ('A'isha did not observe fast but in Sha'ban) out of regard for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.  

مسلم:١١٤٦bوَحَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَخْبَرَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الزَّهْرَانِيُّ حَدَّثَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ بِلاَلٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ غَيْرَ

أَنَّهُ قَالَ وَذَلِكَ لِمَكَانِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ  

muslim:1146cʿAbd al-Razzāq > Ibn Jurayj > Yaḥyá b. Saʿīd Bihadhā al-Isnād > Faẓanant

" Yahya said: I think it was due to the regard for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ."  

مسلم:١١٤٦cوَحَدَّثَنِيهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَقَالَ فَظَنَنْتُ

أَنَّ ذَلِكَ لِمَكَانِهَا مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَحْيَى يَقُولُهُ  

muslim:1146d[Chain 1] Muḥammad b. al-Muthanná > ʿAbd al-Wahhāb [Chain 2] ʿAmr al-Nāqid > Sufyān

This hadith is reported on the authority of Yahya with the same chain of transmitters but no mention is made of the duty to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.  

مسلم:١١٤٦dوَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا عَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ كِلاَهُمَا

عَنْ يَحْيَى بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرَا فِي الْحَدِيثِ الشُّغْلُ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ  

muslim:1146eMuḥammad b. Abū ʿUmar al-Makkī > ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz b. Muḥammad al-Darāwardī > Yazīd b. ʿAbdullāh b. al-Hād > Muḥammad b. Ibrāhīm > Abū Salamah b. ʿAbd al-Raḥman > ʿĀʾishah

If one amongst us had to break fasts (of Ramadan due to natural reasons, i. e. menses) during the life of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ she could not find it possible to complete them so long she had been in the presence of Messenger of Allah ﷺ till Sha'ban commenced.  

مسلم:١١٤٦eوَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ الْمَكِّيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الدَّرَاوَرْدِيُّ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْهَادِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ

أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ إِنْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَانَا لَتُفْطِرُ فِي زَمَانِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَمَا تَقْدِرُ عَلَى أَنْ تَقْضِيَهُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ شَعْبَانُ
