23. Chapter of Kāf (Male)
٢٣۔ بَابُ الْكَافِ
[Machine] "I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and stayed with him. Then I left and later came back to him. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, do you not recognize me?' He said, 'No.' I said, 'I am the one who was with you a year ago.' He said, 'What has changed you after me?' I said, 'I have not eaten during the daylight hours since I left you.' He said, 'Whoever instructs you to torture yourself, then fast for one day per cushion.' I said, 'Increase it for me.' And he increased it for me until he said, 'Fast for three days per month.'"
قَدِمْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَقَمْتُ عِنْدَهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجْتُ عَنْهُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ بَعْدَ حَوْلٍ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَمَا تَعْرِفُنِي؟ قَالَ «لَا» قُلْتُ أَنَا الَّذِي كُنْتُ عِنْدَكَ عَامَ أَوَّلٍ قَالَ «فَمَا غَيَّرَكَ بَعْدِي؟» قَالَ مَا أَكَلْتُ طَعَامًا بِنَهَارٍ مُنْذُ فَارَقْتُكَ قَالَ «فَمَنْ أَمَرَكَ بِتَعْذِيبِ نَفْسِكَ صُمْ يَوْمًا مِنَ السُّرُرِ» قُلْتُ زِدْنِي فَزَادَنِي حَتَّى قَالَ «صُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ»
[Machine] "I saw the Prophet ﷺ leaving the kitchen area until he reached the well of prayer while wearing a wrapped garment around him. He then prayed two units of Dhuhr or Asr prayer and parted his hair in the middle."
«رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ خَرَجَ مِنْ شِعْبِ الْمَطَابِخِ حَتَّى أَتَى بِئْرَ الصَّلَاةِ وَهُوَ فِي إِزَارٍ مُلْتَحِفٌ بِهِ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيِ الظُّهْرِ أَوِ الْعَصْرِ وَخَالَفَ بَيْنَ طَرَفَيْهِ»
