[AI] I left with Masrooq to the mother of the believers, and we asked, "Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ engage in intercourse while fasting?" She said, "Yes, he used to do so, but he had more self-control than you."
انْطَلَقْتُ أَنَا وَمَسْرُوقٌ إِلَى أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَقُلْنَا أَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُبَاشِرُ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ؟ قَالَتْ «قَدْ كَانَ يَفْعَلُ وَلَكِنَّهُ أَمْلَكُ لِإِرْبِهِ مِنْكُمْ»
I and Masruq went to 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) and asked. her if the Messenger of Allah ﷺ embraced (his wives) while fasting. She said: Yes; but he had the greatest control over his desire among you: or he was one of those who had control over his desire.
انْطَلَقْتُ أَنَا وَمَسْرُوقٌ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ ؓ فَقُلْنَا لَهَا أَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُبَاشِرُ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ وَلَكِنَّهُ كَانَ أَمْلَكَكُمْ لإِرْبِهِ أَوْ مِنْ أَمْلَكِكُمْ لإِرْبِهِ شَكَّ أَبُو عَاصِمٍ
“Al-Aswad and Masruq entered upon ‘Aishah and said: ‘Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ touch (his wife) when he was fasting?’ She said: ‘He used to do that, and he was the strongest of all of you in controlling his desire.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1687)
دَخَلْتُ أَنَا وَمَسْرُوقٌ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ فَقُلْنَا أَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُبَاشِرُ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ؟ قَالَتْ «كَانَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ وَلَكِنْ كَانَ أَمْلَكَ لِإِرْبِهِ مِنْكُمْ»
[AI] We asked, "Did the Prophet ﷺ have sexual relations while he was fasting?" She said, "He indeed used to do that, but he had more self-control than any of you."
قُلْنَا أَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُبَاشِرُ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ؟ قَالَتْ «قَدْ كَانَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ وَلَكِنَّهُ كَانَ أَمْلَكَ لِإِرْبِهِ مِنْكُمْ»
[AI] I asked Aisha, "Did the Prophet ﷺ have sexual relations while fasting?" She replied, "He used to do that, but he had more control over his desires than any of you."
سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ أَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُبَاشِرُ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ؟ قَالَتْ «قَدْ كَانَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ وَلَكِنَّهُ كَانَ أَمْلَكَ لِإِرْبِهِ مِنْكُمْ»
